Peach Blossom Land does not exist, even the "rule of Yuanjia", it only lasted for more than 20 years and then declined rapidly, so much so that Xin Qiji said in his words: "I think back then, a golden horse and an iron horse, swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger. Yuan Jia hastily, sealed the wolf to live in Xu, and won the rush to the north." People are in troubled times, and their mood is difficult to calm. In the era of Chengping, many people are still attached to Peach Blossom Spring and yearn for the life of "farmer, mountain spring, and a little field". But yearning returns to yearning, reality returns to reality, think about Gu Cheng on Waiheke Island, killing his wife and then committing suicide, you know that seclusion is not an easy task.
It is better described by Lai Shengchuan in "Secret Love: Peach Blossom Land". In "Secret Love", two people yearn to be together for the rest of their lives, and the emotional membrane never gets a chance to break; while in "Peach Blossom Land", Lao Tao's escape from real life , once he turned around and came back, it was still a piece of shit, and Chunhua and Boss Yuan's junior high, turning the joy of cheating into a life of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, was also a piece of chicken feathers. Reality and fantasy are set against each other between "Secret Love" and "Peach Blossom Land", which is provocative.
There is a tangle between obsession and gain. There is a sentence criticizing the slutty poet that can be used for reference. "If you don't get it, you sing about the greatness of love, and once you get into bed, you immediately sing about the preciousness of freedom." This sentence makes the poet's irresponsibility. The sarcasm and sarcasm are very real, but aside from responsibility and responsibility, maybe the poems about love and freedom he wrote before and after are all very beautiful, with sincere feelings and beautiful words.
For poets, the transformation of face-changing comes too quickly, and for ordinary people, the entanglement of love may be even more painful. "To Wonderland" is about the entanglement between cherishing and letting go of love or not, as well as the initial feeling for love.
The "Wonderland" in "Towards Wonderland" is actually not quite similar to the "Peach Blossom Land" that Orientals think about, but it actually means that at the beginning of the movie, "Ben Affleck" and "Ojia" "Crylancôme" is roaming on a beach in France. This beach is being called "Western Wonderland", which means "Penglai Immortal Island" in the East. At that time, it was from the beginning of the acquaintance of the young American with the French girl that they fell in love. The relationship in love is the most beautiful, hot and pure, and each other only looks at the best side of each other, and ignores the dark side of each other's humanity intentionally or unintentionally. Because the best time in their relationship was left here, "leading to the fairyland" has the meaning of returning to the original, which is both true and false, and has a double meaning. Just like "Peach Blossom Land" can never be found, "Western Wonderland" can never be returned, so both of them are caught in the whirlpool of feelings and tangled.
"Ben Affleck" met his first love after marriage, and was triggered by some dusty feelings; and in the days of separation, "Oga Kurylenko"'s life was not satisfactory, full of satisfaction is hardship. "Ben Affleck" wanted to be a writer, but ended up being an environmental supervisor, but it didn't go well. In the meantime, there is also the entanglement of the priest "Javier Bardem" about belief, whether God really exists, and whether to continue to believe, are all unanswerable questions.
These people are far away from the original "Wonderland", unable to go back, and unable to reach the other side, sinking into emotional pain and entanglement. "Leading to Wonderland" does not tell a story well, but a video fragment of prose culture, which links the emotions of the series together, showing a kind of blurred color. Maybe, people who are not used to it can't stand it within five minutes of opening the title, while those who like it are immersed in it from the first shot of the movie, and they feel pain and love together in the emotional entanglement in the film, and enjoy the love. The feeling of sharing in the relationship, but also the pain of struggling in the relationship.
If "33 Days of Broken Love" and "To Youth" are a kind of small freshness, then under the lens of Terrence Malick, they immediately pale in comparison. This extremely personal film, expressed in prose, is not watching the film, but visualizing it, and working with the director to complete the entire part of the film. Terrence Malick's shots exemplify a detached elegance, more detached than Wong Kar-wai. The dreary and free images he created leave more room for imagination. Moreover, the whole movie does not rely on the embellishment of golden sentences, and it does not even need lines. It is enough to just follow the feeling.
