There are also similarities between the characters. Amadeu is as erudite, calm, and honest as Miguel; Estefania is as beautiful and entangled as Nuria, but she loves the writer Julian, so Amadeu is more like their coincidence. And Jorge, another of Amadeu's three best friends, loves Penelope humbly like Fu Melo, but later Fu Melo is Mendez.
Unlike the story in "Shadow of the Wind", which is opened by a curious boy, in this film, it is a white-haired linguistics professor who recklessly goes back to other people's lives. How charismatic is the author of this book, so that a stable adult can leave his rationality behind and go to the southernmost tip of the continent?
I haven't read the book yet, and I don't know what the characters in the book are like. Just from the movie, this story is really boring. It is true that Amadeu is an excellent son of heaven. He hates hypocrisy, resists tyranny, and has the heart of a saint as a healer. It is no wonder that he is almost perfect for the professor to look at himself.
But the problem is that everything about him is revealed too easily, and he should be more elusive and mysterious to set off his extraordinaryness. However, the professor held a travel map every day and visited an old person every day, which easily restored Amadeu's life.
Almost all stories have an element of love that begins in the second half, and the lack of interest in the plot makes the whole story and Amadeu eclipsed, but its results are quite bright. Estefania fell in love with Amadeu at first sight, but when they finally crossed the Thunder Pond and could elope, she realized that he was not for her.
The behavior is, of course, a complete Bichi, a friend who fell in love with her boyfriend, and finally betrayed her friend and chose to fly away with you, but you crossed the river and demolished the bridge. But Estefania's sanity is admirable, and it can be seen that she is obsessed with Amadeu simply because of her looks. She never knew him, she just wanted to get close to the body. When she understood that his soul was a weight that she couldn't bear, she knew how to get out in time.
Maybe it's because the sister and brother are too poisonous recently, I think it's Adriana who really loves Amadeu. She refused to accept the fact that her younger brother had left, and stayed in the house where they grew up and lived together for the rest of her life, drinking his favorite tea in his favorite room, as if he still existed in every inch of air.
PS: I really like the atmosphere of the scenes in Bern at the beginning. The sunshine in Lisbon South Europe is so bright that even the story seems light.
PPS: I don't like the role of professor very much, and I deeply feel that he has surpassed Uncle Tie. The ophthalmologist was quite pleasantly surprised. When watching "Hidden Wall", the heroine looked like a dazed and resentful woman from beginning to end, but here she is particularly radiant, with every frown and smile very charming, and she is a perfect match for Uncle Tie.
I have never thought that Melanie is beautiful, but sometimes he is quite aura. Personally, I think actress Nora Anazadel, who is also French, is more suitable for Estefania.
