tearjerker director

Chapter 907 How will we die?
Although Li Yi guessed that "Sister Tao" would be more popular with foreign judges and audiences at the Venice Film Festival than "The Thief of Time", he did not expect that this film would actually win so much more than "The Thief of Time". evaluation of.

Italian film critic Emilio: "This is the most exciting film I have seen so far at this year's film festival. The film's film language is exquisite and elegant, and the theme reflected is deep. It shows the emotions of the two protagonists who are not relatives but relatives. In addition, the film It shows the life of the elderly and pays attention to the aging problems that are common in the world. "Sister Tao" is a movie with the strength to hit the Golden Lion Award."

Italian reporter Andrean praised: "This is a very "simple" movie. The tacit understanding and mutual love of the two protagonists is very touching. In the real society, the theme of the elderly is often ignored, reflecting the Movies about life are not common, and some movies are too artificial when they express similar themes, but the performances of the two protagonists in "Sister Tao" are real and natural, which endows the movie with a deep appeal."

The show magazine commented on "Sister Tao": "Although this film focuses on emotion, it is full of the director's taste and observation of life, full of sly humor. The film is very simple, but this simplicity is definitely not simple and monotonous "Simple", but an artistic charm that does not miss the traces of carving and craftsmanship. If "less is more" is used to describe this movie, then it must be "simplicity is beauty."

Compared with "The Thief of Time" which only got a score of less than 3 points, "Sister Tao" can hardly be called a classic, but the score of the off-site media is quite good. The score of 3.2 points makes "Peach Although "Sister" will not become the most popular award at this year's Venice Film Festival, it is also ranked fourth among all the films in the main competition unit.

It was the first time for Mu Qing to bring her film to participate in the European Film Festival, and she was delighted to receive such an evaluation.

On the contrary, Li Yi was very blessed for a few days.

However, since we are here at the Venice Film Festival, no matter whether it is Li Yi's "The Thief of Time" or Mu Qing's "Sister Tao", I definitely don't want to return empty-handed.

However, although a public relations company was invited to do public relations for the awards of the main competition unit, the strength was not particularly strong.

The main thing is the movie itself.

However, grand prizes are no longer possible, but other non-main competition units are possible.

The Volpi Cup in the Horizon unit, on the contrary, became the focus of the public relations of the two films.

Although the horizon unit is not the main competition unit, as long as it can win the prize, the trip to Venice can be regarded as a success.

After all, there are not a few films that even the Horizon unit participates in the competition.

On the domestic side, the media and film critics quickly sent back relevant reports and comments about "Sister Tao".

""Sister Tao" was praised at the Venice Film Festival. Every subtle look and movement of Sister Tao will remind you of an old man in the family: her rigidity, stubbornness and even willful mischief are all because she loves you too much. So, even if Just thinking about her is enough to make you cry." - Penguin Entertainment.

"Sister Peach" received good reviews at the Venice Film Festival: Sister Peach's lonely life is over, and our lonely life is still going on, leaving a vague topic, how will we die?" - "Film Weekly"

""Sister Tao" is adapted from a true story, which is bittersweet. Although the two protagonists in the film are not related by blood, they still love each other as mother and child. You can feel that this is a kind of affection from the heart." - "Hua Guo Film Report

The audience who watched the film at the Venice Film Festival also shared their feelings.

"You want to cry for her situation, but you are always willing to smile for her compassion. Sister Tao is the "mother"."

"Watching this movie always reminds me of the two most important women in my life, grandma and mother."

"The old ladies we think of are all the same: they love to be clean, they have a tricky mouth, and they often don't mean what they say!
She loves to be clean:

Sister Tao used her mouth to tear off a piece of facial tissue to block her nostrils when going to the toilet in the nursing home. The first thing she did after returning home was to touch the dust on the furniture involuntarily... The old lady we think of is just like Sister Tao, Clean and tidy, they always keep the house spotless, they don't let people sit on the bed, they always have a fresh smell of soap.

She has a big mouth:

Sister Tao loves to eat and is good at cooking. She feeds the family's mouth very much, and it is difficult for the family to eat ordinary meals.Is there an old lady in your family who has raised the whole family to be strong and strong for several generations, and cooks three meals a day with delicious food. When one day she can't cook anymore, you realize that you are no longer used to eating Meals cooked by other people.

She didn't mean it:
When everyone said they were going to visit Sister Tao, Sister Tao said more than once: "You are very busy with work, so don't come." Will say "busy work".At this time, why can't we often go home and have a look? .In fact, it is a sad thing for people to grow old, and they really need our company to share their sorrow. "

"It's a big feeling. In fact, each of us has "Sister Tao" around us. They may be your grandma and grandma, your mother and aunt, your old nanny and old neighbor, or even someone you only saw. An old man who has met once. Aging is more helpless and cruel than death. The child wants to support but does not want to be loved. Do what you can while there is still time. Don’t let the "Sister Tao" around you grow old and have nowhere to go."

"Watching "Sister Tao" reminds me of Grandma Yang who was my aunt for 23 years when I was young. She has a very similar personality, but the ending is slightly different. Grandma Yang was taken back to the countryside of Huzhou by her grandson who had already become rich, and died because she was not used to the damp and cold in her hometown."

"The movie was not deliberately sensational, but it was full of tears. Sister Tao's death did not arrange a very sensational scene, just like Sister Tao's life, so plain and embarrassing."

"The last time I saw Chen Weijie combing Sister Tao's hair, I couldn't help but think of my grandma, who looks very similar to Sister Tao. Unfortunately, I didn't even see her for the last time, hey!"

"I am very touched, and I am very envious that the Liang family can have such a servant who is dedicated to the master. My family also hires a nanny, but just like the servants interviewed by Sister Tao, maybe Sister Tao can treat the master's family as a family." The workers I treat only exist in the past."

"Sister Tao has devoted her whole life to the Liang family. Roger and his younger sister will take care of her retirement and take care of his funeral affairs. This is probably our ideal master-servant relationship. From beginning to end, there is love and righteousness!"

"The Thief of Time" tells the struggle history of a generation, the joys, sorrows and joys of a generation.

"Sister Peach" focuses on servants and the group of the elderly. The issue of old-age care has always been a topic that people will inevitably talk about, so this movie will make everyone think of "Sister Peach" around them!
With such a foundation, the sense of resonance will be stronger.
