Chaoge Star Entertainment, take you to explore different entertainment! Hello fellow readers!
Two days ago, a friend recommended Zhang Yimou's movie "Alive" to the editor.
The little demon in "Alive" has seen the original, but the movie is the first time. After watching the movie, the shock is not lost to the original. It is not an exaggeration to say that
is the pinnacle of Zhang Yimou. The
film has been adapted a lot on the basis of the original, but the main theme and connotation have not changed. This movie was also released in 1994, so 1994 was really the pinnacle of master's talent, and it was also the year when Jiang Lang's talent was exhausted. Incidentally, Lu Wei, the screenwriter of the movie, is also a top domestic screenwriter.
Xu Fugui is a typical prodigal, proficient in sampling, eating, drinking, and gambling. He usually likes gambling, but his gambling skills are not very good.
When keeping accounts, the rich and honorable only said, "During this period, I owe a lot of accounts, and I have made great progress in writing." Losing money and wealth don't care. By the way, play shadow puppetry and sing on stage.
He also knew that he was a waste. But his father, Mr. Xu, was even more prodigal than rich when he was young. In the words of wealth and honor, it means "I don't have a bastard."
Wealth has a well-knowing wife Jiazhen and daughter. It's just that the gambling problem can't be changed.
often gambles with wealth and honour is a man named Long Er (played by Ni Dahong), who is humble and kind on the surface, but he feels bad. One day riches and dignity kept accounts as usual, but this time he lost the only property house in the family, and what Longer wanted was the riches’ house.
Just hit her body with a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and another thunderbolt followed. Jiazhen took Fengxia at the gate of the casino and waited for her wealth. She would return to her mother's house as soon as she knew the wealth.
came to Fugui's house to be accountable. Fugui's father finished the formalities and wanted to fight Fugui but died in a hurry, and his mother moved out of the yard with all the remaining belongings and disease.
Wealth changed from a young master to a pauper overnight. The pampered rich and wealthy for half a lifetime knew how to make money and survive, and wanted to be a seller, but she didn't know how to open her mouth except standing in the street.
A year has passed and Jiazhen is back. Jiazhen is a good woman. It is the blessing of previous life to marry her for wealth and honor.
When she came back, she wanted to live with the rich and the wealthy. No matter how hard she was, Jiazhen would be willing to accompany the wealth and wealth. Wealthy is full of hope for life, and wants to do small business to support his family.
lowered his face to ask for Long Er to borrow money. Long Er rescued the emergency but did not save the poor, but gave the rich and the rich the shadow puppet equipment used by the class owner. The inferior gadgets that he used to look down on have now become his job to make money and support his family. The richness in the original
is based on farming to support the family. The adaptation of the screenwriter is more in line with the art of the film. The man-operated art of shadow puppetry is used to show the protagonist's involuntary life for the second half of his life.
Wealth and honour lead the theater troupe to perform and sing music. Jiazhen takes care of her old mother and children at home. Although she is poor, she is very happy.
But it was the 1940s of the twentieth century. I didn’t learn history and I knew what it was like at that time. There was no place for home.
The shadow play sang gifted men and beautiful ladies, and the bayonet stabbed in. Fugui and Chunsheng were arrested by the Kuomintang to become strong men.
There is only one idea of wealth and honor to live, to go back to see his wife and children alive, and to live well after returning.
After the war, wealthy and wealthy came home. Jiazhen brought two children to deliver hot water to the residents. Although the family was reunited, her daughter Fengxia became deaf and mute because of an illness, but she was still a dumb person. Children with innocent smiles.
A few years ago, Long Er was sentenced to death because he wanted to requisition his house. He refused to return it and burned it. Fortune went to the scene to watch the execution. When the gun fired, Fortune was almost scared to death.
In the 1950s, there was wave after wave of craze movement, and the wealthy and wealthy families lived carefully under the wave.
One day Youqing was carried home covered in blood, and he left. It turned out that You Qing fell asleep while standing on a wall because he was too trapped, and the district head accidentally crushed him to death when reversing (In the original work, You Qing was drained of blood while donating blood to the district head’s house and died).
Youqing grew up with Jiazhen to deliver water from house to house, and went to school to do all kinds of farming work every day. This time he can finally rest well.
’s only son is dead.Feel despair once. The district chief who killed his son was his childhood friend, Chunsheng who was captured by the Kuomintang with him. Another ten years have passed since the 1960s. Feng Xia has reached the age of marrying. Mayor Niu introduced her to Wan Erxi, who has the same shortcomings as Feng Xia. He is a lame man (the original is Crooked Neck).
But Erxi walked around Fugui's house, glanced at Feng Xia and left. The two of them thought he thought he was poor at home and didn't like Feng Xia, and they blamed themselves.
But after a few days, Erxi took a large group of people to decorate the wealthy house inside and outside, and also painted portraits at home with Fengxia. Erxi is just not good at words and is used to using practical actions. Knowing that Feng Xia's life is hard, in order to make her happy on the day of her wedding, she marries her home with great beauty.
is not in celebration, but Fengxia can marry a good man, the old couple's wish is also considered fulfilled.
But the good times did not last long. Feng Xia had an accident when she gave birth. Everything was fine, but she suddenly bleeds after giving birth, and the doctors at the time were... .
Fengxia was bleeding to death under the eyes of her father, mother, and husband. Because she was deaf and mute, she was so painful that she couldn't make her voice sound, and she really didn’t know how to describe her pain. Kind of empathy.
In a blink of an eye, Fengxia's child, Mantou, has grown up. Fugui said that Mantou has grown up and he wants to make a car and airplane. Looking forward to a bright future in the new era. The
movie chose a more tender ending, which may be more in line with the prosperity of 1994, but it is not as good as the original work in terms of the impact of dramatic art.
After Fengxia died, Jiazhen left and Erxi Mantou died. Only rich and honorable and a cow depend on each other for their lives, still living strong.
"Alive" does have accusations against the times, as well as the uncontrollable but irresistible fate of the people at the bottom. But it is more about national resilience, aligning personal destiny with the destiny of the nation-state.
"Living" can be loved by people all over the world, and it has also been translated into various languages. The little demon thinks that maybe it is his simple sentence, "It is better to live than to die." This is not a derogatory meaning. Ambitious, but survived step by step in the fate of the times, despair and sadness, and never gave up the idea of living.
"Living" is a belief that touches the deepest values of people's hearts.
"alive" and "alive". The easiest and hardest "to live".
