First of all, in terms of storyboards, colors, music, actors and plot, this is a masterpiece worthy of full marks. Soothing tones and music, Sophie Marceau's beauty and her toned muscles (sorry how much time it takes to go to the gym to develop a firm line at this age that many young people may not have) is enough for me Watching intently. It's been a long time since I saw a movie that fascinated me so much. The center of the film is similar to "Paradise Lost", both exploring the theme of soulmate and extramarital affairs, but "An Encounter" has a different narrative style than "Paradise Lost". In the past, I would regard Paradise Lost as a masterpiece, but now I prefer An Encounter.
From the beginning, I thought that this story must be a tragedy, because the ending of any work involving extramarital affairs is always made up by the audience when they hear "extramarital affairs". But this extraordinary ending is precisely the key to becoming a masterpiece: if you are halfway through your life and your family is complete, what will you do when you meet a soulmate at this time? In less than a third of the beginning, through the imagination of the hero and heroine, the director quickly gave the ending of the extramarital affair in our habitual thinking, and then told us very naughty - it's not what you think.
The film also renders the somewhat boring and noisy marriage of the middle-aged couple in great detail, as well as their respective partners in their lives: they are not perfect soulmates, but they have been subtly indispensable or sweet. There also seems to be a paradox here: if the male protagonist is not a good man who cherishes family values and has good taste, will he be enough of a soulmate in her heart when the female protagonist meets him? If they had known and married long ago, could they be as passionate and romantic as they were when they met? Probably as unknowable as quantum.
So in the intertwining of fantasy and reality, the story is pushed forward with mixed joys and sorrows. Just when the audience is tired of the sudden vivid brain hole, the process suddenly accelerates: all the intimacy and ambiguity are real, as if to hang the audience's appetite. : Will they be together? Will they get it? When all the atmosphere is rendered to the extreme, the ringtone of reality pulls me and the hero and heroine to reality at the same time. Yes, if you want a story to never end, it never begins.
All in all, go see it, it's a good movie, because the ending sounds very sad, but it's actually not so sad, and life goes on. It turned out that they had met at the beginning, and the end was the beginning. Their love will be like a quantum, appearing in different places and never ending in fantasy.
