Lost in mind

Today I watched "Lust, Caution" for the second time, and until the end, the ending song started showing, I didn't turn off the screen and put on headphones. This melody basically runs through the whole movie. The part where Wang Jiazhi just came to Shanghai, the part of the rain play, the part where she and Mr. Yi sat in the car silently holding hands.

There was another section where she let him go, walked across the street, and got on a rickshaw, the driver was pedaling with a smile. She was fascinated by the windmill that was spinning incessantly at the front of the car.

The road ahead was blocked, and she really couldn't escape. She held the capsule that ended her life in her hand and remained silent. She didn't take it and chose to wait for his trial. Did she have the illusion of seeing him again in the interrogation room?

Instead of coming, he came to her empty room and sat on her bed. Before he was about to leave, ten o'clock rang, and the world was separated. His shadow was projected on the bed and solidified.

The melody sounded again, pure music, Alexandre Desplat's, called Wang Jiazhi's theme, Wong Chia Chi's Theme.

She is tenacious, she is thoughtful, she loves reading, and she loves this nation.

But she fell in love with Mr. Yi's loneliness.
