This is a very typical narrative mode in Hollywood. "Song for My Wife" won the Best Screenplay Award at the 2013 Beijing International Film Festival, which actually disappointed me a bit. Because it is too well-established, although it is in an emotional movie, it cuts in from the perspective of the emotional life of the elderly, and it is indeed very humanistic. "Song for My Loved Wife" tells the story of a stubborn old man Arthur who is not good at expressing his emotions. For the wish of his beloved wife in the last period of his life, his mentality changed from self-imprisonment to opening his heart. A single-clue drama, some people describe it as a tearjerker, let us also experience the touching part. Traditional Chinese education has always made me think that only if the elderly can have grandchildren and children around their knees can they enjoy family happiness. And the old people in the chorus in the film are all trying to live out their wonderful self. What a lovely and bold attempt to choose a song that celebrates sex during a competition, I am in awe of their love and respect for life compared to actively living and reluctantly accepting old age and death. It turns out that life in old age can be so easy and happy. Looking at love again, maybe all couples who are in love hope that as time goes by, they will still reap the benefits of each other and grow old together. Although Arthur, who loves his wife so much, is so inhumane and hard to melt with his son, as a husband, he is careful and considerate and takes care of Marianne meticulously. This may be the difference between the love stories of the elderly and ordinary love movies. Usually when we watch love movies, most of the contradictions and conflicts in it are inspired by the external environment and objective conditions, to test how steadfast the love of the hero and heroine is, without regrets in life and death. It is difficult to encounter similar experiences in real life, just as we know that we will never stand on the Titanic and you will dance, and we have no family conflicts that force both of us to commit suicide. Sacrifice for love is of course valuable in a passionate love affair, but after living together for decades, there is no hormone-secreting adrenaline for the two lovers, and mutual understanding and tolerance are even more rare. In the real world, people often face conflicts of their own, personality, habits, etc. When introversion meets cheerfulness, seriousness meets optimism, and how two completely different people persevere is the biggest issue of love. Be true to yourself, and love will last forever. Pretending is too tiring to last a lifetime. Marianne sang in the preliminaries: Seeing you as you are, I love you for that. Love is not forcing the other person to change for yourself, but the greatness of love lies in being willing to change yourself for the other person. Unfortunately, we always lose when we find out that we could have done better. God took Marian, but Arthur was able to stand on the stage and close his eyes The eyes sing for the beloved wife: We will always leave the world, the lullaby will not stop, just like you and me, we will never be separated. Love is the pill that you put in your mouth every time, the warm bag you pour into boiling water every night, the courage to say I love you, the way to let go of your self-esteem and say sorry for you, and the opening of your heart to be braver. If you love her, sing a song for her, when she can still hear it, tell her softly, hold you in my arms, I still miss you so; tell her that if God gives me a good voice, I will only be there for you singing. Love is in my heart and never leaves...
