Lost in meditation, I have a lot of feelings and seem to have learned something, but I can't say anything new.
Most people who like Thunderstorm like to talk about the main characters of the older generation: the incarnation of Thunderstorm, the initiator of evil and the contradictory mother. They occupied most of the stage and attracted most people's attention. In particular, Zhou, a woman who makes people love and hate, is the central figure that many students like to discuss.
I watched it again and again and felt it again and again. Behind the glory of the protagonist, I began to pay more and more attention to two young people: Sifeng and Zhou Chong. I feel the fate of these two young people and their fantastic youth more and more.
After reading the script, I often think of a sentence: character is fate. In this tragedy, cowardice leads to suicide, forbearance leads to a silent mental patient, outbreak leads to a manic mental patient, and tenacity (admittedly this is a trait) leads to the only rational person after this disaster. Two young people, two young people who are full of dreams about the future (although their dreams are in very different directions, it is undeniable that they are both young people with dreams)-Sifeng and Zhou Chong, all fell on that thunderstorm night. Accidental? Is it inevitable?
Among all the disturbances around the Zhou government, it seems that only the young people are outside the secular world. He is naive, cheerful, sunny, inexperienced, scheming, hesitant and determined. Sometimes when I look at the script, I really wonder, how did Zhou Mansion get out of this gloomy big house? ! The stage cue describes him like this: "He is very young, but he has a big heart and all childlike fantasies. He is very young, only seventeen. He fantasized about many impossible things. He is living a beautiful dream. " Really, this is a child living in a dream. Dreams are beautiful, but once you wake up, it's time to go.
Zhou Chong was awakened by her hysterical mother in a daze. At that moment, Zhou Chong suddenly found that his mother is no longer a mother, his father is no longer a father, his brother is no longer a brother, and his lover is no longer a lover. After waking up, Zhou, who had no escape, rushed into a thunderstorm. Perhaps death is his most peaceful and eternal dream.
Someone once called Zhou Chong in Thunderstorm a midsummer night's dream. Sweet, warm and short, it was finally swept away by the thunderstorm in summer night.
What moved me most about reading Thunderstorm was not the recognition of Zhou Puyuan and Lu Shiping after 20 years, nor the outbreak when all the truth came out, but Zhou Chong's confession to Sifeng:
"Sometimes I forget the present, forget my home, forget you, forget my mother and forget myself. I think, I am like the bright sky in winter morning, ... in the vast sea ... Oh, there is a small sailboat as light as a petrel. When the sea breeze blows tightly and the sea air smells fishy and salty, white sails are all over the ground, flying obliquely at sea like the wings of an eagle, flying towards the horizon. At that time, only two or three white clouds were floating faintly on the horizon. We sit at the bow and look ahead. That's our world. "
"By the way, with you, we can fly to a really clean and happy place, where there is no dispute, hypocrisy, inequality, and ... (The head tilts slightly, as if there is such a place in front, suddenly) What do you say?"
Such a pure heart, naked dedication in front of Sifeng, can't attract Sifeng's eyes puzzled by the world. Sifeng couldn't feel it, but I vaguely heard the sound of a broken crystal heart.
However, I can't blame Sifeng. I can't blame this 17-year-old girl from the perspective of Mr. Morality. I always feel that I can't simply say that she is secular or snobbish.
Lu Sifeng, a girl of seventeen or eighteen, is healthy, sincere and loves to laugh. She knows that she looks good when she smiles. My mother is not around, and my father is an alcoholic, gambler and snob, who works as a maid in Zhoufu. There is no denying that it is probably such wishful thinking to take her into Zhou Fu. It really just happened. Although Sifeng thinks everything is silent, what happened to escape Gui Lu's shrewd Zuiyan? Sifeng knows nothing about women's liberation, human rights, labor exploitation and so on. She just wants to get her own happiness down to earth. We Taoist gentlemen, from the perspective of this child's growth, design a future for her. Is there a better way to free yourself once and for all than to get the love of the young master? Especially this young master looks so sincere and attached to her. What other choice does she have? Is she wrong? Is she wrong enough to pay the price of her life?
Gui Lu needs his daughter to be attached to the phoenix.
Zhou Ping needs a sincere heart to give him the power to get rid of love.
Sifeng needs to get the greatest affirmation of her life from Cinderella's story.
So, with the girl's pink dream, Sifeng persistently embarked on her mother's old road.
The tragedy is irreversible.
It is Sifeng's regret to miss Zhou Chong's crystal pure heart. From an outsider's point of view, we all saw that there were too many things other than love in Zhou Ping's eyes staring at Sifeng, and only she could not see them.
Be practical. Lu Xun pointed out to us very sharply and cruelly that what happened after Nora left was nothing more than coming back or falling. It is always a painful thing to fall from the paradise of dreams to the ground of reality. Let's imagine. If Sifeng was lucky enough to escape the thunderstorm and successfully eloped with Zhou Ping without knowing her brother and sister's love, would she really be happy? There are always amazing coincidences in history. This single-minded love of the four phoenixes is the life-saving straw for Zhou Ping to get rid of her stepmother's abnormal love. Regardless of the identity gap, this is a completely unequal love. When we get rid of Zhou's threat and the economic crisis of survival is in front of us, we can't help sighing for Sifeng's tomorrow.
Lu Shiping spent twenty years of suffering and half her life waiting in silence to pay for her dream when she was young.
Lu Sifeng ended her dream of youth with her life.
On a thunderstorm night, under the bright lights of Zhou Mansion, everything was distorted. Sifeng, who was scared by the truth and had no way out, rushed into the dark night. Death spread its wings and took the young man and the young dreamer-Zhou Chong.
Let's go. Reality can't tolerate them.
Leave that dreamy youth.
