Film review "Man Forty": If the soul is guilty, if not if

Jacky Cheung's song is a classic, which is tireless to hear, but it also brings some "negative effects".

A post-90s person asked me: Can Jacky Cheung, the god of song, still act?

What an international joke, the reason why Jacky Cheung's acting skills are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people is precisely because he does act well.

Unfortunately, he sang so well that people ignored his good acting skills.

So today I would like to recommend the literary and artistic film performed by Jacky Cheung and Mei Yanfang: "Man Forty", called "Rhapsody in July" in English.



Lin Yaoguo (Jacky Cheung) is a handsome and not wealthy middle school Chinese teacher. When he participated in the classmates' association, he was a little uncomfortable, even if he was called a talent by his classmates, it was difficult to hide his loss.

Compared with the current soaring of his classmates, his life is step by step and too bland.

His wife, Chen Wenjing (Mei Yanfang), is the girl he has a crush on, and when he sat in the back, he looked up and saw her long ponytail.

When he was moved, he thought that one day when he became a teacher, he would be able to look at her front. Later, by chance, he married back to the white moonlight in his heart.

Life is like a lake, with occasional ripples.

After the heavy rain after school, watching the rebellious girl Hu Cailan (Lin Jiaxin) in the class get into a luxury car, the female colleague who left work with Lin Yaoguo with an umbrella smiled and reminded him, be careful, this girl said she likes you, this matter is known to many people.

Hu Cailan is beautiful and charming, but what makes her attractive is not only her appearance.

Her literary talent is outstanding, and the compositions she writes rarely get rid of the craftsmanship early, but she does not like to read.

Little by little, she approached Lin Yaoguo, and he retreated, bent on pulling her back to school.

Her provocative sentences include: Why do you tell me to go back to school, is it sexy for me to wear a school uniform?

The composition trophy that Lin Yaoguo sent to the shop where he worked casually threw it aside, and his eyes looked warmly into people's hearts, saying: Everyone in my family is a college student, what books do I still read, and what do so many college students in my family do?

She has the touching beauty of a girl of this age, her chest is like writing the word "yong", and when she looks at her teacher Lin Yaoguo with her charming eyes, he is embarrassed and restrained.

She laughed and kissed him with a little water, he was not surprised, but his heart was very unhappy.

Shown love by a very beautiful and confident female student, he could not hide the sadness in his heart. Yes, after 20 years, he still has a thorn in his heart, and this thorn has not disappeared with age.

History is nothing more than a repetition of the old story of a female student falling in love with a male teacher.

Just like a Chinese language teacher Sheng that Lin Yaoguo liked very much, 20 years ago, it was the ex-boyfriend of Lin Yaoguo's wife Chen Wenjing.

How ironic! Teacher Sheng has good looks and talent, so he is a good-looking and literary scumbag.

When Teacher Za was ready to return to Taiwan to re-throw herself into the arms of her wife, Chen Wenjing was completely out of proportion because she was unmarried and pregnant and fell out of love.

Lin Yaoguo married Chen Wenjing, who had a crush on her.

20 years later, Lin Yaoguo and Chen Wenjing basked in the moonlight on the rooftop.

She plucked up the courage to say that Teacher Sheng had been dumped by his wife, lonely and sick, and she wanted to take care of him and accompany him through the last part of his life.

Chen Wenjing has been a teacher for 20 years, cooking soup every day, doing housework, and occasionally writing to earn extra money.

After all, Mr. Sheng was the biological father of Lin Yaoguo's eldest son, Anran, who was not yet 21 years old, and could not sign for Chen Wenjing in the hospital, and could not beat the fetus.

Jacky Cheung and Mui Yanfang's acting skills are good here, he holds chalk on the stage, holding a textbook to quote the scriptures, the teacher's image is about to come out; when she forgets to turn off the fire in the soup at home, and the fire is burning to remedy, she is a good teacher in Hong Kong.

In the play, Lin Yaoguo was very distressed after hearing it, turned around and left, smiling bitterly: When did I become the chief executive of Hong Kong?

After 20 years of being a couple, perhaps the relationship has reached the stage of holding the right hand with the left hand, so plain that it is so unreal.

But Enron's biological father has truly returned, the scumbag has no harvest, and he has also received the pity of the woman he has hurt.

Zhang Ailing said: Middle-aged men often feel lonely, because as soon as he opens his eyes, he is surrounded by people who want to rely on him, but there are no people he can rely on.

If the 40-year-old Chen Wenjing is worried about taking care of the family and making a break with a teacher-student relationship in the past, then the 40-year-old Lin Yaoguo is worried about the female student's initiative, how he keeps himself from touching the bottom line of the affair.

Lin Yaoguo, who is bent on being a good husband and father in his bones, is definitely not the kind of man who only thinks with his lower body, this is his respectable place.

He was much better than his scumbag, Teacher Sheng.

His wife took care of Teacher Sheng, sometimes even the three of them had to go to eat a box lunch, Lin Yaoguo began to be irritable and angry, his upset had nowhere to tell, in the face of Hu Cailan's attack, he began to push a little half push, both to maintain a safe distance, but also to sit down and talk.

The couple finally tells their eldest son, Enron, about his origins, and the film deals with it. Lin Yaoguo told the first half of the story, and the second half was run by Anran to ask his mother Chen Wenjing.

The elderly Teacher Sheng did not have the spirit of that year, and when he died, he was in a coma for many days.

Lin Yaoguo took Enron with him and took the tram to the hospital to visit his biological father.

In front of the hospital bed, they recited a poem "Former Chibi Fu" to Teacher Sheng, who had not woken up and turned around.

It is said that people's sense of hearing can last until the moment when people lose their breath, and I think that Teacher Sheng, who has influenced their whole life, should be able to hear it.

When I watch Cantonese films, I must listen to the original sound.

Honestly, it felt special to hear them read ancient Chinese in Cantonese.

Chen Wenjing finally wanted to break up with Lin Yaoguo, probably out of guilt, but Lin Yaoguo did not agree, he hugged his crying wife and invited her to go to see the Yangtze River together.

He stopped interacting with Hu Cailan, and the cute girl who was a little bad finally gave him a book full of comic portraits of him.

It may be that director Xu Anhua wants to borrow the hand of Jacky Cheung to end this vicious circle of teachers and students not being in love.

Of course, if Teacher Sheng fell in love with Chen Wenjing when he was single, then he was not a scumbag.

The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. Teacher-student love is also normal.

I hope that there are not so many Chen Wenjing who are stupid for the so-called love in the world, and I remember a sentence when I write here: There are too many stupid women, and there are not enough scumbags.

Mei Yanfang has a line in the play: People like to read novels because they like to have a beginning, an orgasm, and an ending, but not every ending is what you want.

Not every "Chen Wenjing" and "Hu Cailan" can be lucky enough to meet such a good person".

Women, know how to protect themselves, is really a lifelong compulsory course.

Happy friends watching this film!
