people without a place

First of all, I like the floating feeling in Wong Kar Wai's films, it is a feeling without roots. Likes should be due to the inherent loneliness of human hearts. Humans are the loneliest animal in the world, and the only animal that understands loneliness.
My initial impression of this movie was just a bunch of people who didn't come and go. It seems that he has always been tricked by fate and can never escape a circle.
Love his English translation, a rare good translation. "ASHES OF TIME" is just a patchwork of these simple words, from which people can get some spiritual things. I have loved, and I have hated, how many bodies turned into dust are destined to go through this reincarnation. This cold world has once wrapped so many warm souls, but it is so contradictory and has so many regrets. In fact, as long as a glass of wine, you can get drunk on the troubles of the world. In fact, as long as you make a vow, you can accompany you forever. It's that simple, why doesn't anyone do it?
After exhausting the time of this life, it turned out that all that was waiting for him at the end were ashes.
All the characters in it are given a tragic color. It turns out that the world is like a drunken dream in the hands of Dongxie, and it is a dream that is unwilling to continue. The love and hatred in it have long since been transformed into a setting sun in the desert, and a broken flag under the setting sun of Ouyang Peak. He said to the woman he loved deeply: There is a saying, I will never say it again after this evening. Are you following me! Your voice is so cold, even colder than the blade, she said: You will not be better. Not with! Remember, from today onwards, I am your sister-in-law, and there is only one person who can hold my hand in the future, that is your brother, and the others are not qualified! She said, "I just want him to say a word, but he won't say it. He is too confident... Since that's the case, I won't let him get it." hell? Is it just for a moment of negativity, or a face that can't be let go? Then pay the rest of your life to wait, and the helplessness of the rest of your life.
I still remember that nine-fingered beggar, his infatuated and foolish wife.
That year, there was a man sitting outside a tavern in a small northern town. He drank wine and ate meat, and although he was dressed in rags, he was so happy and content, while his woman was drooping and the boss was unhappy.
"Mother-in-law, wait for me in the country, I'll be back."
Originally, he stood up and walked away, his woman was in tears, but he turned back and said this aloud.
His woman smiled, so happy, so brilliant, as brilliant as a peach blossom!

Ashes of Time quotes

  • Ou-yang Feng: [to a potential customer] For all these years, there must be some people who you don't want to mention or you don't want to meet again. Because they did something really awful to you. Maybe you want to kill them. But you dare not. In fact, it's really easy to kill a person. Not difficult at all. I have a friend who is great at solving problems. But he has been a little short lately. If you can give him some money, he must be able to solve your problems. Indeed you can think my proposal over. But be quick!

  • Ou-yang Feng: If you don't want to be turned down by people, the best way is to turn them down first.
