Thoughts on "Three Fools Make a Big Scene in Bollywood"

"Do you know why I came first? Because I love machinery, engineering is my interest. Do you know your interest? That's your interest … Bye-bye to engineering, marry photography, and give full play to your talents. Think about Michael Jackson's father forcing him to become a boxer, and Muhammad Ali's father forcing him to sing. Think about the terrible consequences ... "This is what rancho, the main man in Bollywood, said to his good brother farhran. The whole sentence actually means that interest is the best teacher.

Bollywood is also called Three Idiots. When I didn't watch it, I thought it was a pure crisp and funny American film, but I didn't know it was an interesting film until I saw it (forgive me for thinking of Bollywood as Hollywood at that time). This film is directed by Rajkumar Hirani, which is roughly adapted from? Indian best-selling writer Chitan. Bahat's first novel five point someone. The story is hilarious and the plot is ups and downs. Although it lasts for 164 minutes, it won't make you feel bored. The "three fools" in the name are true-in the Royal Institute of Engineering, where there are 42 exams each semester, the scores are posted, the competition is fierce and even the suicide rate is high, there is a problem student Rancher who doesn't play cards according to the rules like Stephen Chow. He contradicts the teacher, questions the tradition and doesn't take the grades seriously at all. Of course, the stuffy headmaster "virus" will scold Rancher and his two roommates, Fahan and ranju.

At the beginning of the film, the principal "Virus" talks about his honor to all the freshmen Kan Kan-a "space pen" given to him by his director. While all the students listened to his speech with admiration, Rancher put forward a question that angered the principal, "Why don't you spend millions on that thing instead of pencils?" His question undoubtedly gave all the people present a lightning strike, and successfully angered the principal and deeply "remembered" him. At the same time, it was at this moment that the film caught my eye, wondering what he would do next to make the principal's "heart attack" break out.

throughout the film, I only raised three points I want to say. I say so because I really have a lot of words and feelings to share with others after watching this film.

first, classic quotations.

If you have seen this film, you will certainly agree with me. This film is really full of classic quotations. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it here. What are you waiting for?

The most distinctive sentence in the classic quotations is Rancher's mantra that he often talks about and saves the baby's life: "a all is well." This sentence always comes out when he feels scared or encounters difficulties. It is also the first sentence he said when he appeared, and it is even more controversial.

When his good friend Raju couldn't concentrate on his studies because of various fears, Rancher patted his chest and said "Everything is fine". At that time, Raju questioned, "Can this sentence solve the problem?" When we thought Rancher would not know how to answer or at least hesitate for a few seconds, he immediately replied seriously and devoutly: "Although it can't solve the problem, it gives you the courage to face the difficulties and solve the problem."

this seems to be somewhat similar to what Mr. Lu Xun wrote? "ah q's spiritual victory method" can be used and useful, but it can't be abused. Rancher will find a way to solve the problem immediately after he said this. We should not just imitate his words and forget his actions.

The cramming education in India is very similar to the exam-oriented education in China, which is why I feel the same way after watching this film.

"When we were born, we were told that life is a race. If we don't run fast, we will be ravaged. Even when we are born, we have to race with 3 million sperm."

in "Royal Institute of Engineering", achievement is everything, the first is excellence, and the second is lowser. So everyone is under pressure, and the student suicide rate is high. I don't know this sentence and the last sentence at the end of the film, "Free advice, Mr. Wangdu ... Run for your life." Does it matter? But it's always memorable. That's why Rancher said a silent word to everyone, including the principal, on the podium: "You are all caught in a crazy game. Even if you are the first, what's the use of this way. Will your knowledge increase? No, the only increase is pressure. This is a university, not a pressure cooker. "

After his friend Raju was forced by the headmaster to jump off a building and commit suicide in the hospital, Rancher put the photo of his friend Fahan's parents smiling in his friend's wallet and told him that if he wanted to commit suicide, think about what the smile on his face would be like when his parents saw his body.

He always seems to have a way to make life better, which always makes me suddenly realize, ah, life could have been like this. And those classic quotations not only show India's real problems and social conditions, but also make people enjoy life.

second, the picture lens.

There is a funny plot in the middle of the movie. When introducing the family environment of good friend Raju, the voice-over said with self-mockery, "It's like a copy of a black-and-white movie in the 195s, a small and dark room, a paralyzed father, a coughing mother and an unmarried sister. "While automatically lowering the saturation of the picture, it is deliberately made into a rough grain texture of black and white movies. And in the future, as soon as it is played at Raju's house, the film will automatically turn from color to black and white, which is almost exquisite. I was also deeply impressed.

Another point is a well-known thing, which is also the characteristic of all Indian films. That is, in the middle of the movie, there will always be a lot of people suddenly running out for no reason, singing and dancing with the protagonist in the street or somewhere, regardless of the occasion. The song and dance are smelly and long, which is very boring.

But "Three Silliness" fully explains Lancher's optimistic mentality that "everything is fine" with songs and dances. What impressed me most was the scene when the school stopped water supply, a group of students directly took the plastic pipe as a shower nozzle and rushed and danced "bath dance" in the bathroom. It releases all the students' crazy and free souls, and makes everyone fall into infinite joy. Your body will unconsciously follow the swing.

I admire the director's scheduling arrangement before and after this song and dance. When each surreal dance comes to an end, the camera will cut back to the story process and easily promote the plot development. After the whole carnival, there was a sudden huge contrast, which made the audience's emotions plummet from the relaxed end to the bottom of depression and regret, which not only increased the ups and downs of the plot itself, but also added depth to the originally airy "Everything is fine". Bollywood's narrative skills are really worthy of the name.

third, laugh at yourself.

After reading it, what kept me laughing was that the silencer read the poem written by Rancher during the speech:

"It is proud to fart loudly, it is acceptable to fart moderately, it is very bad to fart softly, and it is unbearable to fart silently." These seemingly hilarious four sentences always make you feel thoughtful after laughing. In hindsight, what he said was not all bullshit, which really made sense.

We call this kind of self-mockery "serious teasing", which is widely used in the film, and this kind of nameless self-mockery also makes the film not dry and inspirational, but also divorced from the tone of realism, and will not become empty and noisy in righteous words.

Everyone knows that Rancher is right, but they all know that his stuff will hit a wall everywhere in real life. Ideal always crashes into pieces when facing reality. This is not simply "lack of passion" or "full of fear" can explain. More often, singing "Everything is fine" is just a kind of self-paralysis of Ah Q, the expectation of elders, the pressure of peers, the necessity of survival, the scarcity of opportunities and the impossibility of talent, which proves to idealism again and again the tragic fate of pioneers who are independent and hold empty ideals.

In The Pursuit of Happyness, the hero also went through the low ebb of being single with his five-year-old son homeless, sleeping in the toilet and receiving relief, seized the opportunity and made constant efforts, and finally ran to success. "Three Fools" simply ignores the hard ten years of a loner and focuses on the theory of idealism. No ridicule, no self-mockery. For more than two hours, the story was easily finished without any delay. Do not deliberately amuse the audience, do not pretend to be sensational, but always make people laugh and cry from the heart, and there are tears in the laughter after crying.

Is this "idealism" really not supposed to exist? In the very realistic society, can we have a foothold in the society only through the "rote learning" of cramming education? The answer is no. Anyway, I am very moved and fully support Rancher's courage to challenge the reality. Whether he succeeds or fails in the end, we should all support him. Maybe it is too small to change some things in reality. Maybe we care more about "a good life", and we are better than others, no matter what method we use.

I still don't want to "regret it before I die" and live a life I don't even want to live all my life.

"Pursuing Excellence, success will catch up with you inadvertently ..." If you think about it carefully, this sentence is actually very useful in both ideal and reality. I think everyone understands the reason.

There is another success of the film. You remember the scene in which President Rancher teased at the beginning of the film. Finally, the president finally saved his face a little. Before he gave the space pen to Rancher, he said to him, "On the day of admission, you asked me a question, why can't astronauts use pencils in space?" If the pen tip is broken and weightless, it will float in the air and enter the eyes, nose and instruments. You're wrong. You can't always be right. Do you understand? This is an important invention, you know? My dean said, when you meet a student who is as outstanding as you, give it to him ... Go, study, and get out after the exam ... "

You can't always be right. This sentence brings the ideal back to reality and gives us a sense of reality.

back to the topic, how important is our "like"? In fact, the whole film is on this issue. The film also tells us the answer at the end. Finally, Fahan became a photographer, Raju was hired by a company, and Rancher became a primary school principal with 4 inventions a year, which is changing the fate of the next generation ... < P > Our "liking" will actually change our lives. If you have any concerns, just pat your chest and say "alliswell".
