—————
In all fairness, this should have been a very beautiful film - beautiful and capable female teacher, beautiful girl playing in the castle, beautiful sky, valley, sparkling lake, naked swimming in the middle of the night , demagogic words, when jumping from a high platform into a deep water, as beautiful as a fish, free and fearless - really, very pure beauty.
So where do the cracks appear?
The transfer student is really always a bridge. When the cold and mysterious Spanish girl suddenly enters the life here, all the order and appearance are subverted.
When hypocrisy expires, all that is good is nothing but icing for ugliness.
The story in the movie takes place in England.
Eva, who appeared in front of the camera for the first time, had a dark hat, a white shirt, a black tie, a striped knitted sweater, a silver-gray windbreaker, smoky fingers, and a deep and charming face. She leaned on the boat casually, so the lake Light can only be the background. Di looked at her with admiring eyes, his eyes were like trying to see through a dream that needed to come true, anxious and full of yearning, intense and pure.
This feeling is very familiar.
When she was young, it was a blessing to have an excellent guide by her side. Di loved her teacher, her guide, almost wholeheartedly, as if she was caring for her sparkling dreams.
MISS G has never disappointed her, before meeting Fiama.
What is the standard of hypocrisy?
If this is hypocrisy, is it too cruel to be hypocritical for a lifetime?
Fiama is her dream, she has all the temperament she desires, quiet and generous, elegant in manner, never lacking in mysterious and adventurous temperament, impeccable excellence and never show off, no words, like quiet and close wings. Swallowtail butterfly, her temperament is natural, so noble and impeccable.
On the contrary, MISS G is full of flaws in front of her.
Watching the process of cracking the mask was slow and cruel, Fiama didn't say anything, did nothing, just stubbornly and bluntly silently refused, which was enough to make MISS G miserable.
She was willing to give anything to get her recognition, and she longed to be equal. However, the other party was unmoved, or rather dismissive.
No matter how perfect she hides, how self-respecting, strong and wise she is in the eyes of others, in front of Fiama, she is useless.
Just a liar used to wearing masks.
The bravery and perseverance she preaches is like showing off how thrilling the waves on the lake they have seen are in front of sailors who have experienced big waves on a big ship.
Fiama didn't like it at all, she looked at her like a clown trying to please everyone by showing off a fairy tale.
The poor liar was so nervous that she ran away from a trip to the store on her own, and could only pick up her self-esteem in front of a group of children, she weaved those magnificent experiences, she acted fearlessly and confidently, like a true adventurer. Alive, she was about to convince herself to believe these lies.
However.
Once the mask is used to wearing it, once it is forcibly taken off, it will be like stripping flesh and blood.
Since it is a dream, it will eventually wake up.
MISS G was undoubtedly impressed by the child. When she saw Fiama, she was as amazed as she suddenly saw the image materialized in the book beside her. Her soul and her heart are attracted, and this attraction is blind and hot.
She kissed her, like kissing her ideal self. She shivered and embraced her, as she embraced another soul of her own.
How despicable and humble she was, she couldn't express her inner devout yearning. If the children at school are unfinished, then the Spanish girl in front of her is the most exquisite work of art that has been completed, a fatal miracle.
She knows she doesn't deserve it. All the expectations of MISS G have come true in Fiama, but Fiama has never been a flower irrigated by lies in her hands, so she disdains to be grateful for the deception and protection of the greenhouse.
The girl who has been watching Miss G coldly knows that there can be no eternal umbrella in this world. This woman gives children hope, but once this hope cracks, it will be vulnerable.
It is more unfortunate to be riddled with holes or to know nothing.
Brutally revealing the truth, hidden under the mask is the cowardly and selfish heart.
The world that Ms. G has worked so hard to build collapsed overnight.
Hypocrisy has a shelf life.
When the contradiction between reality and dream could not be reconciled, she finally chose to kill her dream with her own hands. Seeing her dream die in her arms, she dropped a cold kiss on her lips, tears flowing down her face, but her expression was shockingly calm.
The metaphor is so desperate and desolate.
So much so that when Di was stunned when he saw the truth, MISS G's eyes looked at the past, cold and complicated, and any curse words were not enough to describe the impact of that moment.
She was destined to never escape her own cage.
In fact, in the whole movie, the thing that moved me the most was MISS G.
Eva played Miss G in the first half of the movie just right, and even to some extent reminded me of MR KEATING in Dead Poets Society, the radiance of that charisma, even if it was disguised, the heat it radiated also It really did its job, shining a light on these kids growing up.
Even if you know the truth, you can't bear to blame.
She taught them freedom, courage, and perseverance. Even if it was faked, she was trying to pretend it to them.
Human character is always light and dark side by side.
I'm wondering what children's lives would be like without MISS G. Without those encouragement and guidance, they might just like other children, they would go to class, eat, pray, and live by the rules. They never thought that they would jump into the lake in the middle of the night under the moonlight, and they would be completely silent. How clear is their laughter in the world.
As a teacher, she is successful. But how pathetic she is as a person.
The appearance of Fiama has opened up the most difficult part of her human nature. She deliberately wanted to get Fiama's approval, but she actually wanted the approval of the self that exists deep in her heart, how sad.
Fortunately, however, the movie finally left the audience with an idealized ending - when Miss G's hypocrisy expired, the seeds she planted took root in Di's body.
Better to leave than never.
This is also a kind of growth.
