The end of life

Everything you lose will be the notes under your fingertips, and she will always be your breath and sigh.

The first thing that attracted me to this movie was the poster: a violin, two people, and the distant mountains of Han Dai. Any love story, if you want to resonate, must add regret, and this one is no exception. At the beginning, a middle-aged man described as haggard was scolded by his disappointed and tired wife because of his family difficulties. If it wasn't for him to go to buy a piano by car, no matter how he looked at it, he would feel that he was just a husband who had accomplished nothing and was unwilling to take on family responsibilities. It doesn't matter if he doesn't work or is too lazy to take care of the children. After the courage he finally mustered in life was dispelled by the sound of the inferior piano, he simply lay down on the bed: I want to die! As the plot turns, flashbacks begin. It turned out that he was also a young man in fresh clothes and an angry horse, and was known as the greatest musician in the world. What made him fall into this field? The answer: regrettable love and forced marriage. The poor boy's marriage is rejected, and the life of his parents kills a happy marriage. This kind of drama is not only staged in China. finally. He was taken away by the god of death and left this world unworthy of nostalgia.

The film editing technique is interesting, and it also mixes fantasy elements. I am impressed by the following places:

1. The protagonist's youngest son is a cute comedy character. His father is imitating Socrates to teach him and his sister the truth. He suddenly gasped and covered his mouth and snickered. However, he was also kind and prayed for his father while his mother and sister slept. The camera cuts from the first two dark, icy rooms to his room, where the lights are dim and the atmosphere is warm.

2. Just joined the teacher, the protagonist was criticized by the master: first-class skills, no music. He was too young to capture the sigh of life. And after his heart was broken, the phrases he played became real music and won the praise of the masters. He lost his lover and made art. Defects sublimated his artistic career.

3. Years later, Yilan (his lover) met him on the street, his voice trembled and he called her name, she turned back with a look of indifference: I really have no impression. They turned and walked in opposite directions, and around the corner, she burst into tears.

I will always remember you, but I don't know you anymore.

Goodbye, my unrequited love.
