The director in the film is like Antonioni himself, squinting his eyes as if analyzing the tones and brushstrokes of the painting, and pressing the shutter behind the lens. Picture by picture, spell out the ukiyoe of the emotional world.
There is a sentence in the remake of the untouchable lover trailer: How do you hold on to someone you've never met?, here seems to be a question: How do you love someone you have never met?

Before telling the first story, the director of the play said: "The hardest thing is to fall into darkness and silence... In the darkness, reality is lit. In the silence, external sounds gradually penetrate.", Just like the sound of a loud sound, the shape of an elephant, and the darkness and silence, we can learn to discern and listen. The first story is like silent murmurs between lovers. Only at the end of this story does the soundtrack sounded for a few minutes, mostly silent. Starting from the brief encounter between Carmen and Shifanu, because of love, thousands of thoughts influence their actions and language. When a single word is used to summarize a look and a word, their love is in our language. lost life. When Carmen and Shi Fanu met for a short time, the kiss was the highest point of emotion, and it was also an eternal moment. Back at the hotel, the two sets of shots followed the actions of the male and female protagonists, in that silence. , The numerous thoughts flow in the space. Then the relationship came to an abrupt end. When meeting again by chance, Carmen said: Nothing is accidental, the film omits the process of searching hard in the romance story, and highlights the two people meeting again. This is not an accidental meeting, it is just desire and no. Satisfaction, the hope that emotions have a destination, invisibly drove the two to come together again. What they yearn for this time is physical contact. This relationship is no longer pure and pure, but no matter what kind of thoughts are flickering in their minds, in the end, their skin-to-skin touches are stroking through a layer of air. , This scene also appeared in "Madison Bridge" ("Covered Bridge Last Dream"). Although the relationship in "Madison Bridge" lasted only eight days in a lifetime, it was a lifetime. The most clear and certain thing, and this scene also appeared after Fasica left the note that symbolizes her affection, and it also foreshadows the difficult decision she finally chose to leave, but the original appearance of love will be forever Leave. In "Days on the Clouds", this group of shots is even more meaningful. Here, regardless of whether the relationship (not the relationship) ends with Shi Fanu's departure, at least he chooses to leave before love is mixed with unknown desires. It's like Carmen longs for Shi Fanu's words and words to leave traces of love, but like the last paragraph of the male protagonist said: What would happen if I said I fell in love with you, and the heroine said: It's like Light candles in a bright room. Everything has appeared silently. Any footnote for love, including desire to have, is tantamount to superfluous. Love should not be fake.
In the last paragraph, everything happened on the way to the church, passing several pools along the way. The water symbolizes desire. The protagonist stopped by the pool several times to quench his thirst by scooping the water, or floating on the water with his hands, and pious. The young girl just draws holy water in the church and crosses her chest. What this girl attracted to the male protagonist was her hopeless and satisfied look. This is one of the rare behaviors in the world. During the debate on desire and satisfaction on the road, the girl said: I want to escape from the flesh, the flesh One of the disadvantages is too much desire. However, the satisfied girl, when she walked out of the church alone, stopped by a pool, or even waited, waiting for the man to catch up with her. On the way back, a carnival team whizzed past them. This team Like the left evidence of a man having fun in time, followed by a downpour, the girl fell on the slippery road, which is nothing more than a wake-up call to desire. Similarly, when the girl finally entered the house and the man followed him, there was a piece of music. When the man asked: Will I still see you tomorrow, the girl replied with a smile: Tomorrow I will go to the monastery to become a monk.
Compared with the first paragraph, this is a short but clear love like the dew. There is no physical contact between the male and female protagonists. The girl clearly knows the man’s mind, but just like she compares with a candle, love Not between words, when she was willing to stop for him, she had already revealed her heart, and then there seemed to be a hint of joy in her laughter. In the last paragraph, the director ends with a purely spiritual love, but I don't think it is directly referring to the uncleanness of the flesh, but to express that people's pursuit of desire and satisfaction has obscured the original feelings of perfection. Just like the two paragraphs in the middle, one is carnal desire as a compensatory act for atonement after the killing of the father, and the other is love being replaced by desire to possess, and the attachment has long been not the soul of the two.
It is not precise to distinguish by four-part stories. The girl who tried to lie on the rails, the old man painting in the mountains and his confidant, and the long shot before the end of the screen, everyone in each room is a story. , Are all part of love sentient beings. Only by immersing in the darkness can one glimpse where the light source flickering in the dark comes from.
