Let me talk about spoilers
first. I wrote a film review for the first time. Don’t beat me
. The relationship between them is probably such a thing
. , Ruth took the lead in opening the door to Lily's new world, and Ai Ji followed, and the two loved each other very much. Brother Bi Di doesn't like Ruth, and the two of them have little rivalry, so Ai Ji is not a substitute for Bi Di in the film.
For the film, because of the film’s age, the director wanted to deal with it as a friendship (that era was equivalent to the current state of z, and basically everything was banned). The problem is that the original work of a is too powerful, the two actors are too matched, I am too dirty (mistake), what the director tried to cover up but couldn’t bear the loneliness can always reveal something from the gap, as if you were in a bed Fart a fart, accidentally turn over and leak the smell.
But maybe the director just wants the audience to guess?
The previous words are not important, what is important is where the feelings are expressed, and what is the relationship between the two people.
1. At the beginning of the movie, Bi Di and Ruth liked each other. In fact, Bi Di and Ai Ji also liked each other (don't think about the kind of family relationship). How do you say this? On the one hand, when I was a child, Ai Ji listened to Bi Di very much, and she was in a state of admiring Bi Di. On the other hand, the old lady also said that I was also one of the girls who liked Bi Di, and The old lady is Ai Ji.
The death of Bi Di is a kind of growth for Ai Ji. There is a situation that if you like a person, but when the person is absent for a long time, you will become more and more like him, you will turn part of yourself into him, to fill the part of yourself that is empty because of him. (It's really a big turn).
After Bi Di died, Ai Ji had the shadow of Bi Di, as well as the body of Ai Ji. If Ai Ji is red and the ground is blue, then Ai Ji is a mixture of two colors of purple. It's a completely different person.
Ruth likes blue, and the shadow of blue is reflected in Ai Ji’s body. Ruth will like it more or less, but Ai Ji is not Compassionate. Ruth likes Ai Ji and Bi Di. different. 2. Letter from Ruth to Ai Ji: I will go wherever you go, and I will live wherever you live. Your people are my people.
…………I
feel that love is about to be sprayed out of the paper…
It is really far-fetched to understand this letter as friendship. What can express that I am with you should be love, and friendship should be the feeling of walking with you. Alright...Although there is only one word difference between being with you and walking with you, they are two kinds of feelings. Going with you basically means companionship. Being with you can mean more, so please experience it yourself. Because the original book is love here, the movie said that it is friendship is simply forced to break.
"Your people are my people." 3. When the judge asked Ruth why she was running away with Ai Ji, Ruth hesitated for 20 seconds (I really counted).
This 20-second hesitation firstly includes whether she should talk about domestic violence. She must have considered this matter before. It may be because of the age, but 20 seconds is more than enough; secondly, it is possible that she is true. Ai Ji (the kind of love)
, but it was a crime at the time, so I couldn’t say it. After hesitating for a long time, my eyes were red (Poison Mom played really well), and finally said it in a euphemistic way: She is my best friend and I love her.
Of course, this does not rule out that it is really friendship, but if it is friendship, there is no need to hesitate for such a long time. The film has greatly reduced the content of the original work. Here, for reasons acceptable to the judge, it is not just an expression. A simple feeling. 3. When Ruth was about to die, tell Ai Ji that if someone can beat you in a card game, you should marry him. Ruth probably meant that when I died, no one could understand you and take care of you. You should find a smart person who can see through your tricks to take care of you.
Why did Ruth know her for so many years and why did she say this in the end? Because this is a kind of possessiveness, it basically only appears in love. If you are a friend, you will very much hope that you will find happiness sooner rather than possessive.
4. The old lady (Aige)'s room is basically a group photo with Ruth, including the last letter to Ruth: I will love you forever. Why (before Ruth's death) Ai Ji never saw a man? Ruth was more or less in her heart. To sum up, the relationship between Ruth and Ai Ji is definitely more than friendship, but whether it is ambiguous or love depends on what the audience thinks, because love between women is by no means as obvious as between men and women. If you have to compare with heterosexuality, the relationship between women has to be magnified.
And I think this is a true love.
