"Paris, Texas"--Lonely Existence

My soul is so far away from me, yet my existence is so real.Paris, Texas actually expresses the same thing as the pianist at sea, that is, the absurdity of existence and the sense of loneliness that has no place and no solution. It seems that the essence of human beings is loneliness, and no one can understand why. The difference is that in 1900, he chose to stay. On the boat, to store his loneliness in the little space where he was born and not let it continue to expand, and Travis' way of grasping existence is to set a destination that does not exist so that he can go on endlessly Going down, using the whole world to dissolve the endless sense of absurdity, is equivalent to exiling yourself in a deserted place, and you can feel as if only your own soul can be felt.

This huge sense of loneliness spreads to the whole world and even overflows. The curtain turns into a silent emotion and enters the audience's mind. For me, the most important thing about a movie is not the narrative or the plot, but its temperament, its light and shadow composition. I have no intention of paying attention to its details and the direction of the story. I just immerse myself in its atmosphere, when all the images become blurred. A wisp of poetry floated toward me, and that was the moment of the movie, and obviously the moment of Paris, Texas.

    9.2; A building becomes an amorphous, ever-splitting, fluid thing, it (or refers to a family or even a more generalized settlement) cannot be a place to give stability, only the ground beneath the feet can provide the original power

    The heroine is beautiful, but the man's behavior is incomprehensible
