I was watching the end, a scene that brought back my memory. I have seen this scene, used it as a poster for this film, and I have read relevant film reviews. Forgotten by me, but because I met again, I remembered in a trance.
Vietnamese video. I just remember one Chen Yingxiong, about his trilogy, I always wanted to watch it, but I couldn't get it. When I opened it up, it turned out that it was not Chen Yingxiong's film.
A tricycle driver, a prostitute; a girl who sells white lotus, an old man who writes poetry; a little boy who sells groceries, and a younger girl living on the streets. Originally unrelated strangers, the director interspersed their stories and told them.
The coachman who lives at the bottom. He is kind and sincere. When waiting for business, he would always take out the yellowed novel and read it. Always speak in the calmest tone. He fell in love with Lian, a prostitute who returned every night. So the guard was at the door of the star-rated hotel, not anxious, not excited, just plain. Women always wear heavy makeup and ask him casually: Do you have a cigarette? Of course he didn't. So she said, you must not drink alcohol. No smoking or drinking, what are you doing? He didn't make a sound. In hot weather, the woman said she wanted to live in an air-conditioned room and blow for a night. Later, he asked the woman's price, 50 yuan. He wins the tricycle race. That night, he was still waiting for the woman at the door of the hotel. The woman ignored him, saying that she would not want to ride in his car in the future. He suddenly said that I have 50 yuan. In the hotel room, he took out a box and gave it to the woman. Say, I wish you could wear it without makeup. It was a plain white dress, the woman was lying on the bed wearing it, and he said I just want to watch you rest. that is it. The life a woman wants may not be to create happiness with a tricycle driver, and she knows, she's a prostitute. Avoid and stop living as a prostitute. He found her and said that your meaning in my heart is different, and I want to spend another night with you. She refused. After closing the door, the man heard a strange sound. She fell to the ground, looking at him weakly.
The man gently touched the woman's bare back with his hands, poured medicated oil, and scraped her. All in all, it's all right. Later, he used a tricycle to take her to a forest with scattered red flowers, untied her red blindfold, handed her the shabby book, and said: Now you can look at the world in an upright manner.
Yes, this is the scene. Remind me.
Picking woman. She was just hired to collect lotus, and then picked it up to sell in the market. Ms. Du, her employer, is an old man who has talent but can't get out of the door all his life. A leprosy in his youth robbed him of his appearance, and from then on he only hid in his room.
The song that the woman hummed inadvertently in the harvest reminded him of his youth. In the dark night, in the dim room, he met her and asked her to sing that song again. Later, the woman stepped into his room again and talked about his poems. She said she was willing to serve him with her own hands and take notes for him. She still sells white lotuses, but there are a lot of plastic flowers on the market. The old man was bedridden due to illness, and she came to visit. He said that it was because of her singing that he regained his mood, and that her singing accompanied him to die in the end.
After he died, he dragged someone down to give her something. There are pictures of him at the age of 23, a handsome young man, and a collection of his poems. The next person told her that she could make any request. She said only one thing. So I saw that scene. The young woman rowed the boat and threw the white lotus into the river, covering the entire water surface. Then she smiles.
A little boy named Woody always puts on a raincoat on rainy days, hangs up his small cargo box and waits for guests at the door of the hotel or bar. His eyes were also seduced, by the bright people, by the chandeliers in the hotel lobby. He follows the guests into the bar, but loses his suitcase. So he began to wander, and began to search. The vile man pushed him out the door and said don't come back if you can't find the box.
On rainy days, he still wears that raincoat. Look for the man who once gave him a drink anywhere. He meets a homeless girl even younger than him. On a rainy day, the girl handed him half a piece of dry bread. Finally, he found the man, only to find that the man hadn't touched his suitcase. He has no purpose. On a rainy day, he was playing football with a group of boys his age, and the ball rolled into the alley, only to find his trunk lying on top of the sleeping drunk. He got it back and stopped playing with them. The girl came running from the opposite side, and they walked forward side by side.
It turns out that being satisfied is so easy. The ordinary life of ordinary people. Maybe suffering, maybe struggling, but it's just a moment of confusion. Don't sigh, don't feel sorry for yourself.
Finally, I found that I can still see the most perfect ending in the movie.
