Don Juan DeMarco

I don't know why, I suddenly remembered watching a movie, Don Juan DeMarco, so I found it and watched it weakly. Don Juan DeMarco, the 1995 film starring Johnny Depp and Marlon Brando, has two Chinese translations: "This man is a bit lustful" and "Natural love mad". I don't think the two names are very appropriate, but the literal translation of Don Juan can't express the meaning of the original text. It's a dilemma. The first time I saw this movie was when I was in college and thought Johnny Depp was a very interesting guy. As I watched more of his films, I became more and more fond of this eccentric person. Johnny Depp and Tim Burton have collaborated on many films, and it is Tim Burton who shaped Depp: from their first film, Edward Scissorhand, until the later cartoon Corpse Bride. Depp showed off his Spanish accent in Don Juan DeMarco, and it seemed to be really interesting. Marlon Brando is also very good, playing a very interesting psychiatrist. A movie worth watching. In fact, there is another good thing about the movie, which is the soundtrack. The theme song of the movie is Bryan Adams' masterpiece, Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman, a song full of Spanish flair. A lot of the words in the lyrics appear in the movie, I don't know if the song comes first or the movie script first. I always thought that the flamenco guitar in the song was played by Adams, and I admired him very much; later I learned that it was a buddy from a guitar family named Paco De Lucia, no wonder. Bryan Adams has written songs for three films, all of which have been successful theme songs. Best known is Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves Robin Hood's Everything I Do I Do It For You, followed by the song Have You Really Loved a Woman, probably the song Have You Really Loved a Woman, and the song for The Three Musketeers, All For Love, and Sting, Rod Working together with Stewart, the hoarse voices of the three half-old men were quite coordinated, the whole for one and one for all. Watching this movie, the melody of Adams has been echoing in my mind, but every now and then I can think of a song by Eagles: Pretty Maids All in a Row

Don Juan: There are only four questions of value in life, Don Octavio. What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same: only love.

Don Juan: By seeing beyond what is visible to the eye. Now there are those, of course, who do not share my perceptions, it's true. When I say that all my woman are dazzling beauties, they object. The nose of this one is too large; the-the hips of another, they are too wide; perhaps the breasts of a third, they are too small. But I see these women for how they truly are... glorious, radiant, spectacular, and perfect, because, I am not limited by my eyesight. Women react to me the way that they do, Don Octavio, because they sense that I search out the beauty that dwells within until it overwhelms everything else. And then they cannot avoid their desire, to release that beauty and envelope me in it. So, to answer your question, I see as clear as day that this great edifice in which we find ourselves is your villa. It is your home. And as for you, Don Octavio DeFlores, you are a great lover like myself, even though you may have lost your way and your accent. Shall I continue?
