One night in 1921, the streets of the French Concession in Shanghai were filled with French flags, and the French were shouting long live France in the streets, and waves of processions crossed the streets into a large mansion, which was full of dazzling, drunken fans, and all kinds of French people drank, danced, and laughed inside. Mao Zedong, who had just arrived in Shanghai from Hunan, heard the noise outside and ran out to check on the situation, bumped into a wave of parades at the mouth of the hutong, and went to the mansion surrounded by crowds, but was stopped by a French guard. Mao Zedong looked at the bustling scene inside the railing gate, and his eyes were full of loss and sorrow. At this time, fireworks suddenly appeared in the sky, and Mao Zedong looked at the dazzling fireworks in the sky and began to run in the streets. This scene in the movie "1921" left a deep impression on my mind.
This scene in the movie does not use any language, but it makes people feel infinite sadness. Mao Zedong saw the French celebrating their country's festival on The territory of China, remembered the fragmentation of China at that time, remembered the suffering people, remembered his promise to his father Mao Yichang, and remembered the expectations of his wife Yang Kaihui. Mao Zedong ran hard, as if trying to get out of the noisy night, and seemed to express his desperate desire to push China forward.
However, in 1921, in this particular year, China's future was indeed just around the corner. On the 9th day after the French National Day, the Communist Party of China was officially established, and China has since had the guidance of reliable organizational forces.
The film "1921" revolves around the groundbreaking event of the founding of the Communist Party of China. One side responded, the eight parties came to report, and I felt a deep sense of national pride in watching the movie. The idea of party building was passed on to the hands of Communist Party members in various places through letters, and people from all walks of life in Beijing, Hunan, Guangzhou, Hubei, revolutionaries studying in France, revolutionaries staying in Japan, and so on gathered in Shanghai.
From the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China to the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party, when history was once again put on the big silver screen, it awakened the national identity and patriotic feelings in the heart. There are many touching places in the film, especially the fragments of the sacrifices of many communists after the founding of the party, which makes me repeat a sentence countless times in my heart: "Our current happy life is bought with the blood of revolutionary martyrs." "Yes, in that era, wars were raging, and teenagers in their early twenties should have studied and entered the university in peace, but they carried the banner of national salvation, and these post-90s generations a hundred years ago made great sacrifices for the founding of New China. Let me talk about this film mainly from three aspects, and I also recommend that everyone go to see this "1921".
First of all, the film is very cleverly designed in many details.
Mao Zedong and Chiang Kai-shek met on the train, Mao Zedong looked curiously at Chiang Kai-shek in a suit opposite, Chiang Kai-shek just looked at it indifferently, and got off the train in the middle, this design seems to be just a coincidence, but there is a deep meaning behind it. On the road to national salvation, the two are finally going to different forks in the road, which is not only a ride, but also reflects the historical choice behind it.
In contrast, the little girl opposite where Li Da and Wang met and lived was like a witness, from the house to the roof to the roof of the roof, the little girl's eyes of Li Da was constantly climbing up, and finally realized her revolutionary ideals and established a unified political party nationwide. Several clever designs make the meaning behind the film stand out in the aftertaste.
The second is the design of the storyline, because the film is a history that everyone is familiar with, so what wants to impress people's hearts must be to dig the story behind the historical characters, and the details can resonate the most. One of the stories that impressed me deeply was He Shuheng's late-night confession. In the film, the deputies gather in front of the window to talk about the road to national salvation, and the young people are curious about the reason why He Shuheng participated in the revolution, He Shuheng is the oldest of them, as a show talent, why did he join the revolution? When he told the story behind him, he felt extremely sad.
Because one day he asked his friend who had won the examination how he felt after meeting the empress dowager, and what did the empress look like? And his friend's answer stunned him. His friend said that he did not see the empress, He Shuheng wondered why he did not see it, did you not enter the temple test? The friend said, "I went in, but I didn't let me look up at the empress, so I could only kneel on the ground and bow my head." He Shuheng told Mao Zedong and Li Da, "At that time, I was thinking, if the readers of this country cannot look up and be human, then how sad it is." This sentence was engraved in his heart like a brand, and He Shuheng resolutely participated in the revolution.
Finally, the film also makes great efforts in the portrayal of characters. Liu Renjing, who is familiar with classic theories, is good at quoting scriptures, and serves as a Chinese and foreign translator, Chen Gongbo and Zhou Fohai, who wears a suit and loves his wife, covets enjoyment, Mao Zedong, who is simple and realistic, Li Da, who is decisive and capable, and so on, the calm and distinct portraits of the characters reflect the fate of everyone and the fate of the party.
Everyone has their own characteristics and stories, and everyone is laying the groundwork for later developments. Zhou Fohai, who did not pay attention to the CCP meeting, and Chen Gongbo, who was silent at the meeting, both foreshadowed their future direction, and their dress was in stark contrast to the others, glamorous and simple, perhaps two different paths.
Li Da quoted Lu Xun's famous saying, "Hope is nothing that does not matter, and it does not matter what is nothing." This is like the way on the earth; in fact, there is no road on the earth, and the more people who walk, the more it becomes the road. It is also true that it comes from "Hometown" published in 1921, and it is linked with the dream of primary school textbooks. Li Da quoted Lu Xun to Zhang Guotao, indicating that he had clearly realized that "our road in China must be taken by ourselves, and if we go wrong, then everyone in the future will be wrong." This clip also highlights the personalities of the two people, and there is a lot of room for interpretation in terms of what kind of life route they will embark on in the future, which has to be thought-provoking.
Old Shanghai in the 1920s gathered such a group of young people who dared to fight against foreigners and compete with the Beiyang government, who dared to use their flesh and blood to open up a new road for China, and it was they who created China's future.
At the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China on July 1 this year, a group of pictures exploded on Weibo, and the large screen showing Chairman Mao's images had a clever collision with the fireworks behind it, and when Chairman Mao looked up at the sky, the fireworks in the sky converged into the appearance of five stars. "Heartache with pride.
Yes, he may, he can really see, compared to the fireworks 100 years ago, the fireworks in 2021 are much more brilliant.
