Success is colorless and odorless, and you won't feel it when you get used to it. - "All About My Mother"
Pain and Glory is a good movie for me. I think the success of a movie is that when I watch it, I can often find some people, stories, and feelings in my life from the characters in the movie. It seems that after reading a book after a long time, what emerges in front of you is no longer a continuous plot, but a momentary expression, color, or powerful words intertwined with desire. A good book, I never want to read it in one sitting, and so is a good movie. It took about a week to watch the entire movie on and off. When I opened it for the first time, the pool was filled with calm and a little hopeless blue breath in my heart, and I couldn't help but hold my breath, just like in the pool that Salvador recalled. I don’t know if you like to hold your breath in the swimming pool, then slowly bury your body in the water, wait for your body to slowly float up, and gradually merge with the water that holds your body up. It was like a growing water plant, and he forgot the breath held in his chest. In water, the senses change. Sight, smell, hearing, and taste all gradually fade away, but the mind seems to jump out of your body in an instant, spreading out in the water like ink. For Salvador, this memory starts from the riverside in summer and the white fabric washed by my mother. It is often said that young people have good memory and can clearly remember many things that have happened. When they are old, they forget yesterday. I had doubts about this statement. I have no doubts about my memory ability. From elementary school to now, endorsement has never been a problem. But somehow, the memory of life seems to be no longer so clear, as if he has lost his keen sense of taste, and he often swallows it whole. And the more important the matter is, the more unrealistic it is to recall it after it happened, as if it seemed to happen to another person, just looking at it as a bystander, so that I often feel , Have you never seriously lived for yourself? I don’t know if the director also has such a feeling that the entire film spans the time of childhood and the obscure time after getting old, the youth that should be bright in the middle has nowhere to go, and in the end it only starts from Alberto’s play. Let us know those precious memories.
