Hollywood and Manhattan in the 1930s, with men in peanut butter suits and women with long curly hair and blond hair, and the pictures are as beautiful as oil paintings. Probably we like Woody Allen because of this, like his petty bourgeoisie and literature. "Coffee Commune" is such a movie.
The story is simple and unconventional.
The young male protagonist is full of dreams and confused about the future. He goes to Hollywood to join the uncle, a movie agent, a tycoon, and falls in love with his uncle's lover, the young female secretary Vonnie. When he proposed to Vonnie and wanted to take her back to New York to open a tavern in Greenwich Village, he unexpectedly learned that Vonnie was actually his uncle's mistress, and his uncle abandoned his wife in order to marry her. In the end, Vonnie chose her uncle, and the heartbroken male protagonist returned to New York alone. After some experience, the male protagonist returned to his hometown to run a nightclub, and his career was successful. The male protagonist later fell in love with another Vonnie, perhaps it was Woody Allen's intentional move. The male protagonist married the divorced Vonnie, V became pregnant and gave birth to a child. Years later, the male protagonist reunites with the young Vonnie, and the woman he loved when he was young is still so beautiful...
What you can't get is always in turmoil.
But ah, in a tired life, there is always a need for a gentle dream. His charming wife gave him a gentle hug, and his life was peaceful. I still remember what Wong Kar-wai said, forget everything you can forget, you don't have to remember it if you can remember it, and you understand some things you haven't said for a long time. You sacrificed yourself with rituals, living in the most ordinary years, and one day it was reflected under the Naihe Bridge and in the soup of Meng Po. In love, there is not only the romance of the peach blossoms and the crescent moon, but also the tacit understanding and perseverance of the two people. How difficult is it?
So it seems reasonable for the male protagonist to go back to New York in a daze. When you were young, you loved poetry and the distance, and then you just fell in love with everything in front of you.
This is more about the introduction of director Woody Allen, and it's pretty good. It's a common script in
love dramas, but Woody Allen is better at telling the story well. He won't let you settle for the status quo. The Lord and the woman you loved when you were young meet again, fall in love, and entangle...
This is a story about growing up about love. When you first arrive in a big city, you are dressed in rustic clothes and are slow to respond. Later, when everyone turned into what they hated before, of course you were no exception. The young Vonnie you love is still beautiful but not what she used to be. Love is like a city, once a choice is made, another possibility is lost. But when you come back to the city of the past, you are still fascinated by her love, even though she has become a feast for the eyes. Back then, you loved her undisturbed, but now you love her elegance and dignity.
I still like you very much, like the wind has gone eight thousand miles, regardless of the return date.
I hate it for the rest of my life, it's rare to see each other again, why don't you have a drink...
Conquering the sharp edge of the tongue and sword, even the cheating is getting more and more light, there is no elopement or tearing, and there is no abandonment of the family and business due to extramarital affairs.
Probably each of us wants to explore from this lovely old man's movie, what kind of murder, deception, betrayal, can be forgiven?
Or maybe he has long forgotten to explore forgiveness and downplayed the conflict. In the story, there are jazz age, wine, Jews and women dancing in the dim light that he insists on
.
When we are in our twenties,
we should believe in love and
accept that love will die.
At least,
we all remember
the way love used to be, remember the way you seriously loved me in
those days
