Hey, does mom's constant praise really express Jia Ling's feelings for mom?

Yesterday, I watched the movie Hi Mom, and I was very moved. I wrote this down to share with you.

The theme we have seen in the past is either for love or for family revenge. It's rare to see someone crossing back for their family.

The film Hi Mom was created by Jia Ling in memory of his mother who died in a car accident. 、

Affectionate Li Huanying is the name of Jia Ling's mother. In the film, Jia Ling traveled to 198 1 year before her birth and met her mother in her prime. Therefore, Jia Ling, who knew that she might soon lose her mother, tried her best to help her live an ideal life with the experience of future people.

This process of knowing the result but not giving up the effort is touching and sad.

? A person living in the 2 1 century suddenly goes back to the 1980 s more than 30 years ago, and there are bound to be many jokes in which ideals and reality are frequently misplaced, which makes people laugh.

The fashionable jeans with holes are mistaken for the children of poor families, who can't afford to wear New Pants.

Someone asked when Jia Ling was born, and Jia Ling blurted out, "82 years." The other party was shocked: "Next year?"

These jokes can be seen everywhere in the film. Where there is Jia Ling, there is no shortage of laughter.

In those days when the details were true, TV sets were purchased by ticket, and movie tickets were separated by even and odd numbers. "Realizing the Four Modernizations" is the most striking propaganda slogan on the factory wall. Most people wear blue clothes with a strong brand of the times.

These details not only truly restored the life state in the early 1980s, but also let the audience in front of the screen, like Jia Ling, travel back together, experience the youthful and passionate time of their parents, and feel some rigid but kind and simple pulse of the times.

Unfortunately, as we all know, flowers need pruning to look good, and articles are wonderful. The same is true of movies.

In the second half of the film, Jia Ling expressed her grief over the loss of her mother too strongly, which made the audience who were extremely involved in the plot think of Jia Ling in life from Jia Linglian in the film and act unconsciously.

Why do you say that?

Because in the movie, before Jia Ling crossed back, his mother was still in the rescue, and the breath of life was not interrupted. Although the doctor told my mother that there was little hope of survival, there was still a glimmer of hope.

Therefore, according to common sense, Jia Ling, who came back through this time, should have great expectations for her mother's future.

There is a scene in the film in which Jia Ling and his young mother have a heart-to-heart talk in a pub and talk about each other's vision for a better future.

In this scene, according to normal logic, the character's state should be red eyes and tears in his smile: although life is bitter, as long as he has a mother, the taste is very sweet.

However, during the chat, Jia Ling heard her mother talk about her hope that her future children would be "healthy and happy", but her tears were falling.

Although this tearful state truly shows Jia Ling's feelings for his mother, it immediately exposes the logical loopholes in the narrative and conveys a clear fact to the audience: Jia Ling's mother has actually gone for a long time.

Because, Jia Ling's tears, which are constantly gushing out, are obviously the concentrated outburst after the feelings of missing her mother have accumulated in her heart for too long, rather than the true feelings revealed after being touched by her mother's initial heart.

This kind of consciousness will make the audience wake up instantly: they are not experiencing a life, but watching a performance.

This change will also make the audience immediately withdraw from the immersive experience, from * * * to sympathy for the characters, from the participants of the story to the bystanders.

This description invisibly weakens the simplicity of the role of mother, which is somewhat out of place with the affectionate theme.

To sum up this film, it is an excellent achievement of a new director. For a mother, nothing is more gratifying than this.
