Hello friends of Zhihu, I am actor Zhu Yilong. The “Mo Sanmei” I played in the movie “Life Events” is a funeral director. This is a relatively special profession that is less known to the general public. As shown in the film, many people have prejudices against this kind of profession, including myself. Before touching this subject, it would be taboo to mention death thing.
Before the filming started, I went to the field to collect stories and experience life, and found that the funeral industry is not as cold as everyone thinks, but a very warm profession. They serve the profession of farewell, give the deceased dignity when they leave, and bring comfort and strength to the living. This is the professional background of the undertaker as I understand it.
In “Life Events”, the third brother’s understanding of this profession has also experienced a period of growth. From being contemptuous and incomprehensible of the funeral industry at the beginning, and being full of business experience, to truly understanding and awe of this profession later on, fighting side by side with the “Four in Heaven”, bringing dignity and comfort to more people.
In my opinion, the movie “Life Events” is not only about how to face death, but also to tell everyone to live well. In the movie, although the “man who planted stars” is a dream created by the third brother for Xiaowen, everything he does is to make the living cherish the present and live a better life in the future. If possible, I hope This dream can warm everyone.
There is a line in the movie that goes like this: “There is nothing important in life except death.”
The stories presented in the film are also the epitome of ordinary people’s daily life in reality, the fireworks in the market, the ups and downs of life. I hope everyone can gain a little warmth from the movie. The people you love never really leave. They will turn into stars and protect you forever.
Finally, pay tribute to those who planted stars.
