Are you still criticizing those abortions, school fights, and school bullies in our country? These are also too pediatric for the teens of Grand France. Let's take a look at the world of French teenagers: domestic violence, running away from home, father killing mother, aunt being gay, going deep into the Soviet Union to "liberate the people", his "soul girlfriend" with all his friends and even his cousin. Relationships, going to someone else's house to stay overnight, and being nakedly seduced by the other's wife... All these are the basic plots of the French movie "Three Memories of Youth". Seemingly fantastic, it's not too commonplace for the French!
Let's break the structure of the film and first take a look at the love history between the protagonist and his "soul girlfriend".
First of all, Paul, the protagonist who has been away from home for a long time, did a very beautiful and awesome thing in his youth. During the Cold War, he traveled thousands of miles across the Iron Curtain, came to the Soviet Union from France, and used his passport to help an Israeli who needed to escape successfully escape. After this vote, the "little hero" who was still in middle school returned to his hometown in France and reunited with his "goddess" Esther.
"Entering the spare tire list" shows that it is really difficult to obtain this goddess. Fortunately, our little protagonist already has a "hero halo" and a "mystery". Soon, with his mysterious smile, he quickly conquered the "country girl" Esther, and told her: Brother is the "pure and selfless" who loves you.
After a night of fun (what? Do you still want to see the happy picture?), the protagonist has fully turned on the "death mode". He told his woman in an extremely pretentious tone: Brother is going to go out. Brother is going to Paris. Brother, don't go back to this little place again.
Let you cry and make trouble, brother will not be shaken. (But! Don't think that you have never been in France, you are clearly on the RER suburban express! You can't meet up in the one-hour drive from Beijing to Tianjin!)
I can't complain anymore. The two who pursue the high level of literature and art have opened up a difference! land! mutual! Pass! letter! piece! mold! Mode!
The anthropology, structuralism, Levi Strauss, Krazomeni Trosky, etc. mentioned in the letter will not be popularized one by one...
Next, the protagonist actually asks his girlfriend to death in his absence. Live in since! already! Family! inside!
Oh, by the way: their family has become a "shelter for children in distress" because of the suicide of their mother and the disappearance of their father. He also recruited his timid cousin who was escaping from his parents into the house. As a result, the "pure" girlfriend generously helped the little cousin to get enlightened and moved towards the ranks of adults.
WTF? Don't mention it to me now that you are all like this, why are both of you telling me so frankly! Hey, forget it, since brother said that what you love is your "pureness and selflessness", the water you spilled out to wash your feet can't be taken away, so let's endure it for a while and drink it. The great British writer Somerset Maugham wrote in his masterpiece "Under the Moonlight of Florence" that this kind of "Virgin Mary complex" of "compassion for the world" that only a "true goddess" can possess, I understand.
And isn't there the "view of freedom and pure love without marriage, bondage, bondage, freedom and purity" that Jean-Paul Sartre and Simon de Beauvoir, the most famous French writers and thinkers, proved in their lifetimes? role model! And, hehe, my brother has long been leading by example in Paris. My brother was "connected" in Paris long before you guys started fucking. No, I have to write to you quickly. Didn't Sartre also say that: the criterion for soul mates is that no matter how much the body cheats, the "mind does not cheat".
What's going on? My brother is because I don’t want to find a house in Paris, and I rely on others every day. As a result, the hostess seduces my brother: not only does she always drop my skirt for no reason in public, but when I arrive at home, all the clothes can be changed instantly (the plot is explicit. Can't bear the picture)!
Well, it turns out that my boyfriend already knew about it, and he was very generous to let my brother live at home. How can my brother's cowardly partner still chat with "pure girlfriend" as best friends on the phone, you see how open Parisians are!
So it's no wonder that their relationship was gradually understood by the people around them. His "pure girlfriend" kept breaking out the deeds of "helping everyone" in his hometown and gradually forced the protagonist to be inherited from his father. Desire to control, used all means to call his girlfriend to Paris, and his girlfriend was out of tune with Paris, and it was difficult for the relationship between the two to return to the past simplicity. And as the protagonist's best friend successfully seduced his girlfriend, which eventually led to the breakup of the two: it seems that Sartre Beauvoir-style love is really difficult in reality.
After watching the main plot of the movie, we also basically understood the youth of the protagonist, and finally understood why he chose to escape from France at the beginning of the film and exiled himself to Benin, a foreign country, and everything about Esther , can only be turned into "memory", buried deep in my heart. After finally washing the lead, he dared to set foot on his homeland again.
In the same way, through another childhood memory at the beginning, we can find the source of the protagonist's encounter in his youth, that is, from his deformed family. Looking at the pictures of my childhood memories, I was really taken aback: he was still a child and turned to his mother with a knife, his expression was serious and scary, and he warned her to stop monitoring the children's lives, and the mother's expression was so strange , She smiled but not smiled, as if she had been forced into a desperate situation. Soon, we know that she committed suicide, and the root of all this comes from the father who has a very unstable temperament. We mentioned earlier that during the growth of the protagonist's siblings, the lack of parents left their families uncontrolled, which led to many seemingly special events and the tragedies we saw.
The death of the mother and the brutality of the father prompted the little protagonist to flee the family at a young age, and has since lost the concept of "home". Another point is that he ran away from home and stayed at his aunt's house, and accidentally peeped at the scene where his aunt was making out with a same-sex administrator grandma, which also established his understanding of the concept of love: that is chasing The absolute "purity" and "freedom" concept of love, and I also devoted this concept to the "Pure Goddess" Esther. It can be said that the deeper the love, the worse the fall.
Two events in childhood planted two seeds for the protagonist Paul's life and formed three memories of him. So, we're not going to add fuel to the film's quirky plot, nor burden the director's compassionate, life-observing "new wave" qualities. Everything can be seen in this movie:)
