With the coming of November, the much-anticipated "Weather Children" has finally been released in China.
's promotion of "The Weather Sons" was compared with the highly acclaimed "Your Name" produced by Xin Haicheng three years ago. In this contrast, the two films focused on completely different and were dominated by preconceived notions. Eventually it led to the polarization of the comments on "Weather Children."
Many people who say bad movies have actually failed to see the true meaning of the movie "Weather Children".
Below I will do a simple analysis based on the movie plot, because it involves spoilers, please watch it as appropriate.
"Children of the Weather" tells the story of a young Hougao who ran away from home and a young girl Yang Na who was dependent on her younger brother.
During this trip full of fantasy, Fan Gao met Uncle Keisuke, a sloppy third-rate magazine copywriter, some female college students who could not find their life position, and the cow-dung-head policeman who represented the rules. The main story of
is that a teenager who wants to pursue the light meets a 100% sunny girl who can change the mood of the weather. The two of
work with this special ability and want to change their own destiny, but in this era full of rules, they are no longer in charge of what they are.
Many people said that after watching this movie, they found that the movie was illogical and there were bugs everywhere.
For example, Sunny Girl is so powerful, why did the country not intervene, why Fan Gao always carried a gun, and pointed the gun at people, and did not realize the cost of flooding a place, and Fan Gao didn't make it clear why he ran away from home.
Regarding the above questions, let's explain clearly one by one.
First of all, this is not a movie that looks like this, it is a fairy tale for adults. The adults I'm talking about are not people who have full civil capacity at the age of 18, but children who are fascinated by this hazy world and its colorful scenery, are working-class workers who have just come out of school, and are confused. The fresh graduates are those who keep hitting the wall and get hurt, want to take a nap but find that the huge world has no place for them, or you can say that it is a child who wants to become an adult, an adult who wants to get rid of the shackles, and this It is the audience for this movie. There are many metaphors in the
movie. For example, at the beginning of the movie, the bracelet of Yangcai’s mother on the hospital bed later became the necklace of Yangcai, and when the last two returned from the world in the cloud, the necklace on Yangcai’s neck It's broken, which symbolizes another thing, and it also symbolizes Yang Cai's decision to live for herself, not to be bound by the past. The loss of private guns first mentioned in the
movie refers to guns in the literal sense. Then, when the gun appeared in Fan Gao's hand, the gun here was not a literal gun. It represents the props to resist the rules, the power to resist the rules, so when the child with the gun points to the adult who represents the rules, it means that immature people finally have the qualifications to negotiate with the rules.
living in the current society, we have too many shackles unconsciously, as Fan Gao said, "I can't breathe under the pressure of life on the island".
When we are "the warm-hearted person" among friends, "the gentle person" in the mouth of our confidant, "the well-behaved person" in the eyes of our parents, and the "motivated person" in the comments of our boss .
We can no longer say clearly, whether we are like this, or do not live according to his own population, all this will fall apart. The collapse embarrassed everyone, and I couldn't afford it by default.
What makes you breathless at this moment is these shackles, these inescapable rules.
Obviously, Xin Haicheng's "Children of the Weather" does not want to please everyone. The core idea Xin Haicheng exposed in the movie is not the mainstream sacrifice of the individual to preserve the self.
This is an ordinary fairy tale written for adults, not a movie that tries to make fools cry out. It is destined to only satisfy a part of the regulation, and I am one of those satisfied.
