Gersomina - you have to understand the world's tenderness and affection

Road movie, the film is very subtle. I finally understand that the feelings and emotions conveyed by a good literary and artistic work are mostly indescribable. The complicated feelings entwined together are the ones that come to me every time I see Gersomina's eyes and horns. Gersomina loves acting, as the tightrope walker would say, do you ever feel like you're born with a comedian face? That's how "Fool" felt when he saw her for the first time. He glanced at her out of the window in the crowd, and felt intuitively funny.

Check out the song "La Strada". Zombano finally fell on the beach, and the rolling white waves did not appear gentle in the night. Perhaps his crying and drunkenness represent the moment when he finally understands love. After Lisa (Jersomina's older sister) died, Zombaano bought Gersomina with money, this violent-looking man used his iron lungs to perform to survive, so why did he buy a woman? Even "idiots" have expressed that I might have a hard time taking a woman. The conversation between the fool and Gersomina, I once thought it was the fool's intentional teasing and disguise for revenge. I was as moved as Gersomina when he took the necklace off and waved to the woman to sing. Gersomina doesn't seem to be able to speak very much, however, her eyes are like a sea of ​​stars, shining brightly.

The so-called deep affection is probably like a dialogue between Gersomina and the nun in the film,

We also move frequently. Yeah? I move every two years, this is my second time moving. Why? Avoid feeling attached to a place, and you'll easily fall in love with where you live, even if it's a small tree. When you like a place, your love for God diminishes.

This is probably a heartfelt confession. Rain is mentioned twice in the film, Gersomina seems to like it because then she doesn't have to perform, she is with Zombano and asks him if you like me a little bit. I don't hate acting, I hate you as a person. Germisona said this when she fled for the first time. When Zambano returned from prison, she chose to wait instead of walking with the circus and the fool.

Zombano turned to steal the nun's gold that night, and then accidentally killed the fool, all of which he interpreted as, I want to work, I want to live in this world. With such a simple wish, how could you not forgive this poor man? The director set the whole movie as a circus performer, and gave Zombaano and Fool a car to add to the turbulence of their lives. In fact, this group of people has a deep sense of loneliness that others cannot understand. The tightrope walker tumbled alone over the city, and Tsambano's body was aided by the hard and cruel chains. Gersomina once asked a fool, does no one care about you? Shores your mother will care about. However, when he and the broken car were buried under the bridge, who knew?

The director saw all the cruelty and intolerance in the world with the help of Gersomina's eyes. Somina said goodbye to the nun in the stray motorcycle shed, but couldn't tell her, sorry, we stole your gold. I'm sorry, I seem to be full of regrets about the personnel of this place after only staying for one night. After the fool died, Somina lay in bed for two weeks, and since then she has lost her mind.

I wasn't too surprised when the director told us the scene where Somina died at the end with the tune on the trumpet. It might be like the night she first left Zombaano, going crazy in a deserted square. This time, though, she had a trumpet and a more lonely disappointment in her hand.

La Strada quotes

  • Zampanò: [reciting his act by rote before a crowd] Here we have a piece of chain that is a quarter of an inch thick. It is made of crude iron, stronger than steel. With the simple expansion of my pectoral muscles, or chest, that is, I'll break the hook.

    [collecting money from the crowd]

    Zampanò: Thank you, thank you. Now, to do this feat, I must fill myself up like a tire. If a blood vessel should break, I would spit blood. For instance, in Milan a man weighing 240 pounds lost his eyesight doing this trick. That is because the optical nerves take a beating, and once you lose your eyes, you are finished. If there's any delicate person in the audience, I would advise him to look away 'cause there could be blood.

    [with seemingly great effort, he breaks the chain]

  • Gelsomina's Mother: She's not like Rosa. But she's a good girl, poor thing. She'll do what she's told. She just came out a little strange. But, if she eats every day, maybe she'll get better.
