1999, at the end of the century, Stephen Chow released his film "king of comedy". I remember watching it in junior high school, and I thought it was average. But as I grew up, I realized more and more that life in movies contains a valuable spirit. Just as the school held a reading and watching essay activity, I will share my understanding of this film with you in the form of feedback.
I remember at the beginning of the film, the hero went to the seaside, shouted "Work hard, struggle" at the vast sea, and then gently turned around and walked out of the camera. When I saw this opening, I vaguely felt that this film was different from Stephen Chow's previous nonsense style. Yin Tianchou, the hero of the film, is a walk-on extras who usually do chores in community welfare homes. He loves acting and wants to be an actor, but he is often ridiculed by others, but he still sticks to his ideals. The film mainly shows the hard struggle of the little people at the bottom of society. Although Stephen Chow's comedy line was continued, the audience often laughed with sighs and sadness.
Persistence and simplicity
There are many scenes in the film: Yin Tianchou, a walk-on, always carries a copy of "Actor's Cultivation" by Russian comedian Staniford Lavschi. This dramatic contrast often makes me laugh, but there is a touch in this smile. Admittedly, Qiu Tian may not understand this book, but he always takes it with him because of his persistence in performance.
There are countless examples of Qiu Tian's obsession with film performance.
Friends who have seen it, do you still remember those two scenes? On the same day, Qiu went to the studio assistant sunny for the second time to say anything, no money, as long as there is a lunch; In another scene, Sister Juan asked him to be the leading actor and asked him if he had any questions. He said, "Is it possible to have lunch every day?" What a simple idea. Qiu naively likes acting. As long as he has a mouth to eat, he must insist on acting and dreams.
In fact, persistence is often accompanied by simplicity, and the reason for persistence is because of simple love.
Humble and self-esteem
"Shit, I am a piece of shit. Life is cheaper than mosquitoes. You drive a Mercedes, and I dig nose excrement. Knowing the death. " I was really sad to hear the episode of this movie, especially the sentence "I know I can't move after I die". Yin Tianchou is a brave man. Few people dare to use poor books to fight their seemingly impossible dreams. But in fact, no matter how obsessed Qiu Tian is with acting, even how superb his acting skills are, he is a humble little person who is always ridiculed and trampled on at will, which seems to be his fate. I remember at the beginning of the film, Qiu Tian gave his assistant Sang Ni a nervous expression in order to win a walk-on opportunity. To tell the truth, Qiu Tian's performance was in place, but in the end, Sonny pulled Qiu Tian's head contemptuously and told him to go away. In fact, sunny was not prepared to give Qiu Tian a chance from the beginning, but just fooled this humble little person with a teasing attitude. Qiu Tian was laughed at "tirelessly" in almost every performance.
