steep because of nobility

Love becomes heart-wrenching when it is related to two things, one is death and the other is time. The Barber of Siberia belongs to the latter category. But at the same time, it has a feeling of being as cold as ice and snow and as vast as a plateau. I think it is because of Andrei Tolstoy, the Russian soldier who has a rare noble temperament, which makes his love with Jane a legendary legend that reflects the torrent of the times, even if it has been baptized by the years, it seems to be heavy and different. Sympathy, but still youthful and unrepentant in his heart.
On the train where Andre met Jane for the first time, he sang an excerpt from "The Marriage of Figaro" for her, "A manly man should go to the army." Jane said to him, Andrea, I'm not worth it, I'm the kind of woman your mother would make you watch out for. When Andre knew her purpose of the trip was to confuse Admiral Reynolds, the head of the military academy, for a loan, he fractured his right arm in a duel with classmate Paulie for her. Attacking Reno for her, ruining his future. He understands that when he hits Reno with his cello bow, he is undoubtedly hurting himself. But he is willing to be destroyed with this love. Therefore, when Renault declared that he was protecting the duke and blocked Andre's "assassination", Andre knew that the crime of assassination was more serious, but he did not plead until he was exiled to Siberia after hard labor.
In my opinion, the so-called tragedy is a person who could have dominated his own gallop, but because of an emotion as powerful as a mission, he handed over the whip in his hand and was willingly thrown into a deserted corner. The boundless loneliness draws a sad back. Ten years later, he has changed from a heroic soldier to a farmer with a beard and a dusty face. He looks at Jane who is speeding by in a carriage in the distance. He knows that she is looking for him, but he does not stop her, even if His heart was full of mixed feelings, like a worm biting, and he didn't move until her figure disappeared from his field of vision. He lit a cigarette, and his eyes were mixed with complex emotions of attachment, emotion, strangeness, and grief, but he seemed to be at a loss.
Think of Byron's poem: If I see you again, after a long time, how would I greet you with silence and tears. In this film, the passage of time and the changes of personnel all rush by in the second half, as if those ten years and ten years were a snap of a finger. Andre's life can be explained in a few words. The year he graduated from the military academy, he Met her and he was finished. However, he used his silence and his invisible tears to elevate love to a height that makes people sit upright and burst into tears. As the book "The Time Traveler's Wife" says: Absence makes love stronger. The biggest reward for Andrei and Jane's lifelong separation was their son, who in the military camp would rather wear a gas mask to train and sleep because he didn't want to insult Mozart with his superior. The superior admits defeat, and he combines his father's neither humble nor arrogant with his mother's kindness, and finally draws a noble end to the steep love between his parents.
Zhang Ailing said that after 30 years, even the best moonlight is a bit bleak. But for people who are deeply poisoned, such as me, it is: after decades, no matter how desolate the moonlight is, it is beautiful. Because I haven't experienced it yet, I haven't lived to that age, so I always have endless curiosity about hearsay love stories to get to the bottom of it: Are they together? Or, will they still miss each other when they are separated? I hope to confirm that there is eternal love in this world, and I also want to try it out with a fluke. Fortunately, in any case, most of the directors of those love movies are kind-hearted, and there is always a heart-warming tail left in the sadness, telling us that there is always something that time cannot take away or defeat, even if it disappears at this moment, We will meet you unexpectedly in another form at another moment in the future.
