What shocked me the most was not love, but life. The new bridge that belongs to the night is home to three homeless people with completely different backgrounds. Two very different beings danced together far away from the world. The other, on the sidelines, joins, disappears. Those tremors and unease from life all stem from the thirst and despair for love. So this film is called "New Bridge Lovers".
Everyone has a lover in their heart. They wander, all in search.
There are many scenes, unforgettable. At the beginning, Yali and Michelle, who are walking alone, meet for the first time. Yali turned a blind eye to everything in the doze, and Michelle thought the other party was dead in the blur. The second encounter is in Michelle's painting. on the new bridge. This time, one person fell asleep and one person woke up. Just switched roles. Yali saw that there was a portrait of himself in Michelle's portfolio. So in the early morning of the second day, Hans chased Michelle away, Alex chased after Michelle... This was the third time. This time they had a conversation and saw each other.
They were drunk, intoxicated, and danced the dazzling dance of life on the new bridge. They are far from the world, looking for light in fireworks, flames and gunfire. They ran and shouted in the sea naked, hugging each other for warmth and falling asleep. They are in love. One side is vague, the other side is certain.
Hans kept Michelle off the bridge. He told her where he came from and why. Tells how a woman wanders in the day and gets lost in the night. Talk about how someone you love grows old and dies. He says he fits the bridge and she doesn't. Michelle wanted to go to the museum to see the painting she wanted to see before she lost her sight, and Hans took her there. In the candlelight, she saw the face she wanted to see, and he saw his wife. Love no longer has a concrete object, it becomes the greatest illusion in life. Later, Hans stumbled and fell into the water.
I love those lights the most. Gorgeous, beating, and beautiful. They stand together with the humble life, meet, merge, and do not distinguish each other. They become the essence of life - fleeting beauty, incomprehensible light. They shine on those who have no home.
When Michelle was going blind, posters looking for her began to be posted all over the street. Alex began frantically erasing the traces. Just like when he drove away Michelle's lover. In the end, Michelle heard the news on the radio and left Xinqiao; and he was imprisoned for accidentally injuring someone while burning the poster. She left a sentence: forget me, I have never loved you.
Two years later, they met in prison. She said: I can't forget you. He asked: Why did you forget? She said: "Because of fear. He said: I am waiting for you. She said: You have been in my dreams.
Three years later, he was released from prison. They meet at Xinqiao, and she paints him. Still dancing, no longer wild, but still cheerful. This time she noticed that time was flying by, and she was going back to the world again. He said: No. Run over, pick her up and jump off the bridge. They found their past in the sea.
In the end, they followed a boat that was going straight ahead and set foot on the road of no return.
New Bridge is left behind them, love is by their side. Standing on the bow, they continued to spin in a quiet position, ready to dance to their knees.
In addition to the plot, acting, photography, and makeup, the film is also very impressive. Lame feet, cloudy eyes, extremely bright clothes, and out-of-time shoes that keep changing all impact my vision. The incompleteness and humility of life are delineated in detail by these appearances, and there is nowhere to escape.
There were also some great dialogues. In the end, I just remember the sentence: If you say the sky is white, I will say that the clouds are black. Then I knew we were in love.
What a beautiful code word. Find someone to talk to.
