The bitter moon in the body

Mimi, the name, is enough to make people think about it. On the 96th bus, the shaky red girl, fluttering blonde hair, a mature woman, but with a child-like innocent smile. So that oscar thought it was a glimpse of heaven. So he looked for her frantically and tried to get her. In the golden sunlight, mimi's smiling face is so youthful that I can hardly imagine that this is the same person as the pale, coquettish and soulless woman at the beginning of the film. They can spend days and nights in the room without going out, immersing themselves in their sex games, or they can pretend to be pigs and dogs, seeking new excitement. But he was still tired all the time, and the beautiful body of this woman could hardly arouse his enthusiasm, so he was bored, hated, and cruelly hurt.

What makes me hard to understand is mimi's bitter pleading and patience to oscar. It's like changing from a princess to a maid who can talk and drink. She changed everything about herself to cater to it, but in exchange for even more unbearable humiliation. How to explain mimi's dependence and love on oscar, I don't understand, maybe I've never been such a sentimental girl, and I'm destined to not understand. Oscar is unfeeling, and it makes people feel like they have wiped out humanity. His unrelenting abandonment of mimi at an altitude of tens of thousands of feet eventually led to the tragedy of the second half of his life.

Between love and hatred, mimi's revenge makes it difficult to see what she is doing. She tied the paralyzed oscar to her side, tortured him, humiliated him, even worse than the oscar back then. But at the same time, it was not only Oscar who suffered, but also herself. She sacrificed her chance of happiness to deprive oscar of his normal life, or the right to spend time and drink. This even confuses oscar, whether she still loves me, after all, why should she torture someone who doesn't love.

Oscar broke down, facing Mimi who was looking for passion in women. And mimi, I think when facing a cold moon at an altitude of tens of thousands of feet, it has collapsed. The last words of oscar in this world are: baby, we are only too greedy. The greedy pursuit of the pleasure and passion of the body, the greedy hope and passion will never retreat. The bitter moon in that body.

    Yes, I like sad love. I want to say that after the orgasm is endless boredom, should we never reach the top? But how do you know that deadline?

    It's too good, and it pierces the essence of eroticism in one shot. We are just too greedy. Men's greed lies in their unwillingness to give up all women for one woman. Women's greed lies in wanting to possess all men forever. In the end, they either failed or paid a high price. Maybe God invented Adam and Eve just to have some fun for himself, so he gave them a physical match but a mentally dislocated setting, making them attract and torture each other. It's easy for women to overestimate the dimension of an animal like a man in a relationship. Later, the two women hugged each other, and there was a little bit of carelessness in their eyes. This is really a perfect scene. But having said that, reduce desire, be vigilant, greed, and let it be in the face of subsidence. People can always find some way to make the tragedy of love less tragic.
