"Passing Zhaoguan" is a domestic drama road movie released in 2019. Director Huo Meng wrote and directed himself, filmed in 38 days, the film from the protagonist to the supporting roles are non-professional actors, but let everyone not expect, the film has won a number of awards at the Pingyao International Film Festival.
The plot of the movie is not so vigorous, and it is naturally and smoothly told: In the process of Li Fuchang taking his grandson Ning Ning to visit his old friend, he saw the people and what happened. It plainly shows the sincerity and kindness of the older generation, and shows the philosophy of life to the audience. This simple, leisurely, calm film tells you the four truths of my life in a flat tone, and Tols said: "Without simplicity, kindness and truth, there is no great work"! This may be why we were impressed by this movie!
Truth One: It sometimes takes more courage to live than to die
On the way to visit his old friend, Fu Chang and Ning Ning went to the forest by the river to rest, and met the young man who was fishing alone, and they talked: the young man said that he and his friend had lost money in business, and the friend could not withstand the pressure to commit suicide, and he had no thoughts about what he was doing now, and he could only live for a long time.
Fu Chang listened to it and slowly told the story of fu he, the dumb brother next door: Uncle Li has two children, the eldest has a single family, and the second brother has not started a family to live with his father. In that era, there was no firewood, the father ordered the second brother to sweep the leaves and go home as firewood, the second brother forgot about it when he was greedy, and when the father asked, the second brother was afraid of being beaten and could only scatter a panic and said that the eldest brother took the leaves.
The father is a violent temper, did not understand the reason, rushed into the old people to give the boss a slap, the big brother is also strong, angry on the drinking poison to commit suicide, the father also hanged himself a month later, in an instant a good family fell a family broken, the second brother also wanted to die, but the children of the big brother's family were not cared about, the second took over the child and raised them to adulthood. However, the second brother has never said a word since then, nor has he married, but he has worked hard to earn money to raise a pair of children of the eldest brother.
Napoleon said: Suffering requires more courage than death. "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty" also said: Sometimes living in humiliation requires more courage than tragic death.
FuHe chose to die much easier, but he couldn't choose to die, he had more important responsibilities, he had to raise his brother's children as adults, but he didn't choose to forgive himself, so he punished himself as a mute. Fu and this ordinary peasant is admirable, he made mistakes, but did not choose to escape, he took on his own responsibility. It is conceivable that he did not live easily at all, the gossip of others, the nightmares that woke him up from his dreams again and again, how did he persist?
At the end of the film, Fuhe dies, and his nephew stands in front of the grave and Fu chang sadly says that he has long regarded Fuhe as his own father. Fu Chang's son Yunsheng said: One day he dreamed that Fu and uncle were talking, and in the evening his daughter-in-law gave birth to a second child, and the next day he received a call from Fu He uncle who died. All of this seems to be unrelated, but it seems to be very related.
Lu Xun once said: True warriors dare to face the bleak life. Fu and true warriors!
Truth two: People are kind, not for others, but for themselves!
Fu Chang and Ning Ning on the way to Sanmenxia met a big truck driver, his car broke down, he waited anxiously on the side of the road for half a day and no one was willing to help him, Fu Chang was willing to take him, the driver was very anxious, could not wait for Fu Chang's driving speed, under consultation, Fu Chang unloaded his luggage, and the driver drove three wheels to buy accessories. After returning, the driver had to give Fu Chang 50 yuan, Fu Chang did not accept, the driver gave Ning Ning, and later in the process of repairing the car, the driver learned that the grandfather and grandson were going to Sanmenxia, and proposed to take the two people for a ride.
On the way to Sanmenxia, the group met the people who stopped the car, and someone ran away, leaving only the widow's wife, with children and coffins, standing on the side of the road to raise some money from the passing vehicles. After Fu Chang saw it, he took Ning Ning out of the car, asked Ning Ning for the 50 yuan he had just received, gave it to the woman, Ning Ning just wanted to leave, and turned back to give his bubble gum to the child.
Fu Chang did not consider the truth of the mother and daughter, and he helped people out of his heart. Now society, strange and strange, sometimes helpful others but blackmailed news came out, staged a modern version of the farmer and snake, people always say that good people have good rewards, but now they are wronged everywhere, not worth it, should not be kind The topic is very loud, but our kindness needs to be understood by others? Kindness is for yourself and not for others, to help others, to warm yourself.
Rousseau said that good deeds have the advantage of making the soul noble, and that it is possible to do better deeds. Kindness is the gift of the years, choose what kind of person to be, for yourself, not because of others, give people roses, hand afterscent.
Truth Three: The friendship of gentlemen is as light as water
Fu Chang stayed in the Sanmenxia Labor Reform Farm for seven or eight years, where he made a few friends who had passed his life, when selling watermelons, he accidentally got a phone call from his old friend Han Yutang, and after making a phone call, he learned that a few friends were left alive with him and Han Yutang, and now Han Yutang is also seriously ill, and the time is not much, plus Ning Ning has been making a fuss about going out to play, Fu Chang plans to see his old friend, and then take Ning Ning out to relax, which has a trip to Sanmenxia.
The dating of Fu Chang's generation is not as complicated as it is now, and now dating looks at status, identity, wealth, looks, and now the so-called girlfriend, a small thing may begin to explode with each other, and vicious words are said to each other. Recently, there are often a group of friends going out to eat, but in the end no one pays, all the incidents of evading the order, really let people look at the ruin, this is the so-called friends.
Gentlemen's friendship is as light as water, and friends should understand each other, not forced, not jealous, not demanding, not clingy. The friendship between Fu Chang and Han Yutang's older generation is like this, even if they have been out of touch for many years, they can't stop their friendship, Fu Chang only has a moment to visit Han Yutang, and he only brought a jar of honey, but the two did not see a trace of embarrassment when they met, only the familiarity and calmness between friends for many years.
In the end, Han Yutang still died, and on his deathbed, Han Yutang instructed his family to tell Fu Chang that he was very satisfied to see Fu Chang before he died, Fu Chang listened to it and hung up the phone silently, and then walked to the old photo and drew a circle on Han Yu tang's head, at this time only Fu Chang was left with four people!
Truth four: life is full of cards, it is sad to close, and it is passed.
The biggest inspiration of "Passing the Zhaoguan" is the power of blandness, and blandness is the key to dealing with all difficulties. Life is never smooth, business failure of the young man, the driver of the big car, the old man who keeps bees, the dumb Fuhe and so on, there will be unexpected difficulties everywhere, including Fu Chang himself when he was young, he was also suffering.
Some things in life are not under their control, just like Fu Chang said to the young man: there are fish in the river, slow fishing will always catch fish, no fish in the river, how to catch fish, things are placed there, forced not to come. Everyone has their own Zhaoguan, plain face, there will always be a way. It is difficult to pass the pass, which is to tell us that there is no obstacle that cannot be passed.
Plain is true, it gently soothes your soul when you are hurt, full of positive energy for your life; plain is true, it quietly guides your direction when you wander, and blows away the confusion for your life. Listen to life, spring blossoms!
In today's society, the pressure is huge, the temptation is mixed, the thoughts collide, and people's emotions are very tight, and they don't know which sentence, which look, which action, can detonate the emotions. Yesterday in Nanjing, the case of driving a car and injuring people with a knife was initially reported by the police, and the incident was triggered by emotional disputes, and the injured man did things to the extreme, and the consequences waiting for him could only be severe punishment by the law. If he had watched "Passing the Zhaoguan" before he was impulsive, the result would have been different!
