趕在 2025 的最後一天，看 #大濛 。

很好看的故事，沒有因為背負著什麼而犧牲小人物的視角與個性。感情甚篤的兄妹，妹妹為了領取被槍斃兄長的屍首，從嘉義到台北。

「我們什麼都沒有，只能勇敢。」

未成年的女孩一頭闖入戰後的台北，牽扯出一片時代的人物風景—貧困裡，小詐小惡、綁騙誘拐，為了生存的各色語言和個性；那些憐憫和善良因為不教條不僵固，更顯可貴；而在特權和權勢裡，往往藏有更深的陰暗和迂腐，也才是時代裡真正悲劇之所在。

我們都是小女孩，在歷史茫茫的迷霧中，不知前方；阿月即便也窮，但哥哥教她的正直，深深烙印在年輕的善良裡。

她不太會表達，但別人對她的好與壞，她用行動、用心去回應。

哥哥阿雲所說的故事，水雲雨霧的循環，是人生的選擇；而終究無法抉擇的，是在歷史中要成為怎樣的風景？小人物鑲嵌在時代裡，只能有傻氣的理想主義，或成為一片風景的釋然（莫可奈何？）⋯。

喜歡導演的運鏡和配樂，近距離的特寫或微觀，很舞台劇也很溫柔；音樂與音效完全是成就故事的指引，不可或缺。⋯
