"Nono..."




When Shelly spit out his own nickname for Leia with a lingering tongue: when Leia looked at this young and melancholy Shelly lazily Leaning against the door, breathing white smoke, and leaving: When Leia bought an expensive green ring out of anger when she heard that Shelly was about to marry a young, beautiful girl: When Shelly saw no news for a long time When Leia came back, she breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth that he didn't even notice: When. . . . . . I found that I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. I like this movie.

I love the confidence, elegance that oozes from the heroine's gestures.
I like her dedication to love.
I like her indifferent personality to everything.



It is worth mentioning that I am very satisfied with the shooting effects and scenes of this film. Especially, when I saw the flowery courtyard, I could not wait to jump in. . . Oh, of course, that's just another story. And the colorful clothes.

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.
