In the movie, Mo Sanmei's father said such a philosophical sentence: "This man is nothing but life and death." That is, this sentence laid the tone of the film.
The death of Grandma Xiaowen, the death of the little girl in the hospital, the "death" of Grandma Xiaowen's partner, the death of Mo Sanmei's ex-girlfriend husband and the death of Mo Sanmei's father. The word death has been taboo since ancient times, but in this film, it can be seen everywhere.
Compared with Mo Sanmei, except for his father's death, he shed tears and was flustered. The death of others, in his view, only belongs to the category of his funeral. Judging from the paper money he used to light a cigarette to commemorate the dead, he was familiar with other people's deaths since he was a child, and naturally there would be no waves in his heart.
All kinds of expressions about death in movies just want to tell us: Although everyone knows that people have to go through birth, illness and death, how many people can face and accept it when death really comes? Even Mo Sanmei, who is engaged in the funeral industry, never gave up on her father's departure, and portrayed it vividly through silent sobs?
If the film is just to convey these, it is obviously not enough. Movies remind and alert the living to live a better life through the topic of death, and teach people to reconcile with others, things, the past and even life.
At first, the ignorant Xiaowen blamed Mo Sanmei for her grandmother's departure, then poured all her anger on Mo Sanmei and turned against him everywhere. It is precisely because of Xiaowen's inexperience and unreasonable troubles that Mo Sanmei gnashes her teeth at Xiaowen and even "hates her guts". She likes this word, which is out of the question. However, with the constant change of the story, two unrelated "enemies" not only reconciled, but also became inseparable "father and daughter".
At first, the relationship between Mo Sanmei and her father was incompatible. As soon as they met, quarrels followed. I have always looked down on Mo Sanmei's father and saw Mo Sanmei, who is becoming more and more disappointing, from scolding to beating. Father-son relationship, where there is still a little warmth to see. With Mo Sanmei's concern for Xiaowen and her gradual understanding of her work, they moved from hostility to reconciliation. Through a bottle of wine, the two cleared up their differences, and the father and son were affectionate, which made the audience see clearly.
From hostility to reconciliation, the film is more than these two places. Mo Sanmei and her ex-girlfriend went from hostility to reconciliation; Mo Sanmei and the couple in the wedding dress shop went from hostility to reconciliation; Xiaowen and her biological mother went from hostility to reconciliation. And Mo Sanmei's reconciliation with life, although she didn't hear the drumming, the film shows that Mo Sanmei has accepted the job with peace of mind, thus completing the reconciliation with life.
An excellent film, in addition to the story spread from a unique angle, is also essential to be interspersed with delicate emotions.
Xiaowen chased Mo Sanmei to get back the impossible grandmother. That monotonous and repetitive line makes people cry.
One night, Xiaowen played grandma's recorded message in her mobile phone watch over and over again. Although grandma and Xiaowen are separated forever, in Xiaowen's memory, grandma still has a voice and a voice. The kind and warm voice made many viewers cry.
One rainy night, Mo Sanmei told Xiaowen all kinds of living habits over and over again while holding her sleeping Xiaowen to her biological mother. When Xiaowen was awakened from a deep sleep, Xiaowen's biological mother had no choice but to let the taxi driver leave quickly. Through the fuzzy window glass, Xiaowen beat the beat piteously and shouted ... Mo Sanmei suddenly realized that such a loss was unacceptable to her and followed the taxi running all the way in slippers. At this moment, how many people cried directly.
The unique theme, stories close to life and delicate emotions make the film "Life Events" easily arouse the buzz of emotions in the hearts of the audience. Then, the success of this film is of course reasonable.
