How many dimensions do you have

This is the third biographical video of a singer I've watched. Because of the relationship between learning Salsa, the teacher mentioned this Cantante of cantantelos (singer of all singers) in the podcast. Said that J Lo and Mark Anthony co-starred in a biographical film about him. So I was curious to look for it, and I felt that it should help improve my enthusiasm for learning.
In general, this film presents Hector Lavoe's life in the form of a flashback, but it is different from the flashbacks of his life before death. Because, this film is told from the perspective of his wife, a typical woman's jumping way of thinking. From a man's point of view, it might feel a bit messy, but as a woman, I totally understand why she remembers those times and not those...
Next, I'll write from a woman's point of view, what I see through another woman's eyes to Hector Lavoe, or Hector Lavoes.
What is the most important thing for a woman to remember? A wedding of course, no doubt about it. In Pucci's memory, her proposal came after she became pregnant. Her wedding took place after her son was 2 years old. Her wedding ring was put on when Hector was drunk, at the bedside of the Becholer party. Her Wedding Vow...she doesn't have a wedding vow at all. So, wedding hurts, as the wife of the greatest singer.
When is a man's most attractive moment? In Jackie Chan's movies, it's when he's focused on work. So, Pucci more than once recalled the scene of Hector performing on stage. Well, that's quite fascinating indeed. But, even so, when Hector continued to take drugs, he didn't return. The happy smile faded from Pucci's face as he watched Hector sing. That look was gloomy. But even so, when Hector said i love you, she said, i love you too, even though it doesn't appear to be so. Hector said, i know. It breaks my heart to see this.
The part of the bereavement is very blurry. "I don't remember exactly what happened that year," Pucci said. I heard from this sentence that she was really in pain. However, she remembers Hector's attempt to divorce her very clearly after the funeral. Pucci believes that Hector filed for divorce because the son who last held the marriage was no longer there. On the other hand, when Hector was with his partner, he repeatedly emphasized that he loved her. I admit that I do not understand this paragraph, it is difficult to understand.
There is a very interesting part, Pucci has always insisted that Hector is outside tourists, but she has never had a confrontation because of this. On the other hand, Hector always suspects that there is someone outside Pucci, but never admits it positively in the film. Hector has someone else, I don't doubt it. Like I said in my last review, I'm not surprised anymore. However, I keep wondering if Pucci has anyone else. If there is no other person, as a woman, it is difficult to face her husband's infidelity to her calmly for a long time, not to mention that Hector later contracted AIDS. If so, how could Hector accept it? Later, I thought, it doesn't matter anymore, what matters is Hector's jealousy and anger from suspicion. For Pucci, that was enough.

The most difficult thing about a biographical film is to restore a personality through the external records of this person. Its difficulty is no less than the restoration of archaeological relics. In the opening chapter, Pucci said, this is my life, you are not allowed to judge, otherwise please be clever. I think what the writers want to say is that no matter what we as viewers think about Hector's life, it's his life and we have no right to judge. After watching this film, I had a feeling, a feeling that something was missing. It seems that Hector should have a life other than Pucci, otherwise it is difficult to explain why he suddenly schizophrenia and left home for a long time. Pucci doesn't care to know. And that's her problem. I've always felt that people are multifaceted. Every aspect needs to be understood. Maybe for a period of time, the characteristics of a certain side prevailed and became his Public character. However, the hidden side or sides have been struggling. Those with self-awareness gain stability if they choose to give up. If you choose to pursue, you will be free. Those who don't know it, whether they give up or pursue it, are going to perish because they are confused.
