If the moment is beautiful, who will live in the memory every day? If reality is wonderful, who would spend all day in movies? The movie is so good, you can dream. While we are dreaming, the people in the film are also dreaming. With the development of VR technology, movies are not far behind to play an immersive experience. As early as 1997, Feng Xiaogang's "Party A and Party B" already had a similar gameplay. People always say that fashion is a cycle. In fact, it is the same in the movie. The French film "Belle Epoque" released in 2019 was nominated for several awards at this year's French Caesar Film Awards. The way the story is told is similar to that of "Party A and B". The slogan of "Party A and Party B" is a good dream day trip, the purpose is to let people live the addiction of being the protagonist and experience a different life. Multiple stories are linked together, like a time-travel story collection. This film is a company of beautiful memories. With the support of actors and props, as a time traveler, you can go back to any era you want, mainly focusing on the marriage and love of the protagonist Victor. The two films can also reflect the difference in ideology between the two countries. In "Party A and Party B", the benevolent Ge You finally made a good dream day trip a public welfare undertaking. In this film, Victor was ruthlessly driven out after being poor and in vain. , can only maintain this dream by making an advance payment to his son. Romance movies are generally divided into two types, one is romantic love, which tells a touching love story. For example, "The Notebook", "Heartbeat", "Titanic", etc., there are many such movies, and the audience also likes to watch them. The other is more realistic, such as "Marriage Story", "Revolutionary Road", "Twelve Nights" and so on. "Marriage Story" is love to the end, only hate and cannibalism. "Revolutionary Road" is the head of love smashed, exhausted, and tormented by each other. "Twelve Nights" contains the entire stage of love, from the initial acquaintance and love to the final estrangement. These types of films focus on the nature of love, and they all share a similarity, exploring how love ends, from falling in love at first sight, parental shortness, to mutual boredom. The former makes the audience believe in love, while the latter makes the audience not believe in love. Just like a cliché of movie fans, if Jack and Rose in "Titanic" can be saved, it must be the virtue in "Revolutionary Road". These two genres of romance show us a truth: how sweet love is at the beginning and how painful it is at the end. Apparently this movie falls into the latter category. When love enters the twilight, what should I do to save it? Victor and his wife have been married for 40 years. They are in a middle-aged and old age crisis. They are very interested in new things. Things are at two extremes. Victor is reluctant to try new things. Under the pressure of the times, he is out of place, rotten and rigid, unable to fit into the party with young people, unable to listen to the mechanical sound of navigation, his clothes are only gray and black, and he does not even have a mobile phone. His wife, Marianne, was the exact opposite. She was passionate and full of blood. Love to drink, like electronic products, pursue high-tech, and even cheat in marriage. Vitol is reluctant to change and sticks to tradition. The wife keeps up with fashion and is afraid of getting old. In the face of such differences, the two people who were at extremes failed to pass the test after all. They had a big fight and Victor was kicked out of the house. Depressed, he decided to accept his son's suggestion and, as a time traveler, go back to the year he met his wife. In that well-placed scene, directed by Antoine, based on a drawing of Victor when he was young, the scene is set in the cafe where he and his wife first met, and Margot plays his wife. Margot is a young, beautiful, wild man. , attractive woman. Victor was able to regain his heart with her infection. He seemed to be the heroic self again, shaved off his beard and put on a fashionable suit. Picking up painting again, marijuana, alcohol, parties, dancing, a youthful dream, let him indulge in it. Facts have proved that people love to live in memories. Victor is equally reluctant to wake up and even thinks he's in love with Margot. The director of the good man to the end decided to let Victor face reality, get back on his feet, and live in the moment. So redesign a play, let Victor see Margot's "true face" in order to save the marriage. Does he really love Margot? In fact, what he loves is only his young self, who had dreams and high spirits when he was young. He loved that era, when he was still famous and famous. But now it is a bubble, no one buys paper books, no longer paints, loses jobs, is abandoned by the times, and is hated by his wife. No one wants to face reality. What is wife Marianne doing when Victor is addicted to the past? A parallel clip cuts them together. One is enjoying the joy of returning to youth, and the other is continuing to endure the boredom of life, and the two are drifting apart. Marianne refuses to accept old age. Women are most afraid of getting old. There are many ways to get old, no matter which one is painful. Described as withered, haggard, dull in body, thinking behind the times. She treats aging like a rebellious maiden. Derailment, looking for fresh stimulation, which I believe can bring her back to youth. Fashionable, using various advanced technology products to prove that he is young, desperately wanting to look forward. She scoffs at her husband who was abandoned by the times, and even drives him away, because every time she sees her husband, it makes her think of her own old age fact. She thought these would keep her young and energetic, but she was wrong. After driving her husband away, she hid behind the door and slapped herself while crying. The infidelity failed to make her feel in love again, and everything began to cycle again, and she gradually hated the other party. After all, technological products are just a symbol and cannot bring spiritual comfort. Finally, a phone call from Victor brings them back together. Marianne and Victor begin to relive their love, and he confesses to Victor that he just can't stand himself. In a film, the screenwriter and director are gods. In the film, Antoine thinks that he can rely on his own arrangement to teach Victor to impress Victor and save the love of the two, and he is proud of it. At the end, it gives us another strong dose, and Victor doesn't immediately get up and pick up his lover's scarf as he did when he was young. But in a trance, I saw the love of my youth. Did Victor pick up that scarf after checking out? The director lets us decide for ourselves, because unlike life movies, in life, the script is in our own hands, and we have the right to choose different love endings. Picking it up or not picking it up is the best answer in our hearts. Picking it up is to forgive the dead love, to save a marriage, and to return to the ordinary life. Not picking it up is to free each other. Since love has expired, why not let it go. In the face of love, in the face of the times, it is necessary to maintain oneself and meet the trend of development. Staying young is the most important thing. What can we do in the face of aging? I can't change the fact of getting old. A dull and boring life is the norm for human beings. Salvation can only be achieved by treating it with common sense. Perhaps the golden mean is the best solution, one leading the other forward and one calming the other. When Victor, the dead tree, stretches out its buds, learns to draw with a computer, plays table tennis with young people, goes to parties and gets along with everyone, and lives in harmony with the times, no matter whether the old man saves the marriage or not, This dream is worth it, lovely. , to save the love of the two, and to be complacent about it. At the end, it gives us another strong dose, and Victor doesn't immediately get up and pick up his lover's scarf as he did when he was young. But in a trance, I saw the love of my youth.
