Chapter 897 The Fighting Red Sparrow
In fact, as Zhou Bin said, why do many foreign audiences react differently from domestic audiences after watching it?

Because people who don't understand that era, or Hong Kong Island in that era, will indeed find it difficult to understand some things and plots in the movie.

It might even look a little awkward.

Why do mooncakes need to be paid monthly?

What did you eat when you patted the table?
Is the love between the hero and heroine a bit bloody?
But the fact is that this story is the real experience of Meng Qiguang.

Zhou Bin's second film review is the real film review.

"The red sparrow appeared many times in "The Thief of Time", which can be said to be the finishing touch of the whole film.

The red sparrow is a kind of betta fish. It is famous for its aggressiveness. When two males meet, they must have a duel. When they fight, they open their cheeks and shake their fins. People are such a group of red sparrows who fight against fate and life.

Hong Kong people like to keep goldfish. On the one hand, they can be used as pets. On the other hand, they believe in the mascot of fish and food for good luck.So at the beginning of the film, we can see the colorful fish in the fish tank in the goldfish shop. Some of them are called "Colorful Immortals" and some are called "Golden Jade Mantang".Through the transparent fish tank, we can see the bright, clear and curious eyes of Luo Jiner (younger brother). It is under the guidance of such eyes that we also see the efforts of an era, a society, and a group of bottom-level outsiders. struggle.

The younger brother is used to "stealing" to satisfy his curiosity and satisfaction. He is mischievous and cunning, collects the things he has stolen and regards them as his most beloved things.He stole the round fishbowl and imagined it to be an astronaut's helmet to go to the moon, he draped the stolen Eagle flag over his body and ran like the wind; , These are the behaviors of innocent and pure naughty children.

He is like a carefree little fish in a fish tank, living freely in the water, looking at the colorful world through the bright glass.

In my younger brother's eyes, his father always keeps his head down and does his own work, and sometimes he likes to listen to old dramas that he doesn't understand.In the era when machine production gradually replaced handicrafts, his father still worked purely by hand, and he always retained the shadow of the era when inland people worked hard and stuck to their duties.Compared with his staid father, he thinks his mother is a shrewd, capable and righteous "Mrs. Luo". No matter what she encounters, her mother maintains an optimistic spirit. One step is difficult, but one step is better; .This is not only the philosophy of Mrs. Luo's life, but also the spiritual philosophy of the mainlanders in that era who went to Hong Kong Island to work hard.

It doesn't matter if he is bullied and bullied for his poor grades, because he has an elder brother who symbolizes perfection and always strives for the first place, the person he loves the most and the person he admires the most.

Putting on the fishbowl helmet, he led the audience to see a deformed Hong Kong Island society in the 60s.Although the times are advancing and society is developing, the gap between the rich and the poor is constantly widening, especially the mainlanders living in Hong Kong Island, who are living in a deformed social life.In an era when Chinese and English are equally important, and in urban life where English is more important than Chinese, the younger neighbors still live in the poor environment of the mainland, and the neighbors live in harmony like a big family.When big machines and big factories appeared, when hair salons created by men and women of all kinds appeared, and when various skyscrapers began to be built, they still stayed in this quiet, comfortable and hard-working neighborhood to spend their years.

Time is fast-forwarding, but it is difficult for them to keep up with the changes of the times. They still retain the manual work of the past. The inherent way of life in the past has been deeply rooted in their hearts. For Mr. Luo and Mrs. Luo, they feel that I can just live my life in such a quiet and comfortable way, and I don't want to change.

But when it comes to the education of their children, they keep up with the pace of the times, let their children receive a good education, and hope that their sons can keep up with the development of the times, and they themselves will be the best backing, sheltering them from wind and rain. Repeat the previous way.All hopes are placed on one person, we want him to be strong, and then we want him to be good.Shinichi has also endured it all the time, he has been doing well, he is the greatest pride, he has become a role model for the block, it seems that the block has just been established, all the people are full of longing, and he is working very hard, because tomorrow is not far away, tomorrow will be To come, one must believe in it.

The younger brother saw his elder brother succeed, saw him falling into a sweet love, and deeply engraved every word his elder brother said in his heart, but he also saw that such a perfect and tall elder brother failed in front of him, powerless fell, and left him forever.Things are always difficult to fulfill the perfection in people's hearts. Faced with the coming of the storm, Mr. Luo and Mrs. Luo's family did not escape or shrink back, but worked together to keep their only property, the shoe store.However, in the face of advanced blood cancer, the family tried everything they could but could do nothing.

Maybe it was because he was too perfect, so fate gave him the greatest bad luck. When the younger brother accompanied his elder brother to seek medical treatment in Peking, which he had longed for, he saw death for the first time, and was so close to him for the first time.He was very scared, afraid that his brother who was always so perfect in his heart would leave him.Jinyi is like that beautiful red sparrow that has never been defeated. It has been struggling with the outside world and is constantly working hard.When he saw his girlfriend's affluent family conditions, he suddenly felt that he was very small. The world of the upper class was like the gorgeous big fish tank of Fang Fei's family. This beautiful red bird from a poor family wanted to integrate into such a world. However, he was quarantined because "the water quality is different, and he may have germs on his body", and he has been sad since then.After getting sick, he has no power to compete with the world anymore, and his life has been burned out in the years.

Following him are the years of Mr. Luo and Mrs. Luo and Luo Jiner.As time passed, her father also left, and Mrs. Luo wore the "difficult and beautiful" shoes made for her by Mr. Luo, and walked step by step. After walking through the most difficult typhoon, she finally saw the beautiful rainbow.

But the years have stolen too many precious things. The father who was always the top of the family is gone, and the perfect elder brother who pinned the hopes of the whole family is also gone.

Luo Jiner heard from his grandma that if he wanted to reunite with his relatives, he had to throw his most beloved things into the sea of ​​bitterness until the sea of ​​bitterness was filled.For his brother, he can throw away everything he loves without hesitation, all of which are also the best and most cherished memories of his childhood.Many years later, he grew up, and he was admitted to the school where his brother was at when he didn't like reading. He always believed in what his brother said and the promise he made to him.

For a long time, he memorized the English alphabet backwards and was admitted to the outstanding boys' school. He was doing what his brother hadn't done, but he couldn't be perfect. He was never a brother, but he still walked with his mother, and also I have always believed that there will be "double shadow neon lights" in the sky!
"The Thief of Time" uses the fish tank to describe the era of development and change, uses the hardships to describe the golden years, and uses the bottom to describe the dreams of elites. It is in such a difficult fish tank that the red bird is striving for its own dream of the times and the hope of life. . The sincerity of "The Thief of Time" is that it restrains its sorrow, reveals a smile, and is always waiting for a faint hope. "
