Before watching this movie, I knew it wouldn't be amazing. But I still watched it. And look carefully. Just like countless times of love, I know it's just a dream or an illusion, but I'm still addicted to it, and I can't extricate myself. Just like I know that life is meaningless, but I still exist in a high-sounding manner, running ups and downs in the world.
Such self-deception is a shame and a redemption.
Just like the movie itself, in a very realistic, very honest, very real form, trying to uncover such a grand theme of love. The director's motivation is very honest, he must hope to find the true answer to "what is love" in such a concise form; the heroine's exploration is also very real, and her exploration journey is also the love journey of many people; but The answers and results of her exploration are also very realistic. The reality actually allows us to find the answers in our own stories without having to watch the movie at all.
So, it's a movie that anyone can make. Anyone can be the heroine Yi Shuling. So the heroine doesn't matter at all. What matters is the people interviewed: gentlemen playing pool, kids in the park, gay men, old couples who stick together. . . . . . and many more. Their words are the most incisive and true love summary. The amazing thing is that even though the truths and feelings of all love are similar, each person's love has its own smell, shape and color. These unique memories and histories can only be obtained if you actually experience them yourself.
Therefore, the love realized in fairy tales, movies, novels, paintings, and music does not belong to you. The love that fascinates you is nothing but an aesthetic fantasy. Including your own love, in your continuous time journey, after you have exhausted your youth and passion, the truth you finally get is just an illusion.
The only essential difference is that in the face of such an illusion, before the age of 25, you will be deeply immersed in it because of blind longing and a moth to the fire; after the age of 25, you will be sober and forbearing because of your mature experience. The hallucinations were disillusioned, and then he left quietly. This is the huge price we pay for love.
So, don't think that those lovers who once made you unforgettable are your true love. Because when you, like the gentleman who played billiards with Yi in the film, fell into the river and was dying, you may have forgotten the face of the person you love, but the one who has lived with you the longest. people. Your wife, your husband, your children. . . . . .
Everyone will have a certain level of love at some point in time. But only if you love to the end, will you finally believe that loneliness is the ultimate destination in life. Love is nothing but an attempt to avoid loneliness. Trying can only give experience, but it cannot guarantee a happy ending. Therefore, those solemn love hymns are sometimes lies. A beautiful lie. like religion. Just like you believe in Shakyamuni or Jesus, if you believe in them, they are your gods, and if you don’t believe in them, they are nothing.
Remember, love, religion, and politics are the three greatest lies of mankind. Love is the most beautiful lie, religion is the most ridiculous lie, and politics is the most hypocritical lie.
However, I finally decided to accept these lies. Because, the motives and intentions of all lies are good. They are all trying to redeem humanity. Love tries to redeem people's loneliness, religion tries to redeem people's beliefs, and politics tries to redeem people's disorder. Despite the fact that these redemptions do not completely solve the problem, at least they bring a lot of comfort. Love gives people company, even if it is only a short ride; religion builds belief, even if belief is nothing; politics gives order to the world, even though the order is full of exploitation and chaos. . . .
In this way, you can get the best attitude of love: no matter how beautiful it looks, you clearly know it is just a lie, when you are in it, enjoy it, and when you wave goodbye, understate it. Do not give it supreme meaning. Don't take it as your ultimate destination.
In this way, it is not "Origami Heart". In this way, the heart will not be a fragile, broken piece of paper. Because it is not the heart that is as fragile as paper, but only love.
