Such tranquility is unforgettable

The time for Beginners in the afternoon session was just right. In the smallest hall of MK2, I found the most comfortable seat to sit in the crowd and ate the brownie chocolate that Elisa left me. Ewan McGregor's narration is all short sentences, read slowly and comfortably. Originally, Mélanie Laurent, who had a rough voice, did not speak in the first half of the play, and the delicate facial features were enough for the play. Later, when he spoke English with a lovely French accent, the wording was simple and the voice was beautiful. Although the camera movement of the film is very casual and not neat, the overall tone is just right, giving people a warm feeling - as if hugging Tanja: both of us are usually talkative, but because Francesca Because of the existence of the world and had to communicate only with the eyes and the body, that kind of tranquility is unforgettable. Probably after experiencing Colin's lazy and calm way of speaking in La femis for the past two days, I seem to think that if I can talk like this, slow down the speed, say precise words, polite words, bold words, the communication effect is probably can be very different. This is a very cute film in form, and the content is discussed a lot. I can't find any clues at once, but I want to praise the director for the way he used pictures, photos, subtitles, and music.

There are many ways to express grief. Oliver's self-talk and fear of feeling alienated are incarnate in Ewan McGregor's sad eyes. Christopher Plummer's performance is very hierarchical, joy and sorrow are intertwined, so nostalgic for life. The cautiousness and emotions of the father-son relationship are moving. Except for the masquerade scene, there is a lack of chemistry between Mélanie Laurent and McGregor.

Maybe everyone wants to meet "tiger", but in the end there is only "giraffe". The hopelessness of love and eternity may just be because I haven't met the tiger.
