My watchbook: "Last Tango in Paris"

This well-known film has been on my hard drive for two years, not because it was a classic and I was reluctant to delete it, but I couldn't watch it all the time. Two years ago, I tried to watch the first 20 minutes, but fell asleep... After that, every time I saw the name of this movie on my computer, I didn't dare to open it again, until recently I decided to clear the D drive. This time, I fell asleep twice, but I finally persevered. Sure enough, its narrative style is really not to my taste. This is the movie of that era. There is no denying the strength of Marlon Brando, and the charm of Maria Schneider cannot be ignored. This combination supports the whole film well and makes it look very thick, but the atmosphere of the film is really negative and dull, which makes me even insist. It is very difficult to read it, let alone to find its deep meaning. I read some comments about the film on the Internet, and I got a general understanding, but I feel that it is far away from myself.

    There are too many symbolic things. After 20 minutes of watching, I can't be tired. The performance is like a stage play, not a movie.

    "You want to find a person and hope that the other person will bring you a sense of security, so that you will no longer be afraid, and you will not feel lonely and empty. You cannot find such a person. You will always be lonely until you die. Escape the feeling of loneliness." You can actually see a movie starring Brando and three naked women in Chinese theaters!
