"Vertigo: Daughter of Hokusai" Douban 8.6
<h1 class= "pgc-h-center-line" > painting is a matter of life</h1>
Ah Rong looked at the burning house opposite and exclaimed, "What a beautiful color!" ”
Know its madness.
Ah Rong laughed at the ugly appearance of her husband's paintings and divorced.
Know its purity.
The composition of the film is also beautiful, with the texture of ukiyo-e.
Ah Rong chased after the light and color: "If you gaze at it, you will find that everything in the world is composed of the intensity of color, and people's faces and bodies will show different colors under different lights, rather than always the same color." ”
This passage is viewed through the eyes of the painter.
Painters, poets, storytellers, they all have their own unique perspectives.
The film tells the story of the painter, and naturally looks at it with the eyes of the painter.
Unlike watching Hollywood-type narratives, the plot and characters of such films with their own unique cultural temperament are unpredictable, and it is also the pleasure of watching movies.
For movies, there has always been a wayward standard: a movie, as long as it tries to tell a story that has never been told before, serious, persistent, and determined, it is worth watching.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-center-line" > why people are obsessed with one thing</h1>
When Ah Rong was questioned about his painting skills, he stood on the bridge and asked himself, why do I have to obsess over painting so much, so hard.
Silly and cute.
A person's whole life, since he is sure of what he wants to do, this kind of question will be asked many times, but most of them are similar, with a little bit of delicacy, grievance, stupidity, very cute. It is similar to a young girl who finds the love of her life and firmly believes from the bottom of her heart that she cannot leave the beloved, and that the beloved always opens her arms to herself, so that when she encounters some slight setbacks, she will pass by.
It is not easy to do this.
The premise is that you love it and want to do it for the rest of your life, just because you love it. It has nothing to do with external things such as fame, money, meeting the expectations of others, and so on.
Looking at her daughter's frustration, her father, Katsushika Hokusai, said: "I have never been satisfied, I always think that I want to paint better, better, better, better, but the inspiration at the other end of the thought is always fleeting and difficult to capture." ”
Katsushika Hokusai was a well-known ukiyo-e artist of the Edo period, and if you look at his paintings, you will find that this painter who has been painting until he is ninety years old is really not a very honest guy.
Katsushika Hokusai has many names in his life, hokusai is only one of them, because he believes in the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, he once gave himself "Tatsu masa", "Thunder Bucket" and so on, and finally gave himself the name of "Painting Crazy Old Man". Hokusai was completely immersed in painting, the style was constantly changing, and the content of trying to paint was constantly changing, never satisfied.
In the film, he comforts his somewhat frustrated daughter: "How can I satisfy you before I do?" “
Only those who have devoted their passions to creation know how ironed such language is.
"Walk across this bridge and let's forget about it all.
Struggling, struggling.
Moving forward in the midst of struggle. ”
<h1 class= "pgc-h-center-line" > is a father and daughter, but also a confidant</h1>
My father's stroke came unexpectedly.
Ah Rong was naturally sad.
Fortunately, the movie does not deliberately amplify or extend that moment, but directly enters Ah Rong's hope that his father can quickly practice the ability to pick up a paintbrush, so that he has an argument with his mother.
Ah Rong's relationship with his father is very moving.
Father and daughter in blood, master and apprentice in skill, confidant in spirit.
Being understood by the people you care about the most, and it is an essential understanding, is a very rare and precious thing.
Ah Rong's relationship with his mother carries the warm texture of this world.
What kind of position is this mother in the home?
The daughter and the father are confidants, and she can only constantly worry about her daughter's marriage, hoping that her daughter will live a seemingly stable life like all daughters, although such stability has no meaning to her daughter.
But this is a mother's expectation.
The mother, aware of the connection between her husband and daughter, which was the part she could not do, watched her daughter boil the grapefruit wine that could cure stroke, she picked up a piece of grapefruit, smiled and said to her daughter: "After your father, please please." ”
Then quietly died.
Ah Rong sat on the seashore: "I thought it was my father who was afraid of losing, it was his paintings, and I valued paintings more than my parents." “
Shan comforted her: "It doesn't matter, your mother understands you." “
Understand, what a rare word this is.
The mother may not be able to understand her daughter, she may not even understand her husband, but she is wrapping the family with simple warmth.
From this point of view, Ah Rong and his father are both happy.
Parents and children, come to this world for a walk, this is a relationship that everyone cannot escape, interestingly, this is almost the most important relationship in human relations. We like to use some kind of descriptive words to define relationships, family, love, friendship, but in fact these definitions are often lost in crude, and can even be said to be a kind of laziness, as if the feelings of father and daughter and mother and daughter should be as defined.
In fact, all feelings are unique and cannot be defined, nor should they be defined to limit their possibilities.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-center-line" > the ukiyo-e life of a painter</h1>
Ah Rong touched Shangshan's face and looked at him, and Shan's hand also touched her face.
When people cry, their fingers hurt and they want to hold something, and when the person you love is in front of you, you really can't help but hold him like that.
On Ah Rong's face, a line of tears slipped.
This is her love.
"The gentleness of goodness is poison, and I drink to quench my thirst."
Edo is on fire again, Zen's home is burned down, her life and death are unknown, and Ah Rong has not reached the man who once understood her and made her want to love. Seeing each other again, Shan is the owner of a qinglou, and when it comes to Ah Rong's paintings, Shan can still distinguish which ones are Ah Rong's handwriting and which are Ah Rong's father's handwriting.
The conversation is calm, just like a friend.
After all, they were different: she spent her life painting, and he slept with good-looking women by painting. He had the ability to understand her, but he didn't want to be, but because in the end he still had his own needs.
I understand you, but we are passers-by, but we are a passer-by, but like this.
He likened her to a light in his heart, unattainable, but in the end, it was his business and had nothing to do with her.
It was he who did not have the courage to go to his own life.
The film's depiction of emotion is very calm, the ink is not deliberate, melting into daily life, and also carries a certain texture of ukiyo-e. The ukiyo-e in ukiyo-e was originally also written as a melancholy, and ukiyo-e is a description of a flowing world, just like a person like a duckweed, drifting on the water, and these emotions are also like flowing water, which will flow past.
Fall on paper and paint into poetry.
If there is no such record, the past, it will pass.
After Shan's death, the women in ah rong's paintings are different geisha after another, they may all be related to shan, and they all have different emotions and stories.
This part is very moving.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-center-line" > what is the light of Ru</h1>
It's a great movie.
Good look means literally, but also behind it.
Composition, light and shadow, visual language, pleasing to the eye.
Characters, stories, emotions, delicate and natural good-looking.
After the father finished painting Mt. Fuji, the daughter exclaimed: It is really powerful.
My father said: I really want to live five more years, I can become a real painter, I will.
Words are the most deceptive thing, and they can be the most honest.
But this time, you are believing.
The old Ah Rong was still painting, bringing home stones, fruits and leaves, and some people understood her, and some people laughed at her.
She only rests her brushstrokes on the canvas.
"This is the light, the world is composed of light and shadow, shadow, shaping all things, light, highlighting all things."
Many things are nothing more than that.
Just look at what is the light of Ru and what is the shadow of Ru.
