Twenty-five years later I will be you w

Can't write a short comment.

The image of the Cloud of Maloja runs through, seemingly true and illusory, and erratic. It is not only the unwillingness of Mary who is no longer young to grasp the tail of youth and indulging in the glory of the years, but also the insecurity of encountering the crisis of middle age.
The form of the play in the play, while giving the story a deep level, allowed the three female characters to have an interesting "dual role substitution" and observe each other, deriving a richer emotional expression.

There are many disputes about the two roles in the play, and most of them are considered from their own standpoint. I personally agree with the director’s view of the play: Helen and Sigrid are the same person (after Shaoguang is no longer the same person), they are not the same person ( Different desires).

Maria was Sigrid 25 years ago, will she still be 25 years later?
Obviously, Maria herself thinks so, so she strongly rejects Helen's role.
Especially in the interaction with Valentin, he was aggressive and oppressive, so Valentin finally left (meaning "suicide").

But in reality, everything around reminds her that she has become Helen, whether it is incomprehensible sci-fi movies, popular pop idols that are incomprehensible, or the current world that Maria has been far away from ( Or reality), which is why Valentine would say "a sense of distance from you".

In the end, it was Sigrid who woke her up—Valentine’s departure and Ellis’ refusal—he was indeed no longer Sigrid, but he did not necessarily become Helen—not toward self-destruction, but to compromise with the new world. (Accept the invitation of science fiction movies), even if they don't agree.

    In 88/100, the stage and the film blended in the time roulette, giving birth to a triple mirror structure, Sigurd and Helena, like two ends of time, the snake of Maloya hovering high in the sky, carrying the flow of time to the worst. era. The female typical Maria is on the stage, staring at eternity at a glance.

    The place of unknown beauty also makes the scenes in the scenes mysterious when creating blurred spectacles.

Clouds of Sils Maria quotes

  • Christopher Giles: Tastes can get worn out, kind of like desire.

  • Maria Enders: [Referring to the proposed role of Helena] Time's gone by and she can't accept it. Me neither, I guess.

    Klaus Diesterweg: There is no antagonism. It's the attraction of two women with the same wound. Sigrid and Helena are one and the same person. One and the same person. That's what the play's about. And because you were Sigrid, only you can be Helena now.

    Maria Enders: How can you be so sure?

    Klaus Diesterweg: You know as well as I do that Wilhelm Melchior had been working on a sequel for years.

    Maria Enders: Yes. But it was about Sigrid at 40 years old.

    Klaus Diesterweg: No, it was about Sigrid 20 years later became Helena.

    Maria Enders: So who's going to play Sigrid?

    Klaus Diesterweg: Jo-Ann Ellis. She did a superhero movie that just opened in the States.

    Maria Enders: And besides that?

    Klaus Diesterweg: Not much. She's 19. She's a lot more interesting that her interviews and profiles. She has a theatrical background. She doesn't want to be swallowed up by Hollywood. She admires you and is willing to pull out of her other commitments.

    Maria Enders: I'll listen carefully. But to be honest, the role scares me. Helena scares me. I'm in the middle of a divorce. I feel alone, and vulnerable. Probably too vulnerable to do this.

    Klaus Diesterweg: If you refuse, I'll understand, but it will be a missed opportunity, especially for Wilhelm.

    Maria Enders: I should get going.

    Klaus Diesterweg: Excuse me, but I won't be staying for dinner. Good evening madam.

    Maria Enders: Klaus, I have another reason. Susan Rosenberg. She played Helena with me.

    Klaus Diesterweg: I remember Susan Rosenberg.

    Maria Enders: She died in a car accident a year after. It's a superstition; I've always associated her death with Helena's suicide.

    Klaus Diesterweg: She was a lousy actress who didn't understand a thing about the role. And her conventional style of acting highlighted the modernity of your performance. You should be grateful to her.
