When the ending song finally played slowly, it was like tasting a cup of mellow dark chocolate sauce, mixed with bitter and distressed tears, softening the instant death after fierce and silent struggle, mixed with brilliant and distant Italian sunshine . I think this is the movie that changed my life.
Although it is an unfamiliar Italy, the language is fast and even love is like a quarrel, unfamiliar historical background, unfamiliar social system, unfamiliar major events and meanings to every Italian youth. But it still feels so kind, a look, an expression, a cry, a death. I couldn't help crying with them, and I couldn't help bursting out in mildness and plainness with them. Watching the whole film is like having walked through the longest life, as if you have crossed the most tragic situation, as if you have seen the so-called real splendor. Brilliant, in the dullest, most passionate, most silent, most helpless and strongest days, brilliant.
The tone of the whole film is very gentle, and the narrative of the camera is like a gentle wind passing through every major event, only the quiet Sicilian sunshine, the dilapidated Roman streets, and the quiet Norwegian lake, contain every death, helplessness and pain. . Every major thing that happens, the camera and rhythm are still whispering, sliding slowly, there is no intense pain or intense joy, but the heart is pounding passionately. I want to take the memory of my life as it really slowly stretches out. Anything that I thought was unbearable at the time would appear so soft in the length of my life, like Zhenren in melted chocolate, giggling, but Unusually evocative. Life is like a calm and serene river, slowly pushing time forward and softening memories. For the first time, I have experienced this kind of tenderness that is calm like water, but violently hits my heart. A long and strong aftertaste.
Sometimes I feel so small and humble, stubborn and pessimistic about the little things and troubles in my life. A single leaf can't see Mount Tai. In the movie, even if the pain is so deep, even if the ordeal is so difficult to overcome, but from youth to gray hair, time just goes by the way, even if you are buried in tears and can't move forward , time will also slowly stagger through with your hand, crossing every dead end that looks like a wall, and opening every door that looks like a cliff. It is not the regrets and memories alone that make people persevere, it is the connection and love between people and people, so that every aching heart can see the hope ahead, it is the love between family members, it is the love between lovers, it is the love between friends , is hope for life, is hope, brings strength. is hope.
Still brooding about Madio's death, still brooding about that late phone call, still brooding about Zuozhen's autism, still brooding about the incurable scars that politics brought to the family. There are many regrets and helplessness, the cruelty of the director, and the imperfection of life. However, one film critic said it well:
"Everyone in the film is so beautiful, beautiful but not fake. I think the director is really a kind person, can be said to be tender. He makes the radical Julia play Get a good piano, make the irascible Mateo a book lover, let Merina get a son after losing Mateo, and let Nicolas find love again after her daughter leaves. He scrutinizes, sculpts, and comforts every tossing and turning Soul, make you feel that the world can get better, is getting better, and will get better - as long as you don't give up anyone around you, as Nikolai's father reminded you, and discover their It's touching. Like Nikolai's father said to Nikolay, "You have to let Julia play the piano, tell her how wonderful she is, and you have to say, Julia, play for me", like Nikolai who has lived through life La finally understood this truth and said to Anzu, "Tell her how cute she is"."
"I love you so much, I won't really fall out with you", telling the comedy and tragedy of the world The secret of bifurcation.
A lot of times, you think what you do is out of love, but it's not enough. Other times, you're too busy loving human beings and rebelling against the system you're dissatisfied with, but forgetting to love the one next to you a person.
Neither Madio nor Julia had gone into this. They all tried to change the world around them through political struggle, and found that the premise of political struggle is to grasp the truth, and no one in this world has grasped the truth exactly. Julia became more and more radical in the left-wing movement of the 1960s, abandoned her family to a terrorist organization, engaged in assassination work, and ended up in prison, but the world did not get any better. Madio has spent his entire life battling stereotypes and ugly systems, from dead examiners to brutal mental hospitals, from high-ranking military to shady police stations, but he is smashed to the core, in a On New Year's Eve, he jumped from the balcony to the fireworks that burst out of the window. "
The person who can't be erased deeply in his mind is Madio, that is my favorite character, and man. I believe that everyone who sees it will deeply plant the shadow of Madio in their hearts. Also for myself life, and planted this splendor with the darkness and fireworks.
I think, I will never forget this movie.
