This director is very cunning, leaves a lot of questions, and walks away.
Let's talk about rhythm first. The control of rhythm is a big problem. For example, Inglourious Basterds' rhythm is flawless.
The rhythm of Talk to her is very appropriate. Benigno and Alyssa are certainly the main line, but Mark's story not only contrasts the other main line, but also makes the story unfold layer by layer, which makes people feel comfortable to watch.
In particular, I remember Mark going to prison to secure Benigno, polite inquiry, unhurried guidance and Mark's anxiety, so that the story still unfolds according to the director's ease. Kind of like The Reader.
Although Mark's story is a foil, in fact Mark and Benigno are weak men. Despite his handsome looks and enviable job, Mark is still not a bullfighter's favorite. What's more pitiful is that Mark stubbornly believes that he is the favorite of the bullfighter. In fact, he knew, but he couldn't bear it because of his self-esteem, and he refused to admit it. He chose to escape. He is selfish and wants to possess all the love of a person but refuses to give all the love for a person for free.
Benigno is stronger. He admits to being fat and sissy, but still bravely loves Alyssa, even daring to break into her room.
Benigno doesn't seem to look down on himself. He is happy to be a caregiver, and even more happy to be Alyssa's caregiver, cleaning every inch of her skin and telling her about different silent films and dramas.
He is also optimistic, believing that a miracle will happen. And left long hair for Alyssa.
He seemed selfless enough to give up everything for Alyssa.
But there is no doubt that he is still selfish. He couldn't give up Alyssa for Alyssa.
He is a good person, but being a good person for Alyssa has become his selfishness.
Of course, if Alyssa is moved to say "I do," then it's another play, Notre Dame.
However, Alyssa didn't say anything, she didn't even have the right to speak.
Benigno can give all his love for a person for free, and in the beginning, he is humble and doesn't seem to think about possession. But as he scrubbed Alyssa's body again and again, he seemed to feel that he was the one who knew Alyssa best, and it seemed that all of Alyssa's silences meant "willingness." Humbleness slowly diminished, and desire began to sprout.
It's like Yin Zhiping wrote Xiaolongnu's name over and over again, but in the end it tarnished her.
I like Benigno, firstly we always prefer Benigno because of the director's point of view, and secondly, Benigno is indeed a lovely person.
And Benino is not like Yin Zhiping.
However, he did defile Alyssa.
But love is not a shield.
Why don't you keep silent all the time?
If your love as love does not cause the other party to love you, and if you show your life as a lover without making yourself a loved one, then your love is powerless, and this kind of love is misfortune.
This is what Marx said.
In the end, Alyssa cut her hair short, and Alyssa and Mark ended up comically falling in love at first sight.
