"Revolutionary Road" in the same period, I didn't feel anything after watching it. The love for Titanic at that time was only because of the yearning for vigorous love. <<The Reader>> After watching one-third of the film, I decided to write a review, and countless titles flashed in my mind. . "If you don't love me, let me go" "I love you, it has nothing to do with you". . . After all, it is still vulgar to think of love. The relationship between Hannah and the little boy, the film did not take the usual path at the beginning, which made the audience feast for the eyes, and the private passion could only end quietly in a low-key manner. The third person's speech will always point directly to the topic in one sentence: what is behind the maintenance of social order? Morality? no. is the law.
So when I left you, when I was still handsome, I didn't even let you see my back.
Constant flashbacks, interspersed with various memories, a montage of parallel narratives. The little boy decided to open his heart to accept the girls of the same age around him, just because of the phrase "You must go back to your friends"... always watching the first half of the film with a confused attitude. Strange woman, the agreement before sex is to let the boy read a novel to her. . Bathed in the same pool, rubbed the boy's back like a mother, carefully taught the boy various skills during sex, whispered in his ear: Slowly, slowly... I remember Zhang Ailing's words: "The way to a woman's heart" Through the vagina." But on Hannah, I never saw love in the first hour of the film. Her heart has always been on herself, knowing what she needs, knowing the equivalent exchange, then getting it, and finally giving up. Later, when the woman went to prison, the boy kept sending tapes to read to her. Later, after Hannah's death, the boy followed his will to visit another Jewish woman whose fate was changed by Hannah. The boy said to her: I am at 16 I met her at the age of 19, although our relationship only lasted for one summer, but. . .
but? But what?
Ethics and morals, when the boy sees Hannah being wronged and intends to explain to his mentor the secrets "enough to change the outcome of the trial". . The self-protection mentality makes him succumb to the moral concept of the real society. law? When Hannah was forced by the judge, she finally threw a cold sentence: If it were you, what would you do? (What would you have done?), the audience was silent, the judge's eyes wandered around, and he took a pen to record something uneasy. Surrounded by shock. An uproar. justice? It never stands on one side.
There are still moving places, because of love.
When the boy was hesitant to be influenced by girls of the same age, the sentence "I promise someone" left the swimming pool and went straight to Hannah's house. At that moment, I saw love. Tears welled up in the corner of the boy's eyes as he listened to the trial as a bystander. The trembling hands that opened the cardboard box when Hannah received the tape for the first time after being imprisoned, stared silently at the paper when the boy first received Hannah's neatly written two sentences in childlike handwriting. . .
The color of pessimism, the environment we live in is too oppressive, we must live by the rules, fall in love steadfastly, follow the national family planning, and teach the next generation well. So, at the end of that summer, Hannah left, and the boy came home in frustration, his father's "I think we all knew you'd come back to us eventually." You are all very clear, only I can't see this illusion.
An hour later, the film enters a key point. The boy who is wandering about love and morals is stripped away little by little. We see a naked helpless heart. Under the heavy pressure, there is only submission.
I'll be nice to you, all I can do is keep reading to you, from when I was 16, until 20 years later. . This is the only thing I can do.
That child was mistaken by me as the illegitimate daughter of Hannah and the little boy from the first appearance. The screenwriter's suspense was very good, and at the end, the man himself said to his daughter, "That year, I was 16. I was sick when I met her, and she saved me." It turned out not to be, it turned out that he had lost two women. . I gave you my heart and my body to her, but in the end my heart was unwilling to be wronged, so I could only bear her again. . You have drawn a heavy track in my life, which will never be erased. Whose life did I appear in and who did I hurt? What time can forget is probably just some irrelevant things, just like you said to me: You don't matter enough to upset me. What is important enough and cared about can never be forgotten. That's why there will be entanglements, and that's why it's getting deeper and deeper, embedded in my flesh through my skin, straight to the depths of my heart. .
A week before Hannah was about to be released from prison, the two met again after 20 years. The shriveled hands that were stretched out were only slightly stroked. Your love is not available. It turned out that I have always loved you so deeply. Before I knew it, you became all my hope.
"What is your relationship?" The answer to the question is ultimately asked by a third person, two-thirds of the way through the film, the Jewish woman being visited. "We had a relationship when I was 16..." Still no clear answer, couple? abnormal. relatives? That's for self-deception.
Hannah, who worked hard to learn to read in order to write letters to the boy, just wanted to express her gratitude and love in her heart. "Are you married?" Thinking of the phrase, "I love each other with my second love, and I forget my love in the rivers and lakes", when my friend wrote this sentence in the diary, I commented on the following: This is happier. . It's not just women who love some people and marry others all the time. So do men. So, I love you, but can't be with you. Eleven thousand reasons boil down to only one: inappropriate.
Then in our lifetime, let's meet by narrow roads. Say goodbye to each other and continue on the road. No more nostalgia, turn around and look at your back, only in a certain place in my heart, leave a place for you, only yours. . . Then, you don't need to know your birth, old age, sickness and death, or any news about you, just at a certain time of day, when you think about it again, the corners of your mouth can rise slightly, that's it. enough.
My favorite romantic movie, a good movie rarely seen in half a year. Apart from the skilled film language and the meticulous story structure, what attracts me is only love. . .
Finally add the words after "but": "I met her when I was 16 years old. Although our relationship only lasted for one summer, but we have always loved each other"
Very satisfied, on a sunny afternoon, alone , a piece.
