Don't catch people, don't move, don't understand

Basically I don't understand it, maybe the translation is not good, maybe I'm not paying enough attention. In short, this is not the kind of movie that can hold me tightly.

1. Benino's love for Alicia doesn't move me. He fell in love with Alicia; Alicia was in a vegetative state in a car accident; he happened to be her nurse, and it became his job to take care of Alicia he had a crush on, and Alicia's body was so attractive. This kid finally made Alicia pregnant, which can only be said to be a kind of abnormal love. You can't say what's so great about this kid.

2. I don't quite understand the friendship between Mark and Benino. It was Benino's infatuation with Alicia, and the "Tell her" that he knew he couldn't do moved Mark? There seems to be something more than friendship between the two men.

3. Why is Mark so sentimental? What's the story between him and his ex-wife? I didn't get it, probably because of inattention.

4. The music is really beautiful, but it seems to be a little too much, a bit deliberately creating a feeling of sadness. Generally speaking, it is quite sincere, not the kind of coercion of Wong Kar Wai.

5. It's better to see this kind of unrequited love or Zweig's novels.

    That silent film is the footnote: selfless love to give everything and even one's own life, even if it will (and must) appear a very perverted appearance.

    A delicate and perfect movie starts with a poster. 1. Heartbreaking secret love and infatuation, the sympathy of two lonely men. 2. Sleeping beauty = a speechless woman, just like the sleepwalker in the opening [Muller Café]. 3. With the metaphor of silent film [shrinking lover], devote oneself to love and return to the mother body. 4. Gender reversal: weak and affectionate men and women bullfighters. 5. The soundtrack is immersive, especially the somber [pigeon]. 6. The composition and details are admired, the lava lamp. (9.5/10)
