The city of Changchun, in the movie "Don't Tell Her", is an empty glimpse of light

After reading it, I feel that it is a bit tangled to give three or four stars, but three and a half.

Although this "Don't Tell Her" was filmed in Changchun, it can be seen that the director has no intention of digging into the deeper core of Changchun. The director just used the scene of Changchun to tell the story. This story can take place in Changchun or any northern city in China.

In other words, Changchun is an empty glimpse in this film.

After reading the resume of the director of the movie search, I found that at least from the perspective of his resume, this director has nothing to do with Changchun.

After watching this film, I am a little disappointed, but some plots and details can really make people think. For example, some thoughts on how to release emotions and how to express emotions.

But for many ordinary people, this may be quite a luxury, and it is good to be alive. The stress of life makes emotions rough, or even nonexistent at all.

Looking at the director's resume, you can see that the director's own family and the family of the heroine of the story she wrote have a red background. This is understandable.

It's like in the world of Red Mansions, where Baodai thinks about emotional issues every day, the maids and servants certainly can't say that they have no emotions, but they must be thinking more about survival issues.

Speaking of which, I remembered the day before yesterday that I heard an old man in Changchun who often picks up rubbish to help his family tell others about an old man who just passed away. She said, "I don't know if he died in the hospital or at home. If you die in the hospital, how much will it cost? You can die slower in the hospital, with so many injections every day. If you die at home, you can die faster and don’t need to spend any money.”

In recent years in Changchun, more and more elderly people are picking up garbage. So to say that this is the happiest city, I don't believe it.

I originally wanted to write a short review, but the result was that the longer I wrote, the longer the short review word limit was.

Finally, to sum up, the essence of emotional problems is bandwidth problems. If there is not enough bandwidth, there will be no emotional exchange that can be described as "happiness". If a person’s bandwidth is consumed by survival anxiety, the person will become heartless and emotionless, and can only eat and die. From this perspective, the opportunity for all changes lies in the word "bandwidth". If you understand these two words thoroughly, and have decisions and actions, maybe you can change your destiny to some extent, and make yourself and your children become people with emotional life, just like the movie "Don't Tell Her" The director, and the heroine of the story she wrote.
