, no matter how long the time has passed, it always makes people feel meaningful in retrospect.
especially works of great directors, every shot is worthy of scrutiny.
For example, the last film of Ang Lee's "Father Trilogy" series-
"Diet Men and Women"
was released in 1994, and it has been 25 years since.
But it is still the one with the highest reputation among all the films directed by Ang Lee, with more than 300,000 Douban scored 9.1.
"Eating Men and Women" can easily be understood as "men and women eating" just by looking at the title.
In fact, these four words are derived from the "Book of Rites".
screenwriter Wang Huiling said: "Eating and eating are things on the countertop, while desires and men and women are things under the countertop. Things under the countertop can never be discussed on the countertop."
But this film will eat and drink on the countertop. Things and things under the table of men and women are all placed in the lens.
editor first talk about appetite.
In this film, you can completely regard "Diet Men and Women" as "China on the Tip of the Tongue".
The live fish is descaled and boneless, and the blade is good, wrapped in flour and put in the pan. The sound of
"zizizizi" is the tender meat boiling.
This crystal clear squid looks tender.
fat but not greasy meat, I am salivating.
Don’t say anything else, I’m full just by looking at the animation, and I can smell the fragrance through the screen.
Li Ang's father, the actor Lang Xiong, played Zhu's father is a retired chef.
is from the beginning of his superb cooking skills and the certificate on the wall where the lens is dazzling, we can easily know his status in the catering industry.
People regard food as their heaven, especially in our great heaven, food is more important.
In many film and television works, food and dining table symbolize reunion, but in "Diet Men and Women", the food and dining table are arranged by Ang Lee as the key to the family members going their own way. The several family dinners in the
film symbolize the continuous disintegration of this family. The family in
has four members: a father and three daughters. The eldest daughter Jiazhen of
works as a chemistry teacher in a local school. With a conservative personality, she does not dare to take the first step in love easily, but she yearns for love in her heart. With such ambivalence,
secretly fabricated an imaginary first boyfriend in college, and her boyfriend abandoned her and left for America.
She always said that she would be the daughter to accompany her father to the end, and the younger sisters could live their lives.
She has admiration for the physical education teacher of the same school, but she dare not pierce the window paper, but she is secretly guessing the other party's thoughts.
The second daughter, Jia Qian, is an airline manager. She is the most willful in the family. She is very capable at work, but emotionally confused.
In fact, she is very talented in cooking. When she was a child, she dreamed of being a chef, but was driven out of the kitchen by her father.
has been at odds with his father ever since.
So, at the first family dinner, she was the first to propose to move out of this house. This scene of
is very much like you and me in reality. I grew up under the care of my parents, but I am eager to get out of this "fetter" of my own home. I always feel that the world outside is better than home.
is actually the best at home. The youngest daughter of
, Jianing, is going to school. She is in her youth, but she is strange. In order to test the sincerity of her boyfriend for her, good friends always pretend to be indifferent and don't like to talk to her boyfriend. Jia Ning saw all this in his eyes and kept it in his heart.
In the end, she became the one who snatched the boyfriend of her girlfriend.
is actually quite surprising in this film. The person who said that he would stay with his father for a long time left early.
The person who seems the least able to keep the tradition and loneliness, but persists till the end.
In the film, at the third and fourth family banquets, the younger daughter Jia Ning and the eldest daughter Jia Zhen announced Fengzi’s marriage, flash marriage, and left home.
, instead, only the second daughter Jiaqian who wants to leave first is left at home.
Everyone thinks that this film should have come to an end..
did not expect the director to hide a big trick, "Diet for Men and Women", the diet is flesh and blood, men and women are bones; the love of father and daughter is the vertical axis, and the love of men and women is the grid. The
diet is just an introduction, focusing on men and women.
At the fifth family banquet, his father, Zhu, said: He is going to move out to marry Jinrong.
Jin Rong is a good friend of three daughters, not much older than her eldest daughter Jiazhen.
Before the love affair between Lao Zhu and Jin Rong, the daughters did not know at all, they thought that their father would live a life alone.
At the end of the film, the old man grows strong, not only married Jinrong, but also made Jinrong pregnant.
Seeing this scene, I believe people are more or less surprised.
Sure enough, ginger is still hot.
At this moment, you should understand that the relationship between men and women under the stage is portrayed vividly in Director Ang Lee's lens. Under
appetite is libido. Jiazhen, the eldest daughter of
, looks like a conservative person, unable to listen to the meows that symbolize sexual desire, and the singing of lovers, but after seeing a physical education teacher who is full of muscles and symbolizing sexual desire, she unloaded her atrium and received the marriage certificate at the speed of light.
The second daughter Jia Qian had a sex scene with Raymond as soon as she appeared. When she wanted to tell Raymond something about her, Raymond only kissed her with only sexual desire in her mind.
's most well-behaved little daughter, Jianing, was the first to have a relationship with someone to get pregnant and left home. Of course, the biggest reversal of
was Dad Zhu. He raised three daughters by himself and suppressed his sexual desire. In the end, he married a woman of the same grade as her daughter and made her pregnant again.
As the lines in this film say: eating men and women, people have great desires, it is difficult not to think.
diet men and women, human desires, not to mention.
Eating men and women can't hide from the word food. Food, survival instinct, color, full of lust.
Now this seemingly sensitive topic, under the lens of Master Li Ang, looks so elegant and stylish.
Life is nothing more than this, only food and love can not be disappointed.
