Perhaps the most ironic thing about human beings is that when there is hope, they are profligate, and when they are desperate, they are full of hope. Maybe Inman and Ada's love is too hasty, and in the real world, they will not spend their whole lives with good feelings caused by a few encounters. In the era of economic supremacy, we have long forgotten how to love. Most of it is the calculation of blind date, most of it is because of the attraction of appearance, and most of it is the bright coat of love, while ignoring the essence of love. It is precisely in the age of life and death that love has become the belief of our existence.
The cold mountains are snowing, and year after year, in Ada's brushstrokes, I never give up my longing for Inman. On the cold snow-capped mountains, Ada guarded the abandoned family business, withered in shape, firm eyes, and her original intentions remained unchanged. This is how I miss you. Even if I see the compass of fate in the dry well, I will insist on waiting for you, because you said that you will come back.
It's not just Ada's fate. On a rainy night, Inman came to Sarah's house to take shelter from the rain, and Sarah said to him: "This kind of thing is commonplace in war years. Men die and women live." The result of failure is the collapse of families and the loss of souls. We are also small people in the context of a big era. In different eras, he manages his own life, but he is ups and downs in the wild waves of the times.
Civil war is the greatest shame of a nation. When the people of a nation face each other with swords and swords, but they are not so happy, it is not far from the sadness of history. When they heard the gunshots of the civil war, the people in Lengshan Town boiled, and they fired their guns happily and cheered the arrival of the war. The time to defend black slavery has come, and I rushed to the battlefield with the mentality of leaving my hometown for a month, but what followed was one bad news. The photos hanging at the entrance of the church, the desolate farmland, and the mountains and forests of Lengshan Town have all witnessed the laughter and laughter of these hot-blooded men on this land. Now there are only sparse and dilapidated fields, withered branches, and People who can't go back here either.
In times of war, there is no absolute justice. Because war itself destroys human nature. Perhaps history is written by the victorious side, and it will naturally add countless praises to itself in history. And "Cold Mountain" abandoned a clear political position, and the reality reflected the cruelty behind the war. The brutal looting of Yankees, the guns in the hands of old ladies in the woods, the sex of lonely sisters. Sarah ignored the Union Army's love for her child and shot the Yankee who was fleeing. This is the cruelty of war. As long as you put on a military uniform, your position will be clear, and there will be no extra warmth to speak of. Inman walked all the way with a life-saving attitude, but his eyes were filled with brutal killings. In an era of bullets, bullets are the most convincing thing. And far away in his hometown, the misbehavior of the militia leader is in stark contrast to the symbol of justice at the time of the expedition. Further interpretation of the absurdity of war.
After many years, you are finally standing in front of me again, the sky is snowing, and I have a shotgun. I have grown up over the years, from being afraid of roosters, to hunting pheasants, from talking about musical flower arrangements, to being rubbed by life, and waiting steadfastly in my thoughts of you. I felt in a trance that the balance of fate finally tilted towards my position, but, I was wrong, fate will not be rewritten. The moment you fall into the snow.
Years later, I have crossed the flames of war and have become accustomed to seeing the body whose life has been taken by death, but I have never lost the slightest enthusiasm for your beloved heart. The war made me tired, so I risked treason and traveled thousands of miles to come back to see you. In the heavy snow, I saw the strong you after many years. In a moment, only in that moment, I let go of all the tiredness in my heart, and I arrived home... Even if we are not able to withstand the shackles of fate and the impact of the times, at least in this killing, at the end of my life, I see you, the person I love, such a life is enough.
