I recently watched a movie "Still Water City" starring Matt Damon. I just clicked it at random, and I didn't like it immediately. I didn't expect to finish it and I liked it more.
"Still Water City-STILLWATER" mainly discusses the family relationship of a father and daughter, and slowly tastes the taste of real life in this small literary film. Here I mainly talk about the cognitive process of the father and daughter. It is not a real film review. I don’t understand the acting, script, camera, plot advancement, etc. If you want to watch film reviews, please go out and turn left and right.
From a father's point of view, Matt Damon's image of a capable super agent is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people that even after gaining weight and getting greasy, it takes a while to recognize the image of a middle-aged white blue-collar character in a beautiful country in the film, and the male protagonist is a man with legal guns , Praying before meals, drilling workers who will vote for Brother Jianguo (the stereotype given by the question of the heroine's girlfriend). Such a beautiful American, middle-aged, man, and father is faced with rescuing a daughter whose Arab girlfriend was murdered by the final judgment in a foreign land (France, Marseille) that cannot speak the language. Under this ultimate setting, what should a father do?
Any art is either warmer or crueler than reality.
The screenwriter gave the father a drama opportunity, an accidental act of love, brought the father a little angel who lacked a father, a chance to grow up with the girl (a substitute daughter) again, he entered a family and took on the responsibility of the father , pick up the girl day after day, this is also the last chance for the father and daughter in the movie to redeem.
He went through a radical approach to find the real suspect, and it fell short the first time. For the second time, after the tempering of life and self-growth, he was close to success; but without the previous love and dedication, he almost made a bigger mistake; he even harmed a family and Maya. And he accidentally found that his daughter was in prison. The culprit may be her daughter, but the root cause is himself.
On the other hand, because of the absence of her father since she was a child, her daughter came to a complicated city like Marseille, and she came to a place farthest away from her father she could imagine to go to university, because of him, he was a fuckup, because of him, her Her own lonely situation after her mother's death (impression); because of him, her chance to clear her name is gone. But the daughter knew in her heart that the only person she could rely on was the father who had disrupted her life. This is the same as in reality. The children feel that all problems are caused by their parents, but they have no way of knowing what is right or wrong in their own lives. On the one hand, neither real life nor literary works can be changed. The only people who have been visiting her for several years after imprisonment are relatives. No one else; if her father hadn't always believed in her, each one of her letters would help him deliver it.
In the last few shots of the French part of the film, the girl Maya hugs the "father" tightly as Matt Damon is about to leave, and both shed tears as they had to deal with their emotions. In contrast, the father and daughter in the play, if the daughter and the father are together and rely on each other, and the daughter's unkind experience is a vent in front of the father, the healing under the family will not have the "still water city" gold necklace buyer thugs behind. The story of manslaughter by teaching his girlfriend a lesson; the father will not try his best to save his daughter in the end, so as to make up for the regret in his heart.
Finally, in the confrontation between the father and daughter, the daughter asked: "Do you think I am a monster?" The father replied: "No, you are my babygirl". The father and daughter hugged in tears, and the daughter, on behalf of the screenwriter, asked, "What's wrong with us?" Both father and daughter were full of problems. The father had already lost his daughter because of work or belief, and the other was because of his own problems. Dissatisfaction and selfishness lead to the death of the girl. After a baptism of cruel life, father and daughter find an opportunity in Marseille and start a peaceful life again after a few years.
After so much ordeal in my point of view, the father realizes the damage he has caused in the absence of his daughter growing up and tries to make up for it; the daughter realizes that confrontation and escape cannot survive in the cruel real life, she finds trust in family. But they have paid too much. The most important thing is that the father and daughter realize that the other person is an individual through the real society, and his/her life goals are clear from the beginning. They need serious life and study, reflection and blood and tears. In the end, father and daughter are saved in the film, but they have lost a lot.
Movies always have to be reunited before anyone can watch them. In real reality, not many people can have this opportunity. In reality, many people miss it and it is the end. English STILL has the meaning of quiet, but let me misunderstand that as an adverb, STILL has the meaning of "still, still", then it is also possible to translate it into "the city of stillness", because in reality, the previous generation and the next generation often cannot understand each other. , cycle after generation.
This love can be remembered, life is hard
It was just that the water was still flowing.
