The film "Midnight in Barcelona" explains to us the various states of life, several different ways of living, including attitudes and choices towards love. In the film, Vicky is a down-to-earth person. She can't bear pain very much and doesn't like to resist. Her requirements for men are steadfastness and stability. Her fiancé is a decent and responsible man with a successful career. With her, she felt happy and content, and at one point believed that this was the life she wanted. Contrary to her, Christina always has somewhat different expectations for love. She felt that the deeper the love, the more painful it would be. She didn't know what kind of love quagmire she would fall into. But she knew that she didn't want Vicky's life. The one I remember most clearly is what she said, "I don't know what I want, but I know what I don't want." They held their own attitudes until Antonio broke into their lives.
In the small town of Oviedo, Antonio took them on a tour. He has a crush on Vicky, a completely different type of person from the one he once loved. But they both know that the other person is not someone who can live with them, but the good thing happens like that, even if it doesn't work out. Christina knew nothing about it. She can't help but adore Antonio's artistry and live a romantic life with him in a beautiful little house in Barcelona. They go for a walk in the wild during the day, and enjoy the sweetness in a cozy room at night. No one dared to deny such a beautiful day, she thought that was all she wanted, she seemed to have European thinking and even thought of settling in Barcelona. Until Antonio's ex-wife appeared in a shocking manner, she was a beautiful and unrestrained Spanish woman full of artistic talent and amorous feelings. She is omnipotent and omnipotent. She has a unique view of the world, art and creation. She can play the piano and photography. The only flaw is that her character is changeable, even hysterical. All of Antonio's stuff was "stolen from her" by her. The three of them start living together, and Christina is like the "salt" in her mouth, balancing her relationship with Antonio. The three have a common passion for art and become a love triangle. There is no conflict or dissatisfaction between the two, they love each other and live in peace. Until one day, Christina suddenly began to think, is this the life she wants, she wants to seek other different feelings. She herself didn't know what was right, but at least she knew that this state of life did not belong to her. Being decisive and leaving decisively is her most unrestrained character.
As for Vicky and Antonio, we can take it as a little interlude. Tidbits about life. In fact, there will be something different in everyone's life, even people who tend to be plain. They also make difficult choices about these temptations.
In their tumultuous relationship, they have been running the life they want in Barcelona for two months. Perhaps the ending of the movie was expected. Vicky must have chosen her ideal of a stable and steady life. After Christina experienced a three-person love that did not belong to her, she continued to find what she wanted different. .
Movies are good. A beautiful Spanish town, interspersed with a few fluent and authentic Spanish. The melodious guitar playing in the town of Oviedo is also intoxicating. After watching it, I have been thinking about who I am more like, and I want to know which one in the play I want to do. Failed, the conclusion is still the sentence "I don't know what I want, but I know what I don't want".
