Relocate for love

Last week I finally watched "Weizi Relocation".

After watching it, I realized that this was Sam Mendes's film, and it was another of his works in "Road to Revolution".

At first I thought it was a subject similar to the Three Moves of Mengmu, but I was completely deceived by the Chinese translation. With the breakdown of Alexi Murdoch's iconic charming voice and guitar, as well as the protagonist and heroine who are constantly migrating from place to place with their big bellies, I finally discovered that this is a road cure film.

From this perspective, I prefer to call it "Relocation for Love". Although the people and things encountered by the hero and heroine are dramatic each time, it is in this process that the two sides constantly resolve the friction and constantly seek the value of life. On the surface, it looks just for the children. From the beginning, being close to the parents can let the parents help together, and then looking for relatives and friends, but in fact it is just to find another way of life for the two people to upgrade from a lover to a parent, a new definition of life. .

Finally, the hero and heroine finally returned to the original old house. There is no expectation for this ending, including the heroine handing the key to the door to the hero and asking the hero to open the door. This move is also expected. Facing the sea, spring blossoms, why do you want to live elsewhere?

Really envy the foreigner's living condition. Still the same sentence-Western movies and Western culture are really big cancers that corrode the psychology of the Chinese people.

Actually, why don't we move for love? From Guanghai Garden, to Luozhuang Dongli, Zhichun Road, Beijing, to the present No. 4 Courtyard of Yuancun West Street, and later Dongpu City Holiday Garden, every residence is a living coordinate, and every place you go to They are all for a certain purpose, and represent the state of a certain period of time in our lives. Even though we work hard and quarrel during each relocation, just like the heroes and heroines in "Relocation for Love", we are fortunate to be able to In the process of constant relocation, I found the home of my life, and constantly strengthened this belief.

Alexi Murdoch’s "Wait" should indeed be the theme song of the film:

Feel I'm on the verge of some greath thruth
Were I'm finally in my place
But I'm thumbling still for proof
And it's cluttering my space
Casting shadows on my face
I know I have a strength to move ahead
I can hardly leave my room
So I'll sit perfecty still
And I'll listen for a tune
When the mind is on the moon

And if I stumble
And if I stall
And if I slit now
And if I should fall
And if I cant be all that I could be
Will you, will you wait for me

Cause everywhere I seem to be
I am only passing through
I dream these days about the sea
Always wake up feeling blue
Wishing I could dream of you

So if I stumble
And if I fall
And if I slit now
All IT Loose And
And IF the I CAN BE All that the I could not BE
by Will you, the wait for Me by Will you

whether the world hardship and darkness of this world again, I just want to hear you laugh.

  • Burt Farlander: Do you promise to let our daughter be fat or skinny or any weight at all? Because we want her to be happy, no matter what. Being obsessed with weight is just too cliché for our daughter.
