We will all grow up and learn to say goodbye

[] When Ted Brautigan took Carroll's bones, he said, they're coming. Then, Bobby's mother bursts in, berating ted indiscriminately. At that moment, I suddenly thought that the so-called men in black and evil forces may not only refer to political struggle forces, but may also refer to people who have grown up with their minds overwhelmed by the monsters of life, selfish and indifferent people . Such people not only make their own lives a mess, but also interfere in the lives of others intentionally or unintentionally, forcing people who retain their pious, conscientious, kind, and courageous dreams to fall into the trap of life and accept the reality that should not be a reality.

【】Can all the faults from the lost mind be forgiven, as long as the heart is introspected? I have no sympathy for Bobby's mother, and when she asked for forgiveness, I took it for granted. Bobby replied, I'm working on it, mom. Is this saying goodbye to childhood? We can forgive those who have deeply hurt ourselves, and let life go on in the best way. Although those wounds are still there, I already understand that I can't live by licking those wounds forever.

【】---Will you write to me?---of course.---I'll , too. But later, "We never keep in touch like we said we will." Life is like quicksand, the next stop can never be determined, even if you believe in "we will". But when the aging protagonist takes out the black-and-white photos from many years ago, and recalls his young girlfriend with a gentle but not sad smile, he will know that those days that shine like the sunshine on the ends of the hair will always be rooted in the heart, fresh and beautiful as ever , as vivid as ever, conquering a long and rotten life, shining in the ashes of time.
————————————————————————————————————————————— The above was me a few years ago A few reviews I wrote when I read it. And a few years later, I was writing reviews for other movies, recalling this movie, and writing the following paragraph based on the plot in my memory. And the movie taught me a lot, and those unspeakable things have been integrated into my life and become a part of supporting me forward.
We learned to grow up and learned to say goodbye to the heart of Atlantis when we first saw the line: "We are all captives of time, eternal hostages." In high school, we faced a lot of confusion, between childish and mature The boundaries of the world are wandering, and "loss" is a proposition that I dare not touch but urgently need to learn. The farewell in the Heart of Atlantis touched me deeply. Childhood lovers leave when they say leave, and they will write letters to each other when they say goodbye, but there is no news after they say goodbye. Even the father-like friend who accompanied him growing up has left because of the betrayal of his relatives. But not terrible. Parting is not terrible, losing is not terrible, and death is not terrible, because once owned is already the best form of possession. Objectively, we will eventually be separated, but the most beautiful appearance left in the memory will never fade. Time changes, you will always be the most beautiful lover in your life.

    When I read a book, I don't feel it, and even more so in a movie. I can only say that the acting is good, and the rest is indifferent.

    Just like the corpse adaptation, I feel that it has not fallen to the real point. The novel is quite complicated. After the adaptation of the movie, many things have not been explained, which makes it even more obscure → fans of the original book are hard to please. But in the end, when the old man was caught, he told the little curly hair who was chasing the car that I didn't regret knowing you for a second, and it still forced my tears. . .

Hearts in Atlantis quotes

  • Bobby: Ted, "my father never bought a drunk a drink". What does that mean exactly?

    Ted: It means he was a good man, he was honest, and he never added to the troubles of the world. Okay? Good night.

  • [last lines]

    Bobby Garfield (Adult): I never heard from Ted Brautigan again. Not that I didn't think of him. I always have. I always will. Because that summer was the last of my childhood. And though I never again saw what people were thinking, there was an enduring gift that he left me. What Ted did was open my eyes, and let the future in. I wouldn't have missed a minute of it. Not for all the world.
