Zhang Yimou film photography stills.

I remember that there was a time when the story of Wang's stills was madly transmitted online. Because of his large scale, it is rumored that he has appeared in a movie before he became famous.

This film is indeed Wang's early film, but it is not as bad as people think.

On the contrary, this is a film that deeply depicts human nature.

With this film, he won the 40th Taiwan Province Film Best Newcomer Award in one fell swoop.

He was 19 years old that year.

After seeing Yuan, he gave it to world without thieves, which made him famous.

"Blind Well" is really unknown in China, otherwise how can a picture be enough to set off an internet storm?

But it is famous.

The competition for the highest artistic achievement award in the 53rd Moline Film Festival is fierce. Zhang Yimou is bound to win with his painstaking work Hero, but he never wants to be defeated by a little-known "rookie" director Li Yang.

At that time, Li Yang had only a few documentary shooting experiences.

Perhaps just because of the previous experience, the beginning of the blind well is a strong sense of reality. The desert, the cold wind whistling, the dim back and the unstable lens make people feel like they are in the scenery.

The people at the bottom and the society it depicts. There was a time when it was difficult for me to escape from a certain scene. If I have to describe it, it is depression.

1998, the novella Shenmu, with the theme of three major mine disasters that shocked China and foreign countries, begins with this:

In the movie Blind Well, Yuan played by Wang is the "idea" in the article.

Tip:

This article involves movie spoilers. If you mind, please read it after watching the movie!

Before Yuan was selected at the railway station, Tang Chaoyang and Song had just voted and got 30,000 yuan from the coal boss.

Yuan Feng Ming was discovered by Chaoyang Tang. For this matter, Song was very unhappy and quarreled with him.

Why?

Yuan Cai 16 years old, still childlike. Because his father went out to look for a job earlier and never came home, he went out to make money.

But Zhao's insistence made him give up first.

After some tactfulness, the three of them finally found a coal factory that needed work.

Yuan is no longer surnamed Yuan at this time. His name is Song, and Song became his "second uncle".

After completing the formalities, the three people stayed in the factory, and they had to tidy up.

At this point, Yuan stared at the wall for a long time.

Zhao-yang Tang has talked to Song many times about the time to start work, but Song told him several times that the time was not yet ripe.

Zhao-was really impatient to wait, so Song had to start work these days.

Song said to the reason:

The child hasn't touched a woman yet, and he really can't do it.

The two agreed to take him to play once before starting work.

Of course, Yuan's age-appropriate eyesight is full of hormones, but when he takes off his clothes, he still looks like a green eggplant, tender and green.

In addition, the romantic environment is not good, simple and messy, and the lens is dim.

So the audience won't have the slightest pleasure.

Song saw Yuan's mottled family portrait. He suddenly found that Yuan's father looked familiar in the photo. He called Chaoyang Tang and recalled the name of the last "idea".

"It seems that the surname is also Yuan".

Anyway, the time is fixed and the deadline is reduced to.

Finally, Song saved Yuan from Zhao, and he and Zhao died in the mine.

As long as you pay a little attention to some details, you will find that the distortion of Tang Chaoyang and Song Sanguan is almost terrible.

They were cruel and indifferent when they killed people, and they laughed and laughed when they got the money.

His hands were dripping with blood. He turned to the arrested corrupt official reported on TV and said:

This product is greedy for millions, and it's not a loss to shoot him.

Tang Chaoyang: I care about adults and children. You win if you can make money.

They seem to really think that they are engaged in a formal business, just like killing chickens and slaughtering sheep.

Corrupt officials break the law, but they are not.

Then sing karaoke and find a lady. ......

The film didn't go on, but Yuan made them show some obvious differences.

The appearance of Yuan made Zhao feel that this was a rare opportunity.

Song touched his bottom line: the child can't move.

Seeing the students begging in the street, Yuan gave money directly. Song asked: Did you really get in? Then I paid.

And Zhao-proudly said, this must be false.

It was not until Song finally found Yuan from Tang Chaoyang that this difference finally reached its climax.

At this point, a trace of humanity finally appeared in the distorted world view. Although it was only a flash in the pan, it eased the depressing atmosphere of the whole movie.

In other words, this is the only trace of humanity in the whole film.

Yuan didn't tell the truth, but "passively" accepted the 30,000 compensation from the "second uncle".

30,000 yuan and a wisp of smoke left by Song cremation have to remind people that the last "idea" named Yuan also lost 30,000 yuan, and his body was washed away by the water.

Both of them are surnamed Yuan, whether they are father or son.

But it's really like a fate, a reincarnation.

At the beginning of the film, there is a long shot in the well for nearly 30 seconds, which implies the collapse of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Think about it, are they the only ones who have fallen?

Finally, Yuan's face was swept away, and the "green" child who cried and said that he was a bad person after tasting the forbidden fruit for the first time came to mind.

Yuan, who is "wet behind the ears", tasted some sweetness this time?

Will he become a bad person?

How can "blind wells" and "blindness" be used to describe mines?

It's just human heart.
