The joys and sorrows of the little people

​​Fan Wei, played by Du Hongjun, is an ordinary man who lives alone with his son after his divorce from his wife.

And his job is to watch the car, work hard, day after day. He cherishes this job very much, he is responsible and meticulous. Whether it is directing the vehicle to reverse and park, or carefully watching the residents' vehicles there, it can be said that it is dedicated, for fear of the slightest mistake.

His son, Xiaoyu, has a rebellious personality. He always likes to work with Du Hongjun. This makes him very annoyed. In fact, it was the lack of communication between their father and son, and Du Hongjun's blindly strict discipline, also made Xiaoyu feel psychologically uncomfortable.

Du Hongjun likes Xiao Song, the flower shop owner played by Chen Xiaoyi. At the beginning of the movie, the two of them are taking wedding photos. They have put their marriage on the agenda and started to furnish the furniture.

did not expect that the arrival of a person broke his hope, and made him commit a big mistake, and he was sent to prison. This person

is Xiao Song’s ex-husband Liu San, played by Zhao Jun. He was released from prison early. After returning, he repented the divorce agreement he had negotiated with Xiao Song before. He often beat Xiao Song and Du Hongjun, trying to destroy them. Good things for both.

At the beginning, Du Hongjun was blindly tolerant. He wanted his own patience to let Liu San let go. Unexpectedly, his concession only paid for Liu San to become more vigorous, not only beating him, but also his son, even Moved away the wedding furniture prepared in his home and took away their wedding photos.

couldn't bear it, angrily, he picked up the brick, took advantage of Liu San's drunk, went up to beat him up, and sent him to prison.

In the movie, you can see Fan Wei’s acting skills. His research on life is very deep, and the details are well described. Whether it is steps, movements, language, even a wry smile, a melancholy, and a fearful look, they are all like that profound.

Actually, what he wants is not much, just a stable life, a simple job, a solid little life, but this life is not good enough, thinking that all this is caused by Liu San, because of his arrival, Everything about himself was broken, so he cruelly committed the wrong thing.

Father and son love

​​In the movie "July of the Car Watcher", through the joys and sorrows of the little people, you can also feel the touching love between father and son. The

school asked students to donate money to poor students in the west. His son Xiaoyu thought that the children who had been taking care of his good teachers would sacrifice in the northwest, so he took out the stamps he had collected for a long time and prepared to sell them for donation. Love.

didn't expect that the money he had saved up so hard would be snatched away by a few punks. He had to call a few good buddies to fight back together, but he did not expect to be taken away by the police.

After Du Hongjun arrived, he did not understand the actual situation. He was very angry when he saw his son not convinced and contradicting himself. However, he helped his son finish the review and took him home.

Here, we can see that on the one hand, Du Hongjun wants to be a good husband in front of his son and give him a complete home, so he wakes up early in the dark and is busy and busy, buying everything.

On the one hand, his son didn't understand him. He felt that he was incompetent. He only yelled at him and yelled at him instead of going to Liu San. In his heart, he felt sorry for his son.

However, every time he goes out to find Liu San to settle accounts, it's overI couldn't say anything. I wanted to beat Liu San for a while, but every time he came back after being beaten by Liu San.

At this moment, Liu San got even harder and ran to the place where Du Hongjun was looking at the car. While he was not paying attention, he smashed several good cars. The unit asked Du Hongjun to pay for the car, which badly broke him.

At this time, his son Xiaoyu couldn't swallow this breath, so he, who was full of blood, had a hard heart, and went to find Liu San to settle the accounts by himself, to seek justice for his father.

Unexpectedly, Liu San, who was noticed in advance, gave him a beating. Seeing his son's blue nose and face, Du Hongjun finally made the decision.

It can be said that he went to Liu San, on the one hand for Xiao Song, on the other for himself, and on the other for his son Xiaoyu. He wanted his son to see that he was a strong father. At the end of the

movie, he surrendered to the Public Security Bureau, and his son shed tears when he saw his father.

Everything returns to peace

​​At the end of the story, everything returns to peace.

Liu San became a vegetable, and Xiao Song took care of him every day.

son Xiaoyu left home and went to find his mother far away.

Du Hongjun was admitted to prison and accepted labor reform.

As a small person living in the city, Du Hongjun has been working hard to live. He originally wanted to live an ordinary and ordinary life. These small wishes were not realized in the end.

All this is blamed on that Liu San. This scumbag, who has forgotten justice, harmed the Du Hongjun family and Xiao Song. Not only did he not bring a happy marriage to Xiao Song, but it also destroyed another part of Xiao Song. good life. The ending of

is thought-provoking. It is not a happy ending, but a tragic story. In the end, it also showed the hope in Du Hongjun's heart to make a good transformation, return to society in the future and live anew.

Here, I saw the sadness, joys and sorrows of a small person, the hardships, tiredness and tears of life, all gathered in his mind. The

movie vividly shows his mental journey, from his steadfastness, kindness, patience, to his depression, grief, to outbursts, fear, helplessness, to hope and determination, making a comprehensive display.

This is also the charm of old movies, being close to life, paying attention to the psychology of small people, grounded, unpretentious, compact plot, natural conflict, actor solid foundation, full of charm.

Life is still going on. I believe that after Du Hongjun returns to society, he can usher in a new life and live a happy life that belongs to him.

Ordinary world, ordinary life, ordinary people, ordinary years, hope in despair, everything will pass.
