Chapter 1,243 Use special gestures to make life wonderful
With the release of "Harmony", it is inevitable that the group of female prisoners will be mentioned frequently.
This can be said to be completely different from the original "The Gift of Room No. 7".
Because at that time, the male protagonist in "The Gift of Room 7" was not a conventional prisoner, and was completely different from the female protagonist in "Harmony".
Moreover, there are also big differences between male criminals and female criminals.
In terms of the gender ratio of crime, the ratio of male to female crime is nine to one.
Therefore, it can be said that male criminals are relatively conventional criminals, while female criminals are relatively unconventional.
As for women, the word motherhood will inevitably be mentioned. After all, it is a woman who gives birth to a child, and it is a woman who breastfeeds the child.
In addition, domestic laws and regulations are very different from those on Hong Kong Island, so it naturally triggered a wave of discussions.
Because even if pregnant women in China are sentenced, they are almost always served outside prison.
It’s hard to say which of the two systems is better and which is more humane.
But it is precisely because of this that it can lead to more discussions.
Back to the movie itself. This movie is undoubtedly more friendly to many female film critics.
Many female film critics couldn't help but hit the keyboard and write down their thoughts after watching it.
Yao Yan, deputy editor of "Film Weekly", interpreted "Harmony" from another perspective in his column.
"I remember someone said that everyone will always encounter a kind of movie. You don't care so much about the acting, the plot, and the pictures. You can't help but watch it over and over again. When you watch it, you always forget it.
Blowing her nose with tears in her eyes.
Just because some of its details touch your kindest side.
This was true for "The Gift of Room No. 7" back then, and it is undoubtedly the same for "Harmony" today.
In such a big world, you will always encounter things that make you powerless, heartbroken and despairing, so you have to learn to give up. If you are a kind-hearted woman with dreams and dignity, then unfortunately, you need to give up
More.
They are just that group of people, a group of people who are subtly driven by life. They used to be lazy and tired, but one day they have to rebel and resist.
It can be said that "Harmony" is a movie with a very subtle entry point. There are not many prison movies, but there are very few movies like "Harmony" where the entry point is a group of female prisoners.
In our society, we usually talk about people who have been in prison. Most of the time, they are men, but few people pay attention to female prisoners.
Maybe it's because the crime ratio between men and women is very different?
Although male criminals and female criminals are both arrested and imprisoned for committing crimes, there are still differences between men and women in many aspects.
If there were so many prisoners in a men's prison who had no choice but to commit crimes, and all of them were murders, like in "Harmony", they might be told that they were lying in a matter of minutes!
But women will not make people feel awkward, because in real life, indeed, many female felons have such helplessness!
They will lose the days of loving each other with men, although these days may have never existed or may be all lies; they will lose the freedom to watch life change day by day, although these freedoms may be shrouded in beasts, desires, or money.
Press and dry.
What they have lost is the inner peace of being pampered like a woman's flower.
It is these losses that allow them to be protected by a small iron wall, which is a tragic space dominated by men.
What is left of them is pure and bright family affection, ideals, and joy. They still retain their longing for love, strong strength, relieved mind, and desire for the future.
And music.
The title of the film is "Harmony", and using music as the title may be to tell the audience that music, like motherhood, is the greatest grace God gives to women.
Wen Yu, who is a music professor at the university, Hua Jie, who worked as a folk singer, Yeon Shi, a former professional wrestler who fantasizes about romantic stories all the time, and Yumi, who locks her heart and refuses to communicate with the outside world, all have music.
As soon as the gentle mother Zhenhui sang, Aixiao Xiaoyu began to cry in grievance.
The part where Yumi sings while sitting in front of the window, and the part where she sings while standing on the stage.
The singing and dancing performance where the choir stood on the stage before Xiaoyu left.
Every time before singing, the old lady smiles to herself and then makes gestures to make everyone smile.
The female prison guard, Mi Mi Hu Hu, plays the piano for the choir and sings fiery and explosive music.
At the end, they saw the person they missed wearing pure white dresses.
These are their most beautiful moments.
The most beautiful woman in the film is the old lady who was originally a music professor.
"My heart is tired, I am tired too, but since this is the case, why not live with a smile while you are still alive? It is always because I miss some people and I am tired; I think of some past events and I am tired. We are all together and we are tired.
When we are together, chat together. When we miss you, cry together.”
"You must laugh even if you want to die and cry. Only when you laugh will your children laugh. The people you should meet will always meet one day. For that day to come, you can't do this."
I have always had an inexplicable sense of awe towards older people, a reverence for life.
The beauty of the old lady is that the role she plays is always that of a mother. To other inmates in the prison, she has always played the role of their mother.
Although her daughter has been unwilling to forgive her, she has never given up and she has been doing things that she thinks are meaningful.
Precisely because she treats them like her own daughters, she appears even more beautiful. It is sincere beauty and the beauty that belongs exclusively to maternal love.
After she clearly saw the truth of the meaninglessness of life, she still was not tired of it, did not deny it, still loved it, and blessed it. As time passed slowly, she was still beautiful, indifferent, optimistic, strong, and enthusiastic.
Many parts of this movie are too beautiful, even exaggerating human nature. The layout of the prison is fresh and beautiful, and there are many storage boxes. The inmates get along better with each other than the girls in the dormitory, and they have a good time. There are no major conflicts. The warden is still kind-hearted and dedicated to helping these vulnerable groups, and even seems to develop into a friend.
These beautiful places are too false, human nature is not too evil, and there is not that much goodness. Giving for nothing seems too idealistic, but you still can't deny that this is a good movie.
It's just that I think the protagonist is not Zhenhui, but this old lady.
When we were young, our firm relationship and the beauty associated with it were shattered in a joint deception. Our long-term concern turned out to be ridiculous in this relationship. It’s ridiculous that I still think about your pair. Old shoes, it's ridiculous. I thought we really had each other and gradually showed our sincerity. What's ridiculous is that in front of my sincerity, you still pretended to be so superficial, but in the blink of an eye, everything was overturned. The teacher's anger and irrationality, firstly, The betrayal of her husband's feelings, the betrayal of her trust by her female assistant, and the third reason that such dirty things are done regardless of the occasion and place, regardless of the child's rampage. Under these circumstances, it is difficult for you to blame a mother, and a woman would Cruel and gritted his teeth, he committed a final act.
Of course, movies are always too coincidental. A performance was canceled at short notice, and then the decision to cancel the performance was changed temporarily. The time when the daughter appeared at the venue holding her grandson was so precise. You might say that she might have been there a long time ago. It's just that I gave her the camera at this time. But it doesn't matter, it's a small detail and there's nothing to argue about.
I just feel that the scene at the end when the music teacher was about to die and was allowed to go home changed a bit quickly. The daughter was so determined and hated the painful and humiliating childhood that her mother's crime brought to her. In this kind of childhood, she had already Forgetting her mother's original love and protection, she only remembered other people's pointing fingers. Even if she had to come to visit, they were all accusations and humiliations. She turned her hatred into stinging words and shot them at her mother. The pain on her mother's face may not have made her She felt happy, but it alleviated her resentment.
The "anger" she had to take away. Everyone has self-esteem and vanity. A daughter's love for her mother was wasted in other people's mouths, but at the end of the film, the daughter was still defeated by the love in her heart after many years of estrangement and perseverance. Ice, but it takes less than a day to freeze three feet, and it is not so easy to melt. Mother's love is indeed great, but children's love for their parents is often second to themselves.
In addition, Yumi's mother is also a touching figure. I think when her daughter killed her husband, she was not angry, but panicked. She thought that life could go on calmly despite each other's compromise. , but she didn’t know that people are animals who push their limits. Maybe the stepfather simply let go of his courage after being acquiesced in abusing them time and time again. The daughter’s unwillingness to see her mother should not be a complaint, but just experiencing such a thing. Everyone needs time to repair themselves. It is said that if people want to kill someone, they must first kill themselves on a human level.
But I think this sentence is aimed at murder, not manslaughter. Manslaughter in self-defense makes the soprano live in pain, but if you give her another chance, she will still kill her stepfather. She refused to meet her mother again and again,
It is the avoidance of this painful memory again and again. The scene of the mother and daughter embracing each other after the performance is more about the consciousness that I still want to love you in this helpless fate. I love you, even if the pain is caused by you.
Come on, I think this may be the greatness of love.
In fact, "Harmony" is not that realistic. I saw many people on the Internet picking out the thorns in it after watching the movie.
Life in prison is very beautiful, so beautiful that it is even happier than the school I live in now!
But what I want to say is that if you watch this movie, maybe you can try not to dwell on the truth or falsehood of things, but follow your heart. I believe it will give you a different experience.
I think I should thank Director Li Yi! In the difficult real life, seeing such a nerve-numbing movie made me suddenly feel that everything is beautiful.
However, we really need a film like this to awaken the kindness deep in our hearts. In fact, I have never believed that there are bad people in the world. Those so-called bad people are forced to do so and not voluntarily. Deep in their hearts, they
The sleeping kindness needs your warmth to influence it!
Don't worry about whether such a thing really happened. Just ask whether it touched you deeply, made you burst into tears inadvertently, and made you deeply feel that the world should be such a beautiful place!
However, at the end of the film, this fiction was brought back to reality. The mother's beloved son was still sent away abruptly!
The old music professor still died, but even such a sad ending can't erase the goodwill conveyed by the movie. We can't escape the rules of life, so why bother trying to break away from them? I just hope that every step we take is correct.
Yes, even if you make a mistake, just try to make up for it. Never destroy the kindness that lives in your heart!
Some people may say that this is unreal. Hong Kong Island Prison is so good that we all want to experience it. I want to say, is it really important whether it is true or not? Even the news is fake now, what else is there?
Is it real? The most real emotions, warm emotions, full of sunshine and the power of inspiration are positive energy. The positive energy of this film is enough to influence people who have made a mistake, and it will also make people who are about to make a mistake rein in the cliff - I guess
, let’s see if it works well or not!
I think what people should condemn is the crime itself, not the person who committed the crime. There are some prisoners who often commit crimes for unavoidable reasons. To put it bluntly, forming a "choir" is a way to promote communication between people.
These exhausted people resonated with each other and re-believed in the truth, goodness and beauty of the world. It was not only the prisoners who were spiritually baptized, but also the prison officers who were unsmiling all day long. I hope everyone can understand the meaning behind the singing when watching the film.
The true meaning of.”
There are many movie reviews like this.
This is really not from Fanhai Film and Television or Li Yi Public Relations.
"Good movies often make the audience cry. I don't deny that they cry until their eyes are swollen.
But I don’t know how to describe this movie. Does it praise maternal love? Respect human rights? Eliminate status discrimination?
To be honest, I haven't thought about it carefully, my mind has been in a state of confusion
But I know that the story makes us feel that no matter what mistakes you have made, you are a good mother to your children and a good daughter to your mother. You cannot deny everything just because of your one mistake!
The prisoner was forced to take off his clothes for inspection, and the police chief tried his best to protect him, which made him feel extremely distressed!
A group of murderers came together and saw the weakness and love of human nature.
Music is the most resonant. Even if I don’t understand whether the singing is good or not, I should still cry in this situation. In the end, nothing changed dramatically. The child was adopted by others, and the old man was adopted by others.
The music professor died without much regret.
Life is like this, let us go on with a smile. Yes, no matter what, make life wonderful with a special attitude."
