feel the pain

It is said that Buddhism is divided into Mahayana Buddhism and Theravada Buddhism. Mahayana is about focusing on all beings, while Theravada is concerned with oneself. From Theravada to Mahayana is a final process. To use a modern saying, "Look a little farther." Juliet is sitting alone in the back hall of the airport, with luggage beside her. The rhythm is gentle. The blurred background is the moving start of the glass plane behind her. She is smoking a cigarette, a little haggard, and seems to be waiting for someone. I love you deeply, buried in my heart for fifteen years, and I don't want to and can't shake it, that first scene at the beginning of the movie, I just sit there and wait, smoke, neither expect nor despair, just like that, Or more indifference with silk resistance. The thing that empathizes with each other is that they hurt each other. I know that talking doesn't work, so I let them hit me and hurt my heart until I'm numb, silent, cold, and closed. Many times it may be so. Therefore, it is not that he can swallow it completely, or that he does not speak, but speaks to various "city walls". The grandfather, who has a stroke in his sister's house and who can no longer speak, but likes to read, is an old painting that is painful to talk about. If it is said that this is a religious film, it tells how to use love to influence each other until liberation, it is understandable to say so. I just feel that compared to these so-called "beautiful", I am more satisfied with seeing the real and incomplete human nature and empathy in the pain. If there is unspeakable pain, I think this is a good movie, sitting there alone, looking at her, it is like seeing myself. Mahayana is the high ground that Buddhists want to reach, Theravada is just to save myself. I wandered around in this small world that I didn't touch. I often felt that the "wisdom" in the Buddhadharma can't always hold fast. "Common sense", contradiction, conflict, pain, and even feeling lonely at times, and it seems that there is no end. In this contradictory reality, look at this movie, the woman named Juliet, in the airport where she was released on early parole after spending fifteen years in prison, quietly smoking a cigarette and looking out the floor-to-ceiling window. Airport.

    The ending is too hasty. I'd rather the movie didn't tell the audience why Juliette killed her son until the end, it would have more aftertaste; make a hypocritical reveal in the last 3 minutes, with an extra chicken soup-style confession, as if the whole movie revolves around The mystery is spinning, and this setting is simply an insult to KS Thomas' acting skills.

    I've seen it a long time ago, but I forgot to mark it. The specific plot of the story has been blurred, and I only remember the excellent collapse scene of the heroine at the end of the film. But the title alone is enough to impress me. "Il ya longtemps que je t'aime, jamais je ne t'oublierai." Love you for a long time. Never forget.
