from OST.
It's not the best movie I've ever seen, but it's the most serious movie I've ever watched. It answers a lot of my questions about love, although I don't think it gets to the heart of sublimation fully.
The best part is that Grandma Mai "debunked" the greatest love fairy tale of the last century for us.
It turns out that behind love is not only support and understanding, but also some not-so-good things, such as material things and selfishness... Wallis can be regarded as a careerist, and Grandma Mai did not intend to beautify her as a saint: she has to go to a party if she has a severe cold , The beautiful Cartier, the exquisite teacup, Edward's escape after his abdication... She has such an "imperfect" place. Edward may also have used her to escape that royal cage. Seemingly full of false feelings, how did they maintain their marriage for thirty-five years?
Here's the thing about wallis that impressed me the most. She always has the power to turn a bad hand into an MVP. When the scandal between her and Edward was flying all over the sky, pedestrians looked at her sideways, she just turned around and said to Wally: Get a life! Nothing can beat you unless you acquiesce! And in the end, when Edward was dying, she could still dance the dance of her youth. It was probably this kind of energy that made her resist the rejection of the whole world, get out of the situation of betrayal and separation, and overcome the disappointment of her husband caused by not having children... This kind of energy also made Wally get out of that dead marriage.
I thought, maybe marriage is not the grave of love, but needs another way of love. what do you think of love? is Yevgeny's question to Wally. The modern line is full of loopholes, the domestic abuser, the romantic and affectionate poor Russian intellectual, the woman lost in the life of a housewife... They are like paper people, forming the same thin plot: Encouraged by Wallis, the heroine bid farewell to the failed marriage and embraced new feelings. The last line seems to be the title: How much do women give up for marriage? There is an echo of the front of the modern line, and the Simpson line can only be understood by adding the letters behind it.
Generally speaking, as a film before the metoo era, it is quite good to look at marriage and love rationally. However, the editing is chaotic, and the two-line narrative echo is not strong. Serve the Dao and the episode, yyds!
Thinking about love is something we do all our lives.
