This is probably the most wordless question for children to answer to their parents. In the past, I thought that only Eastern parents would work hard for their children. Western parents pay more attention to the independence of their children. Western individualism will also cause Western parents to be less "childlike" than Eastern parents. Obviously, I was wrong. After watching "Je vais bien, ne t'en fais pas" (I'm fine, don't worry).
The first time I noticed this Caesars Award movie was because of its poster. The girl on the poster reminds me of an Oriental girl on TV that I loved very much before. She was thin, sensitive, stubborn and strong. After looking for this film for a long time, I finally found it, and found that the heroine is much more beautiful than I thought, and she has a very good temperament, not like a 19-year-old adolescent girl, and then I found the original "Paris" She also played the beautiful female students. But also because she is beautiful and has such a good temperament, the whole movie dominated by her is also full of temperament.
The story is very old-fashioned, you can almost guess the ending after reading the beginning, but the French are really delicate, and when they use delicate brushstrokes to tell stories that are not new, they are particularly long and moving. The twin brothers suddenly ran away from home. There was no sign or news. Lily didn't think about eating and drinking, and was hospitalized on a hunger strike. In order to save his daughter, the father imitated his son's handwriting and sent postcards to his daughter from various cities in France. Lily, who "learned about the traces of my brother," began to eat and began to recover little by little. In fact, I guessed that these letters must have been written by Lily's father or mother at the beginning, but whenever Lily reads the content of his brother's hatred of his father, I don't believe it was written by his parents. I still don't know how delicate parents can love their children.
In the end, Lily’s boyfriend Tomas discovered the truth in the cemetery. Lily himself found Loic’s guitar in the garage. Tomas chose to hide it with her parents out of love for Lily, and Lily also kept her parents from mentioning what she had learned. the truth. A family of four walked out of the home full of suffocation and depression, putting aside the painful memories.
The atmosphere of the whole movie is a bit heavy and gray, but because all the heavy and gray is in the name of love, all distortions and pains become so precious. Lily’s disorder and life disorder are due to the love for twin brothers. I have no brothers or sisters, so I can’t appreciate the depth of this brotherhood. What's more, the twins have more tacit understanding than ordinary brothers and sisters and have accumulated a deeper understanding of each other. Love. Lily repeatedly yelled to his parents, he must be dead, otherwise he would not stop calling me. Losing one of the twins is like losing half of themselves. Perhaps in the twenty years of growing up, they have lived by relying on each other. After losing half of the body and soul, survival became so unsightly, so Lily chose to go on a hunger strike. This is indeed not a kind of rational behavior, but when it is, Lily, whose life track is completely disordered, has already lost all her thoughts and allows her reason to fall.
The parents' joint lies are out of love for their daughters. The loss of a son is already a huge pain, but the parents also know their feelings and do everything possible to hide their daughters. The father even travels to and from various cities and towns in France for his daughter’s life and body, imitating his son’s handwriting. The postcards that cursed oneself. He was afraid that lily would see through the lie, and he reflected on his son's debts when he was alive, "never heard him sing." A father who has worked hard for twenty-five years, bought a house, bought a car, supported a family of four, and met the material and spiritual needs of the whole family. He has done everything he can, but he still feels owed to his son, but There is no chance to make up for these debts. In each of the postcards, those dry tongues resemble a father's lonely confession. If you lose your son, you can no longer lose your daughter. Therefore, before the pain of losing their children has time to heal, they must concentrate on facing their daughter who is falling into disintegration day by day. And when the daughter was gradually recovering, she was careful not to let her discover any flaws, so after the father and daughter were riding bicycles, the father insisted on putting the car in the garage so that Lily could not see evidence that her son had passed away. The son died unexpectedly, the daughter was extremely angry at the parents' standing by, and missed the brother's hunger strike and gave up his life. This is almost the greatest misfortune a pair of parents can experience. But apart from the mother’s forbearing sad expression and the father’s pretending to be tough, the director did not show how painful and conspicuous they were. I didn’t understand how a pair of parents could continue their daily life with such calmness in the face of their son who had left suddenly. This is unimaginable for Eastern parents. If a Chinese parent discovers that his child is missing, he will have to dig three feet to find the child, and his entire life may be paralyzed. But unlike most Chinese parents, they have two children, so when one is away, they can't be in pain or cry. For the happiness of the other, they must live a normal life. They were just sitting in a suffocating room watching TV in a lonely night, and the two of them always had serious expressions and said nothing. Silence is the most difficult conflict to resist. All the pain and torture were highlighted one by one in the long silence that belonged to the parents. The same is true for parents in the East when facing family changes and pain, quietly leaving all the grief to themselves.
Lily is getting better and better. Her friend's boyfriend Tomas fell in love with her. He went to the hospital to see her, gave her books and birthday gifts, accompany her to drink, sent her home, found a house for her, took her to the New Year party, and his girlfriend separate. But lily refused to accept this feeling. During the vacation, she sat lonely on the beach where Loic sent a postcard, listening to the CD recorded by Loic in her ears. And he found her by the sea. Later, it was the same as all love stories, but the love here was more silent. Lily found out the fact that her father had written the postcard for her and fell on Tomas's shoulder, crying with a little bit of hatred and gratitude. He just comforted her, but didn't ask much. When Lily gradually admitted that Loic had left her life, it was Tomas who gave her the strength and courage to continue. Her father made this process slow and painless, and the man let her continue her young and hot life. It's all in the name of love. Even after discovering the truth, Tomas thought it was absurd but still kept the secret, it was love to tell him to do so.
Lily, who is surrounded by pain and love, also cherishes deep love and gratitude to her parents. What was touched was that Lily told her mother that she already knew that after her father wrote the postcard on her behalf, the family of three hugged each other, and relieved her pain, resentment, and incomprehension for more than a year. After discovering the truth about Loic's death, Lily chose to remain silent, and the three of them worked hard to maintain the lies they knew well, for the sake of love for each other. Their love is so silent, but it is more powerful than all words and speeches, making the viewer unable to control and fall into a long silence. In the end, the family left the home full of unfortunate memories and yearned for a new life and a new life. There was nothing to take away from the home of twenty years, except love.
You ask me how deeply I love you? In many cases, silence can represent my heart.
