Romance films have always been the hardest hit area for bad films, with handsome men and beautiful women but no normal logic.
It's either thundering or dog blood, it's rare to produce a fine product, and "I Heard" is the "first sight" in this "rare".
"Heard" is a small-budget movie.
The script structure is very tacky, basically a set of formulas, nothing more than the identity of the deaf and dumb.
In general, this kind of film is easy to make a mediocre work, because the plot is as bland as water, and the director will force some conflict for the sake of dramatic tension in order to render the mood.
In this way, the movie has become cookie-cutter, with no characteristics to speak of, nothing more than repeating past abortions, tearing, crying, making trouble and hanging themselves three times.
But "Hearsay" did not choose this quick method, but tried its best to be restrained.
The whole film only says "I like you" twice, takes a kiss, and the rest of the part, Tiankuo and Qin Yang, one is trying to get closer, and the other is deliberately evasive.
Because Tiankuo was worried that her family would find it difficult to accept and listen to people, Qin Yang was afraid that her sister Xiaopeng would not be able to live independently after she left, so she would stay away from Tiankuo, who she mistakenly thought was also deaf and dumb.
Both are entangled, but the understanding of their loved ones has contributed to the eventual marriage of a lover.
Tiankuo's parents are open-minded and optimistic, specialize in sign language, deliberately change into formal clothes, and write on paper to show their welcome.
Xiaopeng will temporarily quit the swimming team to work, and actively prepare for the Olympics in four years, so that Yang Yang can bravely pursue his own life.
This text design is made simple.
There is no installation of a third party, no reunion after many years, and no vicious female match and obstruction of parents.
Every character in the film is a good person, they are all actively treating life, they are all loving their families, and they interpret love with sincere love, so that the story is not unconventional, but touching.
The affection and love are very warm and moving, just like a love bento, a chicken leg, a bowl of soup, not a delicious delicacy, but ordinary enough to make people feel delicious.
This is the beauty of simplicity "Hear", without bells and whistles and bloody plots, using almost white depictions to describe a love without sound.
It was not until ten minutes before the end of the movie that the male and female protagonists began to talk, but it was the sublimation of the sweetness of feelings, which made the silence in front become a catalyst for love, and also made the little fresh wind of "Hear" get a high score of 8.1.
"I Heard" is liked, not only because of the high score, but also because the love in it is particularly desirable.
In real life, love has become a clearly priced thing, has long lost its original purity, no matter how deep the love, you have to pay attention to material conditions, which is also one of the main reasons why boys are not willing to chase girls.
Looking for a girlfriend is to find a partner who lives a lifetime, not to find an ancestor for yourself, waiting in front of you all day, beckoning, lingering, and you have to have money, otherwise you will be buttoned up as a Puxin man and carry out a female boxing attack.
And in "Hearsay", people see the long-lost look of love.
In the film, Qin Yang's love for Tiankuo also has conditions, that is, he hopes that he is a normal person, his sister Xiaopeng is deaf and mute, and Qin Yang has to accompany her to take care of her food and clothing, so that she can chase her swimming dream.
Because Qin Yang is not sure whether Xiaopeng can live independently after he is in love, he has to refuse Tiankuo, even if she fills the coin with several water birds, he must be restrained.
But when my sister was drunk, she cried that she was a burden and dragged her sister down.
And in the Waterbird Exhibition Hall, taking the waterbird as an example, after telling Yang Yang that he could live independently, Qin Yang took the first step for himself.
In the swimming pool, Qin Yang met Tiankuo, and Tiankuo practiced what he wanted to say to Qin Kuo behind his back, and Qin Yang found that Tiankuo was not deaf and dumb, and was moved by Tiankuo's non-discrimination and sincere love.
Qin Yang followed Tiankuo to the bento shop to meet Tiankuo's parents, and their performance was also enough to be moving.
Tiankuo's parents did not ask their son to break up with her because Qin Yang was deaf and dumb, but worked hard to learn sign language and did their best to make Qin Qin feel their like.
When Qin Yang said the sentence "I do", Tiankuo and Tiankuo's parents did not feel deceived, but just wondered how they didn't say how to fall in love before.
Tiankuo and Qin Yang looked at each other and smiled and said, "We don't use talk, we use comparison", this sentence came out better than all sweet words and beautiful sounds.
It can be seen that Qin Yang's requirements for Tiankuo are not any conditions.
In essence, I am still worried that my sister will not be able to live alone, afraid that I will not be able to take care of two deaf and mute people at the same time.
Tiankuo's parents did not become a stumbling block to the love between Tiankuo and Qingyang, but became the catalyst of their sweet love, allowing their feelings to be lived.
In reality, many young people's love is mostly because the other party's parents are too demanding, so that a lover cannot eventually become a dependent.
Parents marrying their daughters is similar to selling their daughters, both this and that, and even the wedding is about to start and have a temporary price increase, similar cases are not only common in the news, but also heard about by everyone to a greater or lesser extent.
Originally, the current life pressure is great, the unsatisfactory employment environment has further compressed the living space of young people, and love should have been their safe haven, but now it has become the sword of Darkmoris hanging overhead.
On the other hand, Tiankuo's parents as long as their son is healthy and happy for a lifetime.
The appearance of the requirements for the daughter-in-law is very optimistic, very lively, very cute, very kind, very good to her sister, and filial to her parents.
And what Qin Yang did really make Tiankuo's praise not exaggerated.
His father was a missionary and went to Africa to work, and he supported the family alone, busy himself with his sister, took his sister's dream as his life goal, and worked several jobs alone to feed, almost without thinking about himself.
The love with Tiankuo is also quite rational and will not be easily moved by something, because she always puts her family first, will never leave until her sister fulfills her dream, and never complains that her sister has made it difficult for her.
She also gets along with Tiankuo equally, Tiankuo loves her and is willing to spend money for her, but Qin Yang does not take it for granted that boys spend money for girls.
The bento box that Tiankuo asked her to eat, she would write a note in her notebook, and pay it off after the salary was paid, even if Tiankuo customized the love bento for him, Qin Yang would also keep the account at the market price.
After doing a day of street performance and earning some money, I immediately invited Tiankuo to dinner.
Even a roadside stall will feel very happy, and even if you count coins slowly at the checkout, you will not feel embarrassed, because it is your own luck and clean money.
This paragraph is very similar to "Autumn Fairy Tale", the bow ruler and the tea pot set up a stall together to make money, and then the two people go shopping, eat, do not have a lot of money, and cannot afford to go to high-end restaurants, but that simple happiness is real and precious.
Tiankuo's feelings for Qin Yang are also sincere.
He does not accuse Qin Yang of not having a formal job, nor does he discriminate against Qin Yang as deaf and dumb (at first he mistakenly thought that Qin Yang was deaf and dumb), let alone think that his sister Xiaopeng was a drag oil bottle.
After the two are together, Tiankuo will also help Xiaopeng regain self-confidence, so that Qin Yang no longer feels guilty, and at a fun-loving and trouble-loving age, he is willing to help the family deliver bento boxes to reduce the burden on his parents.
He, like Qin Yang, is a young man who is rare to see now.
The reason why their love is enviable is because like a fairy tale, it sounds, it doesn't look real enough, it doesn't look like the boys and girls who should exist in reality.
Movies are sometimes used to create dreams, and "Hearsay" records for us the love that once existed but is now almost extinct, this kind of unconditional love that no one yearns for.
