In fact, so far, in my heart, it is still from the director's point of view. . . This is essentially a beautiful film. A beautiful heroine, a handsome hero, and then there is a tragic ending. The filming location is also in picturesque India. Everything seems to be a love movie. However, when a person is in that beautiful scene where everything is impeccable, including the death of the heroine, the separation between them, you will sink into that poetic narrative. Every bit is immersed, a perfect touch, the beating raindrops, the cheerful voice... everything will move you, probably it is a dream. I think it is inseparable from the fact that the director is a woman! Because that is a unique female perspective, and the aestheticism of women is also reflected in this.
However, we often overlook one point, that is, the male protagonist's admiration for Gandhi. When Gandhi spoke, it was just an old man before the gate of death, but he was respected by so many people. The crowd of people in the movie also shocked me. In my ignorant years, I knew for the first time that it turned out that bearing is equally respectable and convincing. Gandhi, who changed a country; Martin Luther King, Jr., who influenced a race; God, who lived for centuries; and even Marx, who we couldn't say we liked since childhood. A thought, a behavior, still has its roots in this world, why don't we try to believe some? Haruki Murakami said in a short story that choosing between the tangible and the intangible, I attach great importance to trying to choose the intangible, and that has proven to be correct today.
The above may be just some of my personal thoughts. But it is undeniable that the director's heart is soft, and what she presents to us is also a soft world. Calm down and watch this movie, it will definitely give you a different feeling.
Of course, some people will think, why is this so? Who is wrong? Destiny? Let everyone find their own Hamlet.
