"I may be homeless, but it's not worthless" – "Turbid Drifting"
The shortest and most powerful line in the whole film also exhausts the bitterness of marginalized people who have been abandoned by mainstream social values. They slept on the streets, wore ragged clothes, held up banners against the government, and let go of their self-esteem to be ridiculed.
The burning wooden house at the end of the film seems to have also burned the foundation of a society, and the down-and-out addict who died without reconciling with the government sublimated his soul in the fire. Compared with the grand narrative that makes the whole country rejoice, such a movie listens to thunder in the silent place.
The fish in the fish tank have to survive by changing the water and feeding, which is also the metaphor of the bottom group.
The so-called new Hong Kong film, which pays more attention to a social care mood, the mood of the whole film is completely driven by performance, so some plots are too depressing to judge the direction of the plot.
The use of closed composition and the transformation between a large number of active and passive music creates an illusory sense of contrast. If the recent cohen's film is a song of the wanderer, it is better to say that this film is a collection of the wanderer.
Ah Hui's death is inevitable, he exists because Ping gathers to embrace the joy of heaven, and his departure is because he is scattered into a widow. They have the necessity of their existence, the power of the individual gradually pollutes the image of the group, the process of pulling people into the water is actually just fear of loneliness, and what this phenomenon needs, the answer is written in the opening sentence.
The last dignity remained by the burning of the shacks, and he fought with his own life against the era of financial explosions; the turbid word in the turbid water drift was not only a noun, but also a verb, and perhaps they did not want to do so, but they could only drift with it, wandering.
"Turbid Water Drifting" is not as painful and deliberate as "A Thought of Ignorance", but it is not as lifelike and easy to perceive as "Sister Peach" and "Day and Night in Tin Shui Wai".
In fact, from the theme and shooting method, there is a bit of a shadow of American independent films, fragmented and loose, but once it comes to the part of resistance and stubbornness, it returns to the usual rhythm of this kind of Hong Kong film.
Yes the cry of the Sham Shui Po is heard, and there is also social significance, but it is still somewhat shallow and falls into personal expression. He Girl is a bit stunning, but there are still many acting skills that need to be sculpted, especially in front of the bones of the play.
The portraits of displaced people composed of addicts, refugees, troubled youths, prostitutes, etc., have the meaning of sweeping away the remnants of society, reminiscent of Chen Guo before and after 1997.
Like "There's a Hollywood in Hong Kong", both of which portray high-end condos as an unattainable shore at the bottom, Wu Zhenyu pees on the entire city on the tower crane, presumably influenced by the scene of Zhou Xundang's swing.
Of course, imagination and the angle of cutting into the problem are not the same, there is a concern for society, there is no artistic intelligence, can only be said to be a boring correct.
Human dignity, as the basic value of the law, becomes a basic value precisely because it is difficult to realize. However, it can almost be said that justice that cannot be achieved in ways other than the law is often even more unattainable by law, such as equality under the disparities in various realities such as class.
This is not hypocrisy, but a certain inevitable sadness, because whatever is promised, it is possible to guarantee that what is said is done only if the legislator is or controls both the judiciary and the law enforcement, and this must be avoided, otherwise the law will fall into the hands of a certain subject and will be completely reduced to toys and torture devices.
In other words, the Fa is at one end absolute power and at the other end is the axis of absolute impotence. If modern law has and expects progress, it is to find a more appropriate place on this axis (which is actually a political rather than a legal process), but since it is on the axis, there is a partial weakness.
Whether it is complete chaos that is allowed or what absolute power can do, it is difficult to pass the law. But it is still meaningful, because the delineation of a boundary, so that the illegal has an end, the complete realization of the value of the law is possible. Just in the face of people's stubborn disappointment, it is inevitable to sigh the innocence and feel unworthy of it.
The structure of the narrative film, the perspective of the documentary. The advantage is very clear is the character's desire - the despair of seeing his son for the rest of his life, the selfishness (the normal side of human nature) that can tear his face for money, the numbness after successfully going to the house, the powerlessness of the perspective of the social worker God, the anger of preferring to fight for a mouthful, and so on.
It is a pity that too many sources of anger are displayed through press conferences and character dictations, making people blurred between true and false. On the whole, it is still quite good, but this emotional experience is too far away for us, and we feel ignorant, powerless, and unable to do everything like the perspective of God symbolized by Miss He.
If you are not moved after watching the movie, it is not surprising that this movie is more about showing the real situation of the wanderers, making people feel miserable and cruel. Worthless people also need an apology. Such humble people are generally not apologized, and the shouts under the viaduct are only masked by the noise of passing vehicles. If you are not convinced, you can also burn the elaborate wooden house, but unfortunately, after the fire burns out, it is just another dirty dust.
Thank you for watching, paying attention to me, and taking you to learn more entertainment stories!
