about love about faith

Just finished reading this story. If conditions permit, I will sit quietly in the classroom for half an hour to sort out my mixed emotions. I think three words can be used to describe this La's movie: heavy taste. Not just visually, but spiritually and ideologically.
Maybe it's the role of psychological cues. From the beginning of the film, I was prepared to be shuddering with sadness. Whether it is the heroine's happy face or the lively foreshadowing at the wedding, there is a little weird atmosphere. Sure enough, everything collapsed with Jan's accident. Jan is paralyzed, life is better than death. It seems to be a bit of a bloody plot, but it has only just begun. Bess is stronger than I imagined, Jan is her whole world, all life and all dependencies. And when her whole world fell, she was stubborn, determined, stubborn, and more or less neurotic, but her spiritual world was full, because Jan had become the only belief in her life. . She talks to the gods in her spiritual world, she believes in gods, but her gods are different from other gods. She had only one belief to make Jan better. So maybe Jan was too self-blame and gave up trying to get Bess out of this hopeless life, or maybe Jan was so sick that his brain was broken and his mind was confused and he wanted Bess to have sex with other men to wake up his need for sex . It's puzzling that Bess actually did and believed it until his tragic death. Could it be that her brain is also broken? Even more incredible, Jan finally stood up miraculously. Finally, the attitudes of some people began to change and became more tolerant, such as Dudu, such as Dr. Charles, such as Bess's mother, such as me in front of the screen, such as all of us who are used to living by the rules. I would rather believe that Bess fulfilled Jan with her life. Her dedication to Jan's love, her courage, and her faith brought him a new life. There are always unexpected things in this world that cannot be explained by cold rational thinking. Why are we reluctant to believe and reluctant to admit that there is a miracle? Because we are afraid of losing, afraid of paying the price, afraid of being shattered. Why be afraid? Because we do not have a firm and fiery faith without regrets.
At the end of the film, the bell rang. It seems like Bess in Skyrim mocks the stereotypical towns and pedantic elders and the broken church without a bell. She is just an ordinary little woman, her whole belief is only about Jan and only about love, no anger, no struggle. Whether obscene or stupid, she finally broke through the waves of the world, her life has been sublimated, she is beautiful and free at the same time.
