Chapter 392 Black Humor
Seeing the familiar cool girl on the big screen, many viewers smiled knowingly. Although foreign audiences basically watched the North American version of "Juno", the same name, the iconic figure holding an empty pipe in her mouth, and
He talks coolly and sharply, and can guess pretty much everything.
The video continues:
On the way to the mountain village, Juno looked through the female teacher's personal information. However, after reading it, she was shocked.
It turned out that the female teacher was not a local. She was trafficked to the local area by human traffickers. She was then sold to a local old bachelor and forcibly gave birth to two children. Over time, she had no choice but to accept such a humiliating life.
Since the girl still had some education, she became a teacher at the mountain village primary school. Over time, the female teacher integrated into the local life and finally contacted her family.
However, when her family came to take her home, the female teacher suddenly couldn't bear to leave the children in the school. She finally decided to stay and continue teaching here.
I won’t discuss it here anymore, just take it easy! You should all understand it.
Rong Guang borrowed this background and started the plot:
The female teacher's name is Xiumei. Since interviewing Xiumei requires going into the mountains, after contacting the local government, they sent an accompanying person for Juno - middle-aged policeman He Ge (played by Zhang Fengyi)
Brother He is a slovenly old policeman. He takes his job as he does and often makes strange remarks. So when he saw Juno dressed like a cool girl, he couldn't stand it and started making fun of her. He didn't expect Juno to be the same.
Not being a fuel-efficient lamp, she started to fight back. The two of them bickered and slapped each other along the way, which made it seem less boring.
After driving for a long time, they finally arrived at the mountain village. However, the scenery in front of them surprised Juno again. It was not that poor, backward, and ignorant. The whole village was clean and tidy, and even the spirit of the villagers was very good.
positive……
…
There were also exclamations in the screening hall. They never expected such a wonderful unfolding.
After watching the beginning, most viewers have actually already made a judgment in their minds that this should be a realistic film about the trafficking of women. In fact, there are not many films with similar themes filmed in various countries. Generally, they are like "" filmed in China a few years later
"The Blind Shaft", this film was also shortlisted for the main competition in Cannes.
To be honest, art films like "The Blind Shaft" definitely belong to the depressive series. After watching it, I found that this is a film that makes people angry and angry, and it is also a film that makes people feel powerless and despair.
.
Because it is almost not a movie, it is reality that happens around us every day. It completely breaks our illusion of the "simple and kind" world, and puts black sin directly in front of us, making us feel ashamed.
Of course, there is another type - "The Woman Who Married the Mountain". This is a political propaganda film. Anyway, it means the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the world is peaceful! You know, "The Woman Who Married the Mountain" is a movie adapted from the prototype character? Are you special?
How could a female victim be included in a film where the country and the people are safe and the world is at peace? It was later collectively recognized as a national shame film!
Even the most basic moral bottom line is gone!
However, in "Juno 2", Rong Guang completely breaks out of this framework. It is neither like "The Blind Shaft" nor "The Woman Who Married the Mountain".
There is indeed a reason for this "Juno" series. Although "Juno" is shot in critical realism, the main tone is that cool girl with a distinctive personality, sharp words, trendy and beautiful, it is the kind of light comedy. Of course, it is
In the context of trafficking, shooting with light comedy is a bit frivolous and should be classified as black humor.
But on the other hand, letting the audience watch a very cruel story with laughter can actually make people think more, and it is also a challenge to Rong Guang's creative ability. After all, this is Rong Guang's original work, and he still hopes to achieve something
breakthrough.
Just like "Life is Beautiful", which also won the Cannes Jury Prize a few years ago, it took the story of the massacre in the concentration camps of World War II and created a comic and warm atmosphere, creating an even more shocking effect.

Back to the plot:
Under the leadership of a local cadre Li, this mountain village has been lifted out of poverty and has become a well-off society. There is no doubt that this is a good cadre who is down-to-earth and willing to work. However, I heard that Juno was going to dig up the abduction case of Xiumei more than ten years ago. His
The attitude turned to resistance. Because if you can't get a wife in the local area, people's hearts will not be stable. How can you get rich through hard work?
As a policeman, although He Ge is a bitch-tongued, he still retains some sense of responsibility in his heart. He clearly knows that this is a criminal act, but due to the pressure of the local environment, he can only turn a blind eye. But within his ability, he is still willing to
Sneak around to help Juno's investigation.
Juno is a reporter with a strong sense of justice. She is determined to expose this ugly and dark crime. She is also a good reporter.
In the film, the female teacher Xiumei's role is not important. In fact, all her words are excuses. She is "accustomed to local life", "unwilling to break up the family", "can't bear to leave the children in school", etc. Use He Ge
In other words - I also graduated from the Public Security University, how could I not know? This is Stockholm Syndrome?
So the three good people met together, and conflicts began, with frequent jokes. In the end, they found a common goal in the struggle-the TV station leader probably grew up eating shit, so how could he make such a program?
They want to make this program "Touching the Heart" completely pornographic.
Needless to say, He Ge, after such a program is broadcast, it will be a complete humiliation for all police officers;
Cadre Li also hates those indifferent writers. He hopes to maintain the peaceful life of the mountain village and let the villagers get rich as soon as possible. I hope that all the bad things in the past will be forgotten. As long as everyone can be prosperous, this will be avoided.
tragedy. And he also promised that similar incidents of abducting women would never happen in the future.
Although Juno was very dissatisfied with this result, she knew that alone, she could not reverse the pressure of the entire society. In the end, she had no choice but to compromise.
So the three cobblers started this ridiculous sabotage plan. After a series of mistakes, they finally succeeded in making the program pornographic...
Under the setting sun, Juno bid farewell to the mountain village with a pipe in her mouth. Her eyes were confused, wondering if she had done the right thing? But she gradually became determined.
Regardless of right or wrong, move forward calmly!
Chapter completed!
