Tommaso is the only grounded, complete person in the film. He sighed on the hospital bed, "I feel that there are so many things waiting for you to do." He is not narcissistic at all, he truly has the ability to love others, and wants to inspire the wisdom and strength of the person he loves, but he is in the The first person to die, he died young, leaving others to continue to waste time until the end of their lives. ironic. I think Tommaso is the solution to the dilemma this film presents. He is the purest person. Giovanni is Tommaso's contrast: a manly intellectual with a dignified appearance, charismatic, newly famous, with a promising future, in contrast to Tommaso's ailment-torn, time-limited embarrassment. He is pretentious, posturing, and snobbish with intellectual alienation, sarcasm, argument, boredom. He devoted himself to writing but could not write, "I know what to write but not how to It is precisely because of the emptiness in his heart that he is to be described as a kind of "mental crisis" common to writers, trying to appear attractive. But he cannot restrain himself in the face of novel passions, even if he does not participate in the obvious madness such as The carnival of the crowd is actually the same as the crowd, trying very snobbily to appear important, decent, and noble. Even if they sneer at the common things such as entertainment, carnival, and praise from the crowd, they long for fresh stimulation deep down in their hearts. Nothing else. He was so narcissistic, so fond of talking about himself, so contrary to Tommaso, which was pointed out directly by Lidia. He loved Lidia too, but that moment passed quickly, the feeling, the memory of that moment , the touch is also forgotten, "being used to this kind of life and becoming insensitive", in fact, he soon returned to complete narcissism, losing the ability to love a dynamic person. (Insensitive due to habit, This is shockingly true, showing how quickly people desensitize to love, and how overwhelming novelty can shatter the habitual, how can we be so insensitive to a living, dynamic person Why is love necessarily rotten and corrupt? If we don't love ourselves but love virtue and wisdom, can we always act, always be sensitive, always infectious? Just like Tommaso, his eyes are bright, his temperament is unchanged, and he strives to death. Writing.) Valentina, a man of wisdom, finds joy in insight but not clinging, "because I've never paid much attention to what I've written. "Don't talk about writing, just let me observe things is enough for me to be busy" and Giovanni thinks "it is a sin to waste such ingenuity", which is actually his view of himself, so he is narcissistic. It is necessary to show this talent to the world by writing to make herself important, and Valentina has a clear insight into the truth behind the motivation of writing, mocking Giovanni's type of intellectual: selfish and sentimental' , so I don't care about it. She was cynical and seemed alienated from all crazy and empty activity. But the truth is that she is not a happy game life, but feels pain most of the time, like a "lost dog", she can perceive this emptiness and emptiness. This is a rootless sober person. Relatively speaking, the male protagonist is a rootless self-deception person, and the others are rootless and unconscious people. Lidia, a woman who was enlightened but failed to gain true wisdom, was enlightened by Tommaso who loved her, but because of pressure and attracted by Giovanni, she finally gave up his love, this wrong decision made her live in a kind of " Feeling the sadness of life, but can't know the reason and can't liberate herself." In the state, she felt that her years were wasted, the party was empty, boring and false, love disappeared, and everything was meaningless... But She couldn't completely separate herself from the false life and build a foundation. She could only feel pity for herself and others. Love life with life, and the lives of two people will grow together and never stagnate.
