This year's Spring Festival stalls have brought surprises. Unlike previous years, this time there is no single type of film dominating, but a variety of themes converge with their own characteristics, leaving the audience with free choice.
The abundance of film genres is a good thing, because it means that the competition between the "dark horses" will be more intense. As for who will win the final box office and word-of-mouth battle this year, it is still difficult to predict. But it is worth mentioning that this year's Spring Festival is also mixed with Valentine's Day, which makes the movie "Let's Pull the Sun Together" have an additional competitive advantage because of the strong love element.
First of all, a brief introduction to the basic plot of "Let's Shake the Sun Together". The film tells the story of the "brainless" Lu Tu (played by Peng Yuchang) and the "unhappy" Ling Min (played by Li Gengxi), two young people with very different personalities but both suffering from serious illness, who unexpectedly embarked on a journey full of love and strength because of the "relay of life". The keywords of love, strength, and ** run throughout, positioning the genre of the movie as "warm realism".
How does warm realism fit with the Spring Festival stalls and Valentine's Day, let's not talk about it for the time being. Let's focus on the film itself, especially director Han Yan. It may be strange to mention his name, but "Fuck off! "Tumor", "Send You a Little Red Flower" and "I Love You!" You should have heard of these masterpieces that have achieved a double harvest at the word-of-mouth box office. These films are all Han Yan's masterpieces. He has been hailed as a "guide to warm realism", and it is not an exaggeration. He is accustomed to dissolving heavy topics in a relaxed and humorous way, and warming his aching heart, which resonates with the audience. In "Tumor" and "Little Red Flower", this approach is clearly demonstrated. Now, "Let's Beat the Sun Together" is the final chapter of the "Life Trilogy" series, and Han Yan has further upgraded this technique, which is more likely to arouse the audience's expectations for life and yearning for life.
You may be curious, how did Han Yan dissipate the heavy topic in a relaxed and humorous way, and use the warmth and pain to **? First, let's look at the lightness and warmth in Shake the Sun. The mother-son duo played by Peng Yuchang and Xu Fan is the humorous role of this film, and they show an optimistic family atmosphere, which makes people feel that even if they grow up in difficult situations, they will not be too bad. In addition to this, the warm interaction between the male and female protagonists is also unforgettable. Although life is full of ups and downs, they accompany each other, face together, and never give up. Whether getting married on a tour or riding in the pouring rain, they always strive to cut out the gloom of fate.
However, the core content of "Shaking the Sun" is the seemingly heavy proposition of "birth, old age, sickness and death". Ling Min and Lu Tu, as seriously ill patients, showed different attitudes towards life. This makes the audience wonder what choice they will make when they or their loved ones face a similar dilemma.
Han Yan's focus is not only on seriously ill patients, but on how every ordinary person lives in a difficult situation. He explores the theme of lonely souls saving and accompanying each other, providing warm comfort and support for the audience.
Although the Spring Festival stalls are very lively, behind this, there are always some people who are worth paying attention to, accompanying and encouraging. In the cinema, we are free to move through emotions and think about the meaning of life. This kind of experience may be the unique feeling of growth during the Spring Festival.
In general, "Han Yan's products must be warm and boutiques". From "Tumor" to "Little Red Flower" to "Shaking the Sun", although his works are not deliberately sensational, they have deeply touched the hearts of the audience, triggering reflections on life and attitudes towards life.
After watching the movie, we may sigh: in this noisy world, we fall in love with life again. May you have the same experience.
