The Dilemma of Leaping Longevity

Hilton 2021-12-09 08:01:23

The theme is immortality.
As far as women are concerned, both Helen and Madeleine chose to take elixir for immortality, while Ernest, as a man, chose to refuse. There are two reasons for his refusal: one is that he doesn't know how to face two lovers in the future, and the other is what to do if he doesn't like immortality in the future. It all sounds reasonable. From ancient times to the present, I don't know how many people seek to live forever, but few people have considered the second question. Because life can always be as happy as I imagined, or the desire to survive has overshadowed the rationality of future life planning. I just think about how to live, but I don't know if I will like my future life. The joy of the present may not last forever.
The enemy of the enemy is my friend, and it can be achieved between two jealous women. This shows the truth of this sentence.
Pedestrian street famous saying: Green people are always green. Madeleine snatched Ernest from Helen with beauty. Twenty years later, Helen also made Ernest fall under her pomegranate skirt again with her beauty. So, things can be done or not.
The plot of the story can only be said to be quite well-formed, without getting rid of the clichés of magic potions, and the clothes are very revealing, but they are not very good-looking, so they are not. The last is an open ending, and I hate open endings.

    I watched it on tv, only saw the second half, very happy

    The sublimation and satire in the second half were extremely successful, directly bringing out the depth of a third-rate drama that was originally intended to rob a man. The expectation of longevity and the fear of decay are shared by people, but few people think that after longevity, if I remember correctly, Qihua said that there is a similar debate. In fact, there is no need to argue, this movie is already the answer. Another point is that the people who know each other the most are also the most malicious.
