Sentence/Microcosm
Today I would like to recommend to you a Taiwanese movie "Love of Running Hands", douban score 8.2, the film was nominated for the best feature film at the 37th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards.
When I first heard the name of the movie, I felt strange, and later learned that in Taiwanese terms, the operator means taxi driver, and this movie is the love story of taxi drivers.
The story tells the story of Su Daquan (Qu Zhongheng), a taxi driver who announces to his parents that he will not marry, after falling in love with the female traffic policewoman Zhuang Jingwen (Miyazawa Riki) at first sight, and finally pursues and eventually wins the hearts of the beauty.
An ordinary taxi driver, who runs about 70,000 kilometers a year, has dealt with tens of thousands of people, and what kind of people have seen it.
At the beginning of the film, the male protagonist Su Daquan said: "My father once said that people sometimes reveal their deepest secrets to people who have only one side. ”
For example, there are housewives who suspect that their husbands and bossess have adulterous affairs, children who bump into their fathers who are adulterous, self-righteous singers, women who seduce drivers... Of course, there are also thieves who raise knives and guns to rob cars and money.
The family is a car dealership where many taxi drivers gather, and Su Daquan, who grew up in such an environment since childhood, has been interested in driving since he was a child, and when his friends of the same age are still riding motorcycles without a license, he is already driving a car without a license. For him, it doesn't matter if the school grades are not good, but if the driving car is not good, or the driver's license cannot be passed at one time, then no one can afford it in this life.
Su Daquan told his parents not to get married, and he also said two reasons.
"Because I don't think anyone in the world can like me, and since no one likes me, no one will marry me!"
"Because I don't think I can meet someone I like, even if I meet someone I don't like, she will become someone I don't like, and I can't marry someone I don't like." 」
The old man was very anxious after listening to it, and thought of trying to solve it. The father said what to do if his son did not get married, and rented a video for his son to watch. The mother wants Daquan to leave sperm in order to cultivate ivory grandchildren in the future.
Originally, he only loved cars and did not want beauty, but suddenly met Zhuang Jingwen, a girl who fell in love at first sight, she was a traffic policeman.
How much did Daquan like her, he said: "I found myself getting a 'disease that I would die if I didn't see her', and I longed to see her every day, wondering where she was? Want to know what she's doing? Or even wonder what she's thinking? Is she in a good mood? "This is love.
Daquan's mother said: "Do you know what the first step is to make a girlfriend, the most important thing about making a girlfriend is the impression, if you want a girl to like you, you must let her impress you, once she has an impression on you in her heart, the next time she sees you, she will feel very familiar, after feeling very familiar, it will be when you are a friend, as long as you make friends, it is easy to talk about what you want to talk about next." ”
And Daquan seems to have misunderstood his mother's instructions to impress the girl.
Putting the formalin-soaked head in mom's studio in the back seat was eye-catching, and she would definitely remember him and impress him.
Deliberately violating the rules in front of Shizumi, the tickets were piled up.
"What is pain, what is sadness, even if the driver's license is revoked, as long as I can see her every day, I can be happy, and the meaning of my life is to be with her." 」
For Daquan to come every day, Jingwen angrily used the registration book to hit Daquan, while asking him to take a stand: Do you often think of me, do you want to talk to me, do you like me, you say ah.
So a love affair began dramatically.
In addition to depicting this love affair in the film, each character in the film has its own characteristics, each dialogue is intriguing, and each scene is full of black humor.
Daquan's mother had a nice name, You Xizi, very beautiful, and was a forensic doctor. Because of the daily dealings with corpses, many people avoided her when they were young, and they were a little psychologically repulsive to her.
When he saw her dissecting the corpse, he said: It is normal to live and die. They are all so unfortunate, and we are still afraid of them, which is not right. Rest assured I'm not afraid at all. But they will unconsciously shiver and be afraid.
Only Daquan's father accepted her and lived together, getting married and having children. In you Xizi's words: Daquan and his father were the first and only men who could eat after seeing her work.
Daquan's sister loves to mix chemical reagents, and chemical explosions often occur at home, so it is not surprising that the family has seen more.
There are also various driver masters in the car shop.
A driver, driving skills are extremely poor, as long as the car will always hit something. A passenger carefully driving at the speed of a turtle was very nervous. The passenger said cautiously: "Can you drive faster, there are no cars on the road now." "Still turtle speed," the passenger said again. Finally, the turtle-speed car hit a pier at a dizzyingly slow speed.
One of the drivers was the busiest, eating a box lunch while driving, clutching the steering wheel and the box lunch in one hand, grabbing chopsticks in the other, and taking time to answer a phone call in the middle. Two passengers in the back seat have been trembling with fear, and he laughed and said to people, "You don't like to talk." ”
A driver with the best skills, familiar with various roads, always can be very punctual and accurate to the destination, but the passengers can't stand it, and the legs are soft when they get off the car.
The film is full of whimsy and creativity, giving people a kind of light comedy, very lifelike, and outlining the city of Taiwan in a state similar to a comic.
You think it's a comedy, the story of a taxi driver chasing his sister, but in fact, this film also expresses the idea of death.
The fork in front of the daqo father's car is an accident-prone area, almost every day there are car accidents, tragic accidents will be numb for a long time, see people being hit by the fragments and pick up the stumps will not feel rejected, it is very casual.
Seeing the head soaked in formalin and discussing whether the beard is still growing and whether the beard is growing again is as common for the family as discussing the plants raised at home.
When Daquan brought his girlfriend to the house for the first time to eat, the topic of breaking the deadlock at the dinner table was the tragic situation of various car accident scenes.
In the face of life and death, in their eyes are accustomed to things, life or death is a very accidental thing, do not panic, fear, when it comes to face it calmly.
Although the title has the word "love", it is a humorous discussion of the mentality of facing death and the impermanence of life. On the surface, it seems to be an urban light comedy, but in fact it tells a profound philosophy of life.
No matter how big things happen, life has to go on.
