Chapter 121: Two Big Men Who Watched the Movie (Middle)
"Uh, isn't this okay?" Of course Bong Joon-ho knows who Lee so-man is, even if he hasn't seen it much, he has heard it more than once, of course he is happy that the other party has such a courteous attitude, but he also has his own embarrassment. "I have a problem, every movie is watched for the first time while taking notes and commenting, this problem has been going on for decades, and I can't change it, so I rush in to watch it in the afternoon every time, if so many of you bother you, how much will it be if you bother you"
"It doesn't matter!" Li Xiuman immediately clenched the other party's hand affectionately again. "I just want to hear Director Bong's teachings!"
"Yes, yes?" Bong Joon-ho finally had nothing to say.
In this way, Lee so-man and Bong Joon-ho sat in the middle of the first row, Bong Joon-ho's side was Kim Young-min, Lee so-man's side was Yoon Jae-geun, and even Yu Yong-jin and Kangta were honestly sitting in the back, not to mention the others.
And just a minute after the opening, Lee so-man saw this problem with Bong Joon-ho.
"The opening music was very good. Bong Joon-ho picked up the pen and wrote as he spoke. "This is Kim Jong-ming's specialty, and he has a natural advantage in music, which must be admitted. And I have a hunch that his handling of the soundtrack will inevitably be more brilliant, just watch it slowly. ”
Li Xiuman opened his mouth, and he didn't know whether to echo or shut up and watch the movie seriously.
The beginning of the movie is very simple, Jin Wanshi, an old grandfather who rides a motorcycle to deliver milk in the early hours of the morning, can always meet another old lady who is barely dragging in tatters, and after passing by many times, slowly the two began to contact because of a small accident. Jin Wanshi is always full of swear words, and the old lady who collects tattered is always quiet to the point of being almost timid, but it is these two people who gradually rely on each other after many early morning encounters and acquaintances.
"It's so beautiful!" Bong Joon-ho spoke again in the third minute. "Look at this encounter between the two in the snow, the snow on the ground is definitely not foam. The heroine's breath can melt away the snowflakes of her hair, and this detail is too beautiful. ”
Lee so-man opened his mouth again, he wanted to ask Bong Joon-ho, 'Are you talking to me'?
The movie continues, I don't know where to start, the old man who delivers milk and the old lady of the Song family who collects rags gradually lean their hearts together because of loneliness. Jin Wanshi tried to force Wu Daxiu from the scrap shop to keep the remaining milk cartons for himself. In this way, he can take more care of the old lady who collects the rags, but what he doesn't know is that every time he passes by the house with the street lamp on, the old lady Song also regards the roar of his motorcycle as her daily dependence every time, and even the street lamp that he thinks is fixed on by himself is turned on by the old lady Song in advance every day. The so-called love is accumulated little by little.
In the end, when the old man Jin Wanshi found out that the old lady of the Song family did not show up in the morning, he was a little distraught, and when he saw the other party appear in the house of the old man Zhang Junfeng, the caretaker of the parking lot, he was a little jealous, but what he didn't know was when he met another crazy woman in the park. The Song family, who was watching from afar, was also a little sad. At this time, perhaps their living blood has gradually become clear, and they have fallen in love.
Kim Jong-ming handled this plot very well, allowing the other couple to fall into a misunderstanding between the two of them, so as to promote the development of the plot and also make both parties understand their hearts. Bong Joon-ho routinely commented, but this time he was educated.
"Director Bong Joon-ho, this plot was set in the original manga from the beginning. Kim Young-min interjected a little helplessly. "Jin Zhongming didn't process anything. ”
"That's even more remarkable!" Bong Joon-ho patted his thigh. Talking about sex actually came up. "A rookie director will always deliberately modify the plot in order to show his so-called ability. Jin Zhongming can keep good things while writing screenplays, which shows that he sees himself very clearly!"
"Yes, is it?" Kim Young-min touched his nose and could only respond in embarrassment.
"And that's not the best thing he's done in those 30 minutes. Bong Joon-ho continued to pat his thigh and commented.
"You mean music?" Li Xiuman tried to talk. "This theme song of his is really outstanding, and from my point of view, the rhythm of the piano is the soul. The background of the cello is the skeleton, and the beating violin is flesh and blood. In the end, the notes bring these things together completely. ”
"That's a good point. Bong Joon-ho nodded repeatedly. And the piano also expresses the beauty and gentleness of the two grandmothers, the cello and the cello express the calmness and restraint of the grandfathers, and the violin makes me hear the naughtiness, the body is still old but the heart can still be young. Therefore, it is very appropriate for the actor to use the violin when he peeked at the adult channel just now. But. These are not the smartest things from a director's point of view. ”
"What do you mean?" Li Xiuman humbly asked for advice.
"The most important thing is the scene!" Bong Joon-ho nodded and continued to comment. He knew that he didn't have enough skills to grasp the scene, so almost all the scenes were clean and peaceful, and there were rarely more than five people. This is a two-pronged thing, which not only avoids exposing his directing skills but also appropriately grasps the theme, which is the same reason that "Old Boy" filled a lot of space with songs and dances. I have to admit that Kim Jong-ming knows how to make use of his strengths and avoid his weaknesses! And according to this reasoning, the plot of the whole movie should not be complicated, but he will definitely make the details and pictures particularly outstanding. ”
"Oh!" Director Bong Da said Yin Jae-geun nodded again and again, so Li Xiuman also nodded as if he didn't understand.
While talking, the movie entered a small climax, Zhang Junfeng ran over from the far end of the alley, he was looking for his lost Alzheimer's wife, that is, the crazy woman who regarded Jin Wanshi as her husband, the two hugged each other in the alley, and Jin Wanshi and Song stood on one side with a heart. The misunderstanding was solved, the hearts of the two leaned together again, and the four old people also made new friends with each other because of this misunderstanding.
As the movie continues, the picture brightens, the soundtrack appears cheerful and melodious, and the love between the two old men progresses rapidly. They sat on the same motorcycle for the first time, they talked about their past for the first time, they handed in a love letter and tried dating for the first time, and bought a gift for the first time. At the same time, everything about the four old people is revealed in front of the audience.
Jin Wanshi has been stubborn all his life, as long as it is something he is not used to, he will open his mouth to scold his mother, and his granddaughter Jin Yun'er ran over to ask him why he was so fierce but was scolded away by his face. He didn't give his wife a good face for half his life, but when his wife got cancer, he found that he couldn't buy milk for the other party, because he couldn't drink milk because of that illness! So, after his wife left, this old man with filial piety and a wealthy family rode a motorcycle every day to deliver milk, looking forward to making up for his mistakes in this way.
Song is a girl in the countryside, the kind of village where she doesn't even give a girl a name, when she was 16 years old, she eloped with a man to Seoul for so-called happiness, but after a lifetime, she found that she didn't even know what happiness was. Now she is just an old lady with no children, no property, no friends, and even no name.
As for the caretaker of the parking lot, Zhang Junfeng and his wife, they are a bunch of couples with a group of children, but the group of children will always pay lip service to their promise of 'coming to see them often', and if it does become a reality, it must be when they are short of money.
However, fortunately, now Jin Wanshi and the Song family know each other, and Zhang Junfeng and his wife have always owned each other.
Bong Joon-ho didn't know when he had stopped talking, he picked up the pen and quickly wrote something in his notebook, and the people in the movie theater who originally came with the idea of 'learning from the opponent's advanced experience and then hitting the opponent' were all staring at the big screen silently, including Lee so-man.
On the screen, Kim Wan-seok chose a good name for the Song family-Song Yifen, and everyone smiled knowingly, because this name means beautiful in Korean. Song Meili, how old-fashioned this name is, but how it fits Jin Wanshi's state of mind. Subsequently, Kim Yoon-a, who works in the neighborhood committee, is the granddaughter of Kim Man-seok played by Song Ji-hyo, and she is working hard to thread the needle for the two old people, showing the healthy and upward side of a young woman extraordinarily wonderfully. And it is precisely with the efforts of Kim Yuna that the two old men have entered the substantive stage.
The old man Song Yifen was frugal and bought a leather glove for Jin Wanshi, which was almost a token of love, and Jin Wanshi, who understood the other party's intentions, wore these gloves even when he slept, and even slapped the gloves again and again in front of all the people he knew, and the purpose was just to ridiculously want people to ask about the origin of his gloves.
However, these beautiful things seem extremely fragile in front of another thing, and suddenly, Zhang Junfeng's wife, who has Alzheimer's disease, is diagnosed with terminal illness again! And because of her age and unstable mental condition, the doctor bluntly announced to Zhang Junfeng that she had decided to abandon treatment.
It turns out that birth, old age, sickness and death, especially the last three, are too close for these old people, as if they will come in the next second.
Zhang Junfeng, who was reluctant to give up his wife, thought for a long time, and one night, he gathered all the children, and then gave the savings to the youngest daughter at will, and finally took his wife to stand at the door to bid farewell to the group.
After doing all this, Zhang Junfeng carried a ladder to the door, locked the gate, and climbed back into the courtyard into the house, where he directly sealed all the doors and windows inside with duct tape, ignoring the charcoal fire and gas in the house. In the end, he hugged his wife who had long been unable to understand his words and made a promise to be together for the rest of his life, and then thoughtfully crushed the sleeping pills and fed them to his wife, and lay quietly beside his wife.
