's entire movie is the fusion of "personal trivial matters" and "national matters". Everyone's little things reflect the country's major events, and everyone is inseparable from the background of the country's prosperity. The whole film focuses on small people, and uses a small way to unfold the story of each person in their own life and country. Seven stories and seven directors, from different perspectives, show major events of historical significance since the founding of New China.
Secondly, from the perspective of the script, "Eve" is the most polished one. The early stage dilemma setting and the later stage incentive events are very reasonable, while the foreshadowing is buried and shaken very smoothly. For example, the clues of Lin Zhiyuan's fear of heights, played by Huang Bo, are hidden very stably, which will not make people feel abrupt and difficult to ignore. . The multiple front and back echoes make this short film look more complete, and every shot is not wasted. For example, Ouhao uses a loudspeaker on the roof of the building twice to call for things. The lens language of the whole movie from the lens is also very classic and retro, including the last set of shots that climbed the flagpole alone, which played very well. Secondly, from the perspective of the overall structure and script, it is a typical and well-organized classicist film. For the academic Guanhu, its maturity and completion are now a model of short films.
Furthermore, the big events in this story are particularly heavyweight. The characters and events are very closely combined, and the director’s narrative rhythm is particularly well grasped, so it is the most relevant. At the beginning of the movie, it hits like a sledgehammer. The hearts of the audience. A rigorous and torturous engineer, a rough and impatient officer, a cute and clever apprentice, a proud and passionate trumpeter (this gentleman has a super-upright face, as if he played Chen Can in "Fang Hua"), simple The selfless masses of the people, coupled with the special tension of the previous night, are particularly contagious. A country was born on this ordinary night, born with the support and love of the people.
At the end of the short film, all the tricky contributions are attributed to the people’s sea. Although the theme is special, it is natural, majestic and not blunt. When the audience sees the end of the story, the actors are integrated into the real historical video, as if they have also witnessed the birth of a real great country, and they feel a sense of shared fate with the motherland in their hearts. This experience is very moving. The whole is using a dull narrative method to show a magnificent history. In that accident, the base leader’s self-accountability for "unknown names", the seemingly plain ward of the hospital, there has been no movement on the street. The stock market is plain, and a seemingly common "finding object" story on the bus.
When the protagonist was about to take off his mask, he was suddenly interrupted by the shocking sound of gongs and drums. The transitional technique of sublimating small emotions into big feelings without giving you a breath for a second was shocking. Disappearing in the flow of people, let this relationship freeze in the 10 minutes of dialogue on the bus. This way of going from big to small, then from small to big, and finally back to the individual, completely gives the audience an immersive feeling. This historical event, which was originally only military personnel and scientists, can be affected by hundreds of millions. An ordinary person has "empathy".
Finally, this story is the one I cried the most among the seven short films in this movie. It happened more than a dozen hours before the founding of the country on the timeline. My motherland, everything starts from this moment. I’m moved by not acting and thinking about it, especially since it is adapted from real events. This persuasive leverage makes you believe that there really were such a group of people in that place at that time. , Working hard for the birth of the motherland. I saw a netizen say that this story is too exaggerated, and I feel very uncomfortable. I think this story should not be questioned, because at that time, that era, there were really so many people desperately looking forward to the prosperity of this country.
