A Metaphor of Love - "Feeling Perfect"

Bizarre diseases ravage the world, people lose their sense of smell after experiencing extreme sadness, and then say goodbye to their sense of taste in the fear of hunger. Anger corresponds to hearing, and in the end, humanity is collectively blinded in endless joy. Scientists don't know what causes these diseases, how they spread, and they don't know any antidote. The world fell apart in blow after blow, then slowly rebuilt, and people continued to live in new ways. The film ends in darkness where all five senses are lost.

How desperate and pessimistic is this if this is a sci-fi film? If this is just a metaphor for the period of passionate love, will there be a hint of warmth from the bottom of my heart? The male and female protagonists simply meet each other and are ambiguous. No one can tell exactly how a person falls in love with another person, but almost everyone can tell the time when love comes quietly. Mostly someone sheds their own tears in your story, you share each other's grief, and you enter the first stage of a relationship together. When you start to fall in love with someone, you will remember the smell of TA firmly. During a certain period of time, the sense of smell will be very sensitive, but all the smells are meaningless, because you are just constantly looking for the breath that is opposite to the TA. When there is only one taste left in the world, it is actually no different from losing the sense of smell. As the relationship deepens, the desire for attachment and the unfamiliar, uncertain, and insecure conflict with each other, and the sense of fear arises spontaneously. Fear of loneliness, fear of the future, fear of everything, endlessly grabbing, but still feel empty in my heart. Lovers began to think about tea and rice, and they were unwilling to eat.

It always feels good to think about love, but when you examine the whole process of love under the microscope, you find that so many negative energies are bursting out. It seems that love is a catastrophe, destroying two worlds and slowly splicing them together. Some directors only show everyone the sweet show of love, two people laughing and laughing, lingering sorrow; and "Perfect Feeling" also shows everyone the dark side of love, all the sadness, uncertainty, fear, and even quarrels. , anger, and the violent energy that roils the world.

I often see a young couple arguing like a storm after a sweet love, scaring others to think that they have suddenly lost their minds. No one is perfect, so no relationship is perfect. The backlog of discord and dissatisfaction in the early stages of a relationship will explode one day. Deaf after the rage, unable to hear the persuasion of others, or even the explanation of the lover. The next step is a lonely isolation period, being isolated or self-isolating, cleaning up your mood alone, and returning to a world beyond recognition. Friends look at you weird, and even you feel weird. Stayed until the war finally evaporated, and you couldn't help but miss each other again. After experiencing sadness, fear and anger, love is suddenly pure and beautiful, sweet and pleasant. Forget about so many imperfect injuries, or simply ignore them. So people say: love is blind.

In fantasy movies, princes fall in love with princesses, and angels fall in love with angels. The heavy-duty "Perfect Feeling" is about a bastard falling in love with a bastard, shedding the beautiful fake coat, and the love is so real that it makes people a little scared. How many tangled fetters, vicious and cruel, no matter how bastard you are, one day you will meet a lover who will make you heartbroken. No matter how dogmatic you are, how many rules, and many eccentricities, no matter how many "absolutely no" and "never" vows you have, you will eventually open up to the person you love, and those once insurmountable barriers are also It will eventually be annihilated in front of TA.

The apocalypse of "Feeling Perfect" is actually a metaphor for the apocalypse of the single world. The lovers finally slowly rebuild their intertwined common world, a new one.

Love is like a catastrophe.
