burned the blue heart.
Because without you, you
have to build a prison for yourself- the rumors about the old Bush in the town of the
movie "Get Low"
are always divergent. Some people say that when Bush was young, he killed many people with his bare hands. Others said that he exchanged souls with the devil and became a cold-blooded animal who lived with the devil. The naughty children deal with the strange old man by throwing stones at the window from a distance, and the old man’s face is always hidden in the backlit darkness. What kind of face is that! Will it be a bit more devilish and sharper than Marlon Brando's face in "Apocalypse Now"? The camera slides from the leaf-filled forest to this wrinkled old face. He half-squinted his eyes and looked at the children's away backs. His eyes were half compassion, half the indifference that had been lonely for a long time, his face was the same as those. The old face is the same. Perhaps the life of aging is still far away from us, not enough to experience! But every nightmare wakes up in the same situation. The woman in white in the old man's dream was waiting at the end of the road, very strange.
The lonely old man woke up from the nightmare, sweating profusely, and got out of bed shaking tremblingly. He picked up the flashing oil lamp and walked to the barn. After talking about a mule, he fell asleep again in a corner wrapped in a quilt. , This mule is the only living thing around the old man. The nightmare gave Old Bush the idea of holding a funeral for himself. When negotiating the funeral with the funeral home, Bush put forward an incredible idea. He wants to hold a funeral for himself who is alive, and people from four counties all around come to the funeral party. As long as each person pays five yuan, he will have the opportunity to obtain the elderly's valuable real estate and inheritance rights to the woods. At this time, Bush’s young lover, Marty, returned to town. Bush, who was walking with Marty, seemed to be back in his youth, talkative and funny, just a faltering walk and a gray hair reminding the two of them in their twilight years. The good times are long gone. The list of the dead is getting longer and longer, and the rest of life is just waiting for the holder's name to be filled in one day. The former lover recalled the past, that heart that was born fragile only became frightened and helpless with age. Age tells himself, "I can't wait for anything anymore?" Only by closing my eyes and holding my breath can I experience that I am still alive, that I am alive from the short and ignorant time, and that the people around me have traveled far away. Even though Bush stayed in the same place all his life, he still moved forward, getting old step by step, step by step with nothing, and the dogs that accompanied him died of old age. Looking back, there were only unmanned and long and decadent trails. In the world around, no one is waiting! People always think that many things can be forgotten and start over, but this is just a kind of thinking, failure and self-deception. Only a little bit is forgotten, one-eighth of the exposed part of the water, and seven-eighths are still hidden in the depths of memory. In the dead of night, there is still a nightmare to remind myself that I have lost it and cannot make up for it. There are also black-and-white photos posted on the bedside to remind myself that the man is still staring with a smile on his face. Nothing can be completely forgotten, just like the old man occasionally hand-posting photos and whispering: "Are you still there...", he was still thinking of her for 40 years. The person in the photo is not Marty, so when Marty saw the photo, she turned away. The old man suddenly changed his mind after meeting Charlie, the pastor. He was no longer so sure, and he still had the courage to tell the story of his youth, even after so long. He spent 40 years in this prison built by himself, without marriage, wife, children, friends, grandchildren, and nothing. He built another church and put the soul in it, but he never took a step to redeem.
It is not difficult to state the facts, but the harder is whether you can forgive yourself while stating. Everything is not what the eyes can see, what can a dog dream about! You can make up a story that it is chasing a rabbit, but no one knows whether there is a rabbit there, and it can't tell you! Not many people can say their true thoughts unreservedly, so the surface can understand no more than the dream of a dog! Just as people know more about Bush than misunderstand. Every time the lens advances, it peels off the onion-like shell that wraps a person. Bush's body is not as good as each day, and there is another bad state between life and death, that is, one shortness of breath and one sudden turn around are accompanied by the torture before death. After the owner of the funeral home invited Pastor Charlie, the funny funeral party was held as scheduled. That day, there was a lot of traffic on the way to Bush's house. Everyone greeted each other, and the band put on a pose and played cheerful music. The old man stood on the stage hoarsely told about the burden he had carried for more than 40 years. He fell in love with Marty’s sister, a married woman. The two were discovered by her husband when they were about to elope. This led to the direct tragic death of the person in the photo. . Although the fault is not in me, it is because of me. If that doesn't happen, she should have gray hair now! In the sound effect, the noise of the crowd is processed, and only soothing music is left. The old man's heart has an unprecedented peace. Marty was also in a silent embrace, forgiving Bush, who was not far from death. The funeral is here again, instead of the rehearsal like the previous rehearsal, everything calms down. The woman in white waits silently at the end of the road, and the old man slowly steps on the "creaking" path, all the way forward. The soul finally rests in peace, without worry.
Although beautiful in every way, it is extremely desolate. Who can put emotions in loneliness and guilt for so long, every minute and every second for 40 years! We can't do it, so it's beautiful. Whether a relationship is right or wrong, whether it has results or not, whether it is sadness more than joy, whether it is wishful thinking or your heart, is beautiful. Even if losing you is to build a prison for yourself, so what?
