Reporter Song said that the movie " Life Events " with a box office of nearly 300 million in four days was released, becoming the first highly praised film in this summer. In the film, actor Zhu Yilong brings a completely different contrast from "Little Prince", and is called a "subversive performance" by the audience. In terms of content, the movie "The Great Event of Life" fills the gap in the funeral theme of domestic films, faces life and death directly, and warms and heals through the mutual assistance of small characters. This warm narrative expression brings a warm breeze to the audience and becomes the key to breaking the circle of "The Great Event of Life".
The movie "The Great Events in Life" tells the story of Mo Sanmei, played by Zhu Yilong, who "son inherited her father's business" after being released from prison and took over his father's funeral shop. During a funeral, he and his two partners got custody of Xiaowen, but after that, a series of accidents followed one after another.
In the cast of "The Great Events in Life", Zhu Yilong is the most important highlight. Zhu Yilong on the screen speaks Wuhan dialect, has a buzz cut, likes floral shirts and foot-clip slippers, and strives to get close to the image of a "market ruffian" in the role setting. The film also has close-ups of Zhu Yilong's eyes, but unfortunately, Zhu Yilong's eyes are too clean, which is still a bit different from the rough taste of "third brother". Zhu Yilong's familiar "smoke licking" action designed by himself adds a lot of points.
In the movie, Zhu Yilong and the young actor Yang En talk in Wuhan dialect is a major feature. On the other hand, the narration and presentation of the funeral industry has become the most special part of "The Great Events in Life". The beginning of the film is that Mo Sanmei wears a shroud for the old lady and uses the misunderstanding of stealing things, showing the various prejudices that funeral practitioners will encounter. After Mo Sanmei's love affair died unexpectedly, Mo Sanmei and her father went to the funeral home to put on makeup for the deceased, and Xiaowen painted on the pink urn, laughing and chaotic funerals of living people, etc. The details are presented with funeral customs and customs. The relatively unpopular themes in this kind of movie make people think of the Japanese movie " Devourer ", but "The Great Events of Life" does not focus on "pain" and "sadness", but instead adds a sense of humor.
The rivalry between Zhu Yilong and Yang Enyou is the highlight of the whole film. The relationship between Mo Sanmei and Xiaowen is from the incompatibility of water and fire at the beginning to the inseparable relationship between father and daughter, and the transition and progression of the entire emotion are very convincing, and many plots make people cry. For example, Mo Sanmei told Xiaowen "cruelly" that the blue smoke coming out of the chimney was grandma, and Xiaowen told the teacher at school that "dad" Mo Sanmei was the one who planted stars in the sky. Later, Xiaowen's biological mother came to her. Mo Sanmei took Xiaowen into a taxi while she was asleep. As a result, Xiaowen woke up and cried and wanted to get out of the car. She patted the window and shouted "Dad". Mo Sanmei ran wildly behind the car until she disappeared even the slippers were missing. The relationship between the two progressed layer by layer, which inspired the audience's emotions.
has laughter and tears, which is the keyword of the movie "Big Events in Life". The film's producer Han Yan has used the creative technique of laughter and tears many times, trying to explore the meaning and preciousness of life with the audience in different stages and contexts. For example, the movies he directed before, "Get out! Tumor Lord" and " Give You a Little Red Flower " both involve issues of life and death, and are similar to the method of "The Great Events in Life" that uses comedy to wrap reality.
The "laughing" in the movie "Big Events in Life" is hidden among the little characters, showing mutual appreciation and mutual assistance. On the other hand, it is the ridiculous and cry of the protagonist's acquaintance process. "Three Brothers" met Wu Xiaowen, an orphan with a rebellious personality. One called himself Sun Wukong, the other held a halter in his hand and tied two sky-high buns, which looked very similar to Nezha . When the two met for the first time, they lived in the upper and lower bunk beds. Xiaowen was frightened by the paper doll and dared not go to the bathroom. She wet the bed on the upper bunk bed and made Mo Sanmei look on her face. Mo Sanmei washed the bed sheet but found that the property certificate was wrapped inside, and washed the house book into a blank book.
handles serious and grand propositions lightly, requiring humorous plots, and also requiring real "sadness" in life. "Get out! Tumor Lord" is an incurable terminal illness, and the real pain in the process of Xiongdun from the emergency department to the hematology department to chemotherapy.The "sad" in "Send You a Little Red Flower" is the line from Wei Yihang , "I'm afraid that I will die just after I take out my sincerity." In "The Great Events in Life", Mo Sanmei and Wu Xiaowen are in a difficult situation. Mo Sanmei is engaged in one-stop funeral service, and her professional attributes lead to him suffering from various prejudices. Xiaowen lost her grandmother, and her uncle's family was unwilling to raise her, so she became a helpless orphan. The sadness wrapped in humor is the background color of the film.
