The last time I watched this movie was one afternoon when I was in school in California, sitting behind the white blinds and watching the movie, watching the shadows of the trees outside the window shorten and grow. At that time, I was often distracted, looking at the imaginary New York in Reggie's slightly hoarse voice, at the love and loneliness of this talented young man.
I really like Reggie, a gentle, sensitive, intelligent, and gentleman. He has an old soul that can be self-consistent, and he treats the hysterical people around him maturely and tolerantly. The only juvenile moment in the whole film is the final parting. He pursed and pursed his lips, softly said the dialogue that he had been thinking about for a long time, he got a light kiss from her, and watched her leave with a smile and a smile, and disappeared from his life.
There are many people who say this movie is the story of two broken similar souls hugging each other for warmth. I looked at it for a long time and thought about it, but I still didn't agree. These two people are two completely different people, two completely different pieces of soul.
Eleanor grew up in an unknown town, in a broken and even incestuous family, but it can't be said that they don't love each other, but poverty makes them scream at each other in their lives. He is obviously talented in music, but because of tuition fees, he is stopped at the best music academy in the United States, and he is increasingly broken in restaurants and scumbags.
Reggie grew up in New York's Upper East Side, living in an old museum-like house, silently facing the mother and Spanish-speaking maid who lived on drugs and alcohol. The intelligence far surpassing his peers has made him form a set of his own life patterns, and he clearly understands that he does not need to cooperate with others, and is completely self-consistent and in control of his own life rhythm, which is impossible for all adults in the film. to things. In a way, he's also the only full adult in the film.
Fans will always emphasize the soul-matching of the two. In that way, music is the only thing they have in common. Because from the lines of normal dialogue, it is obvious that Eleanor's vocabulary is relatively lacking. For Reggie's sobbing arrangement, he will only use beautiful to express his moving, which is different from all kinds of uncommon vocabulary. teenagers in stark contrast.
So, between these two people, Reggie is the real leader, he found her beauty, her goodness, he found himself in love with her, he wanted to take care of her and save her, so he pierced the relationship between them hazy love. He is smart enough and sensible enough to know that there is a difference, that there is no beginning and no end, he is really distressing.
Finally, in the musical instrument box Reggie sent to Eleanor, what I expected in the ribbon box was not the precious musical instrument, but the sheet music he wrote for her. This is the respect and hope from a mature lover.
Alas, I love Reggie so much, he is an angel.
