It's really mysterious and interesting to see Mudd after many years. The subtle emotional ties between characters, religion and morality, desire and responsibility, love and sex are all entangled in front of the audience. I think most of my friends who can discuss these issues with me in the middle of the night stay in China. This is really enviable in France. Everyday people grab one and they can start high-quality thinking and conversations, although this kind of discussion is often for the sake of pleasure. I used to call it the spiritual masturbation of cheese molecules. Today, I compress my former selves into solid pieces and place them in a corner of my new me to free up time and possibility for the present. And in the middle of the night, in the afternoon, when slightly drunk, like the brick tea that I often drank in Xining when I was a child, I brought out the taste of memories. I want to come to Mude to deal with all kinds of old loves in a similar way~

My Night at Maud's quotes

  • Maud: You do shock me.

    Jean-Louis: So you've said.

    Maud: You're the most outrageous person I've met. Religion has always left me cold. I'm neither for nor against it. But people like you prevent me from taking it seriously. All that really concerns you is your respectability. Staying in a woman's room after midnight is dreadful. It would never occur to you to stay because I'm lonely. To establish a slightly less conventional relationship even if we should never meet again. This I find stupid - very stupid and not very Christian.

    Jean-Louis: It's nothing to do with religion. I just thought you might be tired.

    Maud: Do you still think so?

  • Maud: What I don't like about you is that you always dodge the issue. You don't face up to things. A shamefaced Christian combined with a shamefaced Don Juan.
