With some movies, it takes a long time from hearing to anticipation to meeting the final love.
Right time, right mood, right movie. The fit of the gears sometimes requires fate.
Without Adele, I don't think I would have liked this movie - "The Adele Hugo Story" - a movie about a woman who is crazy about love, a story about giving up her dignity, leaving her hometown, and pursuing love .
However, in my opinion, this is not just a love story, more precisely, it is a woman's inner struggle and desire, a person's unremitting pursuit of his own independence.
Adele, Hugo's youngest daughter.
She has a father like a great mountain, so before her name, there will be another person's name, which will never be forgotten.
Leo, Adele's older sister.
She died of drowning at the age of 19, and her husband who loved her so much died. This is another peak in Adele's life, the peak of love, despite all the hardships, it cannot be overcome.
Little Adele, sensitive Adele, Adele who wants to be loved.
She lost herself in this great, legendary shadow.
When her sister died, she became the only daughter in the family.
Love finally fell on her.
But is it real?
What people can't forget is Leo, who had perfect love but left early. Her relics—beautiful clothes, her death—deadly indulge in perpetual envy and jealousy, all turned into a nightmare for her sister.
Adele, Adele
is a man's daughter, an unloved daughter.
It's like a trace that can be erased at any time.
She wants to identify herself and find herself
"It's incredible, a young girl who has traveled across the ocean, from her hometown to a whole new world, just to be with her lover, I can do it."
This is her The declaration of her is her expression of her own strength, and love is just the carrier of this journey.
After a long, persistent pursuit, she was finally swallowed by her own mad, unanswered love.
So, in a distant country, when she passed by the person she loved, she no longer recognized him.
At the end of the film, after a long period of losing her soul, she is finally buried next to her father.
A legend that has disappeared in history can only feel beautiful and less sad when viewed from a distance.

Go back and talk about my favorite Adjani.
"The Adele Hugo Story", "Rodin's Lover", "Queen Margot".
Three movies, three beautiful and crazy women.
Some people say that Adjani is a true actress and always plays the same type of marginalized women.
If you look at it from another angle, maybe, there are really few people who can play such a role except Adjani.
One time I took a night train from Beijing back to Taiyuan, and read Sanlian Weekly in the middle of the night, one of which introduced a famous photographer who passed away. He had a beautiful, near-perfect older sister who went mad at a very young age. This is a deep-rooted memory for the photographer, so the themes he pursues throughout his life are beauty and madness.
Perhaps, this is really an eternal proposition.
And Adjani was sent by God to interpret this proposition.
In 1974, the year before the filming of "The Adele Hugo Story," Truffaut wrote to Adjani: "You are an extraordinary actress. Except for Jeanne Moreau , I've never been so eager to have a face fixed on film..." "Your face alone can tell a moving story, your gaze alone can create a dramatic atmosphere. You can even act A film without a storyline is a documentary about you that will rival any feature film."
I think that's the highest compliment a director can give an actor.
It is also the most extreme evaluation of Adjani.
