——But one day, for an old man in his sixties, a miracle really happened: the lonely old man went to the vegetable market again according to the daily procedure to make routine preparations for a person’s lunch. Suddenly he passed by the public phone When it rang, he looked around in confusion, walked into the phone booth hesitantly, and picked up the receiver, but the other end suddenly hung up. Someone made a mistake, or someone made fun of the poor old man. He put down the phone, his eyes fell on a small red tin box next to the phone. For a moment he was a little confused. He gently stroked it and opened it. Suddenly he burst into tears, which was the most in his childhood fifty years ago. Beloved toys, a little man riding a red motorcycle, an intricate little house, and black and white photos of the stars he admires. After passing through the 50-year time tunnel, the childhood time came back all at once. What a comfort to a lonely old man, this box means the best time in his life, his family, and his meticulous collection. Favorite. He murmured: I met an angel, I met an angel. This day changed the old man. He and his daughter who hadn't spoken for 20 years took the initiative to fix it, and finally he could share the family relationship with his beloved grandchildren.
—— On the same day, the blind man playing old records begging at the subway station, when he stood blankly on the side of the road, tentatively stepping out his feet to the subway station, when he started his gloomy day, suddenly he had a pair of gentle hands Switching his arms and walking quickly across the street, a brisk young female voice told him that he was passing by the brightly colored coffee shop that had just been renovated, new beautiful toys were placed in the glass windows of the street, and the flowers in the flower shop were still there. With the dewdrops exuding the lovely fragrance of the morning, the old man seemed to have seen, touched, and smelled all the beautiful and novel things prepared for him in this world. At the entrance of the subway station, the girl was gone. The old man was in a dream. Two minutes seemed to make him go through a lifetime. He raised his head to the sky: Thank God, I saw an angel.
Of course, you know, the angel is Emily, a girl with an angel-like beautiful face and a kind heart. This childhood lacked fatherly love, never went to school, had no friends, no lovers, lonely and even a little surly girl, everything was changed because she accidentally found the small tin box hidden in the wall by the previous landlord. The comfort brought by secretly returning this iron box to the dying old man made her realize how much joy a small change will bring to people's lives. So, a flash of inspiration, Emily, who was once a little lonely She became an angel for the blind, and later she became an angel for all neighbors. She forged a letter that she received forty years from the coffee shop proprietress who worked as a part-time worker, and asked the unwary who had left her 40 years ago to confess his betrayal and confide in his thoughts; The disgusting bachelor became tender and sweet, and broke out a huge energy love with the old pearly, somewhat neurotic cigarette seller; her carefully recorded video tapes downstairs bones are as fragile as mud, and they have not gone out for decades. The old painter brought new feelings and new inspirations to the world, allowing him to re-examine the unchanging paintings for decades, and endow the people in the paintings with the ability to love; Emily even stole the little girl made by her father who lived alone. Puppet, this red Santa Claus entrusted his love and longing for his deceased wife. He traveled around the world and sent him pictures in Moscow, the United States, and Cambodia. He was puzzled and helpless until he finally agreed. This is the best commemoration of the dead wife and the time that has passed. Therefore, he also listened to his daughter’s advice, packed his bags, said goodbye to isolation and loneliness, had fun, and embarked on the journey; my favorite is Emily’s acting as punishment. The story of the evil angel. She cannot tolerate the arrogance, selfishness and insult of the mentally handicapped helpers of the vegetable shop owner. She sneaked into his home and set up clever little traps. Watching the vegetable shop owner awakened by the alarm clock at four in the morning, he couldn't find the door handle of the bathroom, brushed his teeth with the shaver as toothpaste, and stood sleepily on the dark street like a fool. I couldn't help being stuck in the sofa. Laughing. How long has it been since movies have brought me such pure joy?
The changes brought to others' lives eventually changed Emily's life, and the power of love is also shaping Emily. A strange missing photo album helps Emily find love. After the mysterious and romantic search, love is like everyone else, with small twists and turns, sweet suspicions, but finally, the two young people kissed. At the moment of kissing, all the music and sound ceased, and everything was silent. What a wonderful moment, it reminded me of the beautiful black and white close-up of Binoche in "The Humble Blood".
Emily finds love, and the angel becomes an ordinary girl. Maybe you will say, look, this is life, the real life, and the suspicion of love, the breakup of a woman who sells cigarettes and a bachelor. Originally, from the strange birth of Emily, to those gorgeous colors, the lens's wonderfully and gorgeous pushing, pulling, rotating and deforming, the body is committed to the water when disappointed, and other exaggerated whimsical ideas, as well as the chattering narration, the director Just telling people that this is just a beautiful and unreal story, and it can't be true. But I really hope and believe that Emily who has love is still that lovely angel, because the heart that has been opened to love is hard to close. The director Jean-Pierre Gennet is just telling us the simple fact that love makes people smart, as smart as angels, and only love can be exchanged for love. Doesn't Emily remind you of your passion? Being extremely smart for the one you love, eloquent and whimsical, will make every moment of two people romantic and warm like heaven? When the vegetable shop owner goes to sleep soundly, the mentally handicapped guy will have such a bright smile and considerate behavior? With love for life and for others, the mediocre ugly duckling will also become a smart and beautiful white swan.
So, tonight, let us temporarily put aside Hou Xiaoxian’s heaviness and Tarkovsky’s melancholy, and only experience the joy that pure images bring us, feel the power of wonderful love, and have another teenage dream, letting angels enter Our dreamland.
