-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- It
took two afternoons to read "Before Sunrise" and "Before Sunset". Generally speaking, the sequels are not as good as the previous ones, but this one is an accident. I love them even more after nine years. It is a kind of consummation after maturity.
nine years. In and out of play. Both are quite a long time.
The story from nine years ago was that the only certainty in life is that there is still a lot of uncertainty.
Intuitively, Selena got out of the car with Jesse, and as she said nine years later, all her romance and irrationality poured into that night.
She wasn't sure if following this strange man out of the car would be a great surprise, but her gut told her she would, so she didn't hesitate to get out of the car.
However, people's intuition often doesn't last long. After the impulse, both she and he have to think about whether they will meet again in the future. This thought makes people tangled and makes people rational again.
At that time, they were so young, and there were many, many possibilities in life, as if a prudent choice at the moment would determine their longevity in the future.
Selena is undoubtedly uncertain, she is not sure whether they will start to complain about each other after they are really together, and start to destroy the beauty of the first meeting. Completely unconfident.
At that time, Jesse was obviously very young, not enough to give her more confidence, not to mention that this was an encounter and an affair in a travel.
So after those uncertainties, they met at the train station six months later, without leaving each other's names and phone addresses, and just made this agreement.
Then Selena got in the car, and the camera slowly swept over the places they had passed by. People had already left, but those places seemed to still carry the residual warmth that they had stopped at.
Then, this wait, is nine years.
The story nine years later is about the helplessness and the reminiscence of the past after everything is determined.
Jesse wrote their story and became a best-selling author. His last stop was Paris, and he was a little bit pissed off. Let's see if the girl who broke the promise and didn't come will show up this time.
He really waited.
They joke around like all the old friends who have known each other for a long time.
However, as soon as she came up, she asked him if he had gone that day. Obviously, these nine years of blank contact could not make her forget that very early agreement, and she needed an answer.
And he needs that answer even more.
Didn't expect it to be like this. You can interpret it as a miss, or you can interpret it as a miss.
In short, the miss on December 16 of that year made each other's lives go in different directions.
She became a conservation worker and had a photographer boyfriend, but was away most of the time.
She said she liked the sparse relationship. Loneliness alone is better than loneliness with a lover.
He and his college classmates got married after splitting and splitting, and they have a four-year-old child. It sounds like the marriage is not very happy, there is no passion, but now he is the father of the child, and love has to give way to responsibility.
The Seine River in Paris is so beautiful. The two old friends who met again were on the cruise ship. They smiled, friendly and kind like old friends, but they kept their distance and said something innocuous.
Until in the car, Selena suddenly couldn't control it, she said she actually remembered that night, remembered that they had sex, she said what can I say, can we watch the stars rise together?
There was a little tremor in her shoulders and she started venting question after question, saying that all her romance was gone that night, but he took it away. All the ex-boyfriends said they thanked her for letting them learn what love is, but none of them said they wanted to marry her. She had changed boyfriends after another. So far, the photographer is still hesitant. She said that she is not resentful, she It's just that she doesn't feel anything anymore, and she won't give up with all her heart. At the end, she began to sob softly.
Jesse, who was on the side, tried to comfort her, and then began to talk about his unfortunate marriage. There was no laughter at home, but every time he saw the four-year-old child, he felt that he had a full responsibility waiting for him.
He is no longer like the unruly teenager of the year, and she is not the innocent girl who could have two braids back then.
He couldn't say to her romantically, hi, I want to take a picture for you, or shall we dance?
She can't reproduce the bravery she used to be, hi, do you want to kiss me?
Time pass by, people cry.
This is the music that plays at the beginning of the film.
The time has changed, they have matured, and if nine years ago, they were not sure who they would marry, what jobs they would have, and what future life they would have.
Nine years later, they have already passed their thirties, and many things in their lives have been determined. They talk about family, about responsibilities, about work, about life, and of course, about making love.
In the park, she asked him, if the two of us were going to die today, what would you say to me?
He said half-seriously, half-jokingly: Oh, then we should have sex like crazy before we die. Then he pulled her up and sat down on the chair.
Many times, only at the last moment will people remember who they love most in this life and who they most want to keep by their side to spend the last moment.
However, today they will not die, so they will still maintain their rational life. So they only have one afternoon to spend with each other.
Compared with the passionate kisses in the first mile, in the second li, only the last few minutes, the restrained, gentle, but the people inside and outside the play will hug gently and sadly.
I love that ending at the end.
Selena sat on the edge of the bed and played the guitar, singing the song dedicated to that night.
Jesse sat on the sofa, looking at her affectionately and with a smile.
Then he stood up and asked:
Do you change your name to a different person every time you come?
She pretended to be easy and direct and replied:
Of course, otherwise you thought this song was written specifically for you? Your brain is sick.
And all the onlookers, we, know what the real answer is, right?
Sometimes life was such that he had the courage to ask her if she would follow her out of the car.
She also had the courage to follow him through that wonderful night.
But she didn't have the courage to stay with him.
It's contradictory, right, but that's human nature.
Sometimes, the meaning of my leaving you is that I can't bear to destroy the beauty of you in my mind in the washing of the years, so forgive me.
Nine years later, they regret that they didn't exchange numbers nine years ago, otherwise the misunderstanding wouldn't have lasted that long.
But no matter how long, fortunately they finally met again and explained it clearly.
However, the time that has passed, can this explanation make up for it?
Life has no ifs, and our youth is already thin.
In the last ten minutes of the film, I kept sighing, the last ending seemed very open, giving people hope, but it was so far away.
Nine years ago, they were not decisive enough, and they were not brave enough. Nine years later, they have gone through the trials and hardships of life, and they each have a family and a boyfriend, and they are not necessarily more courageous.
But, it doesn't matter, they have at least confirmed each other's position in their hearts, that's fine.
Cryers are for us outsiders. I imagine that maybe many, many years later, a pair of old people, in their respective cities, are sitting in their bedrooms, basking in the sun, facing the turbulent changes outside the window, quietly thinking about their life, maybe she is stroking the cat, beside her. An old guitar with broken strings, maybe his gray hair rubbed the book he wrote to her when he was young. They didn't even have a photo of each other, and then all kinds of life flashed in their minds. Those who thought they were important, or who were with them, turned out to be just passing by, just passing by.
And that, they kept silent, the faces they thought had been forgotten in the years gradually became clear, it turned out that no one had forgotten anyone.
In his memories, he was still so young and energetic, and she was still so innocent and a little cranky. Then they each fell asleep with a smile.
Of course, it is more likely that they have already forgotten each other in the dye vat of the years.
Of course, I hope they will remember. Haha, it's worth Homecoming.
Anyway, you liked me yesterday, but today I can do it.

Thanks to those who read from start to finish ( If anyone reads it)
I've never written a review that long, I just love it so much.
While watching this film, I don't know why I flew over the songs of N many EASON and Qianhua.
And this one, I stubbornly felt, was written for both of them.
Close your eyes and you miss most who
opened his eyes around who was actually
grateful for the station
still gave us the platform to meet the tears
hold will remember who does not own
fast unhappy day total past
love, if it is difficult to put in the hands of
Why don't you put these hands in your heart The
most beautiful long hair is not left in my hands, I also happily drank
The End.
