Four pictures today.
is also the most personal picture of this year.
Recommend a "small movie" to be released this week.
said it was small because it was in Guangzhou. The fictional protagonist is a single woman in Guangzhou.
She has a good life, has an income, a job, a house, and friends.
In the eyes of others, her only problem is:
is 40 years old and single.
And the bigger problem may be her own
She wants to be single, but she didn't fully figure it out:
Single, is it a decision that can last a lifetime?
Sir believes that this question has also been asked in the hearts of many people (not even women).
said it for a long time without saying the title.
Its name is the name of the protagonist.
is also a director. I think of the name given to every woman.
"Pearl".
It is not the kind of "commercial film".
It has worries, but it is not the kind of terminal illness, the kind of heartbreaking life and death;
It also has fun and happiness, but it is not the high-powered fun that has been designed;
It's the kind of funny that a few girlfriends mock each other and reveal some private affairs to each other.
It is terribly real and terribly private.
Today’s film review is a bit special.
Many people in the editorial department watched it.
So let everyone who has seen it talk twice.
Some people feel comfortable and warm, and some viewers feel:
I don’t want to live like this woman!
I don’t want to be forty years old, and still as contradictory as her!
This movie, according to the feedback from the current editorial department, is suitable for three kinds of people.
One,Fans of literary films.
likes to meticulously touch the style and taste from the director's silent mirror movement, narration and other controls;
Second, realism style lovers.
Want to see the "uncommercially packaged side" in the current life in first-tier cities;
Third, thematic followers.
cares about the life choices of singles, pays attention to their public opinion atmosphere, their pressure and thinking, and even only cares about the "self who is still single".
This film has been shown very few times.
Is it a pity to miss it, maybe.
If you are in the above three categories.
"Pearl" has been released today, so you might as well buy a ticket to try it out in the cinema.
If you are not among these three types of people, you might as well continue to look down.
Dishes are always served to those who love it.
Let’s see how these guys in the editorial department tasted.
I am the dividing line of the editorial team theater team construction site
@ poison Sir 1 _strong for the heroine in the movie span2span 1 _strong p10strongFor this single young woman, there are actually two "worlds".
The one in your own eyes, the one in the eyes of others.
There are also two "self", the self in the eyes of others, and the self in the eyes of others.
Especially in Guangzhou where the traditional marriage consciousness is strong.
If a woman does not marry after an age, it is "something wrong".
has conditions to choose not to choose, which is even more confusing (the female protagonist is in good condition, and some people pursue it).
The heroine figured it out, but the onlookers couldn't understand, so there was a contradiction.
Onlookers can’t figure it out, the volume is getting louder, and the heroine can’t figure it out. There is confusion about the future...
Several "opposing elements" are made.
The director did not give these to the story or dialogue.
hides behind it, and only uses the lens to gently and restraintly convey it to the interested audience.
There are objective shots of the heroine, which may come from the objective world or her under the scrutiny of others.
The subjective lens of the female subjective perspective, it may be the world she sees, and what she feels.
personally think,Looking at the handling of these "oppositions" is the most interesting aspect of this film, and we can also see the director's deep intentions.
In other words, the most "pearl" place is also here.
As a male director, he may not be able to reveal the answer and direction of the story.
But telling a woman’s story like caring for a pearl is in itself a respect for reality.
(The PS heroine is actually very affectionate in Guangdong, because more than ten or twenty years ago, she was the heroine of the Cantonese local urban sitcom " urban laughter group". Although this film is not her own experience, although it is fictitious, it seems to have a grounded sense of reality.)

The biggest advantage of the movie , Lies in the director's extreme respect for this female character.
Because there is no prejudice, or even the desire to beautify, you can enter the heroine's heart without preparation, feel all her confusion and entanglement, even in these tens of minutes, a little bit of life Her illusion.
But the biggest shortcoming of the movie may also be this, because the typicality of the heroine is actually very weak.
From beginning to end, you feel that you have entered the heroine, and it seems that you have just entered a chaos. However, the subject of the movie's attention has a certain basis in reality. It wants to complete a puzzle about the love of older young people, so the reason for the play, is not that the character cannot stand, but that the character is missing.
Besides, you might think she is prejudiced or burdened with this character.
I am also an older girl, so why do I hate her too? ! So that she didn't really understand the role, so she also had a sense of fragmentation.
On the contrary, the two girlfriends around her are acting in their true colors and have limited roles. Although the values are more traditional and the language is more marketable, they are more lovely and vivid.
@惯之王阿姨
For every age group, there are a lot of people who don’t want to get married. "Pearl" uses a 40-year-old girl to ask the question of "marriage anxiety" to the end: You don't even have hormones, why not get married? What are you still afraid of?
Don’t think that this question is too far away from you, I assure you, "Pearl" uses its gentleness to give an answer for all ages. It shaves away those noises and distractions thoughtfully and delicately (such as the cost is too high, such as men’s not good,Such as freedom), and try to say "it is not necessary" in your heart.
One of my warmest episodes is that Sister Pearl spends time with her sisters first, but is indifferent to the beautiful little wolfdogs around her. She is tired. Immediately after the next scene, she was moved by the square dance on the side of the road. The stylishly dressed woman followed the grandfather and auntie next to her and danced happily.
This makes me warm, because I will eventually get old-all saying "Don't walk into that good night gently", but when you walk out of the night in doubt, It can also be joyful during that square dance.
Yes, don’t be afraid, you are not that alone.

First bright conclusion: Uncle Sao Ruiyun, I don't like "Pearl".
All the good feelings about "Pearl" come from the real
When the hostess received a sick call from her mother and cried, she dangled anxiously at her feet; chatted with her girlfriend on the rooftop barbecue and complained about her misconduct. , I actually bought a wooden sign that is easy to bake; because I met a cute dog and squatted and teased, I came into the store to patronize her claypot rice after chatting with the proprietress...
△ For the dog The dog named Gugu, a pretty Cantonese girl hahaha
makes me feel that she is indeed living a solid life in this city (the truth is also true),Kind and vivid.
The disappointment is precisely that the movie overly indulges for these real fragments, allowing them to roam in these 98 minutes.
For ordinary audiences, the story of "Pearl" is not friendly and patient enough. Pearl has spread too bluntly about the process of "love and marriage" from incomprehension, resistance, anxiety to self-reconciliation. If it is a documentary, I think I can forgive it, but as a feature film, I think the director can do more and better.
@卡卡西式 Roleplaying
I have watched three feature films directed by Yunzhong, and I have watched the starring Hu Xiangzhen and the show previously hosted by Hu Xiangzhen . My feeling is familiar and unique .
I am from Guangzhou, but when the camera crosses the mountaintop platform of the radio station and the high traffic inner ring appears in the distant view, I still feel novel about the urban space here; I will go for a walk along the Pearl River, but when I am a pearl When the high-end KTV out of the Pearl River New Town rejoined the Riverside Square Dance Company, I still couldn't help but envy those simple and energetic uncles and aunts.
I am a boy, but when I see Pearl face the pressure of marriage and still have to compete secretly with the man next door in a yoga class, I still realize her difficulty and tenacity.
Generally speaking, the individual paragraphs are slightly deliberate in line design, and the whole is a comfortable, interesting and scarce local sketch.
I am the dividing line of the end of this round of team building
There are still some words, from long-lost friends who are also Sir’s old friends and the director of "Pearl".
