It's hard to say how much to expect from a Chinese co-produced film. The Countess, which celebrates the centenary of Chinese cinema, is a typical negative example. Nondescript script, sluggish acting, poor English general manager It makes people feel unnatural.
As soon as I heard about the filming of in October last year, I was also given this preconceived subjective impression.
The second time the word "veil" appeared in my mind was this year at the Center> In the previous trailer, the short trailer is not enough to subvert my indifference to the joint venture film, but its elegant and beautiful piano concerto and the pictures of the hero and heroine boating among the green mountains and rivers still left a deep impression on me. Not to mention Edward Norton and Naomi Watts left a very deep impression on me in and <21 Grams>.
For today's premiere at Shanghai Cinema and only a 20-person show I didn’t have any extravagant expectations for the screening in the small hall, but when I arrived at the studio, I found that the ticketing situation was abnormally poor. All the passengers were basically deceived by the bright and dazzling golden armor, which just happened to complete my journey of concept revision. Judging from the final result, the past me has always been covered by a wrong veil. The delicacy of the film, the value of thinking and the breakthrough performance of the actors make this film an uncompromising classic. .
is a romantic film with a strong Chinese color, although the background is in the turbulent cholera period, but it still continues the eternal theme of love.
The beginning of the story seems to be the end of love, the taciturn husband Walter ( Norton (played by Norton) and his restless wife Kitty (played by Watts) are so incongruous between the intertwined farmland and the single world around them, the irritability of the heart, the regret of the past, and the confusion of the future. It appeared on each other's faces. They
hurriedly stepped into a love that was not fulfilling and realistic, and suddenly came from the center of the prosperous world to a strange country where the language was completely incomprehensible. Coupled with such an incomprehensible husband, cheating was the only one. A way to release his emotions. Walter, who discovered his adultery, resolutely asked Kitty to follow him to a small village where cholera was rampant to practice medicine, punishing her and torturing himself with a hard and dangerous life.
From feeling God's injustice to total disappointment in life and seeking relief. Kitty's bright eyes look so gray.
From vowing to work hard to make each other happy to being silent in the face of infidelity, Walter uses his hands Come to clear this dark cloud and realize the redemption of your soul.
From the prosperous city to the barren mountain village, away from the noisy dance party, close to the beautiful nature under the messy veil. The gray love seems to be dying. Only the same What lies behind is the true beauty of humanity under the heavy veil.
Facing ignorant people and angelic children, even a stone-hearted heart will become tender as water, not to mention two souls who are destined to depend on each other
. When the angle began to look at each other, there were also small holes in the deep veil.
Walter became cute, and even if he was still so silly, but "still had a hand at cards".
Kitty became full. , even though she will never be as perfect as Walter imagined, but she is so real, so beautiful and moving.
Delicate love comes from a long stream of water, Walter no longer stares at the wall and the table all day long, after the rebirth, he is So full of vitality.
Kitty is no longer indulged in past fantasies and lamentations about reality, and every spiritual effort makes her eyes brighter.
When love is resurrected, life is reborn. The light dispels the shadow of infidelity, and even the product left by infidelity now seems to be God's gift to those who have lost their way.
Beautiful love is often short-lived, God has eyes, cholera is ruthless.
When each other Falling in love again but facing a heavier veil, a veil that can never be crossed.
Love comes so late, but leaves so hurriedly...
Lift the veil and suddenly see the light.
