story takes place in the American countryside. When a pair of children were sorting out their mother's belongings, they read the letters and diaries left by their mother before her death, which described in detail the unforgettable emotions of their mother, the heroine Fasika, decades ago. The experience also revealed the hidden inner entanglements of Fasika for many years.
The camera turned back to decades ago. Fascia was an ordinary country housewife. Like other housewives, she had a loving husband and a pair of 16- or 17-year-old children. She lived in such a seemingly happy family. As peaceful and gentle as this beautiful countryside. On this day, the husband and children were going out for a four-day trip to the California market, and soon after they left, they met the hero and heroine of all the stories of the film. Robert is a photographer for National Geographic magazine, who is romantic by nature, because his work travels to every fascinating place. And this time to take pictures of Madison Bridge, he was destined to meet Fascia, who happily accompanied him to the covered bridge. During the conversation, they developed a good feeling, and a subtle feeling began to sprout, so she invited him to stay for dinner, and they fell in love with each other for the next four days, but it was only in these short days. The choice of responsibility is always around them.
about emotions
The emotion is a bit like the heartwarming love poem that Jack and Ruth perform in just a few days on Titanic, but the difference is this one written by Meryl Streep and Eastwood. Twilight Love Song is twice as old as these young people. Such an arrangement is destined to not be a pure love story, but also because Fasika in the story is a married woman, destined to be bound by family and responsibilities. Perhaps we are familiar with the story of extramarital affairs with Catherine's desperate pursuit of love in "The English Patient". Even if we pity Emma's infatuation with such arrogance, we can't see the happy ending. However, the generation of emotions between Fascia and Robert is more subtle. Fascia is a representative of women who have been imprisoned in traditional family concepts for a long time. They are content with the status quo on the surface, but their hearts are different between the current life and the fantasy life of Girls’ Generation. unwilling. It's not just that her first impression when she describes her husband is clean, so Robert's presence didn't just stir up ripples in Faseca's heart. Robert's rich life experiences contrasted with her ordinary life circumstances, and she became fascinated by this unexpected guest who suddenly broke into her life. So she looked at her body that had passed away in the mirror, drove in the middle of the night and left a note of invitation on the covered bridge, and was at a loss to choose a new dress she liked in the store. A traditional woman's psychological process of emotional invasion outside of marriage. So they met again on the covered bridge, and the brief time together was full of indescribable joy for both parties.
About the family
So seeing the flood of love will wash away the moral embankment, since ancient times, men and women in love have lost their senses, which is not derogatory at all. So it's not hard to imagine Fasija's inner struggle when Robert said "come with me" more than once. However, love outside of marriage is destined to be unblessed and even more disallowed by traditional moral values. In fact, I have also become cautious about the use of the word "love" when describing extramarital affairs, which comes from my personal traditional values. Once the freedom of love touches the constraints of morality, it will eclipse all the beautiful poems. Even romantic Americans have to handle extramarital affairs with care. So we see the last dinner table conversation between Fascia and Robert in the film, and Robert wants Fascia and himself to fly away. At this moment, Fasika has to wake up from the swirl of beautiful love and start to think that once she follows love, it will have an irreversible impact on her husband and his children. Because love is a matter of two people, and once marriage is involved, it is the union of two families, and any action will affect the two families. This is what my sister who is about to enter the marriage hall told me. In the film, a pair of sons and daughters who have already married decades later also have their own different situations about the family and the issue of love. In the process of looking at the mother's diary, the initial resentment towards the mother's actions gradually turned into understanding and pity. Now, as children and more as parents, they have a deeper understanding of family and responsibilities, and they have become relieved of the burden of family responsibility.
Therefore, heavy family responsibilities and elegant romantic love are even more difficult choices for Fascia.
About the answer
After a long absence, in a rainy day. Fasija saw Robert standing on the street in heavy rain. The rain washed away Robert's self-confidence, leaving nothing but the bottomless affection in his eyes. All of a sudden, Fasika couldn't bear the sadness anymore, it was about her choosing the right one or not. At this moment, she was just a woman who couldn't bear the end of a beautiful love. And the choice between love and family made her even more at a loss. All she could do was release the hand that was holding the car door tightly, and kept thinking "I can't go" in her heart. Seeing this, I think every audience will be moved by it, and this is exactly the answer given to us by "Long Dreams of the Covered Bridge". There is no right or wrong in love itself, and more can only sigh the fate of fooling people.
