Chapter 16 information ball

I saw some people criticize Xu Anhua's "Day and Night in Tin Shui Wai", to the effect that such a film is too light and lacks information. "Day and Night in Tin Shui Wai" lacks everything except information.Lu Xiaohua, the screenwriter, wrote down the details of each meal in the play in detail, and Xu Anhua, who understood it well, restored it every meal: the old lady who lived alone bought a bunch of vegetables and divided them into two fried meals; There must be green vegetables and dishes with eggs as the main ingredient in the meal. The only time there is meat is the pigeon that was packed and brought back after the dinner; what’s more, the main course of the mother and son’s meal was mushrooms given by the old lady. For the next meal, a flower mushroom is served in a small bowl alone - it is probably the leftovers from the previous meal and eaten hot.Watching "Day and Night in Tin Shui Wai" is like catching a ball on the court. The opponent is serving the ball leisurely, but I am in a hurry to catch the ball. I can only hear the sound of "swish" all around, and I am lucky to catch it one by one. .People who think it lacks information are probably a kind of spiritually transparent people, and everything can pass through the body smoothly without leaving traces.

I also saw someone criticize my friend's film review, and the reason is the same: lack of information.The film reviews he is eager to see should probably cover Godard's birth and death years, Bazin's experience in founding "Cinema Handbook", how many feet of film "Made in Hong Kong" used, and should not mention his girlfriend's love and plot. It should not be lamented that the scenery in the play is roughly the same as what I saw during the last family outing, and the flowers on the balcony are mentioned at the end of the chapter, and it rained while writing, which is even more of a capital offense.

In fact, the real is not necessarily real, the imaginary is not necessarily imaginary, the grand is not necessarily grand, the small does not necessarily mean small, numbers are not the numbers we see, information does not necessarily have to appear in the form of information, only seeing mountains is mountains When I was young, I hoped to know where the fire broke out, who died, and the results of the US election in the first place, and I thought that information must be numbers, events, and so-called dry goods. The life experience of others is information.In the newspaper supplement, an unknown author reviewed his life as an educated youth, and wrote that on a night when he went to the town to watch a movie, he saw the lights in the village on the hillside and suddenly couldn’t walk. All the news of that night, All of a sudden, the wives of patients on the forum posted about their husband’s life after illness. In order to speed up his recovery, they got rid of the habit of going to restaurants and started cooking at home. Eating an apple every day" counts as clearing the lungs, and the scene of their lives suddenly revived around me-I have been eating apples every day since then.

After seeing that mountains are not mountains, I know how to absorb information from those words and images that seem to be plain, but are soaked in the life experience of others.Talking in Rohmer's movies, Fenyang in Jia Zhangke's movies, and movies like "The Grocery Store's Son", the stories are so simple that there are almost no stories. From the vantage point, you can see the conflict and understanding between father and son, career difficulties and breakthroughs, tradition inheritance, the problem of empty-nest elderly, family values, love values, and even what is happiness.

The length of life is limited, so the best way to double or triple this length is to learn from the life experience of others.However, information balls carrying the experience of others are everywhere, passing by with a "swish" sound all the time, just to see if you have noticed it.
