No one can resist it... When Bent and Verona sat side by side on the old steps mottled like Rowena's memory, when the refreshing sea breeze passed the wide river, fiddled with his fluffy curls, and fluttered on her. Eyes full of tears, when the two clasped each other's palms tightly... At this time, the background music quietly slipped to a climax, instantly drowning people into this warm picture, and into the two stories in front of them. In the sweet smile of the lover.
The story originally started with a child.
Bent and Rowena are a free-spirited couple. After having children, their lives began to change - they began to carefully debate whether they were "fuckingups", they began to reflect constantly, they no longer allowed life to be so chaotic, they began to try to reach a better Superior environment - for the birth and growth of children.
Relocating for the son, the story is based on the responsibility of the two unmarried parents to the family.
The duo's itinerary seems to always revolve around five different cities in search of clues to parenting tutorials. And almost all those who visit are couples who already have children (natural or adopted). The Allen couple in Madison reminded them in a perverted and unbearable way of their comprehensive plan for their children's future health; while Montreal's classmates have a lively and happy big family that Rovina is very envious of, but behind the bright surface is Luo On the dark bar stage, Na was swaying sadly and dancing a moving dance, counting down the near-desperate heartbreak after the fifth miscarriage. The crystallization of love and the opportunity to nurture it in person is a very precious gift from God; Annabelle, the girl in Miami who had just been ruthlessly abandoned by her mother, was still singing cheerful songs to Rovina, while her father hesitated as to how to tell her Mom left them, no one to remind her that her hair was not done or the juice from her lips was clean, even if Bent called her mother's friends to no avail, after the frustration of not being able to help the cook, Rovina quickly found her place - yes, they will also have a lovely daughter, so the only thing they can do is never leave him.
So, in the quietest night, the two of them lay down on the soft spring bed, their faces snuggled up so close, and they made a promise, a solemn and romantic vow that will take on a family, witnessed by the evening wind .
This film also reveals people's views on love and marriage to a certain extent. Lily and Lauer are discussing marriage, and the Rhones are also narrating their views on marriage. Rovina has always refused Bent's marriage proposal, perhaps because she is afraid of the embarrassment of not having her parents at the wedding, perhaps because she has not sorted out her mind to provoke the burden of the marriage, perhaps because so many others have negatively portrayed marriage. "No one loves each other like we do, what should we do ...
" When I heard Rovina sob to Bent like this, my heart clenched and hurt inexplicably. This "nothing" couple can't deny that they are a natural couple. One look or one action is enough to let the other party fully understand what they mean. Such a tacit understanding is admirable. Their love is not vigorous, not romantic and gorgeous, just like a pure white flower, blooming on the branches, fresh and natural and moving. However, it will never bear the fruit of marriage.
However, when Rowena said to Bent that she would never marry him, but she promised to stay by his side forever, the hardships of the two of them suddenly appeared in my mind - I think of Rowena When crying lonely in that helpless night, Bent hugged her heartily: "We'll be fine..."; I remembered that in the irritable and vibrating carriage, Rowena was distressed by the loss of her body caused by pregnancy When he complained in frustration that he was getting uglier, Bent expressed his heart anxiously: "I will always love you, even if you become huge, even if it takes you a few months or a year to lose weight, even if you have Getting fatter after the baby...even if you're so fat that I can't find your vagina..." Bent can always come up with a funny way to stretch Rovina's frown, and always patiently accompany Rovina in time. She used her thick shoulders to shield Rowena from the wind and rain... Perhaps, when these two passionate young people embarked on this long journey, they still did not understand the reality of love, and did not expect a small thing. Being born will bring so many thoughts, and I am far from realizing that my feelings can evolve into such a strong support. It is a promise to the other half, the ultimate oath of love, and a test of maturity for myself.
And at this moment, is there any meaning contained in marriage that has not been covered by their love? In the years to come, they will always be with each other like this, but skip the wedding ceremony and avoid the possibility of love shrinking after being bound by marriage.
If Bent's parents' bizarre behavior and uncaring attitude make people bizarre, then Rowena's invisible parents test really makes us feel the warmth of family affection.
Not wanting to disappoint the hard-working father all the time, the mother led the children to tie the fruit to the branches with ropes, trying to "deceive" the father to make him feel relieved. It was a tacit understanding that only belonged to the family.
The appearance of her sister in the film always reminds Rovina to relive her memories of her parents. She always misses her mother's blue eyes, and she is looking forward to the baby's new birth... The blood is running, and at this moment, there is a child who will soon be in Rovina. was born in the womb.
Such is life, when he closes one door for you, he also opens another window for you. Rowena was deprived of parental love prematurely, but she has the opportunity to become a mother of a new life. She will be the greatest mother because she understands better what it means to be a mother to a child.
A bad director exposes your helplessness, a good director makes you see helplessness, a great writer makes you recognize your own archetype while realizing your helplessness, and the deepest pity pours out from the bottom of your heart, leading to heavy thinking .
Watching a movie is watching yourself.
After careful consideration of the entire film, if it only includes family, love, and affection, then it can barely be classified as a romantic film. This is not the case, and the helplessness of many middle-class people can still be seen in the film.
Bent and Rowena's small families continue to pull out families scattered in all directions, they are like microcosms of society - Bent must put on a strong old man's voice whenever he answers the phone to win customers. trust. After failing the two-way-choice interview, they really had nothing left, as was snarky at the Allen's the night before; Lily had been slapped with a life of complacency, but she was still insane. It was inadvertently revealed that "it's hard to break into the social circles here." In such an exclusive society, they seem to live a bitter life; and the Rhones' barrenness to the easy pregnancy of contemporary young people's sexual promiscuity is in the To a certain extent, it also implies the taste of the world.
The director is not satisfied with just expressing the mental journey of a pair of parents. He borrows the windows to show the back of the society.
The teacher's film shows the beautiful and the good, the ugly and the evil, so that the beautiful and the good are commended and promoted, and the ugly and the evil are publicly exposed, and "make a fool of yourself" in public.
Through this fan of windows, we can vaguely see our own figure, when we are filled with sudden disappointment, when we are beaten all over by undesired setbacks again and again, when we are confused to the point of being alone. When we were with us, when we found that everything was in vain after running around for such a long distance... Would we also like Rowena to close our eyes tiredly and quietly wait for Bent's silent hug to clean up the broken things? Mood, repacking, and set foot on the journey again.
"Husband, every one returns to its roots. Returning to the roots is called tranquility, and tranquility is called returning to life." The reason why this sentence in the Tao Te Ching is a classic is that it can be reflected in this movie. Even though it has been more than two thousand years, even if it has surpassed the river channel of that boundary, but in the eyes of the couple sitting on the bank of the Mississippi River, the wisdom of this old man is shining.
At the end of the film, they still returned to their original home... The place where even Rovina herself forgot how beautiful it is, where there is the most familiar scenery, the most intimate air, and the love that has always been alive in Rowena's life. The memories of parents and family, they bumped all the way, and finally sank their whole hearts at this point and placed them in their soft hearts-because, this is here, this is home.
Many works have finally returned to the origin, and found that they have the most appreciated scenery here. Like the pain of a weather-beaten child returning home, they came to their senses.
So I suddenly decided that the previous noise, the previous turmoil, and all the hustle and bustle were the foreshadowing of the final return to that moment. In this kind of waiting, the shadow of the society is reflected, and it has experienced the high development of industry, the increase of money, the improvement of status, the expansion of power... It can't fill the gap in my heart at all. After I am tired of chasing the world, I turn around. I found that what I needed most was just a place for my soul, and there should be the same color as the water and sky at the end of the film.
