War can bring back many love achievements, but it does not include the story in this film. The female protagonist Nelly is not weaker than Mara in "Broken Blue Bridge", but she failed to have Roy's loyal love to Mara.
The tone and picture of the film are very similar to the "Eavesdropping Storm" that I have seen before, and both have a harsh and cold tone. Nelly's family died in the war, and she miraculously survived after being shot in the face in a Wisconsin concentration camp. My friend Lene hopes that Nelly can go to Palestine with herself to find a place where the Jews can live (it's ironic to think about the current Palestinian-Israeli conflict).
Nelly unrealistically wants to restore her previous appearance and persistently wants to find her former husband. In the ruins of post-war West Berlin, Nelly traveled through the night to do dangerous and worrying things. As a last resort, Lene could only tell Nelly that her husband had turned her back on her. However, this did not stop her determination.
The Chinese say, "What does it mean to make steel, turn it into softness". A woman who survived a concentration camp did not cherish her life for the sake of love. This world has never lacked infatuation who are deeply tortured by the heart, such as Adele Hugo.
Xu was obsessed with it, there must be an echo, Nelly still found her husband. The anxiety that had not fully recovered after the disfigurement made her retreat, and for the first time she ran away. Back to the bar for the second time, the husband who changed his name and no longer knew her took the initiative to talk to her. Because her husband thought his wife was dead, this woman who was "like" her wife could help him get the inheritance and compensation.
She tried to remind her husband again and again that she was not dead, but got a response of "Don't pretend to be Nelly, it's not me that you are deceiving".
Once her husband was the driving force for her to get out of the concentration camp alive, but now her husband clearly wants to use her to cheat money. She also felt that her husband loved "dead Nelly" and lived in self-righteous love. If you are a fan of the authorities, it is even more stupid to jump into the game by yourself.
The truth gradually emerged. Except for Nelly, who was unwilling to accept the facts, the audience understood that her husband was just an ordinary little person, possessing all the characteristics of an ordinary little person. He really loved Nelly before. In order to protect herself, he resolutely betrayed her in front of the Nazis. , The war is over, it is also true that I only want Nelly's money.
Lene's suicide note let Nelly finally learn that her husband divorced her before she was arrested.
The thing that made me feel the most in the film was the death of Lene. The Jews wanted to forgive the Germans and made her feel sick. During those war-torn years, the psychological trauma she suffered was not necessarily less than that of Nelly. Lene can only show her strength, because there is a more vulnerable Nelly that needs her to take care of.
She has nothing but Nelly. And she tried her best to save Nelly, choosing to stay stubbornly and forgive the German who hurt her instead of accompany her to Palestine. "I have nowhere to go."
Speaking of Auschwitz’s number, when her husband wanted to add that number artificially, she finally prepared to kill him with the gun as Lene said, but in the end she did not implement it.
Stepping off the train, everything proceeded according to the script. When she walked towards her husband, there was a strong heartbeat ups and downs in the background sound. Everything that follows seems to be performed in accordance with the script written by Nelly's husband.
"Before the birth of Christ, there was a stupid bird named Phoenix. Every few hundred years, it built a pile of firewood to self-immolate. It must be a first-class cousin of mankind. But every time it self-immolates, it jumps from the ashes. Come out and let yourself be born again. It seems that we are doing the same thing over and over again, but we have the same terrible ability that Phoenix does not have. We know the stupid things we have done. We know that we have done it for thousands of years. All the stupid things we have ever lived, and as long as we know this and keep it where we can see it at any time, one day we will stop stacking firewood and stop jumping into the fire."
I believe that the creation of this film was influenced by the monologue of "Fahrenheit 451." Nelly is not Adele Hugo, but a phoenix with human spirituality. The ending reached the climax of the film. She sang love appears gone...everything is ends too soon, revealing the concentration camp number on her arm. As the truth came to light, the back of her stepping out of the room gradually blurred under the dim light and shadow.
