The word romance has always been used a lot. In particular, it is used by many women to demand their men. When more and more girls, or married women, think that their other half is not romantic enough, the word "romantic" becomes more and more heavy and loses its original lightness and liveliness. Often associated with accusations and complaints, people hate it more and more.
What exactly is romance? Of course, it is not the candle shadow shaking red in the mundane sense, nor is it a rose and a diamond ring. It was an atmosphere, a subtle feeling between two people. But it is difficult to concretize and form a formula that everyone can imitate.
However, when I watched the 1995 movie "Walking in the Clouds", I still felt that the overall tone was exotic, cheerful and romantic. Although it involves a lot of heavy subject matter. Like soldiers who have experienced brutal wars, the healing and reconstruction of psychological trauma. Like the heroine, I just experienced the hurt and betrayal in love. Like that beautiful valley in the cloud, a century-old foundation was destroyed by a fire.
When a person reaches the age of a grandfather, like an old vine, how many winds, frosts, rains and snows must be experienced. In the film, Victoria's grandfather is still romantic. He is the god assist of this granddaughter's love. When Paul suddenly appeared at home and was suspected and scrutinized, as the head of the family, he was the first to accept it. The first time, when Paul was about to leave, the old man stopped him in time. Also took him for a walk to learn about the history of the family. Go to the vine that the ancestors brought back and tell him that it was their source of life and that it would be Paul's root. He knew that for Paul, who grew up in an orphanage, he had always lacked a sense of belonging and had been desolate in his heart. Victoria's grandfather was so loving and insightful. The old man became a jerk, and asked him naughty pieces of chocolate until he ate them all. And smiled slyly: "Now you can't go out and sell chocolate."
The second time, when Paul was about to leave and his relationship with Victoria was strained, it was Victoria's grandfather who came forward in time. He told Paul that the relationship between men and women is like grapes, and it takes time. Drink wine with Paul and comfort him. And invited a small band around to teach Paul to sing local love songs. When Paul was drunk, the atmosphere was just right, and his grandfather suggested that he sing love songs under his granddaughter's window, accompanied by a band. The old man kept encouraging him: "When the light in her window is on, she will accept you again."
What a romantic old man.
Another impressive scene. When the grapes are harvested, people can't help dancing. The old grandfather watched his old wife preside over the ceremony and couldn't help but say, "She's so beautiful, isn't she?"
Even in his old age, he is still a handsome old gentleman, still admiring his beloved wife, and looking forward to his granddaughter to love and be loved.
Such an old man is not only admirable, but also humorous.
Lovely and interesting people are an invaluable resource at any age.
