I don't know if when you watch "Burst into Silence", is it the same as the protagonist of the movie, do not want to speak again, aphasia ...
The plot of the movie is actually quite simple, the content of "Bursting Into Silence" is the same as the title, silent violence. The male protagonist is the mute Zhang Baomin, showing violence with his fists, from the beginning to the end, but this kind of almost violence is the lowest level of powerlessness; Lawyer Xu, who is bright in appearance but in a gray area, seems to be calm and gentle, silent and quiet, but the violence he shows is the most cold and terrible! Of course, there is also the powerful abuser Jiang Wu, played by the local tycoon Jin Zhongchang boss, who shows the most diversified and comprehensive violence. I remember that there is a scene in the movie: Boss Chang is sitting in front of a table full of lamb cutting plates and eating hot pot, the machine next to him is clicking and cutting mutton, another mine owner says that he believes in Buddhism and eats vegetarianism, but Boss Chang calmly said: "Sheep are also vegetarian"... Then beatings, threats, intimidation and other means jump out, and victory is complete!
These three men sang a perfect interpretation of violence, but complained of a silent tragedy! The wonderful brain-burning part of the whole drama is not the reversal ending of the usual suspenseful game, but the detailed scenes that seem to be inadvertently shown. The series of all the detailed scenes is the essence of this brain-burning film. The protagonist in the movie is just guiding the development of the plot, and understanding the details, you are the real protagonist. However, the series of all the details will only make you understand until you see the whole movie.
Detail 1:
Zhang Baomin learned that his son was missing and returned home to meet the village chief, and the foreign cigarette that the village chief handed to Zhang Baomin to smoke appeared on the table of Boss Chang later. The village chief transported mineral water to his home in a whole truck. These two points illustrate the transfer of benefits between Boss Chang and the village chief, who knows that mining has polluted the water source, but he takes care of his own safety and covets the bribe of Boss Chang.
Detail 2:
Boss Chang likes to shoot animals and eat mutton, and in the fight to shoot Zhang Baomin at the end, he showed a very poor shooting level, plus when the thugs in order to threaten Zhang Baomin to hand over the lawyer's daughter lied that Zhang Baomin's son was in his hands, Boss Zhang was angry and demoralized and beat his men to death, which showed that Lawyer Xu helped Boss Chang to do perjury, and Boss Chang was in a good mood after bribing Lawyer Xu and wanted to shoot the lamb for fun, but Zhang Baomin's son, who was herding sheep in the distance, did not agree and protected his beloved lamb. Boss Chang still shot the lamb, but accidentally killed Zhang Baomin's son.
Detail three:
Chang boss's first appearance, wearing a clean suit, standing in the principal's office, while looking at the student's photos, eating tomatoes, eating is ugly, in stark contrast to his dress, here to explain why not eat apples and bananas or the like but eat tomatoes, tomatoes are red, symbolizing life and blood, because of eating too quickly, the juice of tomatoes flows to Chang boss's clothes, but Chang boss can not wipe off with a paper towel, which also expresses that the traces left by bad things are not easy to erase.
Detail four:
When Boss Chang was practicing the bow and arrow, the strings were full, but he finally gave up, although the director did not give the shot of Boss Chang's memories at this time, but it is not difficult to see that the inner world of Boss Chang at this time is extremely complicated, and when he collects the bow and arrow, there is an arrow in the shot without an arrow. The first appearance of the arrow was when Zhang Baomin was tied to the trunk of the jeep, Zhang Baomin touched the arrow and used it to untie the rope on his feet, and at the end, Boss Chang clashed with Zhang Baomin, and when Boss Chang was about to cut off Zhang Baomin's breath, Zhang Baomin touched the arrow in Boss Chang's pocket and decisively stabbed it into Boss Chang's thigh, which was able to fight back in the gap.
Here to add, Boss Chang has been asking for evidence from Lawyer Xu, and Lawyer Xu is also confused, Lawyer Xu actually does not know, because the evidence of Boss Chang's murder has been forgotten in the trunk of his jeep, that is, the arrow. This also explains why Boss Chang put the arrow in his trouser pocket and finally buried it in the dirt in a hurry.
Detail 5:
The ghost of Zhang Baomin's son appeared in the cave to untie the rope of Lawyer Xu's daughter and after Lawyer Xu carried her daughter out of the cave, he secretly glanced into the darkness of the deep cave, expressing that Zhang Lei's body was buried deep in this cave, and Lawyer Xu knew, but still did not tell Zhang Baomin. This is the same as the last sentence of Lawyer Xu: "No." "Reflecting each other reveals the horrors of human nature."
Detail 6:
Because of illegal mining, resulting in mineral pollution, the well water will become more and more difficult to drink, the village chief will transport pure water home one car after another, Zhang Baomin's wife, the mother of the plug and more villagers will get a strange disease, and the missing Zhang Lei will see the body of the bird...
Detail 7:
Why did ChangZong, who loves to eat mutton, lose so much hair that his forehead is bald, because he also eats sheep from this mining area.
And this ingenious and profound design of "giving to the other in the way of the other" has three more places in the movie:
First, the arrow that killed people and could not find an arrow finally pierced Chang Zong himself!
Second, the lawyer followed Zhang Baomin to the cave where his daughter was being hidden, and he began to be in a trance and afraid, because this place also hid his secrets!
Third, the owner of the mutton shop forced Zhang Baomin to sign the demolition supplement, in exchange for not only his own blind eye, but also his son's mental disorder because of environmental pollution.
Summary: Although the final ending is sad that people are speechless, all kinds of violence cover everything! The collapse of the mountain and the disappearance of Zhang Lei's corpse have revealed the purity of darkness, but the details of the play have already expressed a truth: evil has evil retribution! Coming out of the mix always has to pay back!
Let's rely on the scene of the two children who were once illusory in the play standing on the mountain and overlooking the city, and see some hope.
