Maybe it's because every June and July, the continuous rainy season in the south is always incessant. When people talk about the south, the words "feminine, damp, and mysterious" are always unavoidable. "The Gathering at the Southern Station" was filmed in the surrounding towns of Wuhan. Wuhan is known as the thoroughfare of nine provinces. Perhaps because of its unique geographical conditions, one side's soil and water support the other's people, and batches of talents have sprung up. The title of "Head Bird, Earthly Hubei Guy" is well known all over the country, and the process of the characters fighting wits and courage in the plot explains this title vividly.

At the beginning of the film, the night and the rain, wounds and red lips, the collision of dark and bright colors, the collision of gloomy and soft emotions. Gui Lunmei's soft "kidnapper" brought me, a foreigner who has lived in Wuhan for many years, into the screen. When I listen to Wuhan dialect on weekdays, I always feel a lot of energy. When the two sides communicate, whoever has a lower volume seems to be at a disadvantage. At the end of the conversation, it is impossible to know whether the two sides are quarreling or chatting. Gui Lunmei's Wuhan dialect was uncharacteristically soft, with a hint of dust mixed in it, as if a cotton swab slowly circled around the pinna during ear picking, and finally touched the cochlea lightly.

As a new first-tier city, Wuhan's economy is developing rapidly, the city is constantly expanding to the periphery, talents are constantly pouring into the city center, and housing prices are also rising rapidly with the development of the city. As a result, young people who have no ability and no knowledge are forced to be forced by high housing prices. shoved to the edge of the city. In the film, there is a party in the basement. After the bloody battle, the hotel owner complained to Marco why he made such a big commotion. Brother Ma said, "Didn't I say that the business is closed during the meeting?" "Now the economic situation is so bad, it is difficult to do business." The loss of personnel at the urban border is serious, and lack of ability means there is no way out. "Class solidification" is placed on This is the perfect place. Those idle people who stay here have to make a living. Stealing battery cars and motorcycles has become their source of income. The reward of 300,000 yuan far exceeds their own value. This huge number is beyond their reach. This is why Zhou Zenong, after being wanted by a reward, did not live an incognito escape life, but chose to be reported by his wife. Let her get a bounty, and the 300,000 is enough to let her wife get out of the quagmire of life and live a fairly ideal life.

The English name of the movie "The Wild Goose Lake", "Wild Goose Lake". The entry point and turning point of the plot happened here many times. There is quite a kind of "earthy Maldives" prepared for men who have become rich by accident and have no way to squander their money, so they have to choose an entertainment and leisure club. The creed is, "As long as there is a beach in your heart, Maldives is everywhere." There are not only beach chairs, parasols, but also supporting services for accompanying swimmers. "Wild Goose Lake" is more like a self-deceiving carnival of marginalized groups, where absurdity has become commonplace.

In the film, the director has foreshadowed in many details. Zhou Zenong and Liu Ai'ai are in the waiting room of the railway station. Liu Ai'ai puts the bag on the table, and a metal tag hangs on the bag. On the tag, there is a sea swallow soaring above the sea. Zhou Zenong was in the shabby hut after being shot. Looking at the poster on the wall, he imagined that the plane was flying over the blue sky, and raised his pistol at it. Both the sea and the sky are boundless existences, they are the freedom that Zhou Zenong longs for, and the pistol means power, force and unyielding. It was the catalyst for Zhou Zenong's determination to live.

"Welcome, the winner is in the end", the slogan that Liu Aiai saw in the cramped merchants when she was looking for Yang Shujun. Welcome means "beginning", beginning and end, two diametrically opposed words are put together. Zhou Zenong's behavioral motives almost all come from his lover Yang Shujun, who is his origin and his end. The movie starts with Zhou Zenong's "The Last", and the flashback technique also reflects the slogan that Liu Ai'ai saw. The progress of the film's plot has always been "the mantis catches the cicada and the oriole behind", until the moment the film ends, no one knows who the real winner is.

Speaking of character creation, Gui Lunmei vividly interprets the agility, cowardice, and timidity of the dusty woman, her cramped pace, restrained demeanor, and a sound of "abductee" sounds ambiguous but has an inexplicable sense of distance, she is like The smooth loach, the tighter you squeeze, the faster it slips. Playing as a pig and eating a tiger, as soon as his eyes rolled, the little abacus in his heart had been pulled many times. Hu Ge, a well-known actor, but he can't think of any representative movies for him. In "Hello, Flower", he tried a little knife, but he didn't show any edge. There is a sense that the rich young master's family has to become a marginalized group in the middle of the fall.

Square dance with fluorescent shoes, gunfight in the tube tower, chase at the zoo, the speeding head, and the scarlet umbrella blooming through the abdomen, the movie style is more prominent than the plot, and the violent aesthetics is placed in the wet southern town, with a strange beauty It makes the audience even more memorable.
