The new movie "Sherlock on the Plains" released in December is very interesting, I recommend everyone to see it. It is very niche, and the cost of shooting is relatively low, but good-looking movies and ugly movies have nothing to do with money in essence. Can the crew of "Two Tigers" afford Zhao Wei and Ge You, can they have no money? However, not good-looking is not good-looking.
filming is related to talents and life cognition. Especially the latter, in our era of impetuous emphasis on "money, money, money", it is really too difficult, even the screenwriter and director themselves can't stand it. Who doesn't like more money? Who can value people without money? The popular "Ode to Joy" in the past two years is a classic example. Can the screenwriter really appreciate Fan Shengmei? I look down on it from the bottom of my heart. What is around "Fan Shengmei", a family like a drug addict, her vanity from the outside to the inside, even her "righteousness" stems from vanity and recognition, no money , Then you must be in your native family, and then you have a problem with your personality. However, the public comments of the entire series tend to be biased towards the fact that Andy and Qu Xiaogang wrote by rich women, but Fan Shengmei is true. Is this really true? This reminds me of a friend of mine who is a director. He graduated from a prestigious foreign school, and he was in contact with what kind of "peripheral girls hook up with the rich second generation". Once he chatted with me and he said that you are actually pretty good. Self-reliance, I think girls from small county towns are pretty good if they don't sell them! This is also his "objective perception", but is this true? The girls from the small county town, how many are really on sale? Ninety percent of girls are self-reliant and live a very simple life. On the contrary, many girls from good backgrounds in colleges and universities are also doing aided dating, aren't they? How can this be equal? During the years of rapid social and economic development, our literary works began to not write about the poor, and our readers were not willing to read the chapters of the poor. They were impatient to see it. Who would be patient with Fan Shengmei? Even if we ourselves are poor, we have to hurry up and get rid of this group. In the past ten years or so, we have never seen a TV series like "The Happy Life of Poor Mouth Zhang Damin" which is about the poor and is still broadcast. The quality of this TV series is that Zhang Damin's life difficulties do not hinder his true happiness, and the screenwriter is really interested in his life. And our people's first thought when seeing Zhang Damin is: What? You don't even have a house, are you still silly? Where's your mom? You still live happily, do you have a face? Of course, some works are decency and polite, just pretend to make the poor great and kind to death, sacrificing their personality, such as the "migrant workers" and "clean aunts" in the Spring Festival Gala sketch, which is called a noble selflessness. This kind of "polite" is actually just another form of "look down". It's like being particularly affectionate to poor relatives. The reason for being affectionate and polite is to show that you have a good culture and emphasizing that you have compassion. So, when I saw "Sherlock on the Plain" in the theater, I was very happy. This is a film that takes the countryside and low-level people in a normal way. "Normal" view, you are an individual, he is also an individual, not malicious slander, nor special praise, this is a kind of respect. The movie tells the ridiculous story of two farmers Chaoying and Zhanyi breaking a car accident. Their friend was hit by a car and went to the hospital, but the owner escaped. The two farmers wanted to solve the case. Some people bear the expensive medical bills. Of course, the case was not solved in the end, just like life itself, not every question has an answer, and the way they solved the case is so absurd and clumsy. But it is in this kind of "absurd and clumsy" that the movie captures the romance of the little people. I like the romance of this movie very much. "Sherlock on the Plain", the reason why I went to make this movie is because of the title. Sherlock can be such a fashionable, poisonous and gentleman.
But he can also be like this: shirtless in the countryside, bluffing, or taciturn.
Everyone can be Sherlock, can't they? Who stipulated that Sherlock must be a fashionable and sophisticated gentleman? The wind hasn't moved, the flag hasn't moved, but the heart is moving. The world distinguishes matter and appearance, but it has not distinguished between human qualities and happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. When we are happy, everyone laughs, and when we are sad, we all cry. We make the distinction ourselves, right? Chaoying sold the animals and wanted to renovate the old house. The old house was leaking, and it was raining to use a pile of pots and buckets to stop the water. Everyone persuaded him that you have to think clearly, these hundreds of thousands of dollars, save it for the elderly, what is it to spread on this house. But this taciturn country man is really a waveMan, he promised his dead wife to let her live in a good house, so there was a goldfish on the roof. This kind of romance is not less shabby than 999 roses. The goldfish on the roof, everyone's lively life, whether he is poor or rich.
Of course, directors born in this era also have this kind of confusion. There is a scene in the film where Chaoying goes to negotiate with Fan Zong, a model entrepreneur, because he doesn't have a car, so he rides on his handsome tall horse. This scene was very romantic, like a western cowboy film, a tall horse, a silent man, but when the horse and Mr. Fan’s car met, there was another kind of bewilderment and funny.
demolished the original house and built a new residence. In this "demolition" process, the film gave a lot of close-ups, which is probably also a kind of thinking. What did we push down, and what we built. In recent years, the changes in society and the times have been so great that people will of course feel confused when they are among them. You are at a loss, I am at a loss, no one is not at a loss. Shen Congwen talked about his Xiangxi. He saw the people who worked hard to spend their lives on the boat, and he was moved by tears in his heart, and finally understood that the meaning of life for these people is living itself. In fact, it is not only the life meaning of people who are struggling for life is to live themselves, but everyone's life is like this. In the film, Zhanyi wanted to put the bamboo tube into the pipe, but it was always impossible to put it in. Then the farmer said a piece of joke. He said that he can't be forced, because he can't get him in when he gets older, really. I saw there, silly silly. Yes. One day, your breasts will droop, and you will no longer be hardened. No one can escape this process of life.
