To be honest, what I look forward to most before watching is not watching the story or the plot, but watching the actors.
After watching it, I am really impressed with the acting skills of the two leading actors. I really like the performances of Aunt Mei and Uncle Tie! With such a large age span, it fits perfectly and is very convincing.
Except for the close-up of Aunt Mei when she was 20 years old, you can see the wrinkles on the corners of the brows and eyes. At other times, she is completely the angel of her dream lover. Under the long lens, this young girl with budding eyes and flowing eyes is so beautiful. Will fall in love at first sight.
This time Uncle Tie is amorous and strong, and his long-term affection is also indifferent. But at the end, he has two tears. When a person is about to die, his heart becomes soft and introspective. Once, her daughter Blanca, whose life and death were unknown, was finally found, and once she missed Clara before she died. Tears in the corners of my eyes, infinite feelings. Although I think the plot of the movie is not very coherent in the emotional line, such as how to choose between love and desire. But Uncle Tie's acting skills supported the complexity of the role, and the eyes at the end were moving.
Let's talk about the plot. When I watched it, I was afraid to see that it was a replica of several Greek myths and stories superimposed together, but fortunately there was none. I saw some film critics say that this story is epic, but in fact it only has a relatively long time span.
The revenge line of the first generation and the second generation, and the emotional line of the first generation and the second generation, are related and mutually exclusive. In fact, they are very divergent, but in my opinion, they are not fully developed. For example, the appearance of an illegitimate son did not reveal the core contradiction at all, which was a bit tasteless. There are also some jumps in the plot. The background of the times is grand and there are turning points, such as war, but the fire is obviously not enough.
But overall, telling the story of a person's life is exciting enough. With the addition of the actors' acting skills and the magic of gold, the movie is still good.
How did you feel after watching this movie?
What I see, one, is that everything is connected.
The second is that love and sincerity is magic in itself, it will break the curse if you believe it.
