It's still the bright color of the logo, and I can't figure out how in his film, the red and blue match so beautifully, maybe this color has already penetrated into the bone marrow and is the temperament of the nation, so he is the national treasure director of Spain. . I don't know if it was intentional or not, a scene: the protagonist of the film Raymonda (played by Penelope Cruz) visits her aunt's neighbor with her daughter and sister. Three middle-aged women are sitting on the right side of the courtyard, and her daughter is on the left. , the color tone at this time is the cool color of the middle age and the warm color of the youth, and the separation is so clear that I wonder if Lao Ah is reminding women of the ruthlessness of the years.
It's still a mother-daughter relationship. This is Lao Ah's specialty. There are always "Love in High Heels" and "All About My Mother". It was only when we returned with Lao Ah that we discovered that the beauty was twilight. It's not just the woman who can't go back, but also the old man. Perhaps once the peak arrives, it will also indicate that the decline will not be long. Even if you find another way to use your past to talk about things, even if you tickle the audience's appetite and try again, this time is much inferior, a plain beginning, telling a plain mother-daughter family relationship, The misfortune and hard work in this are not so enjoyable, there is no way, who made us fans of Almodovar, nicknamed - Ah Fan.
The beautiful and kind-hearted Raymonda (described in the online story introduction) is a woman who is self-improving. The reason why she is called this is not only because she calmly handles the body of her husband who was murdered for attempting to rape her stepdaughter, but also because of her She took over the restaurant that her old friend let her sell on behalf of her, and started a small business. It's just that there is always something affecting her mood, her parents who died in a sea of flames in her early years, her daughter born out of wedlock, and an aunt with dementia. The introduction of the film became an ellipsis after returning from the soul of Raymonda's mother, and everyone's curiosity could not be raised. What will the return of this soul affect? It's a secret, as Auntie Neighbor said, a soul comes back because of an unfulfilled wish. For a mother, her biggest motivation may not be loneliness as she said, but thinking.
Almodovar should be regarded as a leading figure in feminist themes. There are few men in her stories. The busy, chaotic, confused and strong are all women. It seems that as long as they have each other by their side, they can support each other. Is this a quiet world without men? However, we finally see the marks left by men, betrayal or abandonment. They have a subtle influence, creating a story without them. A group of women who have to support themselves, relying on warmth to overcome difficulties all the way.
When I asked, I was curious about how the old man ended, the film ended, and some inexplicable plots were delayed and left for us to speculate. Everyone knows that they will not let the cruelty of reality swallow up these kind women, they will eventually be happy and get the love and mercy of God for them.
Almodóvar wrote in a note on "Return": "In a sense, I returned to comedy; I returned to the world of women; I returned to La Macha; I returned to life and stories The role of the source."
