Wonderful Music Tour

Last night, I spent more than two hours revisiting this classic play with bated breath. Sigh with emotion.

I know very little about music, and the piano is a sacred instrument. It's amazing how the black and white keys dance to a beautiful melody! I don't know how to call this movie, the English translation is "The Legend of 1900", the Hong Kong translation is "Go with me", "The Legend of 1900", "The Pianist at Sea". There is no really perfect Chinese translation, because the film itself cannot be analyzed and has no theme.

"1900" - a symbol of a poor orphan's short life left to others; representing the existence of a talented pianist; representing a person who never set foot on land from birth to death. When he and max were sitting on the piano and sliding in the golden hall, the elephant was wandering in the ocean. The Virginia is his cradle and the ocean is his home. So comfortable, how happy, even though everything around him is overturned, he still walks steadily. This cannot but be said to be a miracle, and it makes people doubt whether such a pure and innocent person really existed in this filthy world. Like the coming of Jesus, it is out of tune with the secular world. He is completely an outsider in this world, recording what he saw and hearing with curious eyes and musical notes, and even more attentively rescuing the restless and depressed crowd in the cabin.

JAZZ can play so freely, at will. Who taught him to touch the keys with his fingers? Who taught him that the combination of black and white keys can be pleasing? The dazzling light that radiated from 1900 during the piano test with Sherribee, the founder of JAZZ, made people unable to look away. Too skilled, how can Shelly match the talent of 1900 with the heart of a mortal. The piano and the ocean are destined to be his melody, and no one can control it.

How can a legend be without love, the amorous sea, the amorous piano, when the beautiful girl passes by the hanging window, clear eyes, full lips, slightly messy blonde hair, like a picture embedded in the window, pure beauty People suffocate. Feelings flow freely from my fingers, it's the heart of a lover, it's shyness in the torrential rain, it's the hesitant speech on the farewell deck...

I still don't know how to sort out my feelings about this film, it's too chaotic.

- "This cigarette is for you, I don't smoke."

    Some people go from land to sea in search of the wider world, some people listen to the sound of the sea on land, and people at sea have a fear of the unknown for the solid land that stretches indefinitely. The boat is his key, he doesn't have to get off the boat, the world naturally passes by him, the world doesn't need to know him, but he can read the world from the keys on the boat. The keys are limited, the music is unlimited, the length of life is limited, the possibility of life is unlimited

    Maybe because of being abandoned since childhood, he had no sense of security. Later, he said that "the limited piano keyboard and the cruise ship made me feel at ease", and even the woman he liked didn't give him enough security to have the courage to go out. Maybe 1900 is right, the world of high-rise buildings is more complex and more challenging, but it also has additional troubles. In order not to worry, he chose not to challenge. So only the people who got off the boat thought it was a pity that he died with the boat, but he himself felt good. In addition, the film is in the era of immigration waves that immigrated to the United States under various crises in Europe. Records replaced live performances and jazz replaced classical repertoire. Does the film express from the side not to blindly conform to social trends, but to retain the elegance of European civilization. The demeanor, less worldly, more pure! Just like if an artist paints for the sake of selling money, then his paintings will no longer have his own soul. In 2019, it will be re-released nationwide. After watching it, I suddenly feel that 1900 is very similar to Cheng Dieyi. A loyalty.
