, which is not uncommon. What do you guys look at this year?
depends on whether the actors are popular or not, whether the director has a famous name, and how much publicity is done...
In this way, those good movies that have no famous actors, no famous directors, and no money for publicity will be quietly killed. The buried one is clean.
However, Brother Hippo is really not convinced.
Today, I still want to shout for it.
"Sherlock on the Plain"
this movie, Hippo Brother watched twice.
was surprised the first time, full of joy like digging into a treasure.
went to see it with friends for the second time, the laughter still remained, and I was moved.
Most of the rural themes of movies are either repressive and satirical, or are miserable to earn tears.
But this movie is different, it gives people a relaxed and comfortable look.
The whole process of watching the movie, the laughter was constant and very cheerful. Director
is a newcomer, Xu Lei.
This is his first work.
His story happened in his hometown, Hebei. The hero of the
story is his father, and the supporting role is his father's friend and his mother.
even the names of the characters in the film are the real names of these amateur actors.
can be said that this is a natural "wild" movie.
But after watching the whole movie, the authentic performances of the amateur actors not only didn't make people act out, but made people feel more real and kind. The high degree of completion of the
film makes it hard for you to believe that this is a new director's debut.
In short, Douban's 7.8 score will only be low, never falsely high.
China, Hebei.
Farmer Chaoying sold his cattle and plans to use the money to build a new house. This is his long wish.
In rural areas, the uncles who are a bit skilled in building new houses generally don't ask the construction team to find a few old buddies for help. Building houses is not a problem.
No, Chaoying found Zhanyi, Shuhe and other old buddies.
However, in an accident, Shuhe was in a car accident on his way out and was unconscious.
It stands to reason that the accident has nothing to do with Chaoying.
However, the accident happened because people helped you build the house. Can you leave it alone?
At this time, two choices are placed in front of the Super League.
called the police and caught the perpetrator, but in this way he could not get medical reimbursement, and he had to help Shuhe pay for the hospitalization.
doesn't call the police, so I can save a little money, but the perpetrators get away with it.
Everyone persuaded the Super League to do more than less, and take medical reimbursement, which will cost little.
However, Chaoying felt that it was too useless.
Shuhe was hit for nothing, and he allowed the murderer to go unpunished in order to spend less. This is not the reason.
So Shuhe went to call the police.
However, there was no surveillance, no witnesses, and third, the evidence at the scene was washed away by rain. The
police said that this case is difficult to handle. The
incident is here, and it's so terrible.
was such a bad start, which triggered a humorous and ridiculous investigation trip. As a genre film,
plays a big role in black humor, absurd plots, and laughs one after another.
The police can't find anyone? Yes, then go to battle by yourself.
Chaoying and Zhanyi, the two old brothers, become country detectives, vowing to find the perpetrator for Shuhe.
is a super-British person. He doesn't talk much. He looks rather dull, but he has an idea in his heart.
What he does, he pursues the rationale in his heart. What about
? A rough man.
is impatient, and occasionally speaks big words, and loves to show the limelight when things happen.
One face is cold and warm, and the other is hot inside and out to explode. Although the
combination is quite magical, they have the chivalrous spirits and guts that belong to the rural people.
Shuhe was in a car accident, and Chaoying didn't pay any money, but he would rather stop the construction of the new house and give the money.
Zhanyi is even more indifferent to this mess, but he thinks he shouldn’t let ChaoyingCarry this mess alone.
According to the location of the accident, they are cost-effective, and they can basically determine where the accident vehicle came from.
Then, riding a tricycle, they crossed the city and the countryside.
is magnificent and full of energy.
China's rural ecology and the face of rural people are clearly revealed along with the footprints of the rural detectives.
China is a society of personal love. I don't know when
started, when everyone mentioned the "human relationship society", it was demeaning, ironic, as if it had no meaning.
But, is "favor" really useless, terrible?
Chaoying and Zhanyi are the most typical existences in the human relationship society. They have the disadvantages of the "human relationship society" and the cuteness of the "human relationship society".
For example, in order to find the vehicle that caused the accident, they want to call the monitoring at the door of the grain and oil store.
However, the boss found it troublesome and did not agree.
At this time, a few phone calls are over.
"Zhuzi, do you know the owner of this grain shop?"
"Erkui, you come to your second girl's house."
But when you get to the city, things are not easy.
Zhanyi's concept, "This is not the Public Security Bureau, why can't you be allowed in?"

turned around, Zhanyi was still angry, and involuntarily coughed up sputum. As soon as
received the fine, he immediately followed, waiting for Zhanyi to spit out the sputum in his mouth to be fined.
Zhan Yilai, anxious to be wise, poses extremely coquettishly, and spit out the sputum on his hands.
then put himself a mousse with his hands. Along the way after

watch this scene again.
What is Zhanyi doing in the sunflower like a landscape painting?
Yes, he is fertilizing the sunflower.
is artificial, pure and natural, without additives... There is a plot in the
film. In order to pay Shuhe hospital fees, Chaoying emptied the family and had to sell the horses in the family. Before
sold the horse, he reluctantly said to the buyer, "This horse is righteous." The buyer of
said, "How much is righteousness worth now?" Righteousness of
is worthless to the buyer.
, however, is more important than nothing to Super England.
You see, he obviously sold the horses, but when he learned that the buyer was a butcher, he would rather post a few hundred dollars to buy the horses back.
His principles of behavior are extremely ridiculous and absurd in the eyes of others.
For example, he once thought he had caught the owner of the car that caused the accident.
The opponent's bumper, license plate number and the deleted dash cam all let Chaoying identify him as the perpetrator.
However, there is no substantive evidence, and there is no way for people to plead guilty.
accidentally hit, Chaoying found evidence of the owner's derailment on the driving recorder.
used the derailed photos of the owner and Xiao San to threaten him to pay for Shuhe's medical expenses, which is a way. The owner of the
car is a rich local businessman with money, which is nothing to him.
Both sides agreed on the price, but Chaoying discovered that this person was not the owner of the car involved. The owner of
said, you have to ask for this money, don’t worry about me. What about
Super England? Do you want to...The director Xu Lei of
has a saying, “Many movies that show rural areas are viewed with a modern civilization. It feels particularly ignorant.”
In the movie, the relationship between the countryside and the city is not opposite, each has its own cuteness. And drawbacks.
Rural people, rough, clumsy, but simple, have their own set of "death principles", but they look down on themselves when talking about money.
City, civilized, exquisite, but indifferent, believing in things that can be solved with money is not a thing.
When watching this movie, Brother Hippo remembered many people and things in his hometown.
In this materialistic world, they always seem to be doing strange and thankless things.
is just like the super British in the film, taking all of Shuhe's medical expenses on himself, and also delusional to find the perpetrator.
sounds like it really makes people laugh.
But, savoring the persistence and benevolence, isn't it worth moving?
Ma Weidu said: "Sherlock on the Plain" has a kind of rivers and lakes, the most primitive rivers and lakes.
Many times, we have ignored this kind of quack.
is ashamed to say that although Brother Hippo grew up in the countryside, he really didn't feel the land seriously.
At the end of the movie, Shuhe, Chaoying and Zhanyi who were discharged from the hospital went to the fields.
Watermelon, corn... They chatted about the growth of various crops and looked forward to the harvest in the coming year.
At that moment, Brother Hippo suddenly understood their romance. It was also at this moment for
, and suddenly understood why even though grandma was old, she still missed that cropland.
rooted in the soil, the savage, tenacious growth force, simple but powerful, and full of vitality.
Now speaking of the countryside, it seems to be a place abandoned by the times.
However, in that forgotten place, there are still a group of people living a vibrant life.
They stick to their old principles and love the land from the bottom of their hearts. When
mentions "earth flavor", everyone thinks it is vulgar and has no taste.
But in this movie, that piece of countryside presents an unprecedented and unparalleled romance.

Who can remain unmoved?
Many people were moved to tears after watching this movie.
is not just the plot itself.
lies in the kind of true interpretation, which can always evoke your softest feelings about the countryside.
After all, the actors in the movie are peasants in real life. Director
’s father, Chaoying said, “I don’t think I’m acting, I’m acting myself.” Director
’s mother, who plays Shuhe’s younger sister in the film, said to the director:
"You sell this film." I don’t think it’s okay if you don’t go out. After all, you made a movie for your dad. You can watch it when he gets old, and you can watch his grandfather made a movie when you have children.”
What troubles the director is that when you encounter a scene that they don't understand, you can't convince them. They just don't act and stay stuck there. Isn't this style of
the super-ying and Zhanyi in the movie?
