Critics say the film is suitable for middle-aged people.
The man stood in front of the window with a very shy old lonely back, outside the window was the pattering rain~
There is nothing more worrying than this.
But looking at the back,
it turns out that this is not a story about a mid-life crisis or a strange middle-aged uncle or the seven-year itch.
It's about love itself.
Just like "Lan Yu" is also about love itself, that's all. (Sorry, I'm talking about the original "Beijing Story")
Yes, that's what makes me happiest about this movie,
it's love itself,
it's not a story of a knowledgeable old professor and an ignorant schoolgirl,
there's nothing in it "Worship", "Electra", "Lolita", "obscene"... a mess of impurities;
but there are "jealousy", "tears", "attachment", "ears and temples", "lies", " Out of control"
...and the seaside, the darkroom, and of course SEX (not pretending to be a B, but for fear of getting caught)
plus,
if Ben Kingsley always uses Sartre's language to talk about love, it's screwed Yes ,
but he didn't,
the beautiful breast is "this is the most beautiful breast I've ever seen" (not pretending to be a B, I'm afraid of being caught by a river crab), not Venus Helen or any other expression about the worship of matrilineal reproduction;
"As long as you're panicking, you can call me"
"I was just passing by to see a friend and stop by to see you"
"Want to go to the opera?"
…
um~~~~ That's love itself .
The only problem with their love,
aside from the man's need to act in harmony with the values of the Puritan life,
is the 30 years of age sandwiched between the two.
Not only does the man always want to use this as an excuse to end the relationship, but
even the director thinks that this is an insurmountable problem,
so in the end, he ingeniously makes the woman get cancer, and forcefully puts
the distance between the two of them. Pulling closer, the
woman said: Now I think I'm older than you.
Well~~~ everyone is relieved, now they can finally be together.
I liked the look of Ben Kingsley, an old man,
a moderate and shrewd rational middle-aged man,
if only pagans were like this.
Penelope Cruz
was stunned. When her photos in the darkroom were revealed, they were about to become immortals~~
Ahem, in the end, love is:
"scatter, scattered
those things that appear
and sometimes disappear. Falling.
Those who can't be caught
are the real ones."
