      Total Eclipse--The Truth That You Leave

      I've been looking for a suitable title for this article, but I can't seem to find one that is appropriate. It was not until I heard the familiar light tone, "the truth that you leave" that day, that I felt the power of "I find it".

      Rimbaud's role is played by Leonardo. The film tells the story of the same-sex love between the poets...

      eclipse love

      I will hold you tight and never let go
      You are the sun that keeps burning my soul,
      full of love and hatred, burn everything around me to the ground and hold transparent tears in
      the ashes Your humble ashes-like love You play with your will and stay at your will The moment your figures overlap, you can't hide the blazing heat You look at the junction of the sea and the sun You say you have to leave You say everything you say You say there is no love and meaning You choose to perch...

      The beauty of this moment is frozen

      Dara used countless exclamation marks when he recommended this film to me. It is said that after watching it, I found out that the little plum who played Titanic was already disabled, not to mention the current Pirates of Dreams. Although his acting skills are good, it cannot hide the fact that the longer he grows, the more disabled he is. After watching it, it really is like this. I still remember that in the troubles of growing up, he looked like a little adult, his eyes were sharp but his...

      symbolist lace


      A relatively objective restoration of Rimbaud's life, or the life of Rimbaud in Verlaine's eyes, Leonardo showed Rimbaud's arrogance and frivolity very well, but Verlaine's actor in the film did not fully show his poetic temperament and frivolity. Talented and completely became Rimbaud's vassal.
      Among the symbolist poets, Rimbaud is an anomaly. From his behavior in life, he looks more like a speculator who has a talent for poetry but uses poetry to make a name for himself. Rimbaud's...

      vent

      I just finished watching "Total Eclipse", some parts make people laugh, some parts make people sad, there is a feeling in my heart, I want to find an outlet to release my emotions, so I wrote a paragraph without logic and ideas , so that the feelings of this moment are somehow preserved forever.
      There are three places in the film that keep me thinking about it. In the first scene, the two have a profound discussion on the subject of soul and lust. Verlaine's slightly cunning self-defense...

      found it! What? eternal. It's the sun and the sea shining together, my eternal soul watching your heart, even if the night is lonely and the day is burning - Rimbaud's "Season of Hell · Eternity" PS: He has already intertwined their souls. All "evil" stems from that childlike innocence, and the maverick madness and pureness that belongs only to...

      The downside is that Xiao Lizi and Professor Lupin cannot be accepted. . . Anyway, the acting is very moving, the "I don't know, just away", "Do you understand, I want the sun!" [Can Xiao Lizi be unable to control other accents? So irritable, listening to Rimbaud's fluent standard American accent =...

    Negative comment

    "Total Eclipse" is based on Paul Verlaine's perspective to interpret his love affair with Jean Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud. Therefore, Jean Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud in the film is also subjective because of Paul Verlaine's eyes, including a slightly vague Feeling jealous. However, since the return of Jean Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud's foot tumor, the film has been transformed into a male version of Lolita, and the beauty is straight   . ( NetEase...
