The romantic French created a more romantic little girl-Vee. Wei was invited to a dance because of a boy's request. When he was about to leave, he accidentally glanced at the dance. The noisy dance was accompanied by the song "reality" in the headphones. At that moment, it was soothing. In the music, Wei's head rested on the boy's shoulder, so quietly snuggling, slowly shaking in the world isolated by headphones, the shyness, secret joy, romance, ignorance...all along with the singing Falling into the vortex of time together.
Perhaps, this is what we should be like at that age, and this is also a kind of youth. Both Victoria and Matilda are enjoying their youth to the fullest. This is not simply greed for "youth" itself, but because we are not afraid of making mistakes, so we dare to try. This kind of courage in our youth is the most precious thing that youth leaves us. However, Wei also has a warm and dull life like most children. His parents sometimes love each other and sometimes quarrel, and his mother is busy with painting and has a bit of a temper. Her father cheated on her, and her mother cheated with revenge. Only her great-grandmother was open, understanding, and free, which was Sophie's spiritual haven. This is also the film's restoration of reality, not blindly ignoring all kinds of anxiety in adolescence with the filter of "everything is beautiful in youth".
The biggest turning point of this film should be the ending. Sophie met another boy at the birthday party. Maffey left so naturally, just like a passerby. Sophie hugged and danced with the new boy, and she was puzzled. Keep away from the confusion, keep a distance from him, to intoxicate and enjoy, stick to his shoulder. In fact, it was the first time in the movie that the emotional relationship between the two was shown as love or so-called goodwill. It was when Wei went to the beach to find her without the knowledge of Maffei. Maffei should have been deeply moved by this and loved her even more, but the reality is, When Murphy heard Wei running to the beach "alone" on the phone, his expression was not really surprised, it was a shock to him. Not only was Maffee not deeply moved, she couldn't accompany her, she even felt aggrieved, and said something like I didn't ask you to come after all. At this time, the power of this favor has already begun to decline. (Here I can't help but think of a boy in the circle of friends a few days ago, hiding from another girl, across most of China to see her. When the two hugged each other, they were more excited and happy)
The film ends with Sophie's surprised and intoxicated expression, which makes people wonder, what is love, and why does it come and go in such a hurry? What is first love? It's always so wonderful and short-lived. It comes turbulently and desperately. In contrast, when Wei's mother left the airport, walked into the restaurant where they first met, and saw Wei's father eating noodles blankly and thoughtfully, the tenderness in her eyes was something that no one could envy. What she loves is not his mighty, accomplished, "sexy" nature, but his fear of thunder in the middle of the night, and his clumsiness when he is injured and unsteady. The comparison between the two is actually a bit clearer, and conveys a French view of love, that is, the story of first love, regardless of whether it is good or bad, whether it is right or wrong, and it has nothing to do with forever. Love is flowing - this is the French attitude, open-minded and avant-garde.
