When everything melts, death is on the other side

I cried. Reverence for life.

I haven't seen this kind of work for a long, long time. I think I've seen almost all of these films. Fortunately, after so many years, I didn't miss it because I had the opportunity to learn and comprehend it. I am very grateful that I met at this stage of my life. I am grateful that I can tell that this is not only a story, not a religion, but the self-will before everything decays and dissolves, some sentient beings that have never been seen before. It is impossible to penetrate, but at least I can understand a little of its beauty.

This is the movie. Even if we don't talk about the unresolved consciousness, the script, editing, expression, and the time and space of dreams and reality are intertwined, all of which are shocking. The suspense even lasted until the last ten minutes. Thinking of "Mulholland Drive", which is also a classic drive, it can also become a classic case of pulling films, but unfortunately there is no so-called "award" and "respected by film critics", many people will be puzzled and do not want to bother to understand. , maybe even more ruthlessly attack it. Naomi Watts, the actress she has always loved, is still so beautiful, from her eyes to her limbs, she is unpretentious and natural. There was peace in her eyes.

The world is illusory. If this is a dream, the whole world is in a dream. Even if we don't see the wind, we can see the idea of ​​the wind. Even if you are afraid, even if everything is falling apart, hearing nothing, knowing nothing, seeing nothing, leaving your body, keep looking at your heart.
