"Tell Her" is another masterpiece after "All About My Mother", which was a sensation in the international film industry and finally won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film in 2000. It won the 2002 Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and was nominated for two Oscars for Best Director and Best Screenplay, and finally won the Best Original Screenplay Award. "All About My Mother" I haven't watched yet, I will definitely look for a chance to watch it. And from this film, the Best Original Screenplay Award really deserves its name.
From the beginning of the film, we can see that in the theater, Benigno saw Marco's tears, and he wanted to talk to him, but he finally gave up the opportunity, and Marco, who was crying alone, did not notice his side. Benigno, this also laid the groundwork from the beginning, one person was willing to say to him, the other person did not know what to say.
The second time the two met was in the clinic where Benino worked. Mako sent Lydia, who was in a coma after being picked on by a bullfight, to the hospital, but since then, he didn't know what to say, and was even afraid to touch Lydia. Ya's body, and Benigno would talk to Lydia naturally every time, saying goodbye.
Whenever Marco passed by Alicia's ward, it was natural for Benino to greet him. This is how a strong friendship begins... an irreversible roller coaster ride. During their time at the clinic, the past, present, and future of these four characters all collide, dragging them into an unbelievable situation.
In fact, there are many metaphors in the film:
Benigno really loves Alicia, and looking out of his window, he can see Alicia's dance classroom, and he must have watched her silently there for many years, until Alicia is in a coma in a car accident. He actually had the opportunity to get close to her without limit, and had the opportunity to say a lot to her.
When Alicia's father was looking for nursing, the hospital recommended Benigno, he was a little hesitant because Benigno had previously Nuo went to him for a consultation, but he chose Benigno in the end. Because he didn't want to leave Alicia unattended, and Benigno was undoubtedly one of the best nurses in the hospital.
He must have noticed something, and he happened to be Benigno's psychiatrist, so he interviewed Benigno and asked him bluntly what his sexual orientation was, and Benigno said I might prefer boys. his question. (Of course, with Benigno's self-report, we know that going to the doctor's office is just a small way for Benigno to know Alicia's movements)
When Benigno told Alicia about the silent film "The Shrinking Lover" , the film freezes at the shrinking lover entering the lover's body, and the fusion of blood at the end has actually implied that Benigno and Alicia are also one.
On the other hand, Marco accidentally learned the truth that Lydia wanted to tell him but couldn't tell him, and he decided to leave far away in grief. During this period, everything changed strangely. A woman who was loved finally miraculously woke up because of the birth of a new life; a woman who left her love finally died lonely.
Acelia miraculously awoke because of the new life in her body, and Benigno, who was in prison, didn't know anything about it. In fact, when Mako asked about Lydia's condition, a metaphor was inserted naturally. The doctor showed Mako an example of a woman who once woke up. You ask me what this is. Prove that there are also people who wake up this day.
Mako, who learned that Benigno was in prison, rushed back in a hurry. While visiting Benigno, he also knew the truth of Alicia's awakening, but he hadn't had time to tell Benigno. The lawyer told Benigno while hiding the truth. Benigno Alicia is dead.
Benigno was determined to be with Alicia. He felt that he had no regrets. He met Marco and left the house to Marco. After finishing the message to Marco, Benino resolutely left, To find the world he longed for with Alicia.
But how ironic, Alicia has woken up and walked freely in the rainy streets.
What's the problem with you?
I think, I'm just a little lonely.
In fact, after watching "Tell Her", I really have nothing to say except for being shocked. Almodovar is really a director with superb screenwriting and directing skills. In fact, I think my spoilers for the plot are really superfluous. This film is very worth watching.
PS: Once again, Chinese movies are not rated, which leads to the reality of various restrictions on the Internet. Although there is also this movie on the Internet, the so-called pornographic scenes in it are basically deleted. If you haven’t watched the original version, people will feel the same as watching "Lust and Caution" is just as puzzling as to why the protagonist is like this and why it is like that. As everyone knows, the film itself expresses it very clearly, just because the scissors are too powerful.
