Love is a warm bondage, and fighting to get rid of it is pain

There is a sentence in the film that perfectly explains the delicate relationship between David and Consula: "It seems that the collector buys the painting and owns the painting, but in fact the painting and the collector own each other.


" David began to pay attention to Consula, and then he slowly gained Consula's heart while he was afraid of losing it. Then the relationship changed subtly, and Consula also slowly desired and needed David's appreciation. They have each other and bind each other.
In the end, David gave up because he was afraid of losing.
Isn't this the same as the collector's mentality towards the work?
The discerning collector = David
's exquisite work = Consula

collectors are far away from the cherished work, but lose the light and splendor in their eyes when they own her.
The works think that she is forever precious, but without the most common sense of her collectors, the same light may not flash in the eyes of others. So, many years later, Consula said to David: There is no other man who loves and appreciates my body like you do.

They are destined to be together in order to find their own position, but people are complex and contradictory, and their fate is tortuous and changeable.

Love is a bondage, and fighting to get rid of it is pain, and in the end it becomes an elegy.
