Let flowers accompany your pillow

The movie I've been looking forward to for a long time, and it didn't disappoint me.

As the male protagonist said, I watched a movie when I was a child and forgot the content, but I couldn't forget the emotion at that time and the tears when I recounted the difficult situation. The same is true of this movie. Maybe I will forget the details in the future, but I will not forget the helplessness, despair and tears after watching it.

Love each other is a beautiful word. In the details at the beginning of the film, there is a tacit understanding between the two people everywhere. It is not easy to maintain a love until old age. But no amount of deep love can resist aging and sickness. I remember watching Australian writer Coetzee's work "Slow Man" before. Although the male protagonist is old but proud, he can't take care of himself due to a car accident. Although I forgot the end of the book, I still remember a small detail: the male protagonist fell to the ground, lying in his own excrement, and the female nurse who heard the sound and was admired by the male protagonist witnessed this scene. At that time, the male protagonist was ashamed of his incompetence and helplessness. Although it has been a few years, I, as a reader, are still unforgettable.

An and the male protagonist in "Slow Man" are quite similar. In fact, facing such people, it may be the least trick. They know themselves too well, know each other too well, know the pain of life too well, see too well, and think too much for each other. When faced with the inevitable and imminent end of life, their attitude is so resolute that they would rather face death than sit back and let themselves become sick and aging fish. However, George was reluctant to give up, and she had to support George.

This is the saddest thing. Even death is so difficult. Until he was unable to defend his own life and could not control his own death, he was tortured so much by the pain that even George couldn't bear the pain of watching his lover, George chose to rescue, although the process was so heart-wrenching. When I saw George sitting back in the chair after covering the pillow, I didn't know whether it was his tears or snot dripping from the camera, and my heart was torn to shreds.

It's a pity that love can't resist time, can't resist aging, can't stop sickness. But I am willing to replace it with a flower that is in full bloom, and let it accompany you to remember our lifetime together, just like my agreement with my mother, An, maybe, you will do the same thing for me, right? ?
