The actress's performance is admirable, she wears an innocent expression, as if she is facing the world with the mentality of a child. She readily accepts everything in the world is good, and she doesn't care about the situation. Just like a sponge, it can absorb any water just to be full.
In the second half of the movie, the heroine's face became very old. Apart from the disease, the sudden death of the boxer she loved seemed to take away her youth, and her appearance changed overnight. In the end, she died alone, calling out the name of her deceased daughter incessantly. I can't watch the movie anymore. The screenwriter really brought the sadness to the extreme, and I felt a kind of pain in my heart.
The reality is: her boxer died suddenly, but her search for love didn't stop, and she ended up marrying the 25-year-old musician who was in the car accident with her in the movie, so when she died, she didn't. Not alone. After her death, she was transported back to Paris for a state funeral. What her friends said about her was that she couldn't be alone for five minutes. Her little son-in-law still misses him to this day. And the affair with the boxer, which was so much exaggerated in the movie, was called a romance a little longer than her other romances in reality.
