After watching the movie " Life Events ", I had some feelings. Especially at the beginning, when I saw Xiao Wen unable to call his grandmother, I suddenly felt that this was a horror movie. Perhaps for children, it may be that grandma fell asleep and did not wake up, but they did not know that grandma had left. In fact, this point is very touching. The dearest grandma could not wake up, but was carried away and sent to the hospital again. Burned, what a terrible thing.
It is said in the movie: "Except for life and death, it is all trivial matters." Everyone has to face growth, setbacks and maturity in their life. It is inevitable that they will face misfortunes and blessings day and night, as well as unpredictable birth, old age, illness and death. In this long and short life, In life, we must live a wonderful and meaningful life. Everyone thinks of "life events" differently. Some think it is marriage, some think it is children's high school entrance examination and college entrance examination, some think it is parents enjoying their old age, and some think it is having a proud career. There is no right or wrong. In the long river of life, there are storms, calmness, brilliance, and suffering. Everyone is different, but everyone has an end. The end may be foreseen from the beginning, or it may come unexpectedly. When When it appears, it marks your entire life in an instant.
"Death" is not mentioned in China. It is a very painful grief for the deceased relatives, and it is bad luck for outsiders who cannot empathize. After all, in the minds of most Chinese people, they cannot accept the fact of death. Reminiscent of " Coco " released in 2017, it tells the story of the Day of the Dead, which is the day when deceased relatives come back to reunite with their living relatives. It gives it a strong warm color and lets more people know that death is not a scary thing. , and never leave.
The story is told to Xiaowen in the voice of the third brother. Grandma turned into a star and went to the sky, continuing to protect her and love her in another form. When I was a child, I heard this kind of white lie from the grandmothers and grandmothers of the older generation. When I grew up and watched this movie, although I found it healing, it became more ironic. The story is not complicated, just touching enough. Like Xiao Wen and Third Brother, they were not acquainted before they got into each other, but after getting along, they became dependent on each other; like the old man and Third Brother, on the surface they disliked each other, but in the end they still had a relationship of fatherly kindness and son filial piety. The relationship between people can be good or bad at the beginning, but after getting along for a long time, true feelings will emerge.
talked about some scenes in several movies that made me cry several times.
Fragment 1: The third brother told Xiaowen that grandma died and turned into smoke and floated away, turning into stars in the sky. That night, the third brother got up and found that Xiaowen was not in bed. When he walked to the door, he found Xiaowen sitting alone in the yard. I looked at the stars in the sky, and then listened to my grandma’s voice playing on the smart watch. “Xiaowen, come back early for your birthday today. Grandma has prepared your favorite dishes.” “Sister, it’s sunny outside today. Don’t play tricks.” It’s been a long time, and the girl’s tan won’t look good.” etc. The content of this voice appeared several times in subsequent plots. I couldn’t help but get wet in my eyes every time I listened to it. Thinking about us in life, we ignore many of the concerns we take for granted.
Fragment 2: The third brother held his father’s urn and gave his father a final farewell in the form of fireworks at the beach. There is also a small detail here. His father’s suicide note mentioned that he wanted a special farewell ceremony. Unexpectedly If so, he would keep staring at the third brother. After the fireworks were lit, they paused for a few seconds. The third brother took two steps forward and then the fireworks burst out. The final reconciliation between father and son is completed here. In addition to touching, there is also a romantic feeling. It turns out that raising ashes can also be a romantic thing.
Maybe I live too soberly. Sometimes I wonder what kind of method I will choose if I have to leave that day! How many people will remember you, and how many people will feel sorry for you! Who will cry for you! Maybe this idea is a bit premature, but we don’t know who will come first tomorrow.
We will all be moved when facing love. From birth to death, love is all around us. The trailer for "Big Things in Life" says: "Thank you for keeping me warm. Even if there are joys and sorrows, hardships and setbacks, the big thing in life is to live well, live hard, and live kindly..."
