Youth is a bright sadness

In February 2006, Berlin, Heath Ledger took his Candy to the exhibition. At the press conference, inevitably, there were many questions directed at Brokeback Mountain. Heath just smiled shyly, and politely brought the topic back to Candy. He told everyone: This movie is a movie he returned to his hometown to shoot after many years in Hollywood, so he cherishes it very much.

Looking at Candy, I saw that two of them were playing together. They are equally beautiful and equally powerful. Indeed, in terms of scripts, production, directors, and roles, even in low-cost films, Candy is by no means superior. She is a green fruit, but it exudes a dizzying magic. That kind of heart-and-lung power made me so sad.

Abbie Cornish under the lens is so beautiful that the Candy she gives life is unreasonably forbearing and extremely nervously fragile. Candy has always endured too much, but she has always been stubborn and bravely fighting. The only two times she has cried, once when she shared the news of her pregnancy with her father, and the other time when she learned that she could not keep the baby in the end.

Because of loving Dan, Candy became addicted to drugs, and because of her children, she tried to quit drugs. But they all failed. The crystallization of love and love disappeared irretrievably in the vast and merciless world. Candy's only humble request for life fell on the dusty ground of reality and was broken.

Wrong at the beginning, from the beginning. When she met Dan, she desperately grabbed the man like a straw, trying to escape her original life. But his incompetence and cowardice did not accumulate enough energy, which would only lead her into deeper and more endless pain and sinking. Dan's love can't help Candy, love is like a shot of drugs, it can bring a wonderful illusion, but it can't change the trajectory of fate. In their dreams, they hugged each other for warmth, and when they woke up, it was even more icy cold.

Candy was desperate, she used madness to call Dan's sobriety. Because we love you so much, we can't be together again. Dan finally found a new job, wanted to settle the past, ready to start a new life... but unfortunately, he couldn't.

In January 2008, Heath died unexpectedly from his apartment in Manhattan, New York. The news was overwhelming, and as expected, those with good things turned out Candy, just like when I turned out my brother’s posthumous work "Alien Space". They said: Look, he was too "poisoned" in filming this movie.

Once upon a time, there was Dan and Candy……

Under the bright sunshine of Australia, loving each other indulgently, squandering them, seemingly endless youth.

Love is not bread. To put it bluntly, it is nothing.

Candy quotes

  • Dan: [reading of 'I Carry Your Heart With Me' by E. E. Cummings] Here is the deepest secret nobody knows. Here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide. And this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart... I carry your heart, I carry it in my heart.

  • Dan: We had a lot going for us. We'd found the secret glue that held all things together. In a perfect place, where the noise did not intrude, our world was so very complete.
