love without reason

This is an extremely deep and natural French film.

It's been three days since I watched the film, but I couldn't let go of the ending without an ending for a long time. When Pierre Deladonchamps (Franc) answered questions from the audience at the Toronto Film Festival, he said the ending originally set by the director: Franc finally met Mic, and the two left the forest together. If I had seen such an ending before, I'm afraid I would have cried that night. At the last moment, seeing Franc shouting at Michelle in loneliness, I am afraid that many people are as depressed and regretful as I am. Although it is not as sadistic as Siamese Love, it has a different taste in my heart.

As a G, I am very sure of my preferences and direction. If I identify with a person I like, get along well, and have a good conversation, if the other person is more graceful, handsome and romantic, and has a bit of Mic's evil temperament, I will I think I will give it myself, not to mention abandoning right and wrong, even giving up my life willingly. If life does not have a little turbulent waves, some exciting temptations, and no self-respect for love, and the rest is all rational hesitation, calm thinking, and full of dignified and righteous choices, then what is the point of living, as far as I am concerned , This kind of life is like getting old before aging, there is no more interest and heartbeat to speak of, it is better to be drowned by the beloved, at least it is cool, and experience sex.

As for Michelle, Franc loved him with all his heart, and slowly let him accept it, get used to it, and moved him. If he really wanted to kill, why didn't he drown him in the calm lake where the two were alone, and didn't drown him in the first The second time in the silent woods at night, Franc, who had just listened to the detective's disturbing warning, was fragile and shaken. The moment he hugged Mic, he didn't say a word, let alone Jet' aime (I I love you), but that is the truest expression: bastard, I know you are a murderer, I just won't sell you, because I love you so much, are you willing to me... I don't understand why the director changed to An open ending, instead of letting the audience see Michelle's inner world at the last moment, a more complete him, it turned out that in his murderous and dark heart, there is still a clear blue sky, left to his love Boy, shine by the sunny lake that belongs to both of them.

Ask what love is in the world, love, no reason!
