For spiritual pursuits, men and women may have different degrees of attachment

It's rare to finish watching a good movie.
There is a period of "Xiao Song Qi Tan" talks about national leaders. It is talked that male leaders may be more rational, and they may bargain when encountering bottom-line problems. Female leaders are often paranoid and insist on their own "ism". There are tough Margaret Thatcher, unmarried Park Geun-hye, Taiwan leader Tsai Ing-wen and so on.
The protagonist of the movie divorced the Jewish heroine because of the war, reported her badly, and even tried to defraud her of her fortune after the war; but the heroine has been unaware of her arrest after being arrested, and the old love wants to return to the protagonist, even for a time. Want to resume the previous life, until she knows these truths.
I have to admit that in real life, there is indeed the idea that "husband and wife are birds of the same forest and fly separately in the face of disaster", but I think the difference between people and birds is at least a little bit of faith and persistence in faith.
Feel it and encourage yourself.
I like to watch feature films of World War II (non-war films). Many stories before and after the war expose humanity, which would not appear in the peaceful era.

    "Phoenix" implies a discussion of "performance". From the surface to the inner layer, there are three dimensions: deductive wife-survivor-wife (the actors themselves are not involved here, and Casavicz only has two dimensions). This dimension should have a sense of fluidity in the evolution of the plot, but except for the end, the sense of fluidity is too weak at other times. Only the last chromatic passage of the whole movie shows that Petzold’s ambiguity in constructing identity and subject in all works Aesthetic driving force.

    {★★★★} The war changed this woman. When I say change, I don't mean just her devastated face or spirit, but her place that's been erased forever. After returning, she refilled the blank that had been idle for her for a long time, but she could not help but tolerate the environment, nationality, social circle, and the faces of old people who were forced to bond after the fragmentation. Christian Petzold doesn't add much subjective commentary to the heroine's futile wandering, but just silently records what she does as she fumbles through the irreversible time scars, until all the clues come together in a torrent, muted out of focus. It's a curtain that falls before the break, and the movie stops there only because it can. We don't know what will happen to them in the next moment, but from the beginning the film only asks questions, not answers.
