Try to send the last "Summer Movie List 1⃣️ | Recommend 5 Super Healing Literary Films Suitable for Summer Watching" to the Little Red Book, and get more than 3,000 likes and collections in 2 days, which makes me full of motivation, so I began to write a second summer movie list to share.

Of course, there are 100 Hamlets in the eyes of 100 people, and I hope that the same frequency friends can like it!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15" >️ 1⃣Mr. Tom in the Mountains</h1>
Movie: Mr. Tom in the Mountains
Director: Otome Ueda
Release date: 2015
Starring: Takumi Kobayashi, Shimi Ichikawa
The reason why this movie can get a strong resonance is because the life that is difficult to achieve in reality can help you complete in advance in the movie.
In fact, some people say that this is "the spiritual opium imagined by urban people", I think this sentence is very good, this ideal life is really like opium, addictive.
We lived in the countryside as children and looked forward to urban life. But now that I live in the city, I want to go back to the countryside.
Now the countryside is very well built, with wide roads, trees, peach and plum trees planted in front of the house, and flowers planted with purple and red flowers.
I really often fantasize that one day when I don't go to work, I will go back to my hometown to live for a few months, plant flowers and vegetables, cook, drink tea, read and write poetry, and think about it is a very beautiful thing.
But the reality [for the time being] does not allow it, I feel that I can work in that direction, who in the countryside does not have a house, a vegetable field? Hahahahaha!
Mr. Tom in the film is a cat.
The actress is my favorite Satomi Kobayashi, and when I see her, I see slow life, and she seems to be: the spokesperson for single, free, self-sufficient, happy, independent women.
In the film, she works in Tokyo, often returning to the countryside to grow vegetables, raise chickens and sheep, cook food, and start writing at night.
The so-called movie healing may be to calm the chaotic heart through the life scenes in the movie.
This movie of rural life makes me look forward to the life I yearn for a little more!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="111" >️ 2⃣Heidi and Grandpa</h1>
Movie: Heidi and Grandpa
Director: Alain Guspenner
Starring: Anuk Steffen, Bruno Guntz
"Everybody laughed at me because I wanted to write stories."
"That's because people know so little, and you've seen the bigger world. If you think there's something in the world that will make you happy, do it, no matter what others say. ”
The first time I watched it in 2016, why I can remember it so clearly, this is the benefit of writing a short review on Douban.
This is a warm film for all ages. I flip it out every two years, sometimes it's touching, sometimes it feels very warm.
Heidi, who lost her parents at an early age, was raised by her aunt and sent to the Alps by her aunt at the age of 5 to be cared for by her grandfather.
Grandpa was a strange and stubborn old man in the eyes of the villagers, but after we saw Grandpa and Heidi's life for a while, the cold Grandpa was melted by the warm Heidi, from estrangement to intimacy to dependence on each other.
The good times did not last long, Heidi was tricked by her aunt into going to the rich lady Clara's house in the city, Clara could not walk on her legs, and had a strange personality, but Heidi's arrival made her happier and happier day by day.
But Heidi didn't like life in the city, she was sullen and always wanted to go back to her grandfather's house in the Alps.
And our little Heidi belongs to the Alps, to the forests, to meadows and streams, and only there can she be spiritually free and can run in the wind!
I have to say that the Alpine scenery is really beautiful and pleasant!
Sometimes we are too complicated, too screwed, look at more beautiful things, even if it is a fairy tale, it will heal you at some moment. That's the beauty of healing movies!
In the hot summer, I still want to see more beautiful and warm movies.
Want to go to Switzerland, want to go to the Alps!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="117" >️ 3⃣Blanca and the Guitarist</h1>
Movie: Blanca and the Guitarist
Director: Hiroki Hasei
Starring: Sidle Gabertero, Peter Mirari
"Blanca and the Man Who Plays the Guitar" was filmed in the Philippines, directed by Hiroki Haseii, a Japanese, and yes, it is a wonderful combination.
A little girl who steals for a living sees the news that a celebrity adopts a child, so she starts saving money to buy herself a mother.
On the way, they met grandpa, a street artist who played guitar, so the two began to travel together.
The orange skirt, the beautiful singing voice and the beautiful guitar sound are the memories of this movie.
"Blue is the color of the sea and the sky, and orange is the color of the heart, and it is also the color of the sunset." Dialogue from a blind man.
In 2019, we bought a ticket on AirAsia for 2020 with the intention of going to the Philippines, and the pandemic in early 2020 disrupted our plans.
If you want to go out and walk, you just want to see a different street scene and a different life.
However, without going out, we can also see all kinds of different street scenes and different classes of life from the movie.
Movies are life!
Like this song in the movie, the little girl sings really well, may you also come to listen to it?
There is a cottage on the side of the road
A hut made of cardboard and rubbish
When the moon wept, the sky rained
The hut was slowly washed away
But if we are brave
The house will float
It's like a ship in a rainbow sea
The fish will join us on our journey
Every splash of water is a dream to be realized
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="123" >️ 4⃣"Little Forest" summer and autumn</h1>
Movie: "Little Forest" summer and autumn
Director: Junichi Mori
Release date: 2014
Starring: Ai Hashimoto
One house, one field, one person food, the desirable rural pastoral life!
"Little Forest" summer and autumn chapter, I think every summer can at least taste it! Watching this movie in the hot and unbearable summer is undoubtedly relaxed and pleasant. It's like coming back from a hot day and eating half an iced watermelon, cool and thirsty.
The young Ichiko returned to the mountains and became a girl living alone, going down to the field alone to farm. In the summer, I drink my own cold rice wine and eat my own bread in the morning with my own jam. Harvest the following year's rations in autumn.
The attraction is not only the food and beauty, but also the simple and self-disciplined lifestyle of Komori.
Ichiko can cut his own rice alone, make a variety of chocolate sauce, jam, canned tomatoes, and make Worcestershire soy sauce. She would pick wild walnuts that had fallen from trees, treat them and hang them on the door so that they could be kept for years, and she would go to the mountain stream to find wild vegetables and come back to cut them into diced bibimbap to eat.
I like this way of reducing materialism, returning to basics, and living seriously.
Living in a corner of the city, eating fast food delivered by takeaway, watching "Little Forest", what kind of feeling will we have?
Utopia or not want to work hard, look at the comfortable picture, alleviate the anxiety of the inner volume!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="128" >️ 5⃣"Bread of Happiness"</h1>
Movie: Bread of Happiness
Director: Yukiko Mishima
Release date: 2012
Starring: Hiroshi Oizumi, Tomoyo Harada
And like people, in the favorite place, live a favorite life!
Tired of the rush and busy life of the metropolis, Rie and Mizumi flee Tokyo, settling on a hill adjacent to a lake in Tsukiura, Hokkaido.
The Mizumi couple opened a café called mani bread here, where the man was responsible for making bread and the hostess was responsible for making coffee and cooking various dishes.
Whether it is bread or cooking, in the process of making it, it is very appetizing.
And the super healing scenery of Hokkaido can be said to be the place where this film adds points, so that whether there is a plot seems to be less important.
There is a slow life in the movie that makes us yearn for, because the weather is hot, and we always want to watch this type of movie.
When Li Hui eats bread, she always likes to break the bread in half, and she and The Water Hook each have half, and like her action.
Tired of city life and always want to escape to a quiet place. In fact, whether it is in Tokyo or Tsukiura, there will be troubles everywhere. The big cities have the troubles of the big cities, and the countryside has the troubles of the countryside. We have troubles in reality, and the ideal country in movies also has its troubles.
After reading it, I actually wanted to eat bread and make my own bread!
Write at the end
Due to the epidemic in Nanjing, the company let us work from home today, so I have begun to lie flat at home.
The more this time comes, the more I want to go back to the countryside and live a pastoral life! Planting rice should be unlikely, but I want to contract a fish pond, there is nothing to do with my husband to go fishing, plant some lotus flowers and diamond horns in the summer, clean up the fish pond once a year in the winter, give it to neighbors, relatives and friends, and marinate salted fish more.
Well, it seems good to make a salted fish!
