a mirror

The beginning of the film is a school, a boarding school. There are two people sitting on the boat. From the conversation, we can tell that it should be the student and the teacher they admire, or the teacher and the student she is most optimistic about.

Miss G is extremely confident, but this confidence is limited to this school. Di can be called the best of her students. Miss G is the god in Di's heart. She adores G. In her eyes, G is perfect, and everything in her should be in line with G.

Did you notice this conversation?

When Miss G asked: "What is the most important thing for a person to live?"

-God.

G: No.

-God's creatures?

G: No.

—Death.

G: In Life! Di?

D: Desire, Miss G.

G: Yes! Thank you, Radfield!

Obviously, Di and G are both people with desires. "The most important thing in life is to have desires. You can get whatever you want. The whole world is yours." Look, what a passionate person Miss G is. Among her students, she is so different, so bold, and has countless interesting "personal experiences". G enjoys the feeling of being adored. She also thinks she is like that. Until Fiamma came along.

Fiamma - a new member of their swimming team. Noble, beautiful, excellent. She is what G imagines herself to be like.

F was "late" for the first time. "Then we'll see if you're worth the wait." G looked at her with a half-smile. Obviously, she deserves to be waited for. Her diving posture made everyone present had to admire her. She is excellent. And Di is no longer the benchmark. Miss G started admiring her, she wanted to be like F. G stole a piece of dessert sent to her by F's family, and tasted it excitedly outside the school gate, with a deep aftertaste. Then he brought F's postcard, trying to get to know her step by step, and then become her.

Miss G, who did not leave after graduating from this boarding school, became a teacher. She never left school, she was actually a coward. She has a beautiful dream, but she doesn't want to realize it in the past. She just stays in the school and uses her own lies and disguised beauty to make students worship her. This satisfied her little desire. However, I think she just captured Di. Di adores this beautiful and courageous female teacher. Di is the head of the students, and she accepts being abandoned at a boarding school better than anyone else. Such a Di should naturally become the object of worship of the students. They always follow Di's command. Di worships G so much, and of course they worship G as well. When G was in a hurry because he couldn't find F, Di was the first to propose to help the teacher find F, although she hated F so much in her heart. Other students were not so happy this time. Di always put her worship objects first, and obeyed G obliged.

Miss G is like a mirror. Every one of us can be seen in her.

Miss G repeated the "lines" she was about to say before buying something. "Four doughnuts, three jam pies, and a loaf of bread. Four doughnuts, three jam pies............" I don't think the experience would be G alone. I did so too.

Miss G is short-sighted, and her wonderful experience is a fragment from a best-selling book, or she imagined it herself. Reading can increase your knowledge, but it can never replace what you see with your eyes and experience. Have you read a lot of books but never practiced it?

Miss G followed the rules when she was a student. She was exiled by her family, and she was afraid that the school would not want her. Even when she became a teacher, when she left school, she strictly followed the rule of "only five items are allowed on each person's desk". Even after setting it up, she will count again uneasy: one, two, three...

too many, Miss G has the shadow of each of us.

Pride, self-confidence, cowardice, jealousy, inferiority complex, envy, hypocrisy, worship, infatuation...

All depression is caused by not being able to live out the ideal self. But that ideal self appeared in front of him. We envy, envy, hate. We try to get close to that ideal self. Hope to be friends with her. Taste the food she eats. Read the books she has read. Inside is extremely complicated. Because of her appearance, cracks appeared in himself. She was so vulnerable under her light.

Many people thought it was a Les film. I know this is a movie about "obsessed". Everyone has a crush. Hope to be as good as him/her. It's not like, it's not love. Is a deep infatuation, worship.

F was killed by G. G thinks F's death is perfect. Because F shouldn't come into this world. What kind of person is this? So evasive, so cowardly, so vulnerable.

After revealing G's mask, Di bravely embarked on the journey of his dream. Di don't go the old way of G, don't keep your dreams only in fantasy. At the end of the film, Di took out the perfume that F gave, and she bravely left this place where she once thought she would belong forever. Because her desire is not the cowardice of G.

Have you seen yourself

anything is possible, as long as you have the desire.

Do you have desire?
