Honey, I know you will come to see me often after I die. Walk when you come, and take a carriage when you go back.
When Mu Xin saw this poem written by Heine to his wife, she felt sore, hot, and moved: this is called a poem. Perhaps, this is also the source of "Once Upon a Time Slow"——
I remember that when I was a teenager, everyone said sincerely that it was a sentence in the early morning. The long street in the railway station was dark and there were no pedestrians. The small shop selling soy milk was braving the heat. The lock looks good and the key looks exquisite. If you lock it, people will understand
The first time I watched "The Postman" was when I watched "Love Left, Love Right". In that movie, I mentioned the poem "Once Slowly", so I won't repeat it here. This time, it is especially suitable for watching behind "Sinking". After watching it, I remembered a lot of people in the movie. For example, the 1900 in "The Pianist on the Sea", the Rust in "Thunder in the Ground", and the old colonel in "Nobody Writes to the Colonel".
If the movie is a vote, then Massimo dedicated his vote to the communists and buried his rich legacy deeply under the ivory tower of communism on the sea. His bold and passionate pursuit of happiness and truth, as the subtitle says, is a public courtship event.
What is communism? Send letters in the morning, write poems in the afternoon, go to the kitchen before dinner, but don’t become postmen, poets and gourmets because of this. This lifestyle of removing the concept of work, getting rid of the division of labor, and completely ending the employment and employment relationship between people is Marx's definition of a communist society. What else can be explained? The passionate and infatuated "Postman" is a poem, and the sincere and shy Mario is a great and generous poet.
Holderlin said that the poet's vocation is to return to his hometown. Neruda said that the vocation of a poet is love, revolution, and exile. Mario said that the poet's vocation is to observe, think and aesthetics. In the words of "wet people" nowadays, PUA is training to lick dogs and pick up girls. Obviously, communism in the modern context has been farther and farther away from Marx's original conception of a communist society. For Mario or Massimo, this spring-blooming Italian town facing the sea is a temporary refuge and last reserve for communism.
But what surprised the "people" is that communism is actually very simple and very easy to realize. It is the sentimental exchanges between people. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. In fact, capitalism, which has always been eyeing the "people", has always been in a state of lobbying them. In the end, the communists were hunted down, the communist heritage was reclaimed, and the communist spirit was contaminated. These inevitable results over time are also the most sad passages for the "people" in the film.
But what's so regrettable? Communism has been realized ahead of time by the communists, and the poet has also heard clear and firm responses from each other in the short and lasting emotional interaction with the poet, right?
Really a lighthouse, it's an ivory tower.
What's in the ivory tower? Intuition and ideas. What is intuition? Children, women, and ancient people all have good instincts, which hurt later concepts. Therefore, Mu Xin advocated: to preserve the inner virginity, nobility, and purity.
Massimo used his noble life to practice: Instead of being a ignorant modern person, it is better to be a child who is thirsty for knowledge.
