I originally wanted to watch this film because I accidentally saw the introduction of American violinist Joshua Bell on TV. His playing skills are dazzling, and one of his most famous works is the score for "The Red Violin".
I first downloaded the Mp3 from Emule and listened to it. I always felt gloomy when I first came up, and I didn't appreciate it very much, but the recurring themes seemed to be mysterious. Finally, this mystery whetted my appetite.
The beginning of the Anna theme seems to take people into a distant time and space, followed by a precarious sea journey, with some hardships and accumulations during the period, and the music that appears after that has a sense of breaking through the ups and downs , this expressive force is continuously strengthened in subsequent violin performances. Think how this tune came out of Anna's mouth, and it was during her pregnancy. Presumably the combination of an old husband and a young wife (although Anna claims to be an elderly mother in it, and the master violin maker's gray hair is obviously much older than her.) To some extent, the young hostess feels a little inexplicable, and it is still unknown when she is pregnant with a child. Looking out at the snow-capped peaks from the iron-fenced window, Anna asked the old servant about her future. The old woman took out the tarot, Anna drew the cards, and told the old woman to tell her everything, good or bad.
Then the time and space jumped, and the scene was the lively scene of the famous piano auction in the New York auction. It appears at least three or four times in the film, always around the time the red violin is about to be auctioned off, and at first it was a little annoying that it turned out that the work had something else "deep".
Almost every time, the old servant first unpacks the card, then shows a story of the piano in another time and space, and then jumps back to modern New York. There are many people who have come into contact with the violin, and the detailed descriptions are a little boy in a mission school in the mountains, Pope, a famous British violinist who obtained a famous violin from a gypsy girl, and two Chinese people who sacrificed their lives to protect the violin and Western music during the Cultural Revolution. , as well as the "Black Brother" who is an expert in verifying the authenticity of musical instruments.
What Tarot divination sees should be Anna's future, why is the fate of the violin connected in a subtle way? You might be smart enough to guess the answer.
In terms of shooting techniques and soundtrack effects, it is a good film and worth watching.
