But when the "red sunset" is used to describe the elderly, it is always almost a situation. Not all elderly people can live as beautifully as the sunset.
The reality is often that many old people are lonely and empty nests, they are lonely and lonely but no one talks about them.
Although young people always cry out that they are lonely and cold, at least they cannot ignore the various company of electronic products. As for the old man, what else is there except an empty house and the loudest lines on the TV?
A film that Xiao Lai pushed to his friends today is called "Soul of the Night". The name is so beautiful, right?
The film mainly tells the story of two empty-nest elderly men and women who fall in love.
Maybe it's a little uncomfortable to focus on the love melody as soon as it comes up. After all, they are all in their 70s and 80s. But in the process of gradually slowing down the film, it is natural to feel that something called LOVE is affecting and affecting.
After some deliberation, Louis decided to accept the suggestion of nearby neighbor Eddie: because they were all single empty nesters, they wanted to sleep together. So that the night is not so lonely, at least someone can accompany you to talk.
It is indeed easy to magnify all emotions at night, not to mention loneliness.
The two old people were nervous and unfamiliar at the beginning to gradually becoming familiar and accustomed to it.
The night is no longer lonely and difficult, and it is no longer difficult to sleep every night.
Louis and Eddie are just that simple and natural in harmony.
From the beginning, just sleeping together at night to eating at the same table, from the beginning of being afraid of gossip, to the bold acceptance of everything.
These are feelings that gradually change over time. A touch of good feeling of strong dependence.
After all, they are all lonely and widowed seniors, and if one of them suddenly has company, everyone will be unaccustomed and jealous. Just like the feelings between groups of children, if an outsider suddenly comes in, everyone will definitely be a little bit repulsive at the beginning. But over time, their respective old friend groups have also sublimated from acceptance to habit.
But suddenly one day, Addie's son came back. Knowing all this, he did not agree with his mother being with Louis, and proposed that his mother move to live with him. In fact, it was to take better care of his son, Addie. grandson.
Although it was difficult to choose between her family and her own feelings, Eddie finally chose to sacrifice her feelings and moved into her son's house.
There are also clips in the film featuring Louis' daughter. Louis, Addie and Louise's daughter had dinner together after having fun together, and the attitude of Louise's daughter was completely different from that of Addie's son. She naturally accepted Addie's existence.
The feeling that the whole film reveals is a special warmth and a touch of touch, just like an elderly couple with a good relationship holding hands and walking on the path including the paths on both sides of the long trees.
From time to time, they chatted with one or two homely sentences, and sometimes they just looked at each other and smiled tacitly. The emotion is small, but the meaning is big.
If the love between Louis and Eddie first came from Eddie's boldness, then the management of the romantic Louis in the future is also very important.
Eat at a restaurant in town, go on a date at an upscale hotel in the city, go camping on a hillside in the suburbs. Maybe young people will not have this kind of romance.
The film feels so comfortable, you can't help smiling, and you can't help thinking about your old life, whether you can manage it so beautifully by yourself.
The actors who played Louis and Addie had worked together as a couple decades ago. Maybe the tacit understanding between them was involuntary, so the audience seemed to feel so comfortable.
Although Louis and Eddie don't live together like all conventional loves at the end, but keeping up with the rhythm of the times, using a mobile phone to chat with each other tacitly every night is a perfect ending, right?
After all, it's a long night without any intention to sleep. If there is a voice that understands you and can accompany you to sleep, that's a beautiful thing, so why not sleep next to it?
