Natalie Portman and Jude Law, the love that can’t live without a lie. When



Jude was about to leave Natalie, I thought it was another female mourning that was hurt by the artist (refer to "The Moon and Sixpence"), and I knew it was wrong after reading it. This is a battle of wits between the two artists.



When she told him that her name was "Alice Ayre", the lie and the love had begun at the same time. From the very beginning, this love was a narrative premeditated, or as she said, an "adventure": when he first remembered her, she chose a pleasing one at the place he visited 20 years ago. name. He is an author, but she is not, and she is a better author than him, even the choice of name is so foreshadowing. The old place visited on the day of his mother’s death, the holy name of the firefighter, this foreshadowing was buried far enough when Clive Owen laughed at him. Jude often woke up in the middle of the night and cried and called his mother's name (of course she knew Julia Roberts) , And the look of astonishment on his face when he passed the cemetery again and saw Alice Ayre carved on the wall. He, a mentally unweaned child, can't forget his mother, nor can he forget her. The sceneries in the classics are also classics. Later when he woke up crying and called her mother's name, he would think of a name that broke her even more heartbreakingly, even though it was a pseudonym. Alice Ayre.



The absurdity of her narrative is bounded by this relationship: she only lied to him, and she even told her in her real name for the striptease in the nightclub. When Clive Owen endured the pain of being betrayed to seek "truth", put money in her stockings again and again, and asked her to tell him his real name, she smiled again and again: Thank you, my name is Jane Jones. Clive felt that this bitch was torturing her deliberately, indeed, she was torturing him with the truth. In her opinion, lies represent the sweetness of love, and truth brings endless pain, and Clive is not worthy of her lies. So at the end Jude asked her to tell him if she had slept with Clive, she knew that the foundation of their love could no longer be maintained. The truth brought endless pain, and the first blow was Jude's fierce slap.



The first time they met in the car, Natalie asked Jude to describe her in a lingo, he said: You are disarming. I remembered that I once said to a new acquaintance: You can make people disarm all of them. Armed off, the small blade makes your heart and lungs hurt.



Julia Roberts and Clive, the love that stems from revenge. To



be correct, Julia and Clive are not a couple with the same bed but with different dreams, but a pair of rivals.



Thinking about their acquaintance, Jude used Julia's name (Anna) to hook up Clive on the Internet, which attracted him to his heart, then asked him to the aquarium and asked him to put on a doctor's gown. He must have played this kind of trick many times, and he will never get tired of it. By the way, Julia happened to be there this time, which is certainly not a coincidence: Jude's book is called "Aquarium". A love-seeking person who finds himself a fool, and a lover who borrows a place, but knows that lovesickness is so disrespectful and vengeful, Jude this Cupid is not wronged at all.



This kind of beginning destined Clive and Jude to be unresolved enemies. Doesn't Jude's transvestite mean anything? Is this just a boring game time after time, or is he advertising his book like Clive scolded? not necessarily. Jude never feels safe with a woman, Natalie is like this, Julia is like this, he was hysterical in front of the two women, and his crying and tenderness in the last conversation with Clive were in stark contrast. During the conversation, Clive asked him if he had hooked up with strangers on the Internet, and remembered Jude's joke to him, saying that I really wanted to squeeze you, Jude responded, but you wanted to fuck me back then. Between them is full of such metaphors.



Clive's revenge against him is far more than a man's revenge. It’s hard to imagine how much a man who forgave his ex-wife because he was willing to have fun with him, and who was full of accomplishment because he took his wife back, loves his wife. Jude asked: You married her because of me? Clive made no secret of saying yes, I fucked her just to fuck you. He can say I love you to anyone, and also to Natalie, it’s hard to know his I love

How valuable you are, it's hard to know who he loves. His pity for Jude collapsed instantly when Jude walked out of the room. He knew that after he told him the truth, it was impossible for him and Natalie to be together, just as Jude knew that Julia was going to bed with him again. Among the four of them, it is hard to tell who is jealous and who is. Jude, the "great romantic hero", is far from proportional to charm and emotional intelligence, but he inadvertently evaluated the two of them appropriately: he said Clive, "he is too smart", and said himself, "I am an idiot." ". He is an "idiot" because he doesn't know what he and others want, and Clive at least sees Jude, Julia and himself clearly.



Poor Julia, she is the woman who loves the most, but her love and guilt are the opposite of each other. Once she feels guilty to someone, she can no longer be with him, and she Being with another person needs this sense of guilt to sustain it. So she left Clive at first, but when Clive said, I forgive you, and Jude walked away, she finally returned to Clive. As Clive said: She loves guilty fuck.
