has told others many times, the one I remember most is Xu Anhua The one sentence I have said is this one, I can't forget it.
In terms of shooting techniques and style, this is not a good movie. But there will still be tears in several places. I think this is the power of the story itself. It is the result of an individual who is in the most helpless state in his life and puts another person in the same position.
Literary works are more extreme than reality. It pushes the context of the story to an even worse situation: "If a linguistics professor suffers from Aztheimer's disease in the season when his career and family are at his best, he will lose what he is most proud of. What will happen if you lose your ability to take care of yourself and lose your dignity?"
Choose euthanasia or suicide? When the dignity has not been completely lost, make a complete break?
The movie slapped you with a big slap: At this time, you have lost even the ability to commit suicide.
This is a very personal story, you can reflect on yourself at any time, because this situation may happen to everyone.
When you forget you, are you still you?
The movie leaves a warm tail. Alice, who has completely lost her memory and self-care ability, can recognize "love" after listening to the story her daughter has read to her. This is a detail that contradicts the facts.
Also facing "Aztheimer's disease", Haneke gave an opposite treatment in "Love", where the old man personally ended his wife's life.
This is where this story is relatively clichéd and particularly helpless. When she is no longer her, who is this love given to?
I especially like a sentence in the original book: I miss myself.
A lifetime, a lifetime, meaningful, is still the word "I".
