"Everything in this world is useful, even this stone. I don't know what it is, but it must be useful. Because if it's not useful, everything is meaningless, not even the stars in the sky. "
I watched Fellini's film "The Great Road" in the afternoon, simple story, simple characters, but it is this simplicity that amazes me.
I really liked this movie, especially the night when the heroine and the second male chatted, I really hope to press the pause button and let them stay on that night to watch the stars.
She is simply an elf who has experienced a tragic life, but always has a crystal clear heart and a pair of big eyes that are always clean.
He's what they call a fool, a fool who seems happy and escapes, always revealing sad details inadvertently. For example, he asserted that he would die prematurely. Because he performed stunts in the sky every day, maybe one day he would break his neck and die. He performs with the heart of checkmate flying every day. For example, when she asked his mother, he changed the subject in a second, as if he had never heard the question. For example, the violin piece he played was beautiful and desolate.
When the rude male lead teaches the female lead to play drums, she whips her with a stick whenever she can't do well. But the gentle male second, when teaching the heroine to play the trumpet, even if she blows horribly, he encourages her to be a gifted person. So the drums she beat were mediocre, and the songs she blew remained in the hearts of those who passed by her life.
She felt worthless, he told her.
"Everything in this world is useful, even this stone. I don't know what it is, but it must be useful. Because if it's not useful, everything is meaningless, not even the stars in the sky. "
She took the small stone and wept with joy, because the stone was herself.
In our dust-like life, it is rare to be illuminated and to illuminate others.
