Leonardo's beauty in "Total Eclipse Love" is devastating, unparalleled beauty, like poppies - the sun rises slowly in the morning, and the mountains of snow-white, lavender, golden, and red flowers swaying in In the warm subtropical wind, unrestrained and flirtatious, a slightly sweet and bitter fragrance permeates the air - a poppy flower full of temptation but full of poisonous juice. "Léon exerted the melancholy of his nature, interpreting a 17-year-old Rimbaud's spirituality of poetry vividly and at a glance (the tenth screening room)." When Leon faced his lover with a faint smile, slowly waved his left hand so that the sunlight was scattered on his face, stared into the distance and quietly shed tears from his azure blue eyes... The beauty was crystal clear.
At the beginning of the film, Rimbaud is a combination of contradictions: pure rebellion, fierce decadence, pious reading, elegant and vulgar, gentle and cold. His poems are astonishingly imaginative and creative, and Verlaine is the only one who has discovered the lasting vitality of poetry. The fit of ideas and the attraction of talent, Verlaine fell in love with the talented 17-year-old Rimbaud who was ten years younger than him. After living together for two years, Verlaine abandoned his wife and children and eloped with the young and beautiful Rimbaud. Under the rising sun, on the green hillsides, and in the galloping ocean, there are signs of their love everywhere.
It's just that they are destined to separate. Rimbaud is too sharp and loves freedom, and has been pursuing the sun, but Verlaine is carrying practical and moral responsibilities. Verlaine has a classic saying about choosing to love the soul or the body: I think it's less important to love the soul. After all, the soul may be immortal. We have plenty of time for the soul, but flesh rots (I think it's less important to love the soul. More important than loving the soul. After all, the soul may be eternal, and we have time to love; but the flesh rots). It's a pity that Rimbaud chose the exact opposite of what he chose. Verlaine, who loved Rimbaud too much to accept his departure, shot Rimbaud through his hand and was sentenced to two years in prison. They met again two years later, and the subject was the same, but this time Rimbaud let Verlaine choose: I offer you an archetypal choice, a choice between my body, and my soul. Choose. Choose A piece of wilderness, I let you make a choice, whether you want my body or my soul). Verlaine finally chose: Your body. Rimbaud smiled, lonely and lonely.
At the end of the film, 20 years later (Rimbo has passed away), Verlaine saw Rimbaud again in the trance of green absinthe, just like the 17-year-old with delicate eyebrows and love. Maybe Rimbaud really liked Verlaine, maybe Rimbaud never loved him, he only said to Verlaine: You know I'm very fond of you. But Rimbaud asked solemnly: Do you love me? Verlaine answered softly but firmly: Yes. Then Rimbaud said: Put your hand on the table. The tip of the knife brushed Verlaine's palm, Rimbaud gently left a kiss, smiled, and said goodbye affectionately. Verlaine heard Rimbaud tell him in a dream: I found it. Eternity, where the sun mingled with the sea.
