Great movie! It can make people full of laughter and warmth to see all the scenes, even if sad, there is a magic that makes people happy.
In the film, Harlow's various "death" actions contrast with Maud's love of life and love for life. Maud is interested in Harlow maybe because of this, Harold yearns for death, Maud cherishes life, and Maud's release is an angel sent by God to Harlow to let him know about life and cherish life. The ending has been reversed several times, but in the end, as I firmly believe, the male protagonist will not commit suicide. Maud has given Harlow a new life, in the words of Jiejie: "The beloved dies, and the old self dies too." The beautiful soundtrack and playful dialogue tell the beauty of love and life. The whole play gives people a warm feeling, a ending that should be sad, but unexpectedly moving and full of hope. Not only Harlow, but probably the people in front of the screen were also saved by Maud.
Maud's suicide is also foreshadowed. In front of the church Maud said something like being 85 years old. And Maud threw away the gift and said that he would always remember it was there, and it was like foreshadowing that she was going to leave like a gift, so that Harlow would always remember that she was there. And Maud has saved Haro, just like saving the sapling, Haro has been given a new life, and she can leave with peace of mind.
She left, not only because of her previous thoughts, but also out of cherishing love and love for her lover. She's in her 80s, just like what the doctors said when Harlow was advised by various psychiatrists, not only would she feel awkward and disapproving being with Harlow, but her life was indeed short. , after the age of 80, you may only be able to stay in bed for most of the time, full of geriatric diseases, although Harlow may not dislike it, but it will eventually bring pain, and will also be biased towards this love. Leaving the last good time and image to Harlow, and not letting the troubles in the future gradually corrode love, may be what she thought. It's a very warm feeling. When I watch it, I let the Buddha lightly laugh, and when I think deeply, I also sigh with sadness in my heart.
Maud had saved Harlow's life, and although he also gained love, it was so short-lived. Is it because she feels that she has no regrets in her life and leaves when she can maintain her beauty, so that Harlow can fully remember the best time of her love, or does she love Harlow too much, and she is afraid that Harlow will be relapsed due to the strange eyes of others. ? Maybe both. Harlow and Maud are sitting under the setting sun, and the sun shines through the lens, which fills the heart with happiness and fills the heart with beauty. It's so beautiful. Thinking of you, and the days in the future that I have been looking forward to. The warm sunlight shines through the screen, and under the wonderful music, I think of the scene at the end of "Spiritual Jacket". Although it is not a good ending, it also gives people warmth and hope, and feels beautiful. Thinking of the way Jack looked at Jackie, the scene where the sun slowly filled the carriage was so beautiful.
Great movie, great time. Thank you, Jiejie.
