tearjerker director

Chapter 1243 Use a special gesture to make life wonderful
With the release of "Harmony", it is inevitable that the group of female prisoners has been repeatedly mentioned.

This is completely different from the original "Gift in Room No. [-]".

Because at that time, the male protagonist in "The Gift of Room No. [-]" was not that kind of conventional prisoner, and it was completely different from the female protagonist in "Harmony".

Moreover, there is a big difference between male criminals and female criminals.

In terms of the sex ratio of crime, the male to female crime ratio is nine to one.

Therefore, it can be said that male offenders belong to the more conventional type of criminals, and relatively speaking, female offenders appear to be more irregular.

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 also a woman who breastfeeds a child.

In addition, domestic laws and regulations are very different from those of Hong Kong Island, so it naturally aroused a lot of discussion.

Because even if pregnant women in China are sentenced, they are almost always executed outside prison.

It is difficult to say which system is better and which is more humane.

But it is precisely because of this that it can arouse more discussions.

Back to the movie itself.This film is undoubtedly more friendly to many female film critics.

Many female film critics couldn't help typing their keyboards and writing down their thoughts immediately after watching the film.

Yao Yan, deputy editor-in-chief of "Film Weekly", interpreted "Harmony" from another angle in the column.

"I remember someone said that everyone will always encounter a certain type of movie. You don't care so much about the acting, you don't care about the plot, and you don't care about the picture so much. Blowing your nose with tears.

Just because some of its details touched your best side.

This was true of "The Gift of Room No. [-]" back then, and it is undoubtedly true of "Harmony" today.

In such a big world, there will always be things that make you powerless, heartbreaking and hopeless, so you have to learn to give up.If you are a kind woman with dreams and dignity, then unfortunately, you need to give up more.

They are that kind of people, a group of people who are subtly driven by life.I used to be slack and tired, but one day I had to rebel and resist.

It can be said that "Harmony" is a movie with a very subtle entry point. There are prison movies, but there are few such "Harmony" where the entry point is a group of female prisoners.

In our society, people who have been in prison are usually mentioned. Most of the time, they are men, but few people pay attention to female prisoners.

Maybe it's because there is a big difference in the crime ratio between men and women?

Although both male criminals and female criminals were arrested and imprisoned for committing crimes, there are still differences between males and females in many aspects.

If in the men's prison, there are so many prisoners who have no choice but to commit crimes like in "Harmony", and all of them commit homicide, maybe they will be told lies in 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 being in love with men, although these days may never exist or are 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 dry.

What they lost was the peaceful heart that was pampered like a woman's flower.

It is these losses that keep them protected by a small iron wall, a space where men dominate tragedy.

What they have left is pure and bright family affection, ideals and joy.Still retain the longing for love, strong strength, relieved mind, and longing for the future.

And music.

The title of the film is "Harmony", and it uses music as the title, perhaps to tell the audience that music, like motherhood, is the greatest grace God bestows on women.

Wen Yu, a music professor at the university, Hua Jie, a former folk singer, Yanshi, a former professional wrestler who fantasizes about romantic stories all day long, 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, Xiaoyu, who loves to laugh, began to cry aggrievedly.

The part where Yumi sang while sitting by the window, and the part where Yumi sang 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 smiled by herself, and then made gestures to make everyone smile.

The female prison guard, in a daze, played the piano for the choir, and sang fiery and exciting music.

In the end, they saw the person they missed in the pure white dress performance.

This is their most beautiful moment.

And the most beautiful woman in the film is the old lady who was originally a music professor.

"My heart is very tired, and I am also tired, but since it is already like this, why don't you live with a smile when you are alive, always because you miss some people, and you are very tired; thinking of some past events, you are very tired. When we are together, we are tired When we are together, we talk together. When we miss, we cry together."

"Laugh even if you want to die and cry. Only when you laugh your children will laugh. People who should meet will always meet one day. For that day, you can't do this."

I have always had an inexplicable sense of awe for the elderly, a kind of awe for life.

The beauty of the old lady is that she has always played the role of mother, and for 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 what she thinks is meaningful.

It is precisely because she treats them like her own daughters that she looks even more beautiful. It is a sincere beauty, a beauty that belongs only to mother's love.

After she soberly saw the meaningless truth of life, she still didn't get tired of it, didn't deny it, still loved it, and blessed it.As time passed, she was still beautiful, indifferent, optimistic, strong and passionate.

There are many places in this movie that are too beautiful, even as beautiful as exaggerating human nature. The layout of the prison is fresh and beautiful, and there are many storage boxes. The inmates get along better than the girls in the dormitory. There are no major conflicts, the warden is still kind-hearted, and he is dedicated to helping these vulnerable groups, and even has the meaning of developing into friends.

These beautiful places are too false, human nature is not too evil, and there is not so much goodness.Paying 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 feelings and the beauty we tied were shattered in the joint deception. How ridiculous our care for the long-term relationship seems in this relationship. It’s ridiculous. I still think of your pair Old shoes, it’s ridiculous. I thought we really had gradually delivered our sincerity to each other. What’s ridiculous is that in front of my sincerity, you still pretended to be so similar, but in a blink of an eye it was completely subverted. The teacher’s anger and irrationality, one is The betrayal of the husband's feelings, the second is the betrayal of the female assistant's trust in him, and the third is that this kind of dirty thing does not distinguish between the occasion and the place, regardless of the child's rampant.Under these circumstances, it's hard to blame a mother, a woman who would be cruel, and then gritted her teeth and made a one-and-done behavior.

Of course, movies are always too coincidental. The performance that was canceled temporarily, and then the decision to cancel the performance was temporarily changed. The time when the daughter appeared in the venue with her grandson was too accurate. You might say that maybe it was there already, It's just that the camera is turned to her at this time.But it doesn't matter, it's a small detail, nothing to argue about.

I just feel that the last part when the music teacher was about to die and was allowed to go home changed a bit quickly. The daughter was so resolute before, hating the painful and humiliating childhood brought by the crime of hating her mother. In this kind of childhood, she had already Forgetting that her mother was loved and sheltered, she only remembered other people's pointing and pointing. Even if she had to visit, it was full of accusations and humiliation. She turned her hatred into stinging words and shot her at her mother. The pain on her mother's face might not let her Feeling happy, but alleviating her resentment.

Those "gas" that she had to take over.Everyone has self-esteem and vanity. A daughter's love for her mother is consumed by others, but at the end of the film, the daughter is still overcome by the love in her heart. Years of estrangement and ice, but freezing three feet is not a day's cold , Melting is so easy.Maternal love is indeed great, but children's love for their parents is often behind themselves.

In addition, Yumi's mother is also a moving character. I think when her daughter killed her husband, she should not be angry, but panicked. She thought that in the midst of each other's grievances, she could live a peaceful life. , but she didn't know that human beings are animals that push their feet. Maybe the stepfather was acquiesced in the abuse of them again and again, so he simply let go of his courage. The daughter's not wanting to see her mother should not be resentment, but just experiencing such things. Everyone needs a period of time to repair themselves. There is a saying that if a person wants to kill someone, he must first kill himself at the human level.

But I think these words are aimed at murder, not manslaughter. Manslaughter in self-defense makes the soprano live in pain, but if you give her another chance, she should still kill her stepfather.Her refusal to meet her mother again and again is a evasion of this painful memory again and again. The scene of mother and daughter embracing each other at the end of the performance is more of the realization that I still want to love you in this helpless fate.I love you, even if the pain comes from you, I think maybe this is the greatness of love.

In fact, "Harmony" is not so realistic. After seeing many people watching the movie on the Internet, they picked the thorns in it.

Life in prison is very beautiful, so beautiful that I am 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 be entangled in the truth of the matter, but follow your heart, I believe it will give you a different experience.

Here I think I should thank Director Li Yi!In the difficult real life, seeing such a nerve-numbing movie made me feel in a trance 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 will be bad people in the world. Those so-called bad people are forced and not voluntary. The sleeping kindness needs you to use your warmth to influence it!
Don't worry about whether such a thing really happened, just ask if it has touched you deeply, made you burst into tears inadvertently, and made you deeply feel that the world should be so beautiful!

But at the end of the film, this fiction was brought back to reality, and the mother's beloved son was still sent away abruptly!
The old music professor is still dead, but even with such a sad ending, the goodwill conveyed by the movie cannot be erased. We can’t escape the rules of life, so why bother to break free from them, I just hope that every step we take is correct Yes, even if you make a mistake, just make up for it as much as possible, and you must not 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 that important to be true or not?Now even the news is fake, what else is real?Emotions are the most real, warm emotions, full of sunshine and the power of influence are positive energy. The positive energy of this film is enough to influence those who have lost their footing, and it will also make those who are about to lose their footing stop. I guess, whether it works or not , Let's see the curative effect!
I think people should condemn the crime itself, not the person who committed the crime. There are some criminals who commit crimes because of unavoidable reasons.To put it bluntly, forming a "choir" is a way to promote communication between people, so that these physically and mentally exhausted people can resonate with each other and believe in the truth, goodness and beauty in the world again.It is not only the prisoners who have been baptized in their hearts, but also those prison officers who are unsmiling all day long.I hope that everyone can understand the true meaning behind the singing while watching the video. "

There are many other reviews like this one.

This is really not from Fanhai Film and Television, or Li Yi's public relations.

"A good movie often earns enough tears from the audience, I don't deny it, crying until the eyes are swollen.

But I don't know how to describe this movie, praising mother's love?respect for human rights?Eliminate status discrimination?

To be honest, I haven't thought about it carefully, my head has been in a state of confusion

But I know that in it, the story makes us feel that no matter what mistakes you have made, you are a good mother to your children, a good daughter of your mother, and you cannot deny everything about you just because of one mistake of yours!
The prisoner was forced to take off his clothes for inspection. The chief of the police station tried his best to protect him, and felt extremely distressed!
Together, a group of murderers saw the frailty and love of human nature.

Music is the most resonant, even if I can't understand whether the singing is good or not, I should cry in this situation. In the end, nothing changed dramatically. The child was adopted by others, the old The music professor died without much regret.

Life is already like this, let us walk on with a smile.Yes, no matter what, make life wonderful with a special gesture. "
