I really like the Argentine movie "Love, Not Friends", the beautiful scenery of Argentine water villages like oil paintings, the purest and clearest bamboo and horse love since childhood, the subtle but always overflowing light emotions, and the hero with his own style. Many days have passed since I read it, and I still reminisce in my heart from time to time, and I can't help but write a few more sentences.
This is actually a movie with a touch of sadness. The sadness is so light and light, so light that people can hardly feel it, but it inadvertently arouses ripples in our hearts. Just like our life, go to work, go to get off work, have dinner, go out for entertainment with friends... We all work hard, smile at colleagues, smile at bosses, smile at customers... work hard, care for family, care for friends... ...but inadvertently, or in the dead of night, a faint unknown sadness arises from the bottom of my heart. This movie brings us such a kind of sadness.
This is a love movie about separation and reunion.
Ten years ago, Matthias left in a hurry, after he subconsciously kissed Geralt. The kiss was very light and light, but when he woke up to the sound of birdsong in the early morning, looked at Jello's sleeping face, he subconsciously leaned in and touched the corner of his mouth.
This is the natural expression of many years of juvenile affection.
This inadvertent revelation made Matthias panic, and he fled before Geralt returned the kiss, leaving Geralt to be puzzled and hopeless. Even when Jello spoke to him later, he deliberately pretended to be enthusiastic about talking to others about girls, ignoring Jello and letting Jello leave alone.
After Jello approached him again, he told him lightly that he was going to leave Argentina with his family and go to Brazil.
This departure is ten years.
Ten years later, Mathias returns with his girlfriend. He has become tall and mature, but he has lost the pure smile that he did not know about the world when he was a teenager, and always carried an indescribable melancholy. The girlfriend is very considerate and wants to make him happy, arranges a makeup artist, dresses up as his favorite zombie, and attends a masquerade party.
In fact, it's not Matthias who likes zombies, it's Jello.
Mathias has never figured out his own mind. During the 10 years of separation, he liked Geralt's likes. From time to time, he talked to his girlfriend about summer farms, swamps, ponds... Those who had lived with Geralt, A place where countless happy hours were spent, but Geralt was never mentioned. That was the young man's mind that he couldn't touch and didn't want to share with others, even if that person was his girlfriend.
Hey, how long does it take us to figure out what we love in our hearts; it takes many stories to know what our heart really desires.
Have you figured out who the person you really like is, and what is the thing you want to give your all to in this life?
Sometimes I'm afraid I'm wasting my time
God (the director) was gentle enough with Matthias, and Matthias was lucky enough to meet Gerald again and have a day alone with him.
On this day, they revisited the old places, relived the fun in the past, rowing, splashing in the water, basking in the sun, getting in the rain, eating, smoking, and carefully venting their dissatisfaction with each other's interactions with others.
Retaining people on rainy days, keeping people in mind, the torrential rain made Mathias decide to spend the night at the Jello family's farm.
They changed out of their rain-drenched clothes, repaired the refrigerator, clinked glasses, and danced together.
Then Matthias gently touched the corner of Geralt's mouth as he did ten years ago.
This time, Geral finally seized the opportunity, he changed from passive to active, kissed back passionately, and logically developed to full physical contact. It came once on the sofa, and again on the bed after being woken up in the middle of the night.
Fate is wonderful, if there is no coexistence on this day, if it is not for Jello's parents being delayed by a day, maybe Matthias will say goodbye in a hurry again, and then he will be unhappy all his life, and I don't know the reason.
Perhaps, Geralt should be braver. He has always been clear about what he loves in his heart, and he has always known what he wants, but perhaps it was his bravery 10 years ago that allowed him to be left out and separated, and Matthias 10 years later When he came back with his girlfriend, he didn't dare to be brave, and he couldn't be brave either. His bravery came after Matthias touched him. ,
This kind of bravery embodies 10 years of expectation, but it is the sword of morality on its head, which makes it extremely vulnerable. Waking up after a night of passion, to Matthias' dodging gaze, it disappeared without a trace.
Geralt took Matthias back to town, and all he said to Matthias was, "Don't worry, I know your whole life is there, your girlfriend, your job, and I don't want to deal with them." , restrained and desperate.
Fortunately, Mathias finally figured out what he loved and wanted in his heart, and finally came back refreshingly, hugging and kissing him.
The director gave them a happy ending. Gave us a happy ending.
I write about Matthias and Geralt, and I think about myself. Life is only a few decades, the world is unpredictable, maybe there are many years, maybe today is the last day, do I really know what I want? Are you really living the life you want?
