When I saw Chongqing Forest before, I thought it was very stylish, especially photography, I thought it was very individual. Rewatching it now, there is no sense of surprise and niche in the past.
The film is very rough, in another word it can be called very textured. The chase scene in Chungking Mansions is said to have been filmed after being surrounded and blocked by the security of the building. Is helpless, but also a bold experiment.
Chongqing Forest is like a movie sketch or a romantic essay, and the childishness and talent of the young Wong Kar-wai are looming. There is no profound content and thinking, but more of a formal manifestation, as well as Wong Kar-wai's view of love when he was young. From the attitudes of the two male protagonists towards lovelorn, one can see how much Wong Kar-wai's understanding of love was when he was young.
Love has a shelf life and will expire. Both men and women in love love freshness and will change all kinds of tastes. People who have broken up will be neurotic, afraid to admit to breaking up, have illusions about reconciliation, and chat with soap towel toys.
But young love is proactive, childish, dreamy and romantic, with infinite possibilities and infinite hopes. Many people are just a transit point, not an end point, which will make people sad, sad and confused, but it may be the starting point of another relationship, full of hope and romance.
The first paragraph is a story about deadlines. From April 28 to May 1, He Zhiwu gave himself a one-month deadline to convince him that his love had expired. Collecting 30 cans of canned pineapples that expired on May 1 and eating them all at the end is a tribute to how childish, dreamy and romantic love is.
There is also a time limit for what the mysterious female killer has to do, but it is a matter of life and death, which is more realistic, chaotic and cruel. And the attitude of the two people to the relationship is completely different. One represents youth and the other represents so-called maturity.
When you are young, even if you know that people will change and love will expire, you will keep looking forward, as if the days are still long and you can meet many, many people. Even if you are hurt, you can get out of the drunkenness and get to know and like new people with confidence. When I was young, I liked freshness, and I was just as fresh myself.
"Actually, knowing a person doesn't mean anything, and understanding will change. Today he likes pineapples, and tomorrow he can like other things." After the so-called mature, he will no longer climb mountains, and he will no longer believe in a person's loyalty and loyalty. Commitment, no longer care about whether love has a shelf life, but no longer believe in love, no longer bravely chase.
"I don't know when it started, I became a very careful person. Every time I wear a raincoat, I wear sunglasses. You never know when it will rain and when the sun will come out." When we are mature, we are rigorous and careful, and we are a layer of shell for the outside world when we are mature.
"If memory is also a can, I hope this can will not expire. If I have to add a day, I hope it is 10,000 years." When we were young, we had hopes, dreams and hope, and the minimum "year" is It is ten thousand years. Unrealistic, yet so beautiful.
Maturity makes us wear a thick shell, there is no softness but hardness, and under the shell is wrapped cowardice, suspicious and pessimistic. On the contrary, when we are young, we are not only soft and fresh, but we are always brave, confident and optimistic about love.
In the hotel, He Zhiwu naively thought that the female killer was really just sleeping. All night, I can only foolishly watch TV and eat chef's salad. But it is precisely because of this innocence that perhaps the female killer took off her yellow hair and returned to a hopeful life.
The second paragraph is a story about freshness. 663 gave his girlfriend fresh fish and chips, but his girlfriend gave him a fresh boyfriend. "There are so many choices for late-night snacks, not to mention boyfriends?" When we were young, we loved to climb mountains and try new people and new things. When I looked back, I realized that what was lost was the person on the mountain side that should be grasped the most.
"Small things, if she doesn't change her taste, how can she know that you are the real thing!" 663's girlfriend tried to return to the mountain after trying it out. But life is sometimes fair, and what is thrown away is sometimes not owned. No one will be your transfer station for the rest of your life. You fly away, and this airport will forever ban you from flying.
"That afternoon, I had a dream. It seemed that I went to his house. When I left, I thought I would wake up. Who knows, some dreams will never wake up." Love makes people sleepwalk, A Fei sleepwalks in 663's house in a psychedelic way, so that she herself can't believe this is the truth. She looked for his details, she cleaned his room, changed fresh soap towel toys, everything about him occupied her heart, she was immersed in the fantasy of love and dream.
"I know his girlfriend doesn't like this song, because this record was left here when I was sleepwalking a few days ago. I started to wonder if sleepwalking is contagious!" "That afternoon, the girl was in my She fell asleep at home. Originally I wanted to wake her up, but I don't know why I didn't." The two sleepwalked together and slept together until dusk. This is what love should look like, hazy and simple and dreamy.
A Fei gave 663 a ticket, and the boarding time was one year later. When we were young, we were so confident, brave, and free. Facing the love we were about to have, we didn't care about waiting or whether the other party was still on the plane, just to see if another California was sunny. This flight ticket is also a romantic promise, and when we are young, we will always have doubts, but we will keep it regardless.
When I was young, I didn't believe that love would change, so in a year, you haven't changed, and I haven't changed, and we will meet again today one year later. "Where do you want to go?" "Anyway, go wherever you want to go!" No plan, no preparation, the destination of the ticket is not important, how long you can fly is not important, the most important thing for young love is to take off , with confusion, courage, unknown and confidence!
