Today is October 25th, but also the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, we all know that this day is our traditional Chongyang Festival, folk have the custom of ascending, so chongyang festival is also known as "ascending festival", because the "nine nine" harmonic is "long-lasting" has a long meaning, so we often worship the ancestors on this day or carry out activities to respect the elderly. On December 28, 2012, China's laws clearly defined the ninth day of the ninth month of the ninth lunar month as the Day of the Elderly. The greatest significance of this festival is: respect for ancestors, respect for the elderly and gratitude.
I believe that on this day many people will return to their parents, drink with the elderly or go on an outing... Happiness turns out to be so simple.
Sadly: my parents left us more than a decade ago, and today, I can only go to their tombstones in the early morning to worship the two people who hurt me the most in the world, and it has always been my dream to see each other again in another world...

Today I want to talk to you about a relatively niche movie "The Person Who Loved Me in the World Went", I have asked many people, everyone is not very familiar with this movie, it is a warm film directed by Ma Liwen, who was still very young at the time, and starring big stars: Sichengaova, Huang Suying, gong Beiyuan.
First, let's introduce the story of the movie: her mother died, and the female writer in her 50s remembered the last days she spent with her mother, and suddenly understood that the person who hurt her the most in the world had gone. Busy with his own career and family, Ha saw his mother's old gait, trance look and almost blind vision, suddenly realized that his mother was old, Ha took his mother to the hospital for examination, and then did brain surgery, the operation was successful, the vision was quickly restored, but the mother's condition did not improve, due to the lack of exercise, the mother's brain atrophy is getting more and more serious, in order to control the mother's condition, Ha bought a treadmill for the mother to start exercising, the mother actively cooperated with ha various almost harsh requirements, However, the mother's situation is getting worse.
Although the name of the film "The Person Who Loved Me in the World Went" is relatively long, it is precisely because of its length that people are remembered, this film was released in China on October 28, 2002, and I watched this movie in the cinema under the guidance of a director friend.

When the film was released, my mother had just left us, and in the process of watching the movie, I couldn't help but cry a few times... Yesterday I watched this film again made me feel more empathy, before we were young and crazy, I didn't know the sky was high, for the parents who gave birth to me and raised me felt that they were taken for granted, at that time we didn't know how to carefully understand their mood, didn't know that there was time to accompany them more, even if it was a fight together... Now, we are all beginning to grow old, slowly moving towards aging and death, this time we began to hope that our children can live with us, we have been inseparable from those children who make us happy and sad, man, why are we always so confused?
Back to this movie, the film "The Person Who Loved Me in the World" can be called the biggest tear bomb movie of the year, but the director did not deliberately tear up, nor did he make it into a second-rate sensational movie, the middle-aged female writer's love for her old mother and the way of love to the extreme hate iron is not steel, and her rebellious psychology and kind and good wishes constitute the main force of this film. Through various stories between the protagonist and the dying mother, the film inspires people to pay attention to caring for their surviving parents, so that parents do not leave the world with regrets, and do not regret themselves after their parents leave.
We often hear such words: when the old man is alive, be more filial, do not make them angry, and do not regret it after they die because of filial piety. However, this is simple to say, but everyone does not do it that way, and now people always use their busy work and life pressure to explain the lack of care for their parents, in fact, these are all.
At this time, although parents say that they do not need children to take care of them, nor do they need to let children spend more money, in fact, they need children to take care of them the most, young people do not understand, and older people should understand these very deeply. I have always said that man is a new and tired of the old animal, to their own children can pour all their care and love, but to their parents will be greatly discounted, this is the biggest mistake, should be changed the mistake, today is the Chongyang Festival, you may go to accompany your parents, but tomorrow?
Such a serious film was made in 1996, when director Ma Liwen began to plan to make Zhang Jie's novel "The Man Who Hurt Me The Most In the World" into a movie, which began to be filmed in 1998 and stranded due to financial problems... In 2001, director Ma Liwen remade her film debut, The Man Who Hurt Me the Most. The film won the Best Director Award at the 14th China Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival and the Outstanding Chinese Feature Film Award, Best Director and Best Supporting Actress at the Changchun International Film Festival.
Subsequently, director Ma Liwen began filming her second work in Beijing, "The Two of Us", which tells the story of a lonely old man living in a courtyard because he rented out his house to a girl who came to Beijing to study.
The star of the movie "The Two of Us", Ms. Jin Yaqin, won the Best Actress Award at the 18th Tokyo Film Festival and the Best Director Award and Best Actress Award at the 14th Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival.
The production of the film "The Two of Us" is not complicated, most of the scenes are limited to the Beijing Courtyard, and the storyline is simple and clear, and its benefits are all in the word "love", director Ma Li created a very wonderful romance sketch film, and this genre is not the strength of many Chinese mainland directors. "The Two of Us" gives the audience a few strokes of feeling, sparse and natural. In fact, life is not filming TV, where there are so many fights and killings, noisy and kitsch, in fact, most people in life for the expression of emotions are quite stingy, the real feelings are not from any typical examples, but every bit of bumps in life, and warmth, although all this is due to companionship, but still so beautiful...
When I was a child, I lived in a courtyard in Beijing, a family of ten people crammed into a few bungalows, although life was hard at that time, but also happy and harmonious... Now we have all moved out of the courtyard and lived in a building where even the neighbors don't know anyone, are you happy? In the past few years, when we watched the TV series "Love Full Courtyard", "Jinshui Bridgeside" and "I Love My Home", we were very envious of such a life, in fact, living a life is living a life, and we can't live with our parents and children, what a big regret?
This beautiful woman with the camera is the director Ma Liwen, and we hope that she will continue to make quiet and touching movies...
