I like the way they say goodbye

Netease Cloud pushed a song to me, Loving strangers, the theme song of a movie, with a hint of laziness and sadness, falling in love with the style and romance of strangers.

Give me a coin
give me a coin
And I'll take you to the moon
I will take you to the moon
Now give me a beer
now please give me a beer
And I'll kiss you so foolishly
I'll kiss you like a fool

Many times I feel that the movie has little to do with its theme song. Instead, some unsightly prying into the beautiful bodies of the two women on the cover of the music led me into this film.

At the beginning, the top shot, the two women held hands and pulled slightly, but it was a game, and the result was that Natasha was willing to enter Alba's hotel room. An obvious foreshadowing, Alba's room balcony has three flagpoles, but only two flags, what will they hang?

After entering the room, a few words of dialogue, a light kiss, a few words of retreat, a few words of encouragement, the relationship moved towards expectations. At this time, Natasha was just curious about the woman Alba in front of her, and how much she could do about the night two strange women spent in a hotel room in Rome. Perhaps the wine she drank in the bar made her drunk, and there was a sense of pleasure and satisfaction in breaking through the constraints of such a curious attempt. But she was awake, and she was able to get out of her body just after a few tastes. So she went, after Alba slept.

The phone was left under the bed in the room. Natasha turns back. Alba stayed. I'm sorry for leaving without saying goodbye to herself, and she was confident that she had retreated all at once, and the good experience Alba gave her made her stay. Maybe she also fell in love with this beautiful room, the exquisite murals and decorations of the gods, the large balcony and the wide view, and she felt very comfortable to stay in it.

The two strange women, who were shy about concealing their identities at the beginning, gradually became frank, and finally, without reservation, told each other the most broken secrets in their hearts. The emotional line is very delicate and the rhythm is good, but when the dawn breaks, you have to say goodbye.

I like the way they say goodbye:

· Raise the white sheets as a flag.

· Greet the sunrise together, watch the beautiful morning in the city, and have breakfast on the balcony.

· With eyes closed, reach out to each other, and if they don't touch each other, they disperse. What kind of tension and anticipation are the two people holding out their hands on both sides of the table! With both hands touching the other side of the table, Natasha opened her eyes and grabbed Alba's hand. Both laughed.

Alba invites Natasha into the bathtub one last time. Natasha refused. Alba collapsed in the bathtub in great pain, and vaguely saw Cupid on the fresco shoot at her, an arrow in the chest. Natasha pulled the arrow out. Blood stained bathtub. Dreamy and romantic.

· Natasha gets into the tub, and the two women tumble for the sake of tumbling, very happy.

· Echoes the scene from the top shot at the beginning. The two women held hands and gradually let go, one on each side.

Personally, I think it's a very fine and beautiful film. Although she is naked, she doesn't feel pornographic. Emotion has nothing to do with gender, what is valuable is resonance. Two people, one room, pure. Murals, sculptures, retro literature and art in the room. Great music, Jocelyn Pook's mysterious melancholy, loving strangers hit the mark. Lighting and shooting are delicate. As for the peeping at the beautiful body at the beginning, it is satisfied. The real sex is only a few minutes, and it feels elegant and beautiful.

The content of the murals and various languages ​​in the film, but the author's knowledge is too shallow, except Cupid and English, all know nothing. There is a scene in it, two paintings that are a century old are gazing at each other. I can only feel the beauty of such a time span and meet again, but if I can be specific to these two paintings, I will have a deeper feeling.
