# Movie # "Alone on the beach at night"
Nominated for Best Film at the 2017 Berlin Film Festival... The work of Hong Sang-soo, a famous Korean literary director, starring: Kim Min-hee.
It has been more than half a month since I watched it, and I have been thinking about this question: "What is the purpose of making movies?"
I never accept any background introductions and spoilers. After the movie, I went to look for some background introductions. After seeing it, I realized that the content of this movie is so private and so bold...
From beginning to end, immersed in the emotional flow of the heroine, follow her to suppress, follow her to kneel before crossing the bridge, follow her to walk wildly on the seaside path, follow her to draw the face of her lover with branches on the beach, follow her to live together Hope "he said he came back to see me, will he come?" In the bleak winter in Germany, the seaside with cold wind, I felt "cold" in the first half.
Back in China, she seems to be like the heroine in her heart. Maybe she is looking forward to a new life. Seeing her chatting with old friends, she is suddenly drunk, like a willful doll, talking and talking. , said that everyone bowed their heads in their hearts... Outside the coffee shop, alone, humming, the end of a cigarette and a song also ended, what about that relationship, will it end?
Until she was at the seaside again, facing the sea, lay down, fell asleep... Did she really fall asleep and have a dream? Or was he woken up and met him?
Emotional flow, in the eyes of many people, will be very dull, I believe that few people can feel at ease from the beginning to the end, they will fall asleep, haha...
If I don't want to talk about the "gossip" outside the movie, I don't want to talk about my views on extramarital affairs, but if I only talk about the movie itself, I am still willing to give a four-star recommendation.
Two stars for Kim Min Hee. So beautiful... The type of lover who cheated on her and I wouldn't be jealous... Where are the two superficial words just beautiful to describe her? The charm of raising a hand and a stop will bend me... I would like to have such a friend who can accompany her on a walk on the beach and remind her that the wind is strong and the water is cold, come to my arms...
The performance in the film, the true character, is also cute and very... The intensity of the emotional flow has already impacted me...
One star for the plot. The plot selects parts other than love to let the audience experience what love is and what torture is. Watching Kim Min-hee's performance is hard-hearted to see how she is tortured. Do you have a solution? No solution. Some people may stand on the moral high ground and say: self-inflicted. But I can't tell. My moral line is not that high. I sympathize with all those who are trapped and tortured by love...
Not getting it is torture;
Is it not a kind of torture to get it?
The last star for this film pushed me to think: "What is the purpose of making a film?"
Some people say with certainty that this is a gift from the director to her. So this film is more private, and it is peeped by all of us...
And I have a different understanding: filming, just for the record.
Some movies record a story;
Some record a group of people;
Some record a history;
Some movies are just to record an emotion...
Alone on the seashore at night,
That's it.
Thinking of this, I am still envious of Jin Minxilai. Her emotions can be recorded in a movie, and each of us's emotions have always been tasted alone...
In the world, how dare you say that there are so many lively people?
Where is the little bit of fun,
It's all lonely...
In this movie, the capitalized word "loneliness",
The director does not need the world's understanding,
Just for the record...
