tell you <speak to her>

Spanish film "Tell her", sentimental, quiet, soothing, melancholy.

When I was watching the movie, my heart was heavy, but I didn't cry, but when I told you about it, I kept crying from the beginning. Why are you crying? Because of sharing with you.

I have always been very skeptical of my own narrative ability, because the level of narrative writing I wrote since I was a child is very average, and I usually don't like to say a lot of narrative things such as Lajiachu to others, except for good friends and family of course. However, when I spent more than an hour on the phone telling you about the content, plot and feelings of the entire film, I actually found that I still have the ability to tell a story, it just depends on whether I pay attention and whether the person I share with me is. Who.

As the male protagonist in the film explained, the reason why you cry when watching a flamingo opera is because you don't have your favorite people to share with you when you are moved. Why do I cry when I tell a film, and it may sound cumbersome, wordy, and too selfish to others? It's because I'm talking to you. I am moved not because of the video, but because you are listening carefully, I am sharing it with you, and I feel happy.

The content of "Tell Her" no longer wants to be described in words, because it is too tiring to talk about the rich layers and profound connotations. The key is that it has already been shared with the favorite, so it is redundant to narrate it. However, I still strongly recommend such an excellent film. The director of the Spanish genius Almodovar, I believe that those who have seen his famous work "All About My Mother" must know his skills and style. And such a story about friendship, love, loneliness, survival and conversation, coupled with the contagious background music with Spanish style, will surely make you feel the beauty of loneliness and anxiety in a dream.

It should be said that the judges of the Oscars are not blind. They awarded the 2002 Best Foreign Language Film Award to "Tell Her", which made Zhang Yimou's "Hero" fail. Therefore, it is said that movies are high-level art, and pay attention to the soul, not to fool foreigners by flying a sword through the leaves a few times. Sadly though, I suspect that the version I watched had a lot of notable footage cut out, so if you're going to buy a disc, be sure to pick the next version.
