Synopsis
The film is adapted from pocket chocolate's popular manga of the same name, directed by Gollum director Xi Chao.
The film takes lanxi, a small town in southern China, as the actual location, tells the growth experience of several high school students in the town about dreams, friendship, family affection and first love, and depicts a very Chinese style, fresh and beautiful youth story.
Youth does not disperse
The fresh and delicate painting style and the beautiful and romantic colors depict a beautiful picture that only belongs to the youth of the student era; However, the empty plot, thin love triangle, and tedious lines make the original color of the film become "eclipsed".
In addition, the film's forced literature and art and the sense of being rigid and rigid make the youthful resonance that could have been outside the golden jade instantly become defeated.
Whether it is the truth of the third dimension or the fantasy of the second dimension, the word youth always inadvertently comes into our eyes; Those ignorant and innocent smiling faces in the student era are enough to add infinite beauty to youth.
The film takes the protagonist Tu Xiaoyi's return to his hometown Lanxi in 2018 as the starting point, takes looking back at the high school junior era in 1999 as the main body of the story, and the 19 years in between is a blurred concept, so from the beginning of 1999, the film has a strong color image to resonate with memory, whether it is a game of Tetris, or a blackboard newspaper, or a slam dunk master, which is enough for the audience to find their former youth marks.
In the name of "dreams", from some levels, it may be possible to blur the pressure of the college entrance examination, but this so-called escape is actually a way to say "goodbye" to youth in disguise.
The so-called dreams in the mouths of the "poor students" make a powerful separation between perception and reality, and the appearance of Qi Jingxuan may be to enrich the storyline, but the inseparable relationship between the three people seems to make the original story setting unable to justify itself.
The heroine Yao Zhetian is the goddess in the hearts of many boys, and although her parents bring her great pressure, she still insists on herself, which can be said to have established a positive image of students; And when she danced in the theater, no one cared after leaving.
In addition, at the end of the film, the male protagonist inexplicably gave up the college entrance examination, left his city, and resolutely went to the comic studio in Shenzhen, and at this time, the beautiful dreams that had been talked about seemed to become the clouds of the past at this moment.
Youth is a beautiful word, but also belongs to the proposition and self-identity of everyone's growth; And every "goodbye" is to meet again, but unfortunately, in the youth of "Yesterday's Blue Sky", the youth presented may not have been "goodbye"!
Step by step, domestic animation has been slowly on track in recent years.
In 2015, the most "burning" national comic "The Return of the Great Sage", the most "shocking" national comic "Big Fish and Begonias" in 2016, the most "adult" national comic "The Great Protector" in 2017, and this year is this "most beautiful" national comic "Yesterday's Blue Sky".
What is touching is that today's domestic animation "predecessors" also voiced on Weibo to help "Yesterday's Blue Sky". "The Return of the Great Sage" said: The loneliness of youth may only be understood by those who have experienced youth; "Big Fish and Begonias" said: Go with the missed ta, and return to the summer when the cicadas are chirping; "The Great Protector" says: Under the blue sky, the young man's heart is full of light.
In fact, whether the movie is good or bad, we can see the youth of our youth when we were young. The summary of the movie is always happy and disgusted, but in the end it is not an outdated youth drama...
