Watch this movie with poetic eyes

Just like the beginning, the end is poetic; we don't know who the heroine is leaving with. A clear beginning, a hazy ending. I can only say that the director is too good! From the beginning to the end of the film, the aesthetic style is refreshing; the images of wind, wheat fields, castles, grasslands, rivers, woods, dusk... these images are just like wonderful places in life; just like the hazy feeling of love, these things are indescribable.

The film's narrative technique is like an elderly old man telling a story, plain and calm. The child's narration, the little girl's perspective is like a piece of white paper, and the story is laid out. The film began to seem to explain their relationship, but it was not a couple, but a sibling. After marrying the farmer, it was a small climax. Is it a play? Is it true? Indescribable. In fact, there is no lack of such ambiguities in life, just being close and distant, just like the little girl said: There are never perfect people in this world. Half of them live with demons and half with angels.

In short, this is a good movie to watch after calming down

    1916 The Age of Innocence. Poor and rich, work and time, flying jugglers, poetic leisure. Children's narratives address the fluency problem. The famous scene of the locust plague is throwing peanut shells from a helicopter, then making the actors walk backwards, and finally reversing the film. Of course, the thousands of locusts that were photographed were provided by Agriculture Canada.

    The photography is quite brilliant, Malik's consistent style, dreamy and idyllic, like poetry
