There is almost no background music throughout the entire film. Except for those few Schubert piano pieces.
Two old people who love music and reading. Anne and Geogre.
originally lived a life of mutual respect, affection and love, and it seemed that they could grow old.
But a sudden illness shattered it all.
The stroke paralyzed half of Anne's body, and Geogre took care of almost everything in her life.
At first Anne could face Geogre with a smile, face the life she couldn't take care of herself, face the brilliance of life fading from her body little by little.
However, as her condition gradually deteriorated, Anne's hope for life, like her dignity, was shattered little by little under the torment of the pain.
She told Geogre more than once that she didn't want to live. However, Geogre still takes good care of his beloved woman. Feed her food and water. Play a CD for her, read a newspaper for her. Help her with rehab and practice speaking with her. He did everything he could.
Until that slap.
He slapped Anne's face heavily, and also slapped himself in his heart.
The stubborn Anne refused Geogre's care. Perhaps, from that time, he had understood that neither his beloved nor himself could bear it any longer.
He finally chose to obey her wishes.
Maybe Geogre's approach won't get everyone's approval. But not everyone has the courage to end their lover's pain with their own hands.
and own pain.
Darling, what can I do for you?
Maybe like the title of the movie. Amour. Maybe everyone can't tell you what love is in a few words. Maybe everyone can tell you what love is in a few words.
Maybe we don't know what love is.
But at least we know what is not love.
At least it's not your cheap body and warm bed.
At least it's not your craving for excitement.
At least it's not what you think about another person when you're in someone else's arms.
At least, it should not be something that can be easily chosen and faced with ease. It shouldn't be a matter of just getting and enjoying.
It requires you to endure and pay more.
"What can I do?
When the bird is dying.
What can I do for you?
When she's too weak to fly.
What can I do for you?
When she's calling my name.
She's crying.
Mom, let me Live.
What can I do for you, dear?"
