Feng Xiaogang 's " If You Are the One" are two parts of domestic movies that I would like to watch again. Compared with Zhang Yimou's Twister and Chen Kaifeng's , they are bigger and bigger. Particularly good at discovering the bright spots of human nature in the subtle, revealing the complexity and change of human nature in cynical laughter and curse. Therefore, watching Director Feng’s movies can always make people laugh with tears. No matter when, his movies always It is worth watching again.
" If You Are the One 2 " starts with Li Xiangshan and Mango's divorce ceremony. To be honest, the scene of this movie released in 2010 is really dare to be the first, it is hilarious at the same time. It's refreshing, this is the charm of Feng's comedy, which can always make you have unexpected surprises.
Uncle Ge needless to say, he is full of drama, and I have been working with Director Feng for many years, so I can easily play any role. It’s amazing that Sun Honglei, who played Li Xiangshan, and Yao Chen, who played Mango, were extremely popular in the 2009 TV series "Latent", and they were selected by Director Feng to play the male role in the movie. The second and the second female are exactly in line with the comedy temperament and tragedy core of the movie, so these two people have robbed a lot of the limelight of the male and female protagonists.
"If You Are the One", the first part mainly discusses the different views and treatments of love between men and women, and the second part adds an interpretation of marriage and what kind of attitude one should have when one has to face death. . The screenwriters of the second part are Wang Shuo and Feng Xiaogang. It is obvious that Wang Shuo expresses some of his thoughts through the characters in the movie.
This character Li Xiangshan is in "If You Are the One 2",In fact, it appears as a reference. The female protagonist Liang Xiaoxiao agreed to the male protagonist Qin Fen’s proposal at the beginning of the second part. Then Qin Fen hosted the divorce ceremony between Li Xiangshan and Mango. Liang Xiaoxiao heard Mango’s pessimistic thoughts on marriage. The decision also has to do a trial marriage first, and then decide whether or not to get married.
I tried, but I tried the scorer. Qin Fen still loves to smile, but he doesn't want to force it, and Xiaoxiao obviously feels that she doesn't love Qin Fen, but just likes it, but she is used to calling and texting Qin Fen every day, until Qin Fen does not Reply to her text message again.
During this period, Li Xiangshan suddenly became ill. He had a very malignant melanoma . It took only a few months from the onset to the critical condition.
Li Xiangshan hopes that he can die decently. He is unwilling to be admitted to the hospital like most patients with advanced cancer, undergo radiotherapy and chemotherapy and many other treatments, and finally undergo the rescue that he knows is useless. Measures, when you die, all kinds of pipes are plugged into your body, and people have already suffered so much that they have already lost their appearance.
Li Xiangshan asked his trusted Qin Fen to organize a decent ceremony for him so that he could pass away peacefully and painlessly.
The Chinese tradition is to taboo doctors, and death is listed as a taboo topic, so it can often be seen that whenever a patient is diagnosed with an incurable disease, the doctor must find a family member to explain the condition, and Tell the patient indirectly. Of course, this has the consideration of taking care of the patient’s emotions. I am worried that the patient will have a heavy psychological burden after learning the truth, which will affect the treatment effect. However, this unwillingness to face death in our traditional culture determines that we are dealing with death. The time is not objective and blind.
Life and death are processes that everyone must go through, and no one can escape. So, what can't be said about death?
If you can understand and prepare for death earlier, then wait until the day of death comes,Will we be more calm and calm?
Actually, the most difficult thing in a person's life is not how to live, but how to beg to die. The so-called good death is the end of life, the day before, everything is as usual, and the next day in his sleep, he left the world with a smile. Of course, this is probably everyone's dream, but in fact, there is very little that can be done.
Since it is difficult to do, then through proper arrangements in advance like Li Xiangshan, we can barely avoid being tossed in pain, so as to leave decently.
Li Xiangshan is a money stringer, but he is also an open-minded person. After learning that he was short of time, he did not blame the world or others, nor was he cynical, but completely accepted. He said to Qin Fen: "It's not cured, I want to die with dignity. This is not a disease, this is fate, my fate. I'm here, and I can only follow my fate."
Li Xiangshan explained to Qin Fen what he couldn't let go of, and I hope Qin Fen can help him continue. They drank the wine that was auctioned for 500,000 yuan, and while talking about the heavy topic of death, both of them drank too much. Qin Fen fell into the bathroom and just happened to smile. He said to the smile, "Life is very It’s short, it’s a hundred, it’s an early death and a childcare. If you say it’s gone, it’s gone, and it’s gone.” The
film arranges a contrasting scene here. Four people are in the night scene, and all of them are dancing frantically and arbitrarily. There are only four of them, sitting quietly on the sofa, behind a huge shark swimming, their eyes blindly looking forward, wondering what the future holds.
Qin Fen accompanied Li Xiangshan to see the cemetery, looking at the densely packed tombstones,
Li Xiangshan: I don’t see it, it’s like a big shop, living in a pile of people, and dead. It's still crowded, if I sleep here, would you like it?
Qin Fen: I'm not happy. If I die, I don't hide myself and let my neighbor wake up from crying.
Li Xiangshan: Then raise it, a pair of smelly skins, raise it clean. Originally wanted to donate two organs,The results have all gone bad, and I can't take it anymore. If you are not taboo, just buy a flowerpot, put me in it, plant a green dill, and put it in the corner of the company, you will grow crazy and tall, and I will look at you and smile every day.
Qin Fen: I don't taboo the dead, I only taboo the living.
This short dialogue tells the two screenwriters Wang Shuo and Feng Xiaogang's views on death, and also explains their different understanding of the body and spirit. The body will eventually disappear. However, The spirit can live forever.
As a person, life is practice, and death is practice. For death, it is useless to fear. If you are afraid of it, you can't avoid it. Sooner or later, you will pass this level. Then why not take advantage of life to understand Think about it clearly?
The climax of the film was Li Xiangshan’s farewell party. It was raining endlessly outside. Relatives and friends came from all directions and gathered around Li Xiangshan to make a summary of his life. He was sent off on his final return journey.
There is no doubt that Qin Fenlai is still presiding over this farewell party in life. (Director Feng’s film likes to use various press conferences to promote the plot, and Uncle Ge’s superb acting skills always make each press conference brilliant and unforgettable.)
Qin Fen’s speech is still Full of humor, after briefly summarizing Li Xiangshan’s characteristics and life experience, there was a sudden turning point:
"But we love him, love the bad guy with a shortcoming called Xiangshan, he is a soup in our lives. It's not fun without him."
This sentence moved everyone present and moved the audience watching the movie. No matter how bad a person is, he will have his own relatives and friends. I hope I can get such an evaluation after death. Although it is ordinary for a lifetime, it is a soup for friends and relatives around me. I have never been in vain in my life, and I finally live a bit of meaning.
Li Xiangshan: I have been loved many times, and have loved people many times. In the end, I have to say that I don’t know how to cherish, and I have lived up to many kindness and goodwill. I have offended and secretly complained. Here, I have also made up with death.
Li Xiangshan: This is the end of Li Xiangshan's practice in this life, and he is very ashamed to report to everyone that Li Xiangshan has not cultivated anything good or bad in this life. He is too busy, busy earning money, busy drinking, and busy making love. Crisis, all the good times have passed.
Wu Sang : Are you afraid of death, Xiangshan?
Li Xiangshan: I'm afraid, like walking at night and knocking on the black door. You don't know whether it is a colorful world or an abyss behind the door. I'm afraid that you may step into the air. I am afraid that it is not the end but the beginning, Wusang, you know what to do , About death?
Wu Sang: I heard that there is light, follow the light, the old people say so.
Li Xiangshan: Thank you, thank you Wu Sang. Death is another kind of existence. Compared with life, this is what my daughter Chuanchuan told me today. Only life is a kind of incompleteness. It's a good point!
Then, relatives and friends bid farewell to Li Xiangshan in turn, and told him what they wanted to say to him while he was still alive, so that they would not regret each other.
This scene is really touching. Compared with the grand memorial service after death, I admire Li Xiangshan's special farewell party in life. Before leaving the world, I met the people I wanted to meet and said what I wanted to say. Entrust the things you want to entrust, put aside all the burdens, and easily meet the last moment.
I feel that "If You Are the One 2" this movie is the most wanted to express,It should be the farewell scene of Li Xiangshan's life, through the perception of the dying person, to warn those who are still alive, to cherish life, cherish the great time, and not to waste time on meaningless things. (What is meaningless, everyone has their own judgment.)
For example, Liang Xiaoxiao and Qin Fen, they both liked each other, but couldn’t let go of their self-esteem and prejudices. As a result, they could be together well, but because of their respective After careful consideration of separation for several years, it was not until Li Xiangshan's last sentence that they awakened them:
How to choose marriage is wrong, and a long-term marriage is just wrong.
After saying goodbye to his relatives and friends, Li Xiangshan jumped into the sea alone and ended his life. According to their appointment, Qin Fen put Li Xiangshan's ashes in the flowerpot and planted a green stalk.
One life has passed away, and another life has begun again, endlessly, repeating itself.
I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this movie. Every time I’m bored, when I’m feeling down, I’ll find out and watch it again. Every time I watch it, I’m happy and calm down.
The unknown death knows life. Li Xiangshan’s open-mindedness is worthy of respect and learning. People who can face death must be fearless and will not waste their lives.
I hope that everyone who is alive can live this life well.
—end—
