The one who has loved and hated, who has the courage to forgive, and who has the dignity to leave, is always a woman

I originally watched this movie because of a friend's recommendation. He said, "The sound of the piano is like a voice, and the one who has loved and hated, who has the courage to forgive, and who has the dignity to leave, is always a woman."

In retrospect a week after watching it is indeed the case, the themes of the story can be summarized as war, love and death. Anna's fiancé Franz died in the Franco-German war. The beginning of the story is cold and peaceful. The cemetery and the widow are black and white. The sudden visitor broke the peace and began to bring a rare opportunity to the film. color.

He called himself Franz's friend, which brought relief to Franz's parents and Anna, as if he could see Franz's past through him, and even because he and Franz had many similarities, the Franz family He even began to transfer his thoughts to him. As Franz's parents are, so is Anna.

The drama of the story lies in the reversal of the male protagonist's identity. He seemed to have changed from a savior to the source of all evil, his confession, his departure, her entanglement and distress, and finally she chose to forgive.

Even with the encouragement of Franz's parents, she bravely walked to France after moving out of her old address, and began to seek love. The camera has been reversed several times. From death to seeing, everything is like a dream. Anna probably thought this was the best arrangement.

Anna's story ends at the parting station. The male protagonist finally kisses Anna. They both know that this is probably the last meeting in this life. Before the train started, Anna's sentence "it was too late" also became the final sentence.

At the end of the story, Anna came to the "Suicide" again. It was obviously a sad picture, a bed, a knife, and a suicide, but at the end of the story, Anna gave Anna hope for life.

Did the male protagonist ever love Anna?

    I don't understand the mentality in the comments that seems "no big surprise is not a good movie". Except that Pierre Niney really doesn't like me, Ozon's grasp of delicate emotions is really in place, coupled with the heroine's convergent and precise performance, even if there is no turmoil, it can make people fall into the sad plot. All movies can catch my heart, and it seems that only François Ozon is the only one.

    I think everyone is accustomed to Ou Zong’s taste and lack of blood and passion. Ou Zong is purely telling a beautiful story this time. The pictures and music are beautiful to the inside in every minute: the black and white image is like "The Artist", and the male protagonist is like the piano. "Home", love is like "Meet and Hate Late". At first I thought it was war and forgiveness, but later I thought it was love, and finally I realized that it was life-----fate and fate, there is a beginning and an end.
