love is memory

If the same person stands in front of you, but lacks the memory of your love with him, will he still love you?

"Womb" is probably a movie around this issue. Putting aside the ethics and morals of clones, when he reappears in front of you, he will still have the same hairstyle, the deep eyes, the familiar face, and the same With a kind voice, he remembers who you are, but only forgets that you have loved each other, so does he still love you?

When Rebecca pissed and raised Tommy again, see Tommy and Monica blatantly living a sweet cohabitation life in front of "mother", just because Tommy has no memory of loving Rebecca at all.

Tommy is still the same Tommy, even if cloning and regeneration still loves biological science, all the details remain the same, but for the regenerated Tommy, Rebecca is just his mother, who he was born for, if only to replicate the one who loved Rebecca Tommy's words, no wonder Tommy left with his luggage in the end.

In this way, love is a memory shared by two people. As long as either party forgets or interrupts, love will not be established. This is probably also a portrayal of "I have no feelings for you"?

It's a very light movie, the OP and ED are so quiet, there's no sound at all. The lonely old wooden house by the sea and the old swing that keep repeating. It's a painting, framed in a world of sand, wooden houses, swings, waves, rain.

Because all of this is all the memories of Rebecca and Tommy from childhood to love.

That's how Rebecca lived in the world of her own making after Tommy's death. Tommy is still Tommy, grandpa's old wooden house is still the old wooden house, and it still rains by the sea.

It's just that Tommy drank Meng Po soup and forgot about that so-called love.

So, love is memory.

    1 A very quiet film with very little dialogue and almost no soundtrack. 2-frame photography is not bad, with dark and icy tones. 3 I don't like this kind of ethical story too much, but fortunately, I didn't do too much shit when dealing with literary and artistic fans. 4 I mainly look at Eva Green, her acting skills did not disappoint me, and her maternal temperament is overwhelming.

    "Two Whatevers": Watch all Eva Green movies, and all Eva Green movies are good. The photography and scenes of The Womb are beautiful. Not very interested in stories like ethics. I want them to hurry up all the way. In the end, I figured it out and I felt that~ Oh, it's boring.
