A sudden car accident, a piano falling from the sky. Everything is restless, heralding a wild love.
The story always starts when a man meets a woman. Barry took a fancy to Lena at once, but he was so shy that he didn't dare to say anything to her. He picked up the piano in enthusiasm. He didn't understand, nor did he know why he did it.
Although Barry had a successful career, he was born in a family of seven sisters and was under great pressure. Even if a small party is held, all the sisters will call for consultation. Whether it is a noisy phone ring or offensive music, this movie always makes us feel the emotional changes of the male protagonist.
The nightmare scene in the party, not only through the processing of the sound, but also the firmly framed picture, and the untimely jokes, you can feel Barry's mental confusion. He hated such an environment and hated himself, so he broke the glass.
This kind of nightmare does not mean that you have experienced direct violence or bullying, you care too much, you will have no freedom and full of pressure. He often cries for no reason and is unable to communicate normally with others. Every time he falls in love, his family will watch closely.
So Barry wanted to be free from this life and wanted to do something different. He picked up the piano on the side of the road, went to the supermarket to collect pudding, and flew for kilometers. Although from the story point of view, this film is very simple, but many of the stories in it are real stories, some come from the director’s experience, and the most important thing is to convey a certain feeling.
When everything is pressed against Barry, he always likes to back off unconsciously. When he got up early one day, he changed into a new blue suit. This day, the red Lena, arrived as scheduled. It was not easy for them to meet officially for the first time: falling objects outside, noisy phones, and people walking around made them unable to express their inner self.
Lena has already experienced an unhappy marriage, so she knows that she is sincere and the best in her heart. Therefore, she in red is more active and more proactive. She took the initiative to call Barry, offered an invitation, and waited for Barry to move forward bravely.
The music keeps circulating, you need me, you need me, you need me, you need me. If he can't see her, his world will never be peaceful.
The two finally met in a strange city, and the crowd walked around, only the two of them were hugging there quietly. This freeze frame became the poster of the movie, and because of this poster, I chose this movie.
Another sudden car accident changed their relationship. Barry now has love in his heart, extremely strong, blue beam, and stronger body. Everything is like a ghost film and a science fiction film. This kind of intuitive and mixed feeling, I think this is the complexity and sweetness of love.
