Do not seek the film to sell well, only ask the audience to really "buy", as long as the heart to feel, the heart will definitely change, even a little, our family has the elderly, everyone will become old... Hats off to the old artists!
"Everything Like You" is a touching film with joy and tears, touching and reflection, the film takes the warm story of ten families as the main line, takes the aging background of today's society as the core, you can see you in the film, you can also see me, through the actors' "walking heart" performance, perfectly portraying the charm and inheritance of the "national style in the new era".

In today's mainstream of commercial films, so many film workers are willing to invest time and energy together to create works that seem to be "non-mainstream" but "Allah", regardless of returns, which is worthy of our applause for this film. During the filming process, 16 veteran artists with an average age of 87 years old strongly supported and devoted themselves to performing. The 98-year-old teacher Yu Lan played an old man with dementia in a wonderful way, making the audience cry. Teacher Tian Hua, 91, and Xie Fang, 84, have created very memorable images in the film. The 97-year-old teacher Qin Yi was sick and hospitalized, and could only shoot in the hospital, which deeply touched everyone on the scene. The 89-year-old teacher Yu Yang has been in the film for 20 years, and after seeing the script, he decided to co-star with his old partner, Teacher Yang Jing, and played the next generation with young actor Zhang Yixing. Zhang Yixing cherished this opportunity very much, and brought ten pairs of shoes for the director to choose for the role, what people did not expect was that Teacher Yang Jing also brought ten sets of clothes for this role, and their professionalism infected everyone. It is the selfless dedication of so many artists like this that makes this film that is not easy to present. Teacher Tian Hua choked up several times in an interview and blushed: "Serving the people with performing arts is my lifelong belief, and this film gives me the opportunity to confirm this belief." The years are not sparing, but my heart is not old, I will continue to act. Daniel Zhang Hand Teacher, who played the company commander Fang Yong in "Surprise Attack", expressed excitedly: "Please go to the cinema to see this movie, this is really a warm, touching, different movie, you must come to see, you must come!" ”
Four young directors, Huang Zhaohan, Fu Shaojie, Zhang Nan and Li Zhen, shared many touching stories from the film's two years of shooting at the meeting. During this period, some of their grandparents became seriously ill and some died. Their common feeling is that they have found the prototype of the character in their grandparents and grandparents. You will feel that they are creating with their hearts, and you can also see their personality growth in the creative process. One theme, four directors, ten stories, sixteen veteran artists, thirty-two actors, a seventy-year-old age span, and more than six hundred days and nights have finally made this heart-warming film. After the end of the movie, a number of veteran artists on the scene sent the deepest encouragement to the four young directors, and jointly called on more young people to use their artistic talents in the positive energy creation of true feelings.
This genre film, which is connected by ten stories, although the plot is independent, it does not make people feel jumpy, because the main theme of each story is very clear. The overall film has no great sense, only true feelings, from the story of "Let's Go, Bike", we can see an old man using a bicycle to conquer the distant struggle; from the story of "Hanging Memory", we can see that even if the old man loses most of the memory of life, he will remember the attachment of a piece of peach crisp to her child; from the story of "Can't Stand Up", let us as children must pay attention to the major risk of the old man falling unexpectedly at home; from the story of "Reverse Growth", We can see that old age is just another state of life and happiness; from the story of "Old Partner", we can see two old people showing the love that is engraved in their hearts through a cute puppy in the family...
Although the movie "Everything Like You" is not so "commercial", it is really "heartwarming" and warm. There is no huge production, all the actors are public welfare performances, each story is short and sophisticated, ten stories are natural and smooth, "warm" is the biggest attraction of this film.
The Mid-Autumn Festival hopes that you will take your elders, children and family into the theater to feel the very "warm" movie "Everything Like You" in a smile and hug.
