Indeed, the reaction after reading it was extremely slow, and only after realizing it did I realize that the author wanted to express only a few words.
Thinking of a saying that has been said for a long time, people who pull the wind will not grow old, but will only die.
The way I understand it is to fulfill a wish without distraction. Only one in a lifetime.
Just like in 1900, La Feng died on the boat, but never aged on the mainland.
When 1900 gave up the girl, he was disappointed, but he stopped going ashore and went back to the piano.
So he continued to pull the wind and died without aging.
Dominic is struck by lightning, travels back in time, has super powers to learn everything with ease, and has time that would otherwise be lost.
As stated at the beginning of the film, he wants to complete a book, the only one in his life.
Dominic is not 1900, what prompted Dominic to give up was the Veronica he fell in love with.
He couldn't see her old age and was indifferent.
The self in Dominic's hallucination is the Dominic who has nothing else to do but will not age.
Until the end, Dominic lifted the chair and shattered the illusion in the mirror, the indifferent Dominic who had been so distracted.
Once, he lost Laura because of his undivided efforts for this book; now, still for this book, he will also lose Veronica.
Between ideals and feelings, Dominic chose feelings.
The person who is bound by emotions no longer pulls the wind, he grows old quickly, and the youth that does not belong to him retire from the scene. He died, in a vast expanse of snow.
We always need to find a balance between ideal and reality.
People who live only to pursue an ideal are indifferent and ruthless. Because his world is independent of the public world, it even seems a little proud and out of reach.
Colorful people in life, affectionate and kind. Living among the masses is destined to be hindered by different outlooks on life, values and even love, so that one's ideals will become unreachable things.
Which one should we choose?
If yesterday came, would you choose again?
If yesterday came, would you still want to go this way?
If yesterday came, would you be desperate for your ideals?
If yesterday came, could you still sacrifice everything for this ideal?
Youth without youth, at the moment of sudden old age or even death, you may regret your life's too stubborn persistence.
Do you still need one last rose?
