Edaleno's Penelope's acting skills in this film can be said to be desperate. How much effort it took for this Spanish national treasure beauty to make me watch it five times without finding the slightest sense of beauty. Ida's make-up can be described as vulgar, always messy hair, blue eye shadow and poor lipstick. match.
The only thing that stuck in my mind was her eyes. In love, Ida's eyes that have been through hardship still exude warmth, pity, and tolerance enough to melt everything. The frailty and strength of being a woman are presented without any impurities.
As a humble woman in the market, even if she has a beautiful face, it has not become a means for her to survive in the world. What she has is only natural kindness.
Such a seemingly weak and helpless woman is indeed easy to arouse men's desire for sadism. She just bears it silently, and does not expect a hero of the world to appear to save her from this dark world.
"You can come once a month, or once a year, it doesn't matter, as long as you hold me tightly every time like now."
This is a trace of warmth she is trying to grab in this ruthless world.
On the other hand, looking at Date's inner world and real situation, it is not difficult to understand why she is so low in the dust. As a child, he lacked the care of his mother and suffered molestation from his biological father. When I grow up, I live in a dilapidated house that does not belong to myself, and do a job as a cleaner. In the days of uncertain future, there was only one big yellow dog that accompanied her. She must not dare to expect to be with a "decent" person like Timo, let alone have love.
In stark contrast to Ida is Timo's wife. She is elegant and beautiful, grew up in a good family, and knows how to protect herself, defending her right to freedom and happiness as a woman. Out of fear of too many unknown factors, he has been reluctant to have children. Until I was moved by Timothy's description of the reason for wanting a child, "I want to see the kite fly."
Here, as a female audience, I have a deeper understanding that women are moved by a man, maybe not because of his strong side, but because of his innocent side. He said, "I want to see the kite fly," so his wife, who seemed to be indifferent on the surface, took off the IUD quietly.
And when he was with Ida, from the pure sex at the beginning to the tenderness at the back, he fell asleep on Ida's chest like a child, did it also make Ida feel tenderness and love in her heart? Even if he is the perpetrator of this misfortune.
Timo said to Ida, I will not come again. Ida responds as always, it's okay. There was even a kind smile on his face. However, in the end he came back. In Ida's room that seemed to be unlocked all the year round, he silently sat on the sofa stroking the big yellow dog and waited for her to come back.
On the other hand, when I looked at Timo's inner world and childhood experiences, interspersed with flashbacks, I understood that this was a child who wanted to protect the weak but was powerless. He was unable to protect his mother and himself who were bullied by his father, and could only run away alone. door. If you want to protect the frog being bullied by the skin child, you can only bury its body.
Maybe in Ida, he saw the shadows and desires of childhood, he became that abuser, but in the end he didn't want to be as powerless as when he was a child. He hopes that he can do his best to protect Ida. All this, regardless of right or wrong, is already a wish in his heart.
When Ida got pregnant unexpectedly and he took her to the hospital, Ida walked into the hospital alone, staggered and accidentally fell to the ground, he said to her at that moment, I would rather cut my head for you than let you in. For Ida, this is a kind of confession.
Ida's love is kind and forbearing.
Timothy faced a real problem when his wife was also pregnant, he was in chaos. In order not to embarrass him, Ida went to Gypsy's place to perform an abortion (the unclean operation killed her a few months later).
She silently watched the beloved man and her pregnant wife in the rain. After seeing it, Timo made an excuse to leave his wife and found Ida in the rain. The scene where he had sex with Ida under the eaves in the rain, thinking about it later, probably implied that Timothy's desire was not extinguished, and he was still eager to protect Ida.
After the child was born, his wife asked him, "Are you satisfied?" He hesitated before answering. As he left the delivery room, his wife asked, "When are you coming back?" He didn't answer.
He went to Ida, who was about to leave the sold house and go back to her hometown or Canada. At this time, it was rare to see Ida wearing a decent black dress, and her makeup was still gaudy but it was well-drawn. She is leaving the man she loves. She gave everything she could, even if she had nothing, she should be noble.
When she learned that the child was born, she also asked him, "Are you satisfied?" He cried, "How can I be satisfied?"
He said, "I can't do it without you," and she said through tears and gritted teeth, "You can, fool."
He took Ida to the station, and in the small town restaurant where he was resting on the way, he suddenly came up with the idea of going far away with Ida, "Your village must also need a doctor? Or we can also go to Africa, I will teach you. Be a top nurse." "You have to think for yourself," she said. "It was the first time I thought about myself," he said.
Witnessed by hot soup, red wine, and cheese, Timothy proposes to Ida by drafting his own testimony. Ida has already begun to show symptoms, but this is probably the happiest moment of her life.
In the end, Ida fell ill that night, and Timothy himself was unable to save his lover's life with all his efforts.
"This person is dead, and all the trees, dogs, rivers, will go with her." He cried like a helpless child.
This sentence, it is believed that this is love.
Years later, outside the ward where he was waiting for his daughter's surgery, he felt the same pain and suffering of losing his beloved. Until the end of the operation, the daughter was safe. In his vision, the rain stopped, and the beloved woman who was sitting in the rain left.
Those who truly love you will never be absent.
The expression of the whole film is extremely realistic and rough, but the emotions expressed are touching. I don't know how many people watched it in tears like me. In the end, Ida got love, but gave her life.
Whether this emotion is pity or deformed sadomasochism, when Timo and Ida are together, they feel that they are thinking of themselves, and it is a joy from the heart.
Under the tricks of fate and fortune, no one may really know what to do with love.
This is indeed a sad movie. At the end, Timothy took out a red high-heeled shoe of Ida that had been treasured for many years, kissed it, and placed it at the crossroads where she appeared. Formally say goodbye to the past.
