The place of promise on the other side of the cloud

Recently, I watched the movie "The Other Side of the Cloud, the Place of Promise" drawn by Japanese painter Makoto Shinkai. Before that, I had always been dismissive of this type of painter, because the style of painting was not to my taste, it was extremely simple. The male and female protagonists are neither handsome nor beauties, so I didn't take the movie that came with "Dongxin" into my heart. I just heard it mentioned by a pervert, and I just glanced at it. Until I turned it out again a few days ago, I was determined to look good and ugly, and I must read it, otherwise it would not be worth it.

It begins with the monologue of the hero, Hiroshi: "'I always feel like I'm going to lose something,' she said." Then he entered the subway station and got on the car leading to Ezo Island. When he came to the prairie of Ezo, a phantom appeared in front of him. He saw the self-made plane that he had brought Sayuri to the tower flying on the blue sky like a pool of clear water. Sayuri was jumping past him, cheering He exclaimed: "It's really amazing!"... To

be honest, I couldn't tell Takuya and Haoji apart at first, and even thought that Takuya was the protagonist. Later, I found out that there was something wrong with my eyes, and I changed the one with glasses and the other without glasses. is wrong. Fujisawa Hiroshi and Sawato Sayuri are veritable male and female protagonists, and Shirakawa Taku can not say that he is a supporting role, nor can he be said to be the second male lead, just like in the years of youth, you can't say that you are the only one of youth. Master, as the world does not only belong to you.

Why would I be attracted to such a movie with no unexpected plot?

Because of friendship, because of dreams, because of promises.

Friendship, dreams, and appointments are undoubtedly the three most beautiful things in life. Because of friendship, we are no longer alone; because of dreams, we are full of fighting spirit and passion; because of the agreement, we are full of hope for the future.

These three things are also missing in many people, at least among the people I know.

Some people will say, I have a friendship, and everyone will always help me when I need it. I want to say, this is indeed a friendship, and it is indeed precious, but do you have a friendship to achieve the same dream together? Have you ever had the joy of having a shared secret?

Make unremitting efforts to realize the common dream, sweat and laugh under a blue sky to realize the same dream.

And I feel poor, I have no dreams. Many people's dream is to make a lot of money, but I said it's not a dream. It shouldn't be like this. Dreams don't remember any benefits. The process of dreaming is happy...

Then do you have a dream? Do you have a partner with whom you can realize your dreams? The most intimate partner...

I used to regard an appointment as something that could be met but not obtained, just like the love in the mouth of Ye Ying (the global vice president of Kodak). Didn't the ancients say that? Destined to meet each other for thousands of miles, but no chance to know each other on the other side. A contract is a promise in English, which is the same as a promise. Promises are unreliable things, otherwise there would not be so many divorced families and sad scenes of perfidy.

It is not to say that all agreements are not credible. Only when there is a belief in the hearts of both parties to the agreement, even if the agreement is not realized, it will become an eternal agreement - because they have never given up on it. What's more precious than never giving up?

Dreams and promises when we were young are the most beautiful pages in our life. When time is behind our backs and crushed the past, we can always look back at that page of yellowed poems with a smile on the corner of our mouths.


When the afterglow of the setting sun smudges the poems of youth, we see a ray of light. It is memory that opens the door that has been sealed for a long time, and brings bits and pieces of the past to my heart like a clear spring.

Perhaps the city is too noisy and life is too lonely. Whenever I see the beautiful scenery written by famous artists, I can't help but feel melancholy.

In Ji Xianlin's "Clear Pond and Lotus Rhythm", "spring water is overflowing in the pond, green willows are drooping, and a beautiful scenery"; , look at the dark green moving in the mountains - the footprints of the clouds - it is also wandering"; Liu Yong warned his son about the power of nature...

When can such fresh words flow out of my pen?

I have seen this passage once, it is very powerful:

The charm of this literature permeates extracurricularly and spreads in life. I love Li Qingzhao Su Dongpo's Song Poems and Li Shangyin Liu Yuxi's Tang poems; I love Wang Guozhen's wise philosophical thinking Zhang Kangkang's proud peony; I love Sha Yexin's witty mocking Lin Yutang, and the romantic Sanmao elegant Xi Murong Fresh Lin Qingxuan... Shu Ting said: "The conquest of Charming Chinese is sometimes a pain that burns all our internal organs, sometimes a piercing cold, and more is a hearty wash and 'I want to ride the wind to go home' The pleasure."

Said so many insignificant things, I don't know why, just like Zhuge Liang said in "Apprenticeship" - I don't know what to say.

Maybe everything should just take its course.

The other side of the cloud, the place of the promise, Haoji and Sayuri have become very beautiful in my heart. They are more handsome than handsome guys and more beautiful than beautiful women. In the words of Kuku Xiaolang, the editor of "Dongxin": "Prettier than handsome. "Although it's a ridiculous statement.

The other side of the cloud, the place of promise, this is the origin of the name of my space now. It represents beauty, dreams and promises.

I want to fly over the sea to see the beautiful scenery on the other side. I once saw that some people said that there are other flowers in the world, it must be beautiful, it represents beauty. Beware of children with dreams who try their best to reach the other side, walk along the strait on the other side, look at this side from there, and look at the water-colored horizon where the sky and the sea meet, it must be unforgettable for a lifetime.

It's just, who will go with me to enjoy the flowers on the other side, who will walk the strait road with me, who will see the water and blue sky with me?

The place of my dreams is illusory. I only hope that God will give me a pair of wings to fly, so that I can fly over thousands of mountains and rivers and fly to a farther future.


Lan's website is called "Water Marks" because the girl is as pure, transparent and fragile as water. In English crystal, she may be called crystal girl.

New Orchid is eternal.


The other side of the cloud, the place of promise, I saw the water and blue sky, it is the holy land of dreams, and the place where the promise is eternal.

Waiting for a certain day, a certain person, can take me across the vast sea, to the promised land...

    what does it mean. . . Who said the OST is ok. . . It's a lot worse than 5cm. The theme is that they lost the agreed place, but they can be together in the end. Maybe it's the price. I can't understand love right now

    Although compared with last year's new work "Star を chasing う子ども", this feature film debut is much more successful in rhythm and narrative, but compared with its most successful "Second Speed ​​5センチメートル", it will be found that it has a great impact on feature films. The control is obviously not as good as the short film. The script of the film is actually not bad, but it's too self-indulgent to be hypocritical and offensive, and I'm tired of watching the youthful threesome of two men and one woman.
