2008-01-12 City of Angels (City of Angels)
is another recommended film, once again lost in the melancholy eyes of Nicolas Cage, deeply caught in it, unable to extricate itself...
"City of Angels", remember this is also A film in my memory. Since a certain day in junior high school, I have been seeing this attractive poster in magazines constantly. I am moved by the emotional expressions of the hero and heroine. Suddenly I feel...between them, the love is deep and the love is all...
because the preconceived ideas Relationship, I once again thought the film was about the love between heroes and beauties in action movies, but this time I was wrong. The angel Seth played by Nicolas Cage and the angels are separated from the world. They have no sensory perception and do not know what is pain, what is love, what is sweet taste, and what is bitter; when they touch people's bodies , you can hear what the other party is thinking, but they don't know what the real "touch" feels like... One day, a little girl died, and Seth, who was standing in the ward, watched the doctors try their best to rescue the little girl. life, the girl's mother wept heartbroken. What does he come to do? Only he knew that he would take this girl and go to another world. The girl took his hand and asked:
"Are you god?"
"No.My name is Seths."
"Where we go?"
"Go home"
"Can mum come?"
"No"
"She won't understand. "
She will...Someday..."
That was his mission, to bring people who had gone to another world. Seth is a curious angel, he always wants to know the feeling of "touch" - What's the feeling of touch? Perhaps, it is this question that makes his love with Maggie...touch...
Maggie is a doctor, an excellent doctor. She always believed that using her own hands could save the lives of patients. It was not until the first time that a patient died on her operating table that she felt real panic and collapse. Why? Every step I made was correct, but he still died... Who the hell are we fighting? During the operation, Seth came to pick up the soul of the deceased, but was shocked by Maggie's eyes looking at him, because mortals couldn't see them, but Maggie looked into his eyes with a firm gaze... For a moment, he felt as if he was alone...
"Has anyone seen you? Case. Not me, not a dying or delirious person. Has any mortal... ever seen you? In The doctor in the hospital, she's looking at me..."
"She's not looking at you, Seth. She can't see you, no one can see you. Unless you want them to."
"If What do I want her to see?"
"Why should she see?"
"I want to help her."
Seth was deeply attracted to Maggie, and he wanted to help her, so he kept appearing in front of her, guiding Maggie to let her Find yourself again. In the process of recognizing the truth, Maggie was also attracted by Seth, the mysterious man, and fell in love with his melancholy eyes. Who is he? from where? Two people fall in love.... However, the separation between man and god has to make their love veiled. When Maggie learns that Seth is not human, she is desperate, she doesn't know what she is in love with. The distance between the two is also getting farther and farther...until Seth knows what he really wants.
Angels are messengers from God who see the world with pure eyes. Maggie felt an air of purity and rationality from Seth, and she described Seth as, "You are so beautiful." And because of this, they couldn't blend with each other. Seth has no sensory ability and can't touch his beloved Maggie, which makes him understand that it is not enough to have a spiritual connection, and the inability to touch the beloved is the real sadness...

"God has given human beings a gift, you think he Didn't you give us?"
"What gift?"
"Freedom consciousness."
Seth met the angel who descended, and he told Seth how to descend become human. And those angels who descended to earth are now living the same normal life as human beings.
"No one wants to remember the past, all those things that have been given up. You have to choose, as long as you make up your mind, you can become a mortal!"
"That's free will" Seth made a choice, and Maggie also made a choice. They didn't give up on each other, they found their true love, and Seth felt what a real "touch" was...
"When they ask me, what's your favorite thing? I'll tell them, it's you. "
The words of the angel descended to earth deeply affected Seth. When he found out that Maggie, who was in great pain, was about to leave him, he finally chose to be true to his inner longing - to become a mortal and stay with his lover Sis for the rest of his life.
When he woke up, he felt that feeling. His body was sore, his limbs were weak, and he was very hungry, but he was very happy. For the first time, he saw his own blood and color... Seeing Seth, who became a mortal, running on the road with joy, I was very happy. I could not help but shed tears of excitement, his joy deeply infected me.
Seth made a choice, and Maggie made a choice. They didn't give up on each other, they found their true love, and Seth felt what a real "touch" was...
"When they ask me, what's your favorite thing? I'll tell them, it's you. "
However, fate always loves to play tricks on the world. When the "unreachable lovers" were just beginning to enjoy life, Maggie was unfortunately killed in the wheel, and Seth hated for the first time who he was - an angel. In the past, he could face the death of others without emotion, but now he is grief-stricken... Maggie feels so sorry, Seth came here with all the hardships, and they can just live a normal life , destroying it all. But she didn't regret it, she knew it was going to be "I'm not afraid" she had to face, and she knew that Seth wouldn't regret it, she gave Seth what he wanted most, warmth, touch, hugs, and Love. Everyone dies eventually, no one can blame anyone for life and death...

I vaguely remember only one person,
everything was good and not the same at that time, it was too late to
settle
, so the
blood and flesh disappeared , but there is
only a
body, but there is no soul in the body. Live on, go on, go on and on ... " If you knew it was going to be like this, would you still come down here?" Seth said: I'd rather be able to... smell her scent... kiss her Mouth... touched her hand... not an immortality without her...in the end, Seth reminisced about what Maggie once felt and described, felt Maggie live in his body... when love Beyond life, everything can be so indifferent... Love, always in my heart...
