The 11th episode of "The Long Season" is a real surprise, a full hour and 47 minutes, which is the length of a movie, the longest episode of the show so far, and it is very enjoyable to watch.
The viewing experience of this episode is like a roller coaster, a great tragedy, a great joy, just experienced a human tragedy, lost a child in middle age, blinked time and space changed to 18 years later, the flower shop bought flowers, the love rival met, and also acted as a staff officer, the god-level dialogue in the car, and the generous letting go.
Lost love, frustrated disappointment, 3 old men singing and dancing in KTV, when you have just been brought into the rhythm of comedy by the director, caught off guard and "sad".
The emotional ups and downs in one episode not only contain the seemingly insoluble suffering in life, fatalistic pathos and desolation, but also give birth to the sense of relief and pleasure of seeing through and letting go of the red dust world.
It is better to be a song about wine and sing, although life is cruel, since you are alive, you still have to live happily.
Gong Biao's "Biao", Wang Xiang's "Axis", and Ma Desheng's "Brave", they all desperately swung their fists at the "evil" in their eyes in that unusual autumn, some lost their jobs in big factories, and some lost promotion opportunities.
Eighteen years later, they are still living tenaciously on this land, honest and old, but still with that temperament of "biao" or "axis" or "brave".
Wang Xiang, who did not believe in fate, believed in life, and Gong Biao, who did not believe in fate, still did not believe in fate. Ma Desheng, who was not convinced by the old age, admitted: I am old.
They are all good people. The unreliable Gong Biao may not be a good husband, but his behavior before marriage and during divorce all confirm that he is a good person.
Although Liru and Director Shen made a fuss, Liru was pregnant and miscarried, Gong Biao didn't mind taking the pot, Liru wanted to divorce, although he couldn't bear it, he still chose to let go, clean up and leave the house, and let the pigeons that had been fed for a long time fly.
The release of the pigeon is a wonderful image, he gives freedom to those he loves, gives freedom to others and gives freedom to himself.
In this suspense drama, the reason why these two unreliable partners who are chasing the murderer can come together is because they have similar temperaments.
Wang Xiang can also let go equally generously to Qiaoyun. A conversation between Wang Xiang and Qiaoyun on the car is exquisite.
Qiaoyun said, Master Wang, you pulled us both to not delay you in sending flowers?
"Don't delay, that person is also the old man of Hua Gang, if I don't send it, she can understand what I mean."
"Do I know the person you sent the flowers?"
"It should be known that she is a pound room, a good person, this life is not easy, to be strong." Other lesbians always cry when they encounter something, hey, she is happy, quite admirable. ”
At this time, Qiaoyun couldn't stop her tears: "Then you didn't think about taking a step forward with her?" ”
Wang Xiang answered Qiaoyun seriously:
"What's going on? Recently, I encountered something, contacted a lot of our old people in Huagang Steel, I found that no matter how good or bad people live, what kind of life they live, they can look forward, I can't, I can't get old. I've heard that my friend, ah, is doing very well now, and I am very happy for her. I just want her to live a comfortable life for the rest of her life, don't worry about me as a little old man, and can't do it. ”
The love rival interjected: "Master Wang, you are nostalgic." ”
"To say that it sounds good is nostalgic, in fact, it is a shaft, dead, quite annoying." Wang Xiang said with a smile.
The love rival looked at Qiaoyun: "Why are you crying, Qiaoyun?" ”
Qiaoyun: "It's okay, it's okay, I also remember something from the past." ”
Wang Xiang said: "Believe in me, do not want to pass things, let it pass, look forward." ”
"Yes, look ahead."
The content of their dialogue is highly dependent on context, and Wang Xiang and Qiaoyun are in the context of equal background information, so Qiaoyun can understand the meaning of this sentence, and listening to it in the ears of love rivals is another meaning.
Therefore, Wang Xiang was able to complete this farewell confession with Qiaoyun in the presence of his love rival, full of affection, apologetic, and explaining through self-complaining.
Wang Xiang confiscated the car fare and said to his love rival that please do something to you, be kind to Qiaoyun, otherwise we old workers will not agree.
Before leaving, Wang Xiang gave the 11 roses, 2 lilies, and a forget-me-not bouquet to his lover, saying: Bless you.
Wang sound, loud sound. Being a person and doing things has always been very open.
Wang Xiang, Gong Biao and Ma Desheng sang and danced rumba in KTV, pushing the atmosphere of the whole episode to a high point, 3 old men laughing in the private room, dancing with demons, releasing them to their heart's content, letting the past be like smoke, and letting the years not be spared.
After this carnival, Le was extremely sad, Ma Desheng was unconscious, Gong Biao was on the way to buy breakfast, saw that he won the lottery jackpot at the same time, collided with the truck, drove the taxi into the air in ecstasy, and flew like a pigeon.
This ending is stunned and amazing.
Very dramatic, coincidences are coincidental to the point, drama, sense of fatalism, absurdity, great joy and tragedy, and it is difficult to say whether the last ending is sad or happy, if Gong Biao really went offline because of this, life came to an abrupt end in the ecstasy of winning the lottery, for him, maybe this way of dying is a very romantic way to die?
After the launch of episode 11, the Douban score of "The Long Season" climbed to a new high, rising from 9.2 points to 9.3 points.
Director Xin Shuang's episode is letting go of himself, and it has indeed filmed the hearts of many people, such as Ma Desheng fat beating Shen Dongliang, this punch is simply for the audience, such as Gong Biao, Wang Xiang waved their fists at Director Shen, releasing the hatred of the villain since watching the drama.
This episode also has the free breath and wind of letting go of the lover, Wang Xiang and Gong Biao made the same choice, hoping that the loved one can be happy, they seem to be the downcast in life, always unsatisfactory, but there is a temperament on the body, willing to let go, adult beauty.
This episode, watching it happily, hearty, filmed the pain of life, the bitterness of life, and at the same time with a certain degree of detachment generosity, this heaviness is dissolved, and finally you can sing loudly, dance wantonly, and even let life end in a kind of ecstasy, which can be called a stroke of God.
