There is an extraordinary stubbornness under her calm appearance, and she even contradicts the female person in charge of the film for a piece of clothing.
When she learned that the hero of the movie was her, the girl's shy instinct made her refuse to play with him, but she soon cooperated seriously.
In the same scene, he was obsessed with not sixty-five but twenty-five. Maybe he was deliberate. He could use the gap in the filming to talk to her a few more words. She kept her head down, noncommittal, no disgust, no joy. , Abbas even stingy with a close-up. When he said that as long as she flips the page gently, he would know what she was up to. She didn’t understand at first, and when the camera was about to start shooting, she speciously lifted the page. A corner.
In the same scene, she was obsessed with Hussein, so she was not Mr. Hussein. In the end, she did not give up her obsession. The local custom is that only the wife is called the husband husband. She is still awkward, even in the scene, she is unwilling. Scream.
The shooting is over. She took her flower and walked forward alone, Hussein chased after carrying a bucket. They walked through the olive groves and the zigzag paths in the fields. He kept talking, showing her his heart and drawing a beautiful "future" for her.
She just walked, did not stop, did not look back, but did not speed up.
He stopped on the hillside, watched her figure looming in the olive grove, and finally realized his reluctance, and ran down the mountain quickly.
He had never thought of blocking her way in front of him, but just followed blindly. To be sure, he said a lot to her again.
When the figure almost disappeared at the end of the field, she continued to move forward, but he ran forward quickly, and even forgot the way he came. Although the distance was far away, he could still see the brisk and excitement of his footsteps.
Although previous film critics thought that there was a suspense here, but I still think that she agreed. Only when he got an affirmative answer can his footsteps be so brisk. Going back to get the bucket is just a superficial narrative motivation arranged by the director. In fact, it is this superficial division that shows the actual fit.
If she refuses, with his persevering character, it is impossible to give up easily. He will definitely persevere until he gets the answer he wants.
Any boy who wants to pick up girls should watch this movie. Perhaps the focus is not on those candles and roses. The important thing is to use sincere hearts to outline the same future for each other.

    [Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival Screening] Five years ago, I watched this movie in the university club. It made me drowsy and could only say goodbye to Abbas. Now that I missed the exhibition this year in the Archives, I made up this film in Taipei. I felt boring and repeated filming, but today I watch it with gusto and I am moved by the actor's perseverance. I really like the long shot at the end. Surprised to recognize the hero of "Where is My Friend's Home"

    In addition to the fresh and unpretentious love, the movie can be regarded as Abbas's re-exposition of the boundary between virtual and real after "Close-up". At the end, the fascinating long-range lens adds vividness and romance to the humor caused by the indiscretion of reality and fiction. It is a scene I would imagine countless times when I climbed high places. At this moment, the lens replaced my gaze. Four and a half stars.
