A friend accidentally recommended "War in Love", because of its beautiful pictures and impressions, I have nothing to do to see it, I feel good, and I
prefer another translation of "The Clouds of Paris", because the gods and horses are all floating clouds, and there are also floating clouds under the fireworks of the battlefield. Life is fleeting. . .

The three main characters Gilda, Guy, and Mia in the film have different personalities, pursuits, and backgrounds

. Her family is prominent, but she is very disappointed with her family life. Her parents who divorced in her early years, do not pay attention to her father, and her stepmother
, Guy, who is as young as herself, is handsome but always feels young. She is a struggling little person who works hard on her own. , pure, believe in love, what he first pursues is a happy family life with Gilda, and again the safety of domestic friends.
Mia, a black-haired beauty, wants to go back to her motherland, to help her compatriots and cherish her family by being a nurse; the

three of them have the same perseverance despite choosing different lives under the same war background. Gilda was in Paris at the back of the war. Guy and Mia went to the front. They all wrote to Gilda and said that the time they spent together was the best time in life. In my opinion, the three of them are very close to each other. Love, but the degree of love and the way of love are different. This is a film that the director shows us how to face life in a difficult situation through love.

Gilda is probably a character that everyone likes. She is true, self-contained, persistent, dare to love, dare to hate, beautiful, wise, and has the courage to try, including love, art, and life experience.
Gilda was told by the "wizard" when she was a girl that she "only saw 34 years old" (life). From Gilda's stubborn pursuit of the answer, it can be seen that she attaches great importance to fate.
Under such a curse of fate, her life is full of life. After all kinds of attempts, bohemian. My father said that she changed too fast from ballet and painting, maybe because of the fear of fate.
I thought: How do you know that you can live a hundred years? Can you live longer than 34? People, you are always wasting your time and sighing that time flies. . . . I am especially so.
Gilda meets Guy, makes someone she cares about, she's willing to keep in touch with him, tells him about her life. . .
She said that meeting some people felt very special, and wanted to catch up to communicate, if you didn't go, you would miss out, maybe you would never meet in this life, this is fate,
so she put her feelings for Guy and Mia. , are regarded as the arrangement of fate,
and Guy and Mia went to the front line with national righteousness. In Gilda's view, this is betrayal! The happy life of the betrayed three people, the life of the betrayed individual, so they take a disregarded attitude towards their letters, but in fact she is very lonely
Facing the news of Mia's death, she weeps, and when Guy wants to tell her, She was even more excited.
Seeing Guy returning from the battlefield, she wanted to welcome but refused, and finally left. This scene was still impressive.
Gilda said, "I only live for the people around me", a typical self Reflection, the most real manifestation of human nature, think that an ordinary person usually does not stand in a high position to say that it is for the nation, the country, and the human society, but only from the self, taking care of his family and the people around him. . At the same time, Gilda also did the same, doing a lot for Guy, Mia, and the whole country silently, and endured a lot.
Such a genuine and outstanding woman died tragically in the end, and I felt resentful in my heart!
On the surface, it seems that Gilda is chasing love, but in fact, what she is facing is her positive life!
