After watching "Journey to the West", I couldn't help but think of a question: If Zixia knew in advance that she would die because of the Supreme Treasure, would she still love the Supreme Treasure?
For this question, Liu Zhenwei tried to give the answer in "Journey to the West 3", but the answer he gave was really bad, not only denied the first two "Journey to the West", but also changed Zixia's image from a goddess. became a female nerve.
The answer that "Westward Journey 3" did not give, I found in "Now to see you".
"Now to See You" is a Korean romance film. The film begins with a fairy tale:
Legend has it that there is a cloud kingdom between heaven and earth, and that is the place where people who are going to heaven stay.
Every day, a mother penguin looks down on the earth from the crevices of the cloud country, looking for her baby. When the rainy season came, this mother penguin took the raindrop train to the world and found her child at the railway station.
They fish together and play together. Time flies, and the rainy season is coming to an end.
The raindrop elf came and told the mother penguin: "The rainy season is almost over. You have to go back while the clouds are still there. If you don't catch the last raindrop train, you have to go to heaven. After that, you can no longer look down on the baby penguin's face. ."
Helpless, the mother penguin can only say goodbye to the little penguin. After returning to Yunguo, the mother penguin still looked at her child from the sky, but she no longer shed tears.
This fairy tale is the introduction to the whole film, and it is also the epitome of the whole film.
After the fairy tale is over, return to the real world.
At this time, the heroine Lin Xiuya had passed away, her husband Zheng Yuzhen was standing in front of the spirit, and the child Zhihao was hiding and reading fairy tales. It is said that the stories in fairy tales are deceitful, but children always believe it. Zhihao has always believed that his mother will come back.
More than a year later, Zhihao learned from the weather forecast that the rainy season was approaching. At a young age, he didn't quite understand the rainy season, so he kept pestering his father, trying to get a definite answer from him. As an adult, Yu Zhen naturally didn't believe in fairy tales, but he couldn't bear to hurt the child's heart.
The father and son look forward to the rainy season together. On the first day of the rainy season, they waited at the little deserted railway station mentioned in the fairy tale.
In the rainy season, there is a railway station, but there is no raindrop train in fairy tales.
The child's dream was shattered, followed by the father. Although Yu Zhen doesn't believe in fairy tales rationally, he hopes that fairy tales are true more than anyone else.
On the way back, the father and son met the dead Suya in the train tunnel. The child was ecstatic, the father was more shocked.
Here I have to admire the director, so clever and cruel: first give you a fairy tale hope, then press you into the abyss of reality, and then take you to heaven.
However, Xiu Ya doesn't seem to remember her husband and son at all.
The father and son brought Xiuya home, and the house was filled with photos of the three of them. At this time, Xiu Ya reluctantly believed that the two might really be her husband and son.
In this way, Xiu Ya moved in and started the life of the three of them. Life is still the same life, washing and cooking, three meals a day, but because there is one more person, it will be a lot more interesting.
Gradually, Xiu Ya integrated into the family. She took the initiative to ask Yuzhen about their love experience, and took the initiative to wear the wedding ring that was collected. Soo Ah and Woo Jin's relationship rekindled.
The scene where they kiss on the top of the mountain is one of the most romantic scenes in the film. It was raining in the sky, Yuzhen kissed Xiuya lightly, and stretched out a hand to shield Xiuya from the rain.
This scene looks romantic, but it's cruel to think about. A hand can't stop a rain, it's doomed to be futile. And this futility is shown most vividly in the second half of the film.
As soon as he heard the weather forecast that the rainy season was about to end, Yuzhen immediately turned off the TV, as if this would prolong the rainy season.
To prolong the rainy season,
Yu Zhen kept moving wood, trying to block the train tunnel when Xiu Ya came.
Zhihao heard from his classmates that his dad only had to wash the car and it would rain the next day, so he secretly went to wash the car with cleaning tools.
The results of it?
The firewood that Yu Zhen worked so hard to pile up was washed away by the rain, and Zhi Hao washed his classmate's father's car and was caught.
All the ways they could think of to save it didn't work.
Their hope and their happiness are given by fairy tales, their despair and their sadness are also given by fairy tales. This movie is like that from beginning to end, as warm as it can be cruel.
The pain of losing relatives and regaining them is far more tormenting than losing them forever. The latter gives you no hope, while the former gives you all hope and then takes it all away.
As written in fairy tales, Xiu Ya finally left.
If the movie ends here, then "Now to See You" can only be regarded as an ordinary love movie, and it can't bring anything except to earn a wave of tears.
What really elevates the film is the ending.
After Xiuya left, Yuzhen found Xiuya's notebook, and only then did he understand the truth:
It turns out that Xiuya is not just a simple amnesia, she was accidentally hit by a car eight years ago because of chasing Yuzhen, her brain was severely damaged, and she has been in a coma. The amazing thing is that her consciousness traveled through time and space to the present, so she had what happened in the movie.
In other words, Xiu Ya already knew eight years ago that if she married Yu Zhen, she would definitely die.
If it was destined to end in tragedy, what would you choose?
In the movie, Xiuya Ming married Yu Zhen without hesitation, just like Zixia who blocked the fatal blow for the Supreme Treasure without hesitation. I thought that parting from life and death was already the most touching part of the movie, but it was only at the end that I realized that this kind of relentless action is what it is.
Take the popular "Predecessor 3" and "Later Us" for example, the protagonists in it clearly love each other, but in the end they can only part ways, not even friends. After all, is it not enough love? I think it is more accurate to say that there is a lack of a little bit of recklessness.
The reality is that in the face of reality, we will always lack this spirit of no turning back. Many times we regret, but we regret that we were not so reckless at the time.
Those who go can not be remonstrated, and those who come can still be chased.
Don't think about your ex after watching "Predecessor 3", or watch "Now to See You" and seize the present.
