At the end of the film, it doesn't say whether Consula died or not. The end is just all the beautiful fragments of Consula and his travels. Some people say that this is another Lolita. The filming is very slow, and it is so slow but it makes people feel warm.
The film begins with an old professor's self-report, talking about sex, love, marriage, etc. He represents the thoughts of most men who advertise freedom and independence. In particular, Tolstoy is quoted in the film. The biggest surprise of men is getting old. The old man in the film represents cultivation, knowledge, wealth and experience, while the female student Kang Sulla represents a woman who yearns for love, longing for romance and surprises. Just obsessed with Consula's body when they were in a relationship, fell into agitatedness when the old professor fell in love with him, he fantasized about Consula always dating younger men, the old professor's jealousy started to breed because of age He began to fall into deep unease, as he and his friends said he would always be taken away by young people. What the old professor brought to the audience was the inferiority complex and selfishness of an old man, as well as the anxiety against time. When he didn't show up for the appointment, he knew that he would completely lose Consula. Maybe the first half of the film doesn't count as a storyline maybe the story starts with Consula's phone call two years later, when he gets a message from Consula, he sits there imagining that Consula is married and so on, he becomes again Very irrational. When David called Consula back, he seemed to see tears in his eyes. In two years, the woman who used to be might fall asleep every night. When Consula met David, he calmly told him that he had breast cancer and wanted to keep his favorite body, and asked to take nude photos. The two of them hugged and cried on the sofa, and the two people who loved each other quietly experienced this ending. When looking back to watch the sex scene in the film, the old professor was full of love for her body. He said that her body was a work of art, but when she was with her 20-year-old lover, it seemed so bland. The lover of 20 years has never entered his heart like this.
This is the climax of the film. He reconciled with his son, who had been at odds with him for many years, for Consula's body. The son said to him that I understand you, because his son is also in love with a woman outside of marriage. As if he had grown a lot older and lost a lot, he took a photo of her as it was two years ago, as natural and beautiful as it was two years ago. When Kang Sulla performed the operation alone without knowing it from David, David was holding the album in his arms on the bustling street. Thinking back to your friends, why would you look at her in the past tense? Love him to choose to escape, love him to choose to leave the best side to him. The streets of New York were pouring rain when the son informed him that he could see her. The appearance of this image represented the sadness and sorrow in the hero's heart. The old man running in the rain looked so young for love. Finally, David told Consula that he I remember every minute they spent together, David hugged Consula on the cramped hospital bed, and the music ended.
The shooting atmosphere of the whole film is deep, quiet and restrained, just like the love of the protagonist in the play is so repressed and reserved. The hero does not dare to love because of his age, and the heroine chooses to leave for love. If there is no illness, she will come back, because they will not love each other. choose to escape. Love such a vulgar subject only feels warm in the film. For the love between the two people who are different in age and for such warm affection, I once fantasized about whether it would be better to replace the protagonist with Nicolas Cage or Marlon Brando. I watched it three times. But I found that only the double-starred actor Ben Kingsley can act so vividly, as a comment said, he may be playing himself, as a friend said, this man is very brilliant.
I don’t know what to do, and once the love is deep, Consula will find someone who is better than David, but they choose to come together. Love comes from their hearts, and mature and charming cultivation has become the attraction of most men to women, and the wrestling with women. It has also become a manifestation of men's conquest. No matter how to abandon distracting thoughts and material desires, it is a true love of the year. When love is mixed with too many things, it will become lifeless. A good relationship between the sexes is the best prerequisite for the achievement of love. When more and more long-term love is abundant in society, can we look at it rationally, if a relationship without emotion will not go far, such a relationship may have results or no results, as long as we can make ourselves Warm and touching pure love, why can't it be blessed? Pure and beautiful love should be blessed because after all, it is so pure and clear, the years are gone, and only the only emotion and love left in my heart can be comforted.
Sometimes we embrace some kind of power over others, but we have no control over our own lives. I long for true and deep love in the paradox, but I am not satisfied with the sweetness that comes, and I feel anxious and uneasy. Therefore, it is found that creating a balanced and independent spiritual space in avoidance is the best strategy, so many good things disappear quietly along with pain.
If you meet this kind of love in your lifetime, don't let go easily and leave when you encounter it, it will be even more pain, and there will be an exit, the exit of love and desire.
