What can I do for you

This is a film about love and aging, and Haneke captured my heart with his cool, restrained sense of the camera. Single scenes, simple dialogues, and simple shots are all portraits of old age, and they record the old couple's old age as calmly as water.

For love, when we are young, we imagine that we will be forever and forever; in fact, when we reach old age, love becomes more helpless. In the face of time and illness, we will eventually lose our other half. At this time, "what can I do for you?" Instead of holding you in the palm of my hand, I would rather let you go. what the director wants to express.

With the development of such a plot, I wanted to cry a few times during the period, but in the end I couldn't stop it, and I was still immersed in such emotions until the end of the film. Years are long, clothes are thin. In the last journey of life, without the company of loved ones, who can warm their bodies and cold hearts.

Movies are life, and life is movies. Watching such a movie, it is natural to think of my grandfather and grandmother. As life goes by, they still spend their days arguing about "what to eat", "how much to spend", "who cooks the meal" and so on. If one day, when there is no quarrel with each other, what will the ending be like?

I am terrified that this will happen to everyone and we have nowhere to go.
