Toss arrogantly when you are young, and calmly and settle down when you are old. On the other hand, which one is more difficult?

Because I am learning French, I have been habitually "not mindful" when watching movies about France recently, and only pay attention to pick up language points. When I saw this one, I was ready again. When the protagonist speaks, he is relieved, speaking English, that's great, you can enjoy the movie a little bit! O(∩_∩)O (but because of the sensitivity of language learning

, I picked up more than a dozen language-point notes, temporarily called "learning occupational disease") After reading the synopsis, I thought to myself, I It is necessary to watch this movie in line with the purpose of learning "how to seduce Zhengtai elegantly". But after reading it, another question aroused my curiosity. Which is more interesting to choose between being arrogant when you are young and being calm and settled, or vice versa?

The protagonist told us that when he was young, he was tossing arrogantly, and he might not even reach the old one, so he ended up in confusion. The heroine tells us that when she gets old, she really gets involved in the emotional vortex, which is likely to cause the inexplicable fear of aging to rise suddenly (just for the heroine, not necessarily for others). I was planning to accumulate some wisdom before and willing to grow old so gracefully, just affirming my own happiness. But with such a young boy by your side, you start to regard his affirmation of your charm as the highest indicator. Humans cannot fight against the ways of nature, time is passing, this kind of effort will only become more and more powerless. After going around, he still has to start from material comfort (such as buying a big ring in the movie, buying oil stocks, doing business, etc.), and step by step back to affirm his own happiness from the heart.

But ah, though, feelings are not about trading or playing Go, so how can we plan to clear every step in the morning? Just like what the film said, "After you start to taste the taste of youth, you want to keep going back and taste it." It's hard to extricate yourself after entering. So emotional matters are harder? So it needs greater wisdom to settle it? So, even if we have the same aptitude inside and outside of us, we shouldn’t get in there even if we have the opportunity?

Every time I face the love in many movies that use my whole life to love deeply, I think in my heart, "Don't come to me." I know they are so beautiful, but I really know that I don't have the ability to parry. Alas~ Too grand love is just like Jintao's life, there is really no wisdom to digest. I'm afraid I will choke to death.

Chéri quotes

  • [last lines]

    Narrator: He was unable to suppress a sense that he had been able to escape from something. That he was a free man again. A feeling he eventually came to realize was entirely misguided. It was many years before he understood that both of them had been quite unjustly punished. Léa for being born so many years before him, and Chéri for having failed to grasp that Léa was the only woman he would ever be able to love. And once he was settled in his mind that this was the case, he took out his old service revolver, and put a bullet in his brain.

  • Lea de Lonval: You came back here and you found an old woman. Yes, you found an old woman. Don't cry. Why are you crying? I'm so grateful to you. Were you really in love with me? Did you really think I was such a good person? If I had been a truly good person, I'd have made a man of you instead of thinking of nothing but your pleasure and my happiness. I wouldn't have kept you all to myself. Look at me. You're right. The qualities you lack, I expect it is my fault. But 30 years of easy living does make you very vulnerable. So no, I never did talk to you about the future. Forgive me. I loved you as if we were going to die the same day. I carried you in my heart for such a long time. I forgot you were going to have to carry your own burdens. A young wife. Perhaps even a child. And so you're going to suffer. You're going to miss me. And you're going to have to try to find enough wisdom and tolerance not to cause suffering to others. The thing is, now you've had a taste of youth. It's never satisfying, but you'll always want to go back for more. You must go. I love you. But it's too late. So get dressed. And go away now.
