Ambiguous subject, no logic

The only scene I like is when the heroine eats pie.

The pie-cutting shot, it would be even better if she could finish a piece and the knife almost cut another cut on the pie and she suddenly stopped and slowly lowered the knife.

There are also two nice places.

1. The phrase "I'm waiting for someone." "Who?" "I don't remember." suddenly hit my heart.

2. The subtlety and sadness of the female protagonist lying on the ground listening to the song, with her fingers extremely close to the male protagonist ("infinitely close and infinitely far away").

insufficient:

It would be great if they could use more of what the heroine did after the hero's death to point out their past (for example, the small brush used by the heroine to paint the wall could have the mark of the hero jokingly engraved), otherwise the audience would not understand this at all. Two people, it is difficult to move.

2. The theme is vague. If the theme is "everything will die", then the first half should not spend so long talking about the heroine and the heroine's new husband. If love is immortal, there shouldn't be the so-called philosophy of inexplicable travel and honey juice in the second half.

The director has great ambitions, but the story is not clear, and a lot of film is wasted.

    I really want @米粉, because I feel the same, I have been thinking that it can be made into a short film within half an hour, and I want to make a feature film for Mao. But after the vicissitudes of life and the passage of time, I feel that the idea of ​​the film is different in an instant, and the grandness of "The Tree of Life" was actually shot. However, the backside of all this is just two words: affection. Since it is affectionate, it must be read with the sentence of death, and waiting has meaning.

    Finally figured out what it's like to play tricks - pointless long takes, deep ghosts, plain preaching, turnstiles, lightning bolts, smashing plates - a waste of time
