The middle-aged writer Mark, with his face full of vicissitudes, has a heart as soft as an unearthly child. The twisted body of the woman on the stage and the love song that swears by the wind made him cry. In their sorrows, the matador Lydia slowly approached him, but before they could say "I love you", Lydia became a vegetable in an accident. In the ward next door, lying another unconscious girl, Alicia, and Benino, a male nurse who volunteered to take care of her, Zengjin watched her practice ballet every day at the window, but didn't have the courage to say "I love you" to her. Now, he faces her every day like a gentle husband treats his beloved wife, speaking softly, because he believes that although Alicia can't see him, he must feel his love.
Mark left because of despair. When he came back, Lydia was dead, Benigno was dead, but Alicia miraculously woke up. He knew that Benino was the one who made this miracle, but in the eyes of the world, Benino was just a rape patient. The villain.
Love and friendship turned around quietly, leaving these men and women, leaving us in front of the screen, and what is left at last is a sad crying face, a gentle staring face, as quiet as a new life, such as Serene as death.
In fact, we have seen Almodóvar’s love before. They used to be so vibrant and colorful, starting from bondage and gunshots. There is also the female writer who has a mysterious substitute. Her love is the boots that can't be taken off when she puts on her feet. She is cold and forgets to cook the dish. The constant demands and complaints make her hoarse, physically and mentally exhausted. In "Speaking to Her", fashion elements and Baroque style are still visible, but like love, they have learned to stare and listen.
Some people might say that Almodovar just once again accurately captured the audience's psychology, but love is somewhat utopian no matter what era. In my aesthetic map, lively and interesting movies are gradually quiet. , The lovely Almodovar once transformed into a butterfly and transformed into a respectable Almodovar.
I have never liked men crying on the screen, but when the movie ended, I realized that I was also in tears. The painful and distorted body of the woman on the screen has become a pair of dances full of life rhythms for men and women. The background is the enchanting green forest on the Iberian Peninsula, swaying quietly and gently in the wind.
