French romance at its best

Ashleigh 2022-03-26 09:01:12

If you like a person, you like everything about that person. The discussion of life and death, love, family, self, and class in the play is presented in trivial life fragments of various groups of people, fully reflecting the charm of montage, jumping but not losing the main line. I like to discuss the part of life and death the most, which is reserved and implicit, full of respect for dignity and respect for life. Facing death, there is no hysterical screaming, no crying, no repression of resentment, no gorgeous chants, quiet and rational like autumn leaves returning to the earth, even if there is an infinite nostalgia for life; Communication, the whole-hearted dance at the last moment, and the calmness of facing death alone, I thought this was the best expression of French romance.

  • Élise: [in French] You're all alone here? What do you do all day?

    Pierre: [in French] Watch other people live. Wonder who they are, where they go? They become hereoes in my little stories.

  • Pierre: [discussing his nieces and nephew] We've gotta be honest and say I'm gonna croak.

    Élise: That's not certain.

    Pierre: Then it'll be a nice surprise, if it's not true.
