Just like the national temperament of Spain, people you don't know will smile and greet you and talk to you. Almodovar's films are always full of fiery wildness.
It's the same sentence, one side's water and soil support the other's people, and the Spanish humanistic temperament gave birth to the film style of the Spanish directors, which is so crazy that it makes people confused, which is the style I like.

From the coloring and scene design of the film, I can feel this enthusiasm at first glance. The first shot of the picture is the highly saturated red silk clothes that cover the entire screen, pulled away from the swaying texture of the clothes, and the male figurines also reflect the cultural atmosphere of the country.


The story unfolds with suspense and is narrated by the heroine's letters. The two lines of the heroine's past and present run parallel to each other and finally converge. Just like the evaluation of many people, Julieta is a very beautiful film.

The 25-year-old female protagonist went to teach abroad alone, and met a strange old man on the train. The strangeness of the old man made her a little scared, forcing her to leave her position and go to the restaurant. If it wasn't for the deer that happened to appear when he was passing by the window of the male protagonist - blurred music, in the dark night, a long-horned deer walked slowly in the field, looking at them, the shocking beauty of the picture was a dream, but also reality - - They don't sit together and talk, and the connection of the heart doesn't start from that moment.
Originally it was just a chance encounter, but because of the strange old man's suicide, the two were closely linked. My favorite scene, the train stopped suddenly and the old man disappeared. The heroine intuited that something had happened to him, so she opened the bag that the old man left in the position.
The quilt was slowly pulled away, and there was a pause that created a feeling of suspense, allowing the audience to guess what was inside. . .


Nothing!
The shock of the reversal brought about by the suspense, this moment brings me the same feeling that everything can be said without words.
Yes, life is like one encounter after another on the road. You think your luggage has been filled, but in the end you find that everything is actually empty.

This old man has remained in the meaning of the heroine's life since then, and her life has also undergone major changes because of him. Whether it is an extramarital affair with the male lead from beginning to end, the male lead died due to the storm, leaving her like a walking corpse for a long time, and then Another blow to her daughter's leaving without saying goodbye. Without this old man, nothing would have happened.

The heroine is sitting in front of the basketball court, where her daughter used to play basketball without saying goodbye for 12 years. It is still the color of high-saturated soil walls and clothes, and the details are full of the strong and fiery style of Spain.


The ending is still an unexpected open ending. The heroine meets her life partner again, and her daughter finally sends her the first open heart letter in 12 years. A new life is about to begin, and she just turned a fork and returned to the road of life again.

Everything is because of that deer, everything is because of that weird old man, everything is just destiny!
