Giorgia is the flashpoint of youth

Idealistic people will probably be tempted by Matteo, but I also like Giorgia, because her appearance is the turning point of youth.
In the rest of our lives, you and I have to be entangled with so few special people, and love and hate are vague, but the things of fate in the dark have become the reason for each other to change, and even can no longer escape the trap of that person. Not only love and friendship, but all the bits and pieces that happened to you have become the reason for "drawing the ground into a prison".
Giorgia is such a presence for brothers Matteo and Nicola.
Nicola makes me jealous, yes, he is compassionate, he loves life, he does everything he can to turn youthful passion into love and compassion, and most importantly, he is moderate. Therefore, he is neither extreme nor extreme but inclusive of all things. Such a person is too cute and too rare. Current events produce heroes, but most of the heroes quickly perish in chaotic current events. He didn't, he survived so fully.
He resolutely gave up his vacation for Matteo's "rescue act". He felt guilty for failing to fully rescue Giorgia and chose to study psychiatry. He actively helped mentally ill patients to bring the same cruel doctor who abused Giorgia to justice. When he met Giorgia for the second time, he used patience to resolve it. After Matteo left, the person who was the hardest to speak but could find comfort was Giorgia, because he understood that the breaking point and turning point of youth was this woman.
But I don't want to say more about Nicola because I'm jealous of him because I love Matteo so much.
I have to say that the director is really poisonous. He has given everyone the warmth of his connections, even the extreme leftist Julia, but he made Matteo the "lucky one" chosen by God.
Matteo was supposed to be a rebellious wild horse, the embodiment of idealism, he should rebel against the system against privilege, he should be the one who is at the top of his studies but still has the courage to fight against education because of the teacher's incompetence, then he is the Happy because there is release.
But he was too forbearing, but unlike Nicola who released his forbearance through action, he was aggrieved. After watching the film, I always felt that Giorgia's influence on him was a little too deep. He wanted to break through, but he couldn't be himself because of a certain area in his heart, and that area was Giorgia. He was too unsuccessful once to assert himself, once to fight injustice.
When he was transferred to report to Sicily, his boss asked him why he was willing to come to such a place where there is no career. For such a luxurious resume, he said: In order to obey the rules (probably). I couldn't hold back the tears. Such a glamorous and beautiful man was very excited when he took Giorgia out of the mental hospital, because he also became a teacher of justice. However, he was not able to save Giorgia completely, and he even felt that his recklessness caused a mistake, so it might have been a better choice not to bring Giorgia out at that time. Since then, I always feel that there is a coldness on his body, the coldness that shuts everything out, whether it is his relatives or the female photographer who can capture his soul. He would suspect that perhaps there was a better habitat within the system, like Nicola, so sometimes he would rather live in Nicola's name in front of the person he thought was the most beautiful.
But he is not. After so many years of twisting his life, this person who has always been addicted to books and looking for identity and a harbor in it has finally summoned the courage to take control of his own life. Such a leap is a real release.
He still fell, like most heroes of current affairs, but his death seemed so unwilling or worthless to me. Because death shouldn't pay for his previous unhappiness. How could an idealist like him allow his life to be so unsatisfactory? How perfect he would be if Matteo who dared to love, hate, and dare to act, even if he left.
The director is so ruthless, why does Matteo only smile like a child in the poster. That kind of innocence is like a kind of irony that goes straight to the bottom of my heart, to the world.
I love him so much, he is the broken-winged angel who accidentally fell into the mortal world, and I hope that those who he rejects can be compensated by God. Even if it is so recklessly tiny once, that's fine.
