How do I express it? After watching it, I can't calm down for a long time. My emotions are completely affected by the characters, and my heart is moved and excited.
The first time the two met, Mary watched Lois rush to the seaside, standing side by side looking at the sea, observing and testing each other alternately. Then, when Mary climbed the stairs to observe and draft Lois' ear details, she said in her heart that she couldn't turn her eyes away. Lois's eyes were even more lovely when she was standing at the door to borrow a book. The slow and meticulous rhythm made people feel I want to follow the camera to get to know these two lovely women.
Then, playing the piano, Mary told Lois the outside world in her own way, paving the way for the symphony watching at the end. At this moment, the eyes of the two of them flowed. There was curiosity, kindness, tenderness, appreciation, and so much in their eyes. Lois's smiling mouth stared at Mary tenderly and felt different emotions fermenting.
When Mary revealed that she was a painter, the eye contact was even more unscrupulous after being honest with each other. Lois was sitting there and being painted, the two of them were watching from a distance, telling each other that it was wonderful to see each other in their eyes. It can be regarded as an open and honest little boy confession
There are many indulgent moments like this, and I am afraid that there will be too many spoilers and I will be struck by lightning.
The first climax was undoubtedly the humming of the crowd around the bonfire. The two stared affectionately across the bonfire. This kind of confession of love was so unique that it didn’t require any words. The eyes directly hit people’s hearts. Lois looked at the burning robe indifferently. Being knocked down by the firefighting team and holding hands is another day of kissing.
As a painter, Marie had to observe Lois carefully, so that she could paint without her knowledge, and Lois's initial observation was mostly curious. She envied this companion with free ideas, so that they were always in each other's eyes and each other. Observing, exploring each other, understanding each other, admiring each other, falling in love with each other. Those moments accompanied by the ups and downs of the chest, the moving eyes, the erotic play, and the delicate and outrageous progress.
The moment when we parted was accompanied by the dark moment when the door closed. My mood also fell to the bottom, and the ending climaxed one after another. Mary looked alone at Lois, who was close at hand, and took the audience to reminisce the scorching heat of love.
Record the whole process of crying:
Tears welled up in my eyes on the night we parted, until Mary finally saw Lois holding her book open to the corner of page 28 in the painting, she couldn't help but burst into tears. Appreciating the symphony makes people just want to cry silently with Lois. This kind of highlight is so deeply engraved in the heart that it is really shocking. The Blu-ray disc must be bought and treasured.
Thanks again to director Celine and Adela Nomi for their perfect presentation. The soundtrack is also very good. There is not a single extra shot. I also cherish it.
