Appreciation of the film Sunny Days
After youth, looking back, the sun is shining.
I saw it for the first time at that time, in the appreciation class of our university. Walking out of the classroom after reading it, it's very hot outside. I only remember that when I was walking in the sun, I suddenly felt a lot of things that I had forgotten or thought I had forgotten before. In fact, sometimes, feelings are like a circle. We deliberately experienced so much, but in the end we still want to go back to the starting point and complete that incomplete dream. Fortunately, time has always bound us, so that we can do nothing when we miss it again.
When I watched this movie again, I switched TV one night when I was bored, and suddenly I saw the picture of Yu Xia wandering anxiously on the roof like a cat, swinging his limbs quietly. Also, the smell of weeds in the house in summer lingers.
This film, which has been talked about by countless people, has been the focus of film critics since/kloc-0 won back the best actor from Venice in 1994. Today, we can still see many film critics mention it when quoting classics.
This film is based on Wang Shuo's novel "Animals are worse than Animals". It is the first film directed by Jiang Wen, a famous actor, and it has a very true description of the living conditions and adolescent confusion of teenagers during the Cultural Revolution. The film used some relatively new surrealist techniques in China at that time, and described the violence and love of teenagers more vaguely and cruelly. Sunny Days, shot by Zhang Yimou's royal photographer Gu Changwei, starring/Quiet/Hong Tao actress,1born in 1969/Geng Le. 1994 won the Best Actor Award at the 5 1 Venice Film Festival, the Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Photography Award at the 33rd Taiwan Film Golden Horse Award, and the Best Actor Award at the 8th Singapore International Film Festival.
The story happened in the 1970s, which is unprecedented for our generation. With the famous Cultural Revolution as the background, it tells the story of the friendship, hazy love and confusion about life that happened during the growth of children living in that era. Based on the hero Ma Xiaojun's secret love for Milan, this film tells us all kinds of stories that he and his companions experienced that summer.
Many people don't like Jiang Wen. They think he is wild and melodramatic, but we have to admit that no matter whether you like it or not, sunny days are inevitable in films about growth and youth. It can even be said that the cruelty of youth, the confusion of growth, the desire for women and the sincere feelings between brothers in the film moved us and even made us cry.
The film begins with a man's deep voice. My story always happens in summer. The hot climate makes people more exposed, and it is more difficult to hide their desires. At that time, it seemed that it was always summer, and the sun was always free to accompany me. Sunny, too bright, black eyes. ) laid a nostalgic tone from the beginning. The director poetically beautified the years in the narrator's memory, making the whole movie as dazzling as satin golden sunshine.
The main color of the whole film is yellow and green, which allows us to experience the hot and irritable mood in summer with the protagonist in the process of watching movies. In the film, Ma Xiaojun's ass wriggling like a rogue, his rogue smile on his face and his panic when answering police questions are all impressive. I remember the first time I saw it, Ma Xiaojun mentioned his father's name when answering the police's question. I finally saw it in the staff list at the end of the film. I think a lot of people must have laughed when I was filming. Milan, with both the innocence of a girl and the charm of a young woman, is a symbol of mature women who are most likely to be admired by adolescent boys.
For many people who have experienced that time, it was unbearable and painful. But apart from pain, we can always find the happiness and gentleness that life gives us. Just like the bitter black coffee at the entrance, it is slightly sweet after bitterness. In those days when passion was burning, Ma Xiaojun's growth was accompanied by the confusion of his first wet experience and the pain of transformation.
For Ma Xiaojun, a group of children, that special era gave them the greatest freedom and fresh air. They freely vent their restless desires and passions and grow up crazily according to their own wishes. Therefore, it is a natural and convincing reason to break into a stranger's house and peek into others' privacy because of unlocking. It is for this reason that Milan and Ma Xiaojun met later.
Ma Xiaojun's infatuation with Milan is more the fantasy of the perfect woman in his imagination. From the first photo of Milan, I couldn't help wandering on the roof, just to see Milan's smile. There are also scenes where people who go to Milan's home panic and flee because of the questioning of the people inside, which makes many people return to the hazy love when they were young.
The shallow smile on Milan's face fascinated the young Ma Xiaojun. Under the wet hair, that clever smiling face, the charm of mature women inadvertently revealed, and Zhang Yongyuan's mouth with rich expression are destined to be an elusive dream for Ma Xiaojun, which is the image projected by the whole youth group's desire for mature women. Ma Xiaojun looked at her with the shyness and piety of looking up to the ideal. Ma Xiaojun tried very hard to get close to her, but she was swayed by the realistic waterline again and again.
The sunshine in the film is too bright to be believed, so when the only scene in the rain appears, it is so unreal. Perhaps it is because it is untrue that all unrealistic fantasies about Ma Xiaojun have come true in this scene. When he didn't hesitate for the only time in the film, when she said that sentence that has been lingering in his heart, it was the only comforting hug in the whole film.
This film has always emphasized the friendship between Ma Xiaojun and his friends. The unruly children who grew up in Beijing compound and the unique language family of Beijing dialect made us smile when we reviewed the film. Perhaps, that era really didn't belong to us, but all the stories that happened in that era were what we longed for but could never get close to.
If you think that all the happiness and anger in this movie only reflect the confusion of teenagers in that era, then this may not be enough to make this movie a classic. When Milan and Liu Yi are close together, when Ma Xiaojun's deep attachment to Milan turns into vicious attack and revenge, and when Ma Xiaojun does not hesitate to use "rape" to make Milan remember him, a sense of despair abandoned by the world arises. And the screams in that rainy night made us understand that even serious and authoritative youth is still full of cruelty and trauma. In such brilliant sunshine at that time, there was also pain and melancholy.
Gu Changwei's photography skills are fully displayed at the end of the film ―― Ma Xiaojun is kicked out of the swimming pool, and his helplessness in the water symbolizes his isolation and the degradation and alienation revealed in the lens. Let us know that when we see that love and dreams are broken, it is futile to struggle and resist.
I like sunny days, because I like to exile the idle happiness of the fields on such days; I like sunny days, because I like the vague homesickness inside, which is my lingering emotion; I like sunny days because I like its loyal, mature and calm attitude towards the past. In the film, the episode in the first "Country Knight", and the picture of Ma Xiaojun walking sadly on the roof and riding a bicycle on a forest path with his beloved Milan in the sunset orange sunshine, pure thoughts and imagination let us understand that sunny days are just the existence of sunshine, which is a brilliant imagination, a victory of time and a profound reflection and pursuit of suffering years.
To be sure, if there were no Cultural Revolution, the youth in Ma Xiaojun would be different. Like all of us, he will choose to study, choose to attend classes, choose to pass English and then choose to work ... Many years later, when he looks back, there will be no unforgettable memories. Youth is like a rose abandoned by us, which fades a little in the spiritual desert, dries up and then disappears. After youth, looking back, the sun is shining.
