Cherish dreams

I still remember the blind colonel in "Scent of a Woman", violent and arrogant but exuding elegance and wisdom deep in his bones everywhere. He arrogantly clings to his last trace of dignity, and his charm is hidden behind the godless eyes, every second It's sinking.
Then, I saw the blind diplomat played by Ralph Fiennes. He is an Englishman, with the forbearance and calmness of a British gentleman. He is different from the passion of Al Pacino Italian men, but reveals casual warmth in apathy. If Al is the hot summer sun, then Ralph must be warm in winter. The sunlight was shocked by the former and melted by the latter.
I like this character with little selfishness. Ralph's white suit resembles JB's handsome look in Sherlock Holmes, and the sculpted tough side makes people involuntarily intoxicated. Of course, this is not the only one. In fact, I was moved by his dream.
Who said that what he saw was the truth? When he closed his eyes, the world in his mind became wider. He couldn't see before his eyes, but there was another perfect world in his heart.
Because there is a dream, there is hope. After losing everything, he still does not give up, even if his life ends in the next second, at this moment, he still retains the beauty of the last treasure. A hundred people have a hundred completely different peach blossoms in their hearts. What belongs to him is an elegant life of isolation, singing and dancing.
Perhaps 99.9% of dreams cannot be realized, just like the happy fairy tale where the hero and heroine escapes hand in hand during the war, it will always only exist in the imagination of the world, but everyone deserves at least one incredible dream. The ups and downs are part of life, and so is the future. Since life is not destined to be smooth sailing, why not give yourself a little hope in the leisure of the sunset, dreams can not be realized, but it always gives people happiness that does not exist.

  • Todd Jackson: She is the countess Sofia Alexeyevna Belinskaya. She has everything that I wanted for this place. She has the allure, the tragedy, the weariness. She knows that history has no place for her kind anymore. She is perfect. My centre piece.
