Falling in love with someone can be easy at times, and difficult at other times.
It's weird. But it is also strange that it seems that we are all self-emotional monsters. Many times we do not know ourselves very well, but we long for someone to understand ourselves.
In life, everyone can't escape the temptation, just like: I and you, men and women, can't escape love.
Just imagine what a good relationship looks like?
A casual encounter, an unexpected heartbeat, a shy and sincere confession, a flood of passion, uncontrollable crankiness, hesitancy to approach but shrinking back, desperate courage, determination after emotional cooling...
Today I recommend such a classic French love movie - "A Man and a Woman"
This French romance is full of French flavors: simple, casual, fascinating; lazy and romantic, lonely and beautiful, elegant and moving...
The two protagonists are very eye-catching, and the more they look, the more flavorful they are.
The heroine, Anouk Aimee, has a charming temperament and is known for her detachment and detachment in the film industry. She has participated in Fellini's "La Dolce Vita" and "Eight and a Half" and other films.
The male protagonist, Jean-Louis Tradignan, the handsome old man in Haneke's "Love", is charming in old age and even more handsome in his youth.
This film is Claude Le Roouche's famous work that shocked the world film industry, also known as "Men's Love".
It tells a simple but touching love story, but through the poetic language of the lens, the delicate and rich emotional capture, the unpredictable erotic resonance, the shooting is extremely charming, and it has made generations obsessed with it.
A man meets a woman, falls in love, gets married, and has children. This kind of thing happens every day, is it ordinary?
ordinary. But uniquely, the one you love.
For us, a loved one is special, charming, and has an irreplaceable quality of its own.
The story takes place in an ordinary town in France. Two middle-aged men and women who are also widowed meet because of picking up their children, and the woman takes the man's car home.
In the car, they naturally chatted, opened up their hearts by talking about children and family, and had a good conversation.
In fact, a man fell in love with a woman almost at first sight. He invited her to visit the child next week, and said to her politely that he wanted to see her husband.
She told him that her husband had died in an accident, which was a contrast to the time she had described before about being in love with her husband, but she said it calmly, as if her husband would come back, and he was more interested in this woman now...
In the end, the woman gave the man her own phone number.
The man is a race car driver, his wife left him because of a car accident, and despite being famous and popular, the relationship never progressed until he met the woman.
Soon, they met again. They took their children to eat together, and went for a walk on the beach together. On the beach, the breeze was charming, the seagulls flew, and their hearts were constantly pulled by the contact of words and deeds.
On the way, they saw an old man and a dog swaying away happily.
Looking at this beautiful scene, they thought of a sentence that the sculptor Jie Akamedi once said: "If I choose to save a famous painting or a cat in the event of a fire, I would rather choose a cat. In the end, I will save it from the fire. Let it go."
Between art and life, Akamedi chose life. What is even more touching is that he has not gone to selfish possession, but has returned the original freedom of animals.
Soon after, the man was out for a car race, and the woman saw him on the news and sent him a telegram, with a postscript saying, "I love you."
The man desperately traveled through the unknown for three thousand miles in the dark night to find a woman, just to see her sooner.
This scene is reminiscent of Ivey, who also rented a car to fly 3,000 miles in "Annie Hall", just to see Annie as soon as possible. The concentration of emotions is sometimes so intoxicating.
Along the way, the man was carrying out intense psychological activities, and he affirmed her courage: she had the courage to confess, what a charming woman.
He couldn't help rehearsing the scene when they met in his mind again and again. The madness and heat of falling in love is itself the charming side of love. It's real, cute, and resonant.
Naturally, after some hardships, in the end, the man found a woman on the beach. This is very common, but the wonderful thing is the way the director presents it next.
They ran towards each other and hugged each other tightly. The man was holding the woman in a circle, accompanied by cheerful music and the sound of cheerful children, the world was spinning happily.
Interestingly, what appeared at this time was the dog that kept running, and it was happily dancing on the beach...
It's a pretty neat deal: it seems, everything in the world is celebrating love.
Next, it is natural to applaud for love, and this sex scene has no meaning of romance, and it is quite beautiful.
They explore, roam, and kiss each other, and the man is immersed in it, trying to taste the full flavor of love.
But the woman has a good memory of the past with her former husband in her mind...
She couldn't get rid of the past completely. The sweetness of the new love made her feel more painful. In the end, she chose to go back alone by train.
Sometimes, it is not a good thing for a person to have a good memory, and it may cause troubles in love like Huang Yaoshi.
Is it to choose the temperature within reach, or to take pictures in every possible way, the past that haunts your heart?
Women are caught in the dilemma of choosing a new love or forgetting an old one.
Different selves, entangled endlessly, made her heart uneasy.
The man looked in disbelief and couldn't help but sighed to himself: "Some beautiful Sundays don't end well. It's unbelievable, only a lunatic would refuse happiness."
The man began to ask his heart: Do I love her or not?
Perhaps, love is the moment when there are many heart-wrenching and tossing and turning, entangled in people's hearts, and the heat is inexhaustible, making people have the urge to break free and hug each other. Otherwise, just think about it, if both parties keep a calm distance and get along as gentlemen, then they can only be buddies.
Well, since you can't cut off the past, let me help you build our new memories.
So the man raced against time like a racing car, catching up with the woman before she got off the bus, and the woman couldn't refuse his enthusiasm, they hugged tightly at the station...
A man falling in love with a woman is a beautiful thing in itself. Besides, what else to expect?
In the turbulent city, the ordinary life, there are countless moments that make people feel like they are not alive, and at this moment, their love exudes eternal light, just like Li Qiao and Li Xiaojun in "Sweet Honey" The moment of meeting on the streets, the taste of love that flashed:
Men and women who are struggling in the world still cherish the desire for love and relive the shocking surprise that love brings.
Two equally lonely men and women, troubled by life, and attracted by the moment, know each other and love each other, put together to make love so beautiful.
Although, we don't know how long this love will last, but existence is good.
This is not only reminiscent of the current love, but the love in the Internet age is a little pitiful, and it is easy to disappear in reality, making people a little envious of the good times in the past...
Love is complicated, mixed with various indescribable emotions and thoughts. When facing love, everyone's attitude is different. Some people are open and enthusiastic, some people are reserved, and some people are hesitant. There are lunatics who can't stop in love, and of course there are "fools" who are desperate for love, trying to seize their own happiness.
So, man, be a little bit selfish for your love, be a little bit braver, why not.
Also, remember, when you can still have it, you still have to learn to forget properly.
