When I was a freshman in college I watched the film Gua Sha Treatment for the first time, now I am a junior student and I come back to review the movie from a multicultural aspect, I have many different feelings after watching the film again.
At the beginning of the film, XuDatong is given an award and later he delivers a speech. What makes me impressed most is in his speech he says “one day I will become one of you, a truly successful American, today this award proved that America is a true land of opportunity and I am the living proof of that.” At that moment Xu thinks he has realized his American Dream totally with his lovingly wife and adorable son. However, I think it is ironical that to make a speech like that and I assume it is made on purpose to hind a clue for the story's development. How many non—American people have such a beautiful American dream? One of my classmate studies in American now and before he went aboard he told me his American dream is he can stand at the top of the New York. To be honest, I also dream that one day I can get the Green Card living there happily and successfully maybe working at the Wall Street. When Xu gets the award he thinks he entirely melted in the melting pot neglecting the multicultural obstruct, later the plot goes against the way he thinks. And later Quinlan asked Xu'why you be the scapegoat of your father?' Xu answers 'because he is Chinese.' Then maybe Xu knows that there is always a wide gap between Chinese and American cultures.
The second scene is Xu hit his son Denis because Denis hit the son of xu's boss, at the middle of the film xu tells his boss that he hit his own son is only to show his respect to his boss John Quinlan, that time Quinlan feels puzzled “what a Chinese logic”,yes, American can never understand such a logic full of Chinese characteristic, because they respect everyone including the children, they won't beat a child to please the boss, and there is no such a conception of degree between employee and employer, they feel everyone is equal, which is quite different from china.
Connected to the second scene, the third difference I want to analyze is the care for the children. In America, people pay more attention to the right of children which can be seen from the law—leaving children alone at home is illegal, while in China it is so common that almost everyone may experience such loneliness. And Children Welfare Agency does work in America which shows the importance Americans attach to children's right. What's more, I remember a line 'No one won the case, especially the child.' In my opinion, it also manifests the universal concern from the American public to the children.
The fourth aspect is following the procedure, in the film, more than there times, the people focus on the rule, the law, the procedure. At the Christmas Eve Xu wants to return back to his home pretending as a Santa Claus, what a pity, the security recognizes him and persuades 'you are always a good tenement, never causes troubles for me.' And another scene is at the end of the film , the judge says 'I have to follow the procedure.' However, in China people always have to ask for a favor to do something, and later you have to pay back the favor,for myself, I prefer the American style, strict to the procedure.
The fifth and the last point is the humors, Quinlan says 'you can't fall, your health security is the company paid.' 'Datong, welcome home, maybe next time, you can come from the front door.' 'dady, why you come from the window' ' because we don't have a chimney.' I really adore this distinguished American humor, especially in dangerous situations, which is quite rare in China.
That's my whole reaction to Gua Sha Treatment.
电影里:初三的男生和女生一开始因为换班主任闹矛盾,又因小米老师和女生关系特别好,男生心里不服气常常找事,男生和女生矛盾不断。后来米老师让男生组建篮球队,女生组建啦啦队,篮球运动增强了同学们的团结。
男生总是那么勇敢、自信和坚强,但在自信坚强的背后也有弱小和可爱。为了班级的荣誉,男生们会不惜一切代价练习打篮球,再苦再累他们也坚持不懈。女生们永远那么乖巧、细心和娇气,在清秀的外表里却有一颗纯洁火热的心。为了集体的.荣誉,她们会狠狠的批评男生,又会狠狠的鼓励男生,积极组建拉拉队为班级加油打气。这是因为,集体的荣誉高于一切。
男生和女生吵完架后去和校外的学生打比赛,女生一开始没去帮他们加油送水,男生都没了精神,连连失利。但是当女生们出现在赛场,为男生跳拉拉队的舞蹈加油后,最后打成平手,大家都很兴奋。这又说明,团结就是力量。
从电影中我看到,人类最强大的力量就是团结!
在我的观影史上,最好的电影都是西方的,后来韩国的一些电影不错,越来越好看,但自从我1988年从美国留学归来,对中国电影的印象却是:还没有到能够看的程度。
回顾中国电影的历史,小时候看过些描写革命战争抗日战争的电影,比如《小兵张嘎》之类的(我们小学的一位长着娃娃脸的小女生还被选中在电影里出演一个群众演员——看小嘎子跟胖墩摔跤。到了文化革命,所有的电影都被禁掉,只剩下八个样板戏,全世界电影史上没有见过的奇观是:为了一个电影的评价和能否上映,中央政治局要开会定夺(以大庆王进喜为原型的《创业》。你能想象美国总统副总统开会定夺一部好莱坞电影能不能上映吗?那个时候大家完全没有电影可看难道不是必然的吗?
改革开放之后我去了美国,回来后看到中国有电影了,也不完全像教育宣传片了,有的竟然能在国际电影节得奖了。我把近年来的获奖电影分成两类,一类是浪漫主义的,一类是现实主义的,前一类如张艺谋的电影;后一类如贾樟柯的电影。这些电影不仅是可以看的,而且已经达到了电影艺术的巅峰。然而,不客气地说,属于商业电影范畴的各种类型片还仅仅处于起步阶段,像郭敬明韩寒的影片甚至都不是专业导演做的,只能说是蹒跚学步(有一次我碰到戴锦华,问她对《小时代》的评价,她老实不客气地对我说:你别跟我提这个,那根本就不是电影。所以我一直觉得,中国的类型片还没到能看的程度。
近年来最火爆的只有搞笑的喜剧片,票房动辄过亿的都是这类,中国观众对于宣传教育片的反弹以一种夸张的形式表现出来,就是除了喜剧片,严肃一点的全都无法接受,没人看。记得《万箭穿心》上映前,营销忽发奇想,想让文化人来帮助宣传下,找了崔健和我去看片,看后想句宣传词。我看后觉得非常好,想的宣传词是:这是曹禺《雷雨》之后最好的一个悲剧。没想到被他们一口否定,原因是:只要在宣传语中出现“悲剧”二字,票房就完全没指望了。难道中国的观众已经完全受不了任何严肃和沉重的话题了?
在这样严酷的环境中,严肃主题的现实主义影片还是在艰难地发展着,我们看到比较成功的例子是《桃姐》,它只是描绘了一个普通的人际关系,一个男人跟他家保姆的故事,但是感人至深。看过《七月与安生》之后,我欣慰地感到:中国的写实主义电影也到了可以看的水准了,而且已经相当好看了。影片描写的是两个女孩的友情,她们爱上了同一个男人,以及后面发生的一系列冲突,悲欢离合。痛苦在折磨和考验着她们的友情,她们的友情命运如何?是中断还是延续?最终是个什么结局?影片从一开始就让人带着这个悬念,从头到尾,不能释怀。一个剧,怕就怕一切在意料之中,情理之外,而这部电影,一切都在情理之中,意料之外。所有的情节让人觉得合理、合适、合乎人物关系的逻辑。就像沈从文有一次所说的,写小说的秘诀就在于“合适”,这是最见功力的地方。
我相信,中国的电影观众除了被宣传受教育和无厘头搞笑之外,也会慢慢成熟起来,而成熟起来的观众需要思考,需要感动,不仅需要被逗笑,还需要跟着剧情流泪,需要能够在自己的人生中引起共鸣的作品。就像那些得奖影片可以被分为浪漫主义和现实主义两类一样,类型片中也有这样两类:在那些悬疑片、喜剧片中,其中的情节都是人一生也不会碰到的事,其中的人物也是人从来不会在现实中遇到的人,这就是浪漫主义的电影。而我相信,人们绝对需要现实主义的影片,需要看到那些自己可能经历到的事,自己在生活中能够遇到的人,看到他们的喜怒哀乐悲欢离合故事,看到那些感人至深发人深省的爱情、亲情和友情。在我看来,《七月与安生》就是这样一部感人至深、发人深省的影片。
所以我想在这里报告大家一个好消息:中国的电影真的能看了。
《七月与安生》并不是一部可以随便就分到青春片或者爱情片范畴内的电影,不是只要有校园成长就一定是说青春,不是有三角恋就一定重点在爱情,本片最打动我的地方就是它没有刻意回避相似电影的桥段,却能在这些桥段中找到一些更深层次的感悟,不是桥段不狗血了,而是创作者不再用以往同类型电影狭隘的眼光来处理这些桥段了。
本片是曾志伟儿子曾国祥的第三部长片作品,对比而言,之前的《恋人絮语》和《最后一夜》都只是新导演的个人习作,难登大雅之堂,而曾国祥这一次却是有了十足的进步,并且在导演功力上显出了自己老道的地方。在各种香港电影里面跑跑龙套,演演男N号的他终于找到了自己导演方面的才华,这真的让人为他感到高兴,又一个值得关注的香港导演崛起了。
曾国祥对于视听语言的把握让整部电影充满了生命力和感染力,这年头看到一部真正具有灵魂的华语电影,真的太不容易了。
《七月与安生》表面上讲述的是一对好闺蜜近20年的分分合合,因为一个男孩,因为生活方式以及人生态度,她们之间爆发的一次次矛盾以及不管怎么撕裂依然彼此依偎的友情。
但是,小爷非常坚定地认为,本片深层讲述的,不仅仅是爱情、友谊、成长,而是人生、命运以及世界上每一个矛盾的自己。
这不是一部仅仅拍摄给女性观众看的电影,而是一个能够触及到每一个人内心的电影。
七月,一个学生时代品学兼优的乖宝宝,过着父母安排好的生活,享受着看得见未来的爱情,如果没有那些变故,她可能会平凡的结婚生子,平凡地工作升值,平凡地死去,生命中唯一的一抹生命力可能就是自己的好闺蜜安生。
安生,一个单亲家庭长大的孩子,放浪不羁,志在四方,她是一个和七月完全不同的存在,一只哪里风大就往哪里飞的.小鸟。她的人生在那些变故之前,只有勇气和自由,她享受的前方无法预知的生活,但是自己有一个唯一避风港,那就是七月。
就是因为七月和安生这两个姑娘如此的不同,才让她们产生了如此深厚的感情,因为,其实她们不过都是伪装者,看似享受自己现在的状态,却又不由地向往着对方的生活。
其实,影片从头到尾最最核心的是两个设置,第一,就是人生的互换,不知不觉中让七月和安生两个人的人生轨迹发生180度的变化,第二,就是过去和小说的两个时空,以网络小说《七月与安生》为回忆的触发点,却又让小说部分产生了一个新的故事维度。正是这两个核心的设置造成了影片的数次反转,虚实之间,爱恨之间,使得整部电影的层次特别丰富,情感的感染力不断递进达到顶点。
其实,小爷不想说太多的剧透和影片宣传呈现的东西,在我看来,本片中的七月和安生其实是一个人,一个人的两面,一面如火,一面如水,不光光是对于每一个女人,对于每一个男生也是一样。
七月象征着安定与平稳,安生象征着冒险和未知,这是人生的两条截然不同的路,我们人生的遗憾在于我们可能只能选择其中的一条路,而七月与安生幸运的是她们可以彼此交换自己的故事甚至换位体验,一个自己活出了两段人生,让彼此成为自己最后的港湾。
七月和安生就是一对矛盾体,在人生的每一个节点,相爱相***,相离相聚,所有的欢笑与苦痛塑造出下一个阶段的自己,每一段经历都可能改变自己的轨迹。
我们每个人都应该想过自己的人生能否如同小说一样精彩吧,不过,因为我们犹豫,我们怂,我们选择了世俗,最后,人生中总是会有各种遗憾。
我知道,
即使我们再放肆,
也不一定能够成为安生,
不一定能环游世界,
不一定可以四海为家
但是,
如果,
仅仅是如果而已,
当我面临选择的时候,
我依然有放肆的冲动,
我也会觉得自己的人生没有白活。
——致每一个活在安生心中的七月以及活在七月心中的安生
绿川幸是我最喜爱的日本漫画家之一。他的漫画作品大多以短篇为主,构思巧妙,因而拥有众多漫迷。
Through her works, my favorite one is Xiamuyourenzhang.
在她的作品中我最喜爱的一部是《夏目友人帐》。
The comic book mainly talks about that the hero Xiamuguizhi has a special ability to see the bogies. He is unsociable because his parents are dead. And he often lives in his relatives' home when he is a little boy and his friends at his age always tease him because he has a special ability. Although he experiences many unfortunate things, he is still very kind and without complaint at anyone. Eventually he is adopted by a couple who is very friendly and let him go to high school. One day, He is pursued by a bogie and hid in a shrine. He breaks a powerful bogie‘s seal whose name is Ban. And that involves her grandmother Xiamulingzi’s relics--a contract that sigh with the bogies. Since then, this powerful bogie turns itself into a cat in daily life to stay with Xiamu to protect him with the condition that Xiamu should give the contract to it after he die. But before that Xiamu decides to try his best to give the name in the contracts to the bogies and let them get free. Thus, a loving, touching, scary story is opened up.
《夏目友人帐》主要讲述了男主人公夏目贵志拥有可以看到妖怪的特殊能力。因为父母双亡他的性格较为孤僻,并且由于他具有特殊的能力,他常辗转在于亲戚之间并被同龄人欺负。虽然他经历了许多不幸,但他依旧有好善良没有埋怨任何人。最终他被有好善良的藤原夫妇收养并进入高中。有一天,他被妖怪追赶躲进神社,不小心打破了一只强大妖怪斑的封印。并牵涉到了他祖母夏目玲子的'遗物—一本同妖怪签订的契约书。之后,这只强大的妖怪平时便变成猫的样子待在夏目身边保护他,但是他的条件是夏目死后要把这本契约书给它。但在此之前夏目决定尽其所能把契约书上的名字还给妖怪们让它们得到自由。由此,一个个温馨、感人、惊险的故事就此展开。
In addition, yuki midorikawa has another special work called Yinghuozhisen is also really moving ,sad and beautiful. I suggest that you all can watch it when you have free time.
此外,绿川幸的另一部作品《萤火之森》同样十分治愈感人建议大家有空可以看看。
When I was very small, I like to watch Mickey Mouse very much. He is so funny and makes me laugh out loudly. Later, I have seen a lot of Disney animation, and all of them attract me. The films that Disney company makes have high quality, and the plots will never let me down. Maybe no other company can please so many children.
在我很小的时候,我就很喜欢看米老鼠。它很有趣,总是可以让我大声笑出来。之后,我看过很多迪斯尼动画,都很吸引我。迪斯尼公司生产高质量的电影,故事情节永远不会让我失望。也许没有其他公司能取悦这么多的孩子。
