the first ten minutes of the film, when Joel came to Montauk with his inexplicable mood, the overall tone of the picture was melancholy blue, whether it was snow, sea, The train has always been given the color of loneliness, desolation, and forgotten elements or the protagonist Joel's gray-based clothes, all expressing his depression and loss.
Then Clem appeared, the orange-red shirt, appeared in Joel's world like a ray of sunshine. This should be the first topic in the film. The spotless mind is his disappearing mind about that love memory. At this time, Clementine's appearance was the sunshine, he thought it was erased but still there, and it was still very bright when he met again.
Only when I met Joel again, the woman whose hair color changed again and again and her face was always cold and hard seemed to regain her anger. She dealt with him like a little girl, smiled at him, introduced herself, and approached him on excuses. Then she invited him to her home, and the two of them drank and chatted. She naturally leaned on him and asked if he would like it. Willing to marry her. If you put aside the memory, this is indeed the first meeting of two people, but the influence of the dark thread of fate still makes them feel familiar.
When the two met on the beach of Montauk, Joel sighed at the beach, "Sand is just some small stones." Fine sand is often metaphorized by creators as remembering details and passing things; the two talked to the train on the way home Above, like fine sand, the train also has a special meaning, and is often given the concept of time by the creator. It seems that the two of them have begun to find the memory of love in the back of time.
Joel is stunned. He is a timid, sensitive, mediocre man with a three-point line of life. Clem is passionate, different and fickle. Two people with very different personalities are bound to have countless frictions and differences when living together for a long time. But, they complete each other. They are a pair in the dark, so when Clem gets in Joel's car, the hue gradually warms, and the warm orange hue expresses the infinite sweetness when love comes.
At the end of the memory cleaning, the train reappeared again, bit by bit, time and memories are passing by, and fragments of memories continue to emerge in my mind, digging out the small details that have been washed away. Sitting in the car on the way back from the beach, what flashed by the side of the road were memories with Clem bit by bit. And Joel watched that bit by bit erased from his memory, but couldn't do anything. In the end, End up with "She is nice, she is just a girl."
"Oh, my daring, oh, my darling, oh, my darling, Clementine.
You were lost and gone forever, dreadful sorry Clementine."
PS how There is no rain on the original soundtrack.
I like it very much.
