"Your Love Song," which has just been released, may be the freshest touch of color on the screen at the end of this summer.
This simple little love song sings the twists and turns of director An Zhujian and starring Fu Mengbai, Ke Jiayi, and Xie Bo's anxin.
Fu Mengbai plays xing zhiyuan, a teacher who is unmotivated, who is transferred to Hualien and hopes to let everyone see his teaching ideals through the draft competition.
Yu Jing, a music teacher played by Ke Jiahui, self-exiled away from Taipei because of her boyfriend's leg splitting.
By chance, they met a student with singing talent, Li Dongshuo, played by Xie Bo'an.
This time, we also interviewed the heroine Ke Jiayi, through whom we also learned more about the movie "Your Love Song".
In her opinion, "Your Love Song" is a music healing film.
To heal, the premise is that the characters in the story have their own knots and problems. Indeed, in the story, everyone has their own burdens and has been carrying the weight forward.
But in the director's treatment, it is not to turn these heavy parts into a plot of spilling dog blood, but to reveal the prehistory of the characters little by little inadvertently.
This way of dealing with it creates a sense of immersion, as if we are also the people in the first acquaintance story, in the process of getting to know each other, we gradually find that they are not superficially happy and open-minded, but have been silently enduring the heaviness of life.
The biggest feeling that this movie gives people is that it is very life flowing. Everything is so faint and faint, and people also learn to accept silently and continue to move forward silently.
In fact, the more cloudy the story, the stronger the hidden emotional tension. The same is true of "Your Love Song", a simple deep, hidden endless undercurrent.
One of the scenes that I remembered the most was a crying scene by Ke Jiahui.
She planned to make an important decision alone, but she met Xie Bo'an, who had secretly followed her, and saw a familiar face in the vast sea of people, with an insignificant excuse on her mouth, but she cried out at once.
This is a catharsis for Yu Jing's character who has suppressed negative emotions for a long time, and she can finally let herself collapse once.
Ke Jiayi was also deeply impressed by this plot, but in addition to the reasons for the plot, she said that when she was filming in the city center, there were really many passers-by around, which also caused a certain psychological pressure to her performance. She describes focusing on acting in this situation as like an uphill battle.
Seeing the combination of two men and a woman, I probably understand that there must be a love triangle.
The triangle is a solid structure, and it is also the same in the structure of the script, and the character setting of two men and one woman is a classic model.
Among these three people, there is also a difference in age, Yu Jing and Xing Zhiyuan are both so-called adults, and Li Dongshuo is a high school student.
And the three characters each have their own symbols of each other, the two adults are naturally already in a stable state, they know what they want, they know the way to move life forward, although they have encountered setbacks, they have to stop, and it is time to start again.
Xing Zhiyuan is the embodiment of idealism, he insists on his ideals, whether in the "Dragon Country" Taipei, or as far as Hualien, he wants to prove that his ideals can be realized.
Yu Jing is more like a representative of sensualism, and the life she craves is plain happiness, a happy family, but the simpler things are, the more difficult it seems to be to achieve.
Li Dongshuo, who is still a high school student, seems to be caught between the two.
The ideal of young people is more of a desperate love, but when he walks to the big stage from a small place and sees this big world with his own eyes, his state of mind also begins to change, and he seems to have found his ideal direction.
The adults who seem to be the most mature are actually easily impressed by the most sincere children.
Putting such an important plot as vocalization on a high school student represents a call from the heart. His singing reminds the two adults to find the melody of their own lives and continue to compose this melody.
Just like Ke Jiayi described Yu Jing's decision to leave Taipei for Hualien, it was not an escape, but a kind of bravery.
When many people encounter a low tide, they want to let go of everything and start again, but often there are too many scruples to really let go.
But Yu Jing has such courage that she can really follow her heart.
Looking at this movie from this perspective, everyone has everyone's bravery.
Xing Zhiyuan's persistence is a kind of bravery, especially in this era of material desires, not caring about fame and fortune but the result of sincerity, which is a rare and valuable bravery.
Li Dongshuo's singing is also a kind of bravery, he dares to make his own voice, dares to use his own voice to infect others.
The name of the movie is "Your Love Song", and naturally there are many memories in the story, these songs once accompanied our youth, and also accompanied the story in the movie, witnessing their youth.
Of course, it is inevitable to ask Ke Jiayi twice, is there a love song that she likes?
Her answer is Teresa Teresa's "I Only Care About You."
I tried to gossip about it, is the choice of this song related to her own concept of feelings? She said no, like is just like.
It seems that sometimes, and it is true, it doesn't take much empathy for the story, like a song, just like a song. Not because of similar emotions and experiences, but pure liking.
Sometimes pure, but more sincere and warm.
