A Little Red Flower: tolerate suffering and let the little red flower bloom in my heart.


Special feature of 1905 film network Salt lake, blue sky, white teenager, white skirt girl; It’s so clean in the warm sun, between heaven and earth … …After watching the movie, this scene must be lingering. This beautiful ideal is an illusion that Wei Yihang (Jackson Yee), a teenager, can only see before he falls sick and faints.



A smelly-faced teenager in front of a stranger is a cold-faced teenager in the eyes of his family. The taciturn and perverse "juvenile rage" is vividly reflected in the adolescent boy Wei Yihang.



Under the extreme conditions of brain cancer, all this rebellion is nothing more than a hard shell for him to choose to "confront" or escape from his own misfortune and strange eyes around him. The first half of A Little Red Flower focuses on the ice-breaking process of this layer of defense.


As a key figure who lights up Wei Yihang’s gloomy life on the plot line, Ma Xiaoyuan (played by Liu Haocun), an optimistic girl, changes everything with love. As a "senior" brain cancer patient, her weapon to break the ice is not only initiative, but also empathy beyond simple communication.


Han Yan, a director with shooting experience, once again returned to the "normal" life perspective after throwing out the protagonist’s illness dilemma. Compared with "tumor jun" who had to be confined to the ward scene most of the time, "Little Red Flower", which made many viewers call "watching a youth film", obviously went further on the positive road to sadness.


However, no matter how beautiful the picture of youth love is, its basic starting point still cannot escape the awe of life.



The opportunity for them to really get to know each other is the conflict and opposition between them on whether their cancer patients need chicken soup for the soul; Several degrees of ambiguous clutch are closely related to the recurrence of their illness.


As a highlight of the film’s plot and post-publicity, the Weibo accounts of the two protagonists have become the key clue for fans to resume the film.



The homophonic interpretation of Wei Yihang’s "WEIYI’s voyage" reflects the firm but helpless yearning of the boy with cancer to travel to distant places. The screen name of "how far to roll" is extremely suitable for Ma Xiaoyuan’s jumping personality, and at the same time, it more intuitively reflects her drive for Wei Yihang’s courage to dream.



Although their journey together failed to go far, this journey of spiritual companionship with Xiaoyuan still stirred Yihang’s heart after her death. With this growth, Yihang ordered a beef rice takeaway for her haggard father in the name of a dead girl with cancer. After knowing the secret of the lover of Wu Xiaomei (Yun-peng Yue), the owner of the cancer patient group, she chose to support silently, which really realized the difficulty for her parents to spend everything to save themselves … …


The first little red flower in the film of the first voyage that passed on the spirit of "Little Red Flower" is Xiaoyuan’s reward for his "initiative for the first time in life". If the two people’s similar illness backgrounds and family status are reflected, you will find that the process of actively pursuing a small distance under the encouragement of the other party can also be regarded as a journey of self-discovery — — The so-called proactive process is actually the acceptance of all the states such as one’s illness and dreams, unbearable and great.



Years later, Wei Yihang, who has finally completed this "only" voyage on the Qinghai Lake, which is highly corresponding to the image of the dreamland in reality, saw the face of his eternal lover and found a little red flower belonging to life and hope in the "migration of 100 million sheep".


This little red flower has actually been in the heart of Yihang. With this performance, Jackson Yee undoubtedly won a "little red flower" for his fresh but wonderful actor resume.



Different from Li Xiaobei’s guardian-like depth and courage, it seems that he only needs to return to the corner of Wei Yihang, who is a teenager, but he tests the emotional transformation of actors in multiple dimensions such as illness, autism, love and release.


That scene’s confession to Xiaoyuan after drinking is not only a self-doubt and frustrated teenager who can’t help himself after getting drunk, but also an accusation of unfair fate after being substituted into the status of a cancer patient.



"I’m afraid I’ll die as soon as I take out my heart." In addition to talent, such difficult movements are naturally voiced, and Jackson Yee’s belief in performance deserves greater praise.


Also worthy of being awarded the "Little Red Flower" are Liu Haocun, who has performed more and more, and the parents who have made intensive contributions to tears. Under the joint efforts of each audience’s unique interpretation, this "little red flower" has gradually become the public’s vision mapping.



Perhaps, you and I, who can feel the red flower in our hearts, will find the lake in our dreams in 2021.
