Director Ning Hao's "Heart Flower Road Release" records the adventures of two good friends on the road of self-driving, which is another road comedy movie, the film revolves around the theme of "highway love", with "divorce - frustration - start the hunting journey - failure - relief - find true love again" as the main narrative line, with unexpected coincidences to increase laughter.
In the movie, the male protagonist represents two extremes, one is a good man who pays and sacrifices for true love, and the other is a scumbag who does not take true love seriously and is merciful everywhere. The two of them started the road to hunting Yan in the same car, and in the end it was the scumbag Hao Yi who finally successfully entered the marriage hall, while the other male protagonist Geng Hao, who was "little three", did not hunt on the road, but met a music teacher at Hao Yi's wedding, the two talked very happily, and may develop into a new other half.
There are many consumption symbols in the film, which is also Ning Hao's style, trying to adapt to the market, but maintaining its own stylized symbol. His style is very chinese, focusing on the creation of small characters in reality, whether it is proud or frustrated, all sentient beings, and even social chaos, which makes us feel related. And Ning Hao's movie "Heart Flower Road Release" is a reflection of the true love of small people in today's society, as long as they are serious, they will lose, and they will lose all over the place. In this society, true love has become a luxury, and on that road full of lust, how many people will give their hearts, and how many people just want to party for a night, and those who pay for love have gradually become victims of this materialistic society.
< h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > music: the collision with poetry and the distance</h1>
The music in the film is very compatible with the scene, and there are two songs in it, one is "Go to Dali" and the other is "Gently Put Down". "To Dali" is the beginning of the poem and the distance, the heroine Kang Xiaoyu's life is a mess, because she heard this song, decided to embark on the road to Dali and start her own journey to find true love. "Gently Put Down" is the helplessness of Gou He in life, Kang Xiaoyu fell in love with him at first sight because of the song "Go to Dali" sung by Geng Hao, and entered the marriage hall. Geng Hao was just a niche singer at that time, no matter how much Kang Xiaoyu liked music, no matter how much he pursued the feeling that touched his heart, all kinds of chai rice oil salt sauce vinegar tea in life would eventually wear away the passion of true love. Kang Xiaoyu felt that she could no longer find the feeling of being in love, but Geng Hao was a person who was willing to succumb to chai rice oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea for true love, he did not love music anymore, but hoped to make Kang Xiaoyu live better, but Kang Xiaoyu did not want these.
No matter how elegant the art needs to be supported by financial resources, art can touch people's heartstrings, but it is extremely cruel, and the disparity between famous and unknown can easily make people give up persistence. The romantic true love that Kang Xiaoyu pursues is the lack of the support of life, so in the end she still cheated on Gao Fushuai, indicating that she must first satisfy the gouge of life before pursuing poetry and distant places.
Hao Yun's folk song "Go to Dali", the song "don't know who is waiting where, don't know what will happen later" is integrated with the blue sky of Dali and the blue Erhai Sea, and the protagonist does not need to have any lines to create a pleasant mood. And Kang Xiaoyu embarked on a journey to Dali because of this song, and she hopes to find her lost self and forget the past in order to better start over. When she heard this song, the water pipe in the bathroom was bursting and leaking, she was an elderly leftover woman alone to deal with this situation, accidentally fell, and when she was not easy to deal with, she accidentally heard the song, when it touched her heartstrings, the water pipe began to leak again, which triggered her impulse to leave even more, and immediately called to book a ticket. This scene also touched the heartstrings of many elderly single women, although they can handle everything by themselves, but the pressure of the outside world, the pressure of work, so that they are more and more confused on the road to find true love, once a beautiful yearning, did not expect to reach such an embarrassing situation.
The theme song of the film, "Gently Put Down", sets off the frustration of feelings, those two sentences: "There will be a number that has long been deleted but will not be forgotten, never call again, but never forget her." The music is slow and long, expressing the reluctance in Geng Hao's heart, and is a true portrayal of the love between Kang Xiaoyu and Geng Hao.
After Geng Hao returned to the Wutong Inn where he and his ex-wife met after his divorce, and saw a video of his ex-wife denigrating his ex-wife in the nearby "Night" bar, Geng Hao negotiated fruitlessly and fought with the hotel owners. The boss asked him if his ex-wife had anything to do with him? He honestly replied that it didn't matter, but then he thought about it and replied domineeringly:
My previous failed marriage, it was a shadow in my life, right? But that's part of my life. When you insulted my ex-wife just now, you were insulting my life, so it has something to do with me.
This sentence confirms that the lyrics want to put down and it is not so easy to put down, it will be hidden in the heart of a connotation.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > beauty: a carnival that satisfies voyeurism</h1>
This film tells the story of the road, but one symbol that is always inseparable from the road is the beauty. This beautiful woman is a symbol of consumer desire, a symbol of commodity packaging, which greatly satisfies people's desire to consume. Ning Hao deliberately uses this symbol as a commercial value, and also greatly distorts the values of feelings. Although the main purpose of this road is to grow, but growth should be enriched with various female color consumption?
The healing along the way depends on hunting Yan, but what can the person who heals the wounded in the end hunt? This also indirectly implies that the "one night stand" ultimately brings no loneliest, only more loneliness.
All the way in the film, "one-night stands", "car shock", "lust" and other elements are emphasized, which can well please the audience and satisfy the public's voyeurism, but this obviously materializes women, every female character in the film is just a commodity, and it is a disposable commodity, as Hao Yi said, "Never sleep with the same woman twice", and the "Avatar girl" who slept with him twice eventually became his wife.
This also indirectly emphasizes the helplessness in today's love, women often have sex because of love, and men love because of sex. When women do their best to pursue a true love, they still can't get rid of the vulgar invasion of the world. Why true love is so difficult to find, it is because under the materialistic society, people's thinking has also deteriorated.
When art is wrapped in commodities, and commodities reflect human nature with art, the two complement each other and become profitable. The playful characters in the film, as well as the disapproval of the moral flaws in the emotional view, are not the true portrayal of today's society. The true love pursued by the elderly leftover women, to find a needle in the ocean of moral decay, is a kind of sadness, or a reality that has to be faced. Nowadays, there are many kinds of love, there are ambiguous, there are same-sex, there are one-night stands, there are only love and do not get married, there are also desperate for marriage... What is true love? Perhaps the definition of this word has long been unfamiliar to people's minds, and has been replaced by only carnal revelry.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > money: the cornerstone of true feelings and unreachable longings</h1>
There is a clip in the film, Geng Hao took out a pile of money and threw it on the table, hoping to let the wine escort lady sincerely say "I love you" to herself, but how can she say the truth in the temptation of money, and the word "love" in real love is mostly unavoidable, more of a material desire.
Since ancient times, women have been more serious about feelings, and they can sacrifice everything for love, but this movie is the opposite. Men will treat love with money and the interests of all parties to measure, to say love, maybe really loved at that time, but men will also use love to hurt women. Therefore, the goodness of men to women in love is mostly the secretion of dopamine, and when this secreted hormone subsides, it is replaced by indifference. Therefore, the use of a man in the film to express the desire for love must not be unreasonable, but it is also enough to witness the consumption concept of women as objects. He thought that as long as he gave money, the wine escort lady would disregard all her dignity to please him, but he did not know that the wine escort lady could also clean him up.
There is also a hint that when you have been injured by innocent people to repay, the ultimate retaliation is still yourself.
In addition, there is a belief about Hao Yi's words, faith in his eyes is just a tool for fooling girls into one-night stands, but the "Avatar Girl" believes in his faith, and specifically follows him and sends his faith to his side. This funny black humor satirizes the hypocrisy of "faith", but then the plot is reversed, "Avatar Girl" has become Hao Yi's righteous wife, and it seems that there are some expectations for true love, and it is also implied that sometimes girls should take the initiative in love.
There is also a girl with the most simple concept of love in the play, Kang Xiaoyu, who was most disdainful of paper drunk fans, and finally cheated on Gao Fushuai. The contrast between before marriage and after marriage makes people sigh that love will eventually fail in chai rice oil salt sauce vinegar tea. All poetry and distance depend on money as a cornerstone, and when your road ahead is paved with cornerstones, you find that true love no longer exists, leaving only tacky materialistic satisfaction.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > values: the intersection of human nature and materialism</h1>
The values of this film are originally quite controversial, growing up on bubble girls along the way, and too disrespectful to women, but the use of this female consumption makes people think that human nature is to survive in the crisscrossing of human nature and materialism.
Kang Xiaoyu is difficult for people to associate her with the "cheating ex-wife", at first she embarked on the road of Dali to cultivate herself, all kinds of rejection of lust, let people have a kind of expectation for the true love of this world, but did not expect the ending to be a big surprise. Although the film does not say in detail what went wrong between her and Geng Hao, the way she rejects lust during the journey is to smash the money, it can be seen that she is a rich person, she can solve anything alone, she is not short of money. However, from the mess she made from repairing the water pipes in her home, listening to the tears of "Go to Dali", you can see that what she needs is a sense of security.
The owner of the "Night" bar repeatedly encouraged her to participate in the game of lust, but she refused, and she also lost money several times, the most serious one went to the police station. Kang Xiaoyu's helplessness also showed her disappointment in her emotional view of this society, until she met Geng Hao, she finally found the feeling she wanted, but Geng Hao was only a niche singer, even if she did not dislike it, the way of life between the two of them was still different. Geng Hao naturally gave up the glitz of society in order to engage in art, but he gave up his ideals for love. But Kang Xiaoyu originally saw his attachment to the ideal, if he insisted on the ideal, the economic pillar of the family would all fall on Kang Xiaoyu. Maybe you will say that Kang Xiaoyu hopes that Geng Hao will continue to engage in music, which is true, but Kang Xiaoyu hopes that her romantic life will continue and need material support, which is also true, otherwise why would she choose Gao Fushuai in the end instead of another literary and artistic young man?
This social environment is originally a blasphemy against love, Geng Hao has become a victim of this social environment, and more and more women like Kang Xiaoyu will gradually drown in this torrent.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > concluding remarks</h1>
Everyone longs for an innocent love, but whoever ends up lost in this materialistic society. We don't want to talk about a love that never breaks up, and why don't we want to find a reliable man to live a solid life. However, in today's gradually open society, the concept of feelings has long been unconstrained, and the higher the degree of emotional freedom, the easier it is for people to get lost in drunken fans. Some people have been stuck in the hope of that pure love, but in the end they found that chai rice oil salt sauce vinegar tea is the tone of marriage. Love makes people feel beautiful, but also makes people feel romantic, looking like each other is a beautiful fantasy, but in the end it is found that true love is just a road of no return.
