Love, time, and Orlando

I don't know on that day, I saw another review of Woolf's Orlando on "Book City", I recalled the movie clips I watched when I was young, I remembered the mood at that time, I remembered the past time, I remember a lot. .
It was a program that introduced foreign movies. The young heart felt that the plot was good-looking and luxurious, especially in the end, when Aurora, the god of love, sang over the big oak tree where she read books in Orlando, she was very happy.
Many years have passed, and many things have been forgotten, but Orlando does come to my mind from time to time. When I was alone, when I was depressed, when there was no hope, I thought of Orlando who had traveled 400 years in time. Year, what will it feel like?
The song "and i love you so" by an unknown female singer is playing in my ears. The singing is soothing, and after a pause, it seems to be telling me the question I have been thinking about - Orlando's mood, alone, lonely Shameful, isn't it? Will the person in the dream appear in the future?
Maybe Orlando doesn't have to think about this issue, he just needs to wait quietly for his fate, write a book of centuries, think about the problems of centuries, and spend day after day quietly, alone, and slowly.
Looking back on the things of youth, it seems that there is only happiness in my heart, but I know that there is still sorrow. Maybe time is the antidote to the sorrow, and it will be resolved little by little, otherwise how could Orlando have lived the luxurious and slow-moving 400 years . . . . . . .

    free. natural. A simplified epic of society, people, women. The reciprocating panning mirror toasting and the hand-held lost changing point of view in the garden time flies...

    Faithfully adapt the original work, retain the main plot (except for the reason for being an ambassador and the order of appearances of the Grand Duke), and divide the 400-year time into seven chapters, which is conducive to the transition of time and space. After all, many omitted words cannot be explained clearly in more than 90 minutes; yes People who have no sense of this film recommend to read the original book, and don't talk about gender; saying that Tilda Swinton is ugly is also drunk, and the absolute best performer.
