"To Youth" This film is based on Xin Wuyi's novel of the same name ,"To the Youth We Will Eventually Pass Away", which was released in 2013 and exceeded 400 million at the box office, which is Zhao Wei's debut from an actor to a director, and she also won a good score of 99 high scores from the directing department of the Beijing Film Academy with this film.
"To Youth" tells the heroine Zheng Wei and the four girls in the same dormitory different youth love stories in college, although some people did not end up together, but this is exactly the most real charm of youth.
Today, I will lead you to interpret the youth stories of four different girls and find some thoughts that can be brought to us.
< h1 class = "pgc-h-center-line" >01, youth, must have love, otherwise it will be in vain</h1>
Youth is our best age, and love is something we have been looking forward to all our lives, and no one does not want to love well in youth, but not all people have this luck.
(1) Zheng Wei: Two vigorous loves, and finally lost to "I am not so important"
In the film, Zheng Wei is a well-deserved heroine, her love is vigorous, in her world, I like you just like you, since you like, you have to boldly say it.
She has a green plum bamboo horse named Lin Jing, and it just so happens that Lin Jing also likes her. When she was full of joy and Lin Jing was admitted to the same university, she learned that he had gone to the United States.
Abandoned, Zheng Wei hid in the dormitory and cried wildly.
She fell out of love.
But what he didn't know was that Lin Jing didn't go to the United States, but an excuse to avoid her story, after all, after discovering the private affair between Zheng Wei's mother and his father, he couldn't face Zheng Wei calmly.
Later, Zheng Wei went to the open dormitory to borrow a dish, and accidentally touched Chen Xiaozheng's architectural model, Chen Xiaozheng pushed her, and Zheng Wei remembered the hatred in her heart.
"You have to apologize to me!"
Chen Xiaozheng said: "Although this thing is nothing remarkable, in my opinion, it is worth a lot more than you." ”
This sentence poked at Zheng Wei's wound, and she thought, is the reason why Lin Jing went abroad because there is something more important than her?
Zheng Wei is a girl who dares to love and dare to hate, a failed relationship has passed, and she has begun to like Chen Xiaozheng.
She sang "Red Sun" aloud at the school's celebration, indirectly confessing to Chen Xiaozheng; she blocked Chen Xiaozheng on campus, lied to him about her birthday, and found a chance to date him...
In the end, Chen Xiaozheng agreed to associate with Zheng Wei, just how sweet it was to be together and how sad it was when he left.
What Chen Xiaozheng did not tell Zheng Wei was that he was going abroad.
Zheng Wei said: "Am I the last to know the truth?" ”
Chen Xiaozheng nodded.
At this time, Zheng Wei shouted loudly: "Why don't you believe that I will suffer with you?" ”
I remembered that Zheng Wei insisted on asking Chen Xiaozheng to apologize, and he said, "I don't think I'm at fault, so I won't apologize to you." ”
Chen Xiaozheng said: "My life is a building that can only be built once, and I have to make it extremely precise, not a centimeter difference pool - so I am too nervous and afraid of making a mistake." ”
Chen Xiaozheng was originally going to go abroad, his life did not allow himself to have a 1 cm error, but Zheng Wei was the 1 cm error, when the time came, he would re-correct it.
Chen Xiaozheng, who made the same choice as Lin Jing, gave up Zheng Wei because he believed that the future was the most important.
Falling in love with someone who will never put you first, Zheng Wei gets a love that has been abandoned twice.
For Zheng Wei, he doesn't need how perfect love is, she just needs to have someone who will never give up on her!
(2) Ruan Guan: The low-grade version of love can never be repaired
Unlike Zheng Wei's vigorous love, Ruan Wan's love is humble and stoic.
Ruan Wan has a little boyfriend Zhao Shiyong who was together in high school, he is kind, there is only Ruan Guan in his heart, but he is also kind to others.
Once, he and his classmates were at a party, and a female classmate was drunk, and Zhao Shiyong helped her, and they stayed together that night.
Zhao Shiyong, who has a cowardly personality, hurriedly stepped on the train to find Ruan Guan, saying: "She is pregnant."
He had no opinion and didn't know what to do.
In the end, it was Ruan Wan who took the girl to the hospital and chose to forgive Zhao Shiyong.
How much a person loves a man will accompany another woman to get a fetus.
How cowardly a man is, he will give his beloved woman the opportunity to insert the knife again and again.
Years later, Ruan Guan said to Zhao Shiyong: "I am pregnant. ”
Zhao Shiyong's expression was not happy, but panic, in his eyes, as long as his parents did not agree, he could not be with Ruan Guan, even if the two already had children.
Ruan Wan smiled bitterly and said, "I was joking." ”
This is the second time That Ruan Wan has come to the operating room of the hospital, a few years ago, she accompanied another girl to have a fetus, and today, she is going to beat up Zhao Shiyong's child.
Fate seemed to have played a joke with her, and when she chose to forgive Zhao Shiyong for her first mistake, all the decisions she made were like an unsolvable knot.
The original female classmate said to her: "It was Zhao Shiyong's kindness that hurt both of us." ”
The kindness of a man hurt two girls at the same time, and at the end of the story, ruan wan, in order to make a conclusion with Zhao Shiyong's relationship, was hit by a car on the road and died on the spot.
She once said that what I want most is youth immortality, and if it is fulfilled, life ends in youth and immortality forever.
Someone said, "Humble love, after all, cannot be exchanged for true love." The humble person who loves is like an emotional beggar, and such feelings are not equal from the beginning. Since the posture was put so low from the beginning, no one will cherish it after all. ”
(3) Lin Yajuan: I am not looking for a rich person, but I must marry a rich person
Lin Yajuan is a college student who has been admitted from a small county to a big city, and she clearly knows what she wants.
One of the words she often hangs in her mouth is - "Find a boyfriend, be realistic." ”
When discussing in the girls' dormitory, when he said Lin Xiaozheng, everything was good, that is, the family was too poor.
To this end, when he was in the English corner of the school, he said to Chen Xiaozheng: "Chen Xiaozheng, a poor person like us, cannot play with fire emotionally. ”
Lin Yajuan and Lin Xiaozheng are similar in that in the dormitory, they all love cleanliness extremely, the bed is not allowed to sit on, under the cleanliness of appearance,
The heart is barren, so it needs to be filled with money and fame.
If the movie ends here, you'll just think she's a vain woman.
However, when her fellow countrymen who were in the college entrance examination cram school but did not enter the university came to her dormitory to find her, she pulled him and cried:
"People have to go to a high place, and when you go to a big city to work, don't you also have to go to a high place?" Who wants to live forever in that little county until old age and death. You're good to be a negative person. ”
Lin Yajuan has this man in her heart, otherwise she would not have said such cruel but sincere words to him, she is going to go to a high place, so she whose family is also poor must marry a rich man.
Later, she finally married a rich man, even though the man was already 50 years old, even if she was going to be a stepmother for two naughty children.
Her love, happiness or unhappiness is not the most important, marrying a rich man, is the most important.
Tu Lei said: "Love and marriage mixed with money are like your stinky rice." On the surface, there is no difference, but it is actually difficult to swallow. ”
(4) Zhu Xiaobei: Youth is a crush that ends without illness, I guess the beginning, but I did not expect the ending
Zhu Xiaobei in the film has a boy's hairstyle, likes to play basketball, does things with a big grin, and talks very casually.
In a casual tone, she told the three girls in the dormitory that I had just seen a handsome guy on the playground and scratched her head when she finished.
No one took that to heart.
Once, Lin Yajuan said that Xu Kaiyang did not have a girlfriend, and Xiao Bei was the first to interject:
"It seems that you have secretly figured out all the clues."
Why does Xiao Bei, who doesn't care about anything, care so much about Xu Kaiyang?
Because the crush she said earlier is likely to be Xu Kaiyang.
When the canteen was cooking, Xu Kaiyang and Xiao Bei joked.
Xiao Bei said, "Your house is slightly in front of you!" ”
She knew that Xu Kaiyang liked Wei Wei, and she could only hide her crush in her heart.
She can't be like Zheng Wei, like to say, can't do like Lin Yajuan, like that person's money is a little more, she only likes Xu Kaiyang this person, but because of money, she can't like him.
Lin Yajuan found that the bun shop next to the school was opened by Xiaobei's sister, and she said: "I am not afraid that my classmates will know that my sister has worked hard to earn money for me to go to school, and there is nothing to be vain about." ”
But among so many classmates, what she was most afraid of was that Xu Kaiyang knew.
Originally, I thought that such a girl with a big grin on the surface, but in fact a sensitive heart, has been secretly in love, but I did not expect that Xiaobei was framed for stealing things and forcibly searching her body in the supermarket, which was the biggest insult to a girl, and it was also the beginning of her beginning to lose hope in life.
Later, in anger, Xiao bei smashed the supermarket, and she was forced to quit school.
Many years later, Xu Kaiyang met Xiao Bei in an auditorium of English speeches, when Xu Kaiyang had a wife and children around him, and Xu Kaiyang's family was dressed exquisitely.
He told his wife that the man was quite like Zhu Xiaobei, a former college alumnus.
Xiao Bei does not admit that perhaps she and Xu Kaiyang are separated by not only the parting of the family background, but also the crush that she does not want to mention.
Someone said: "Crush is a lost love that is trapped and can't find an exit." The confession of seeing the light of death is not said. After all, not all pain can be shouted; not all love is suitable for confession. ”
<h1 class = "pgc-h-center-line" >02, the movie "To Youth" has aroused people's thinking</h1>
What is youth, youth is in our best years, some very important people appear in your life and become the memories of your life.
(1) Zheng Wei's youth requires courage, how vigorous it is when she loves, and how much she tears her heart and lungs at the end
The radio host played by Han Hong said to Zheng Wei: "Love needs to be brave. ”
However, the brave Zheng Wei finally got the result of Chen Xiaozheng giving up her going to the United States, and her fate was twisting and turning, and she and Chen Xiaozheng still had no luck.
Zheng Wei, who was abandoned by her boyfriend twice, and Zheng Wei, who has no love, has become a team and is still brave.
Fortunately, in the end, Zheng Wei and Lin Jing were together, the man she had liked since she was a child, going around and around, and everything was back to the original point.
Faye Wong sang in "To Youth":
"A short revelry, thought a lifetime stretched.
The long farewell is a feast of youth. ”
For Zheng Wei, these two lyrics are exactly the best portrayal of her youthful love, vigorous when in love, tearing up when breaking up.
(2) Is youth at the cost of death too cruel to Ruan Wan?
If a love needs one of them to be patient, restrained, and humble to give, and in the end, the other person will have no fear, then the relationship will end sooner or later.
Ruan Guan is used to paying for others, even if the boyfriend "inadvertently" enlarges the belly of others, she can rationally accompany the female classmate to get a fetus, and also choose to forgive the boyfriend. She never thought that when there was a crack in love, even if she found all the pieces, she would not be able to spell out the complete plate.
In Ruan Wan's youth, she only loved Zhao Shiyong a man, and for him, she chose to accept his physical derailment, chose to beat up their children for him, and chose to see him for the last time before marrying another person, but she did not expect to be the last side that she would never see.
Is she at fault?
I do not know.
However, if youth is at the cost of death, it is not necessarily too heavy.
However, we are neither Zheng Wei nor Ruan Guan, in our ordinary youth, only monotonous class and class every day, if you are lucky enough to like someone, more is plain, not so memorable, not so lively.
< h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" >03, "To Youth" and "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years."</h1>
"To Youth" and "Those Years, the Girl We Chased Together" are both movies about youth, about love, and in my opinion, the two movies have a lot of similarities.
(1) Zheng Wei and Shen Jiayi have both experienced an unforgettable love
In both films, the heroine has experienced an unforgettable love, but unfortunately, some people meet to say goodbye.
"In those years, the girl we chased together", the heroine Shen Jiayi and high school classmate Ke Jingteng obviously liked each other, but they were not together. In their youth, there are more regrets. If the boy had been more mature and the girl had understood more, perhaps there would have been no shen Jiayi getting married, and the groom was not Ke Jingteng's regret.
At the end of the film, Ke Jingteng attends Shen Jiayi's wedding, but the groom is not him. When people teased me about kissing the bride, the groom said, "Kiss me as much as you want to kiss the bride."
As soon as the words fell, Ke Jingteng took a stride to kiss the groom, with such force that it seemed to kiss people to the bone marrow. The bride watched this scene from the side, from the initial surprise to the infinite emotion in the back, at this time she really realized that there was once a boy who loved me so much, but it was too late.
"I don't regret falling in love with you, I just regret not being able to be together in the end."
In "To Youth", Zheng Wei learned that her first love went to the United States, cried in the dormitory, and after calming the wounds in her heart, she began to fall in love with Chen Xiaozheng, who came from a poor family, but did not expect to be abandoned again.
After experiencing the abandonment of her two boyfriends, a few years have passed, and in the face of Chen Xiaozheng, who has returned from abroad and is ready to pursue her again, she said that we cannot go back to the past.
(2) In the love of youth, like is actually placed in the second place
Shen Jiayi and Ke Jingteng like each other, when Ke Jingteng confessed, Shen Jiayi was ready to agree, Ke Jingteng said, you still don't answer.
Ke Jingteng likes Shen Jiayi, but can't accept the answer of rejection, which may be a stupid manifestation of every adolescent boy putting so-called self-esteem first.
The young writer Lu Sihao once said:
"I am a person who may not be critical of you, and who may not speak ill of you when he is dying. I'd rather rush around the world looking for you when you disappear, going to any place where you might appear, and pretending to pass by when I see you on a street corner. I'd rather think I don't care about you, and I'm going to die and suffer for fear of loving you too much. So in the days to come, I realized that this ridiculous sense of self-preservation and self-esteem would follow me. ”
And Zheng Wei's two relationships, the first time was a relationship with Qingmei Zhu Ma Linjing, was pushed out by Lin Jing, because his hatred for his father was more important than his love for Zheng Wei; and his college love affair with Chen Xiaozheng eventually lost to Chen Xiaozheng's future.
< h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" > concluding remarks</h1>
As director Zhao Wei said: "My youth is not as legendary and distinct as the characters in the story, it is all question marks, full of confusion and insecurity." ”
We can't be like the ups and downs of the youth of the four girls in the movie, our youth is ordinary and real, and we haven't carefully experienced it, and the youth has passed in the blink of an eye.
However, the time of youth has passed, which does not mean that we cannot be young. White Rock said: "When I was 30 years old, I didn't think I was quite handsome, and I felt that I had a lot of problems, but today when I look back after 20 years, it turns out that I was also young, so it is best to treat each of you well today, and then look at your today two years later." ”
When we are 30 years old, we feel that 20 years old is youth, and when we are 40 years old, we find that 30 years old is youth, so when we are old, we find that every day of living is youth, and when we die, in the eyes of others, all our lives are their youth, I think, this is the real youth immortality.
