Kunming has ushered in the rainy season recently, and the biological cat is silent in its own world, and the sound of rain has seduced nostalgic emotions. Spending two hours watching an old film became a way to spend the rainy season, reminding me of the 16-year-old film of Almodovar. Compared with his other films, it can be said that my love for him started from this one.
Where does Julieta's life begin? The film begins with her packing luggage in her apartment alone, telling Lorenzo, "If I could, I would never want to go back to Madrid." The trace of unease in the background music seems to reveal her mood at the moment, hesitant, uncertain. Will the heart-wrenching experiences and loneliness of the past be forgotten by moving from Madrid to Portugal and starting a new life in another city? However, the move that had been planned for a year was cancelled by a chance encounter on a street corner. After a brief greeting, Julieta thought to herself, "She thinks I still live in Madrid..." And just like that, she gave up decisively. to leave Madrid. Julieta, who has reached middle age, except for Lorenzo beside him, a daughter who has no news, and a father who does not want to see each other again. All the memories of being in Spain are in the past and never mentioned again, including Lorenzo, her intimate partner.
The film unfolds in flashbacks about past lives. She moved back to the apartment building she used to live in with her daughter, and here's the part about how she can't live without Madrid. How should I miss you? How should I tell you? Julieta looked at the children and young mothers passing by on the street, imagine if her daughter has such an expression when she becomes a mother? Sitting beside the basketball court where my daughter used to play, writing letters to my daughter in one's apartment... For more than ten years, it takes great courage to face yourself and you.
The mood of old things swept through a person's space, about her encounter with her husband xoan, about her father who found a new love and her mother in bed, about her own death after becoming a mother xoan... Facing the helplessness and the truth in life, the father said to Julieta: "Daughter, understand and be more tolerant of me." The father's idea of starting a new life was not recognized by the daughter, and Julieta thought that this was undoubtedly a disservice to the mother and the family. A kind of betrayal of the father is the selfishness of the father. And her own daughter, Antia, became more and more mature after her father died, taking care of her decadent and frustrated self. All the daughters who had grown up psychologically without any disturbances in Julieta's mind are brewing a complete exodus and change in their hearts, which will eventually happen. At a retreat, Antia left Madrid with her father's fishing net and her mother. Until a phone call, the original three-month temporary departure became the last parting, the daughter chose a life without the participation of her mother, and leaving without being told the reason became the pain that will never be erased in Julieta's heart... Private detective, policeman , Julieta did everything possible. "The only thing I found is that I know too little about you." At this time, the mother realized that she did not know her daughter. After Julieta's mother died, her father started a new life, she did not forgive her father, and refused to go back to see her father.
The father misses Julieta and his granddaughter, and Julieta misses the daughter who is nowhere. All of this made her heart ashes... The memory of her old friend Ava in the hospital gave insight into the reason for her daughter's departure. The girl's sensitive mind has long seen the guilt of Julieta's reluctance to talk about the truth of her marriage. Such thoughts were hidden after meeting Lorenzo, and a new life seemed to come. But I still can't resist re-emerging at some unknown moment, "I quit you for many years, but I made a mistake again, igniting the hope of finding you again or knowing your news. This unwarranted hope Devouring the fragile defense line built by my new life, I have nothing now, only you exist. Your absence has taken over my life and destroyed it." The most sincere inner monologue of a decadent and beautiful woman.
The daughter's reconciliation with her mother and herself. In Julieta's letter from her daughter in the hospital, when Antia lost her first child, she thought of her mother and the pain she had experienced for so many years. Facing the pain of life experience, starting anew is not understood by relatives, Julieta does not understand her father, and Antia does not understand Julieta. I guess I don't have to think I can only empathize with the loss and the trauma of my life? We try to understand all the mysteries of the world, but the people closest to us are ignored. How much do you know about them?
