I. "Beijing, You Are Early"
Friends say you finished writing all the old movies you watched?
After thinking about it, there should be a lot more.
If nothing else, there is a very touching movie that has not been willing to remember.
"Beijing, You Are Early"
It's not the life I'm familiar with, it's not the place I'm familiar with, it's not the actor I'm familiar with, but there's a feeling I can't say is familiar.
It's the feeling of confusion that you don't know where to put yourself.
At that time, after watching this film, I sighed for a long time and wanted to write something, but I never wrote it.
Until now, I have never re-watched the film and have never written anything about it.
However, this has always been a film that I have a very favorite in my heart.
Over time, I don't even remember the names of the characters in it.
I only remember a female bus conductor, a male bus conductor, a male bus driver and a grandfather who pretended to be a Singaporean international student.
2. Synopsis of the story
The story is actually quite simple.
The story basically takes place on a bus in Beijing.
The female conductor and the male conductor originally had a good relationship. The two of them make an appointment to go to work together every day. Male conductors are very fond of female conductors. The female conductor also deservedly accepted the male conductor's kindness to her.
Later, a male driver came up on their bus. A pretty nice young man.
The female conductor was impressed by him.
One day when the male conductor went to wait for the female conductor, he found that she had left first.
The male conductor arrived at the company and found that the female conductor and the driver were talking and laughing.
Later, the female conductor got along with the driver.
The male conductor was so frustrated that he was absent from work and left the company.
After some time, the male conductor returned, and the three men pretended that nothing had happened.
The female conductor is very dissatisfied with this rigid life and the meagre income, and hopes that the male driver can go out and run around.
The male driver is a particularly self-contained person who refuses to do anything risky.
The female conductor was very dissatisfied with him.
At this time, the female conductor met a man who claimed to be a Singaporean student on the bus.
The two got better very quickly.
The male driver is also very disappointed.
The conductor was pregnant, but the Singaporean student was gone.
The male driver and the male conductor found the so-called Singaporean international student, who turned out to be no foreigner at all, but a small local grandfather.
The two men beat him up and held him accountable to the conductoress.
The female conductor resigned from the company.
A year later, the female conductor pulled a large bag of things onto the bus.
She has become a self-employed woman, along with her husband.
Her husband was the former fake international student.
Third, Ma Xiaoqing is really eye-catching.
In this group of actors, at that time, I only knew Ma Xiaoqing.
In the 90s, Ma Xiaoqing was still very popular.
Her shadow can be seen in many good films.
The characters she has created are still in place.
The female conductor she plays in this film is a very restless girl.
She was always eager to live a better life.
So in the PK between the male conductor and the driver, she chose to give up the conductor and choose a driver with a higher technical content.
In the PK of drivers and international students, she chose more promising and more decent international students.
She did not want to be bound by the system and wanted to live a free life.
She didn't want her future to be seen at a glance, she wanted to change her life.
She represents a group of restless hearts of that era.
This film is actually the urban version of "Wild Mountain".
At that time, I had not yet entered life, but inexplicably, I was very understanding of her attitude towards life that did not want to live a life at a glance.
My sister who watched the movie with me thought she was just a work, a vanity, but I felt that I admired the kind of tossing in her bones.
Ma Xiaoqing fully showed her acting skills in this film, that dissatisfaction with the status quo, that feeling of being curious about the unknown world, and was really well played by her.
Fourth, unexpected gains
After saying Ma Xiaoqing, I suddenly thought that the other three male actors were also quite outstanding, and I didn't know how they were now.
So I went to check the information and suddenly found two familiar names.
The male driver was actually played by director Wang Quan'an.
Oh my goodness.
I have seen the photo of director Wang Quan'an many times, and I have never thought of him and the male driver together.
Is it really a person?
Looking at Wang Quan'an's information, it really shows that he has acted in this film.
Sigh. Years really make people plastic surgery.
I looked at the cast again and found a name I hadn't expected.
Jia Hongsheng?
Excuse me？
What kind of eyes and memories do I have?
There is Jia Hongsheng in a film that I like so much, I actually don't know.
Find a clip and take a look.
Yes, the grandfather who fascinated me at the beginning was really him.
The song I like to this day, "False Monk", was sung by him.
No wonder I listened to Cui Jian later and couldn't always hear the original feeling.
Preconceived notions.
Take a few pictures to commemorate it.
No wonder I can't remember exactly.
The picture that attracted me the most was in such an environment.
The lights are red and green.
Therefore, the memory is still quite welfare.
