"If You Are the One" is not a comedy but a tragedy

For the Lunar New Year and for business, "If You Are the One" was defined by its director as a comedy that "can't make people laugh", which can't help but be embarrassing, but it also interprets the modern meaning of sadness from another angle.
Indeed, while watching the video, I laughed, very naturally. Humorous and humorous language and unique situations are often hilarious. (Of course, there are also many failures, which will be ignored here.) However, from the beginning to the end, my smile was very restrained, and I did not dare to enjoy it, lest it hurt the fragile nerves in my heart.
The whole film has been revolving around a theme, that is, "Nell Fate". Fate means love; sin means sin. When love, the purest and most beautiful thing in the world, is attached with the color of sin, tragedy is born.
A man fell in love with a woman who didn't love him, and this woman didn't love him so completely because her true love for another man was too seamless. It's no wonder that he wants to hate what he loves, but his hatred can't even arouse the slightest ripple in the other party's heart. No wonder he wants to worship Buddha sincerely, where is he to be grateful for God's good intentions, he is asking for mercy from Buddha, don't let his heart endure too much suffering. No wonder he wanted to repent, because the intensity of the pain had overwhelmed him, and only by pouring out some old bitter wine could he make room for a little breathing. However, don't try to breathe for too long, the raging pain will immediately fill this last bit of space.
A woman fell in love with a man she shouldn't love. She is guilty, she has seized the joy of another woman, she has destroyed the wholeness of a family, she is challenging the last safe haven of modern society. She is guilty, but she is not responsible. How can the responsibility be on her? She had never planned such a love encounter, nor did she want to fall into a swamp of lifeless love. But God made the emotional frenzy come so suddenly, so swiftly, so unpredictably, so real, so deep, and so nowhere to hide.
Because of her sin, she was tortured by love. The unbearable longing of day and night, the helplessness of sharing with others, the endless waiting... This torture has exhausted the last bit of her life energy. Only him, only his body temperature, can ignite her weak light of life. .
A cold life, a depleted heart, cannot provide the slightest impetus for love. At this time, she no longer has the ability to love again, but she always has a fiery heart, trying to use her enthusiasm to warm her, but she does not know that the thick insulating layer has already wrapped her tightly. She was helpless, helpless because of the only green card; she felt guilty, felt guilty for this sincerity that had been exploited by her indifference; she cried, but the cold tears had turned into frost after dipping out. Heartbeat, every difficult heartbeat, has to endure the ravages of this ice; she has no choice, and stopping her heartbeat is her only choice.
She is guilty, she has been punished for her sin, but she is not responsible after all. The punishment for innocent sins is always regrettable and heartbreaking. To make ourselves less heartbroken, we call this blameless sin a sin. Evil is man-made, but it is predestined by God. It seems that when everything is predestined by God, we can accept everything.
But this self-deceiving healing plan can only temporarily paralyze our nerves. When we wake up a little, we will find that there is a greater sadness behind this paralysis. If fate can impose all this on an ordinary weak woman, He can impose it on any of us at any time. At this time, nothing can save us from pessimism and despair, only tears can ease the sadness in our hearts a little.
But the film does not even provide us with a reason to cry. There are no heartfelt and tear-jerking true confessions, nor the tragic ending of mountains without edges, heaven and earth, winter thunder and summer rain and snow. Sadness can only be brewed in the bottom of our hearts alone, and makes us enjoy the seemingly comic ending with a greater reluctance.
This seemingly comedic ending is probably the screenwriter's best effort to maintain the peaceful atmosphere of the festival, but he has overlooked that this well-designed "hi" is based on a small probability event of. Attempted suicide! How many people can be so lucky? You first arrange a few cruisers to cruise nearby, and then wear a life jacket to perform diving performances. The probability of failure is naturally high, but is it still called suicide? Is it possible to melt the insulating layer of the soul and achieve complete liberation? In short, a tragic ending is the only result that can be achieved by human beings, and this comedic effort by the screenwriter further reveals how weak and powerless people's subjective initiative is.
Sin is a trick of providence; liberation is a natural grace. The whole film puts people at the mercy of fate from beginning to end, thus completing the acerbic mockery of human free will, and finally allowing people to appreciate the weakness and helplessness of life. Alas! It's so sad, is there anyone out there?
