However, after watching the film, I felt that what my friend said was very unreasonable. Apart from the pictures, the two films can be said to be quite different. "Angels Love Beauty" is warm, just like the strong red in the movie, which symbolizes fraternity; and behind the brilliant colors of "Two Little No Guess" is icy cold, thorough heart and lung cold.
In the movie, Julian accidentally mentioned Thad, which made me Sartre. Sartre said that others are hell. Julian and Sophie are undoubtedly the most accurate interpretation of this view. Their love is simply the love of two hedgehogs. They love and hurt at the same time; the deeper they love, the deeper they hurt. This love is heavy and desperate, and they can only choose to die in the cement to end the damage!
So what is it that two people who love each other can last forever in the cement? Because of the "bet or not" game. The juvenile Julian and Sophie started the game of "betting or not betting" because of a beautiful box. At that time, they were carefree and happy like angels. At that time, they never thought that this game would accompany them for life, and eventually sent them to the land of death.
Love is not a game. Sophie’s biggest mistake is that when she asks Julian to kiss him, she says "Gamble or not," because of this, Julian mistakenly regarded the kiss as a game. When Sophie said "love me", Julian replied "I bet." Julian's words hurt Sophie's sensitive and fragile heart deeply. She left angrily. Even though Julian abandoned the family and wanted to go with her, she still coldly refused.
Sophie's decision to absolutely abandon everything is undoubtedly a huge injury to Julian, so when Sophie figured everything out and came to him, Julian seemed extremely indifferent. Julian and Sophie love each other after all, and Julian chases out of the library. He said: "You know what I want to say." Sophie said: "I don't know, you said it!" But Julian couldn't say it. So Sophie used "one year later" to hurt Julian's heart, and Julian fought back with a condom. Sophie counterattacked: "You can't hurt my heart at all!" When Sophie took the car away, Julian chased after the car and shouted the words "Sophie, I love you". It's a pity that Sophie saw it but couldn't hear it, and she went away.
When Julian handed the ring to Sophie in the dining room four years later, everyone in the dining room applauded for them. At that moment, Sophie smiled so happily. However, Julian's next words, let Sophie and me who watched the film, my heart fell to a freezing point. He said: "I want you to be my witness. This is my fiancée. She is beautiful, isn't she? She wore the same clothes as you four years ago. I gave it to her. Do you remember that day you said I will always I can't hurt you, I can! We are even!"
Before this, many details told us that the conflict between the two was caused by their personalities. Sophie was sensitive and low self-esteem, and Julian was also sensitive. But this scene has changed too much and too abruptly, and it's hard to be convincing in terms of personality alone. Just for an angry word, arranged the reunion four years later into a conspiracy, just to hurt the person who loves and loves himself. This is crazy and terrible. So what caused it? Later, the director answered.
In terms of Sophie's character, it is impossible for her to not retaliate after being so insulted. She naturally ruined Julian's wedding.
The next scene is the most terrifying scene in the entire film. Sophie, blindfolded, is standing on the railway, and the train is approaching at high speed. Sophie asked: "Can I move?" Julian did not stop, but turned her head away indifferently.
Because of a game, because of a word, it is even crazier and more terrifying to have the heart to put the opponent under the rolling wheels.
Sophie, who had escaped from the dead, made a new betting contract, which he had not seen for ten years.
After ten years of peaceful life, Julian finally waited for Sophie's news. Tears flashed in Julian's eyes when he saw the beautiful box as a bet. After ten years, he still loved Sophie.
When Julian rushed to the date place, it was Sophie's decision. Ten years later, Sophie's hatred did not disappear, and she wanted to retaliate.
As Julian drove madly, he said: "Deadly Sophie, the game has started again. This pure wildness is like a volcanic eruption. It is more praised than anything else! It is better than freedom and life!"
What excites Julian is not Sophie, not love, but games. Julian is like this, and Sophie should be like this too? This game has melted into their blood, into their bones, and into their souls. It is the source of their passion for life. This is also the director's answer to Julian's madness the first two times. After that, Julian was knocked unconscious by Seger, Sophie's affectionate cry could not wake him, but the game was able to wake him up, which proved this again.
When the two people finally realize that they love each other deeply and are ready to be together forever, the game has undoubtedly become the biggest obstacle between them. The scenes that appeared when Julian was in a coma, especially the few scenes that appeared when he fell from a high altitude, told us that Julian had realized that it was the game that started as a teenager that prevented them from being together. They don't want to continue hurting their love. They were separated for ten years last time. How long will it be next time? Twenty years, thirty years? They don't want this, they want to be with their love, they want to get rid of the control of the game, but the game has melted into their lives and become a part of their lives, and they can't get rid of it. They want to stay together, there is only one way to go-death.
After Julian and Sophie were buried in the cement, Julian said: "We won this bet like this, and we will always be together." Julian said it was us, not me, which means he and Sophie both won. If there is a win, there is a loss. Since he and Sophie have won, who is the loser? I think it should be a game. This is a bet between Julian, Sophie and the game. Julian and Sophie must have said this: "This damn game can't stop us from being together!"
But did they win or lose? Is the beautiful box condensed on the cement showing that they are free from the control of the game, or are they under the control of the game? I hope they won.
When Julian and Sophie were dying, they turned out the most beautiful picture, so Julian's wish was his dream and the director wanted to express. The elderly Julian and Sophie are playing the childhood word guessing game. They are not betting on the outcome, but thinking together and working hard together. The beautiful box they used as a bet became a candy box filled with colorful candies. There is only one blue candy left. Sophie didn’t use gambling to determine its ownership, but humbly said: "Give you the blue one, because you are good!" Then time turned back and a series of kissing kisses. Lens. Julian and Sophie were at the wedding, behind the bus, when they proposed, when they were in college, and finally in their childhood. This series of shots tells us clearly and undoubtedly that if he gave each other a kiss instead of a game or a gambling, then they would be as happy and happy as these pictures until they are old. It's just that this world doesn't exist. If the beautiful box condensed on the cement clearly tells us that Julian and Sophie are buried in this cold cement forever.
Julian’s heart was full of regret when he was buried in the cement, so he said at the beginning of the film: “There is a game that you must never play, never play! Even if your best friend begs you! Bury yourself in the cement!" And the last sentence of the film is: "Sophie, is my best friend in life." If he could go back to the beginning, even if Sophie begged him, he would not answer. Of course he would give Sophie a kiss, and then he would be happy to be old.
This is a movie about love, but it is by no means a romantic movie. It is cruel and cold. The director told us through the deaths of two beloved people that love requires tolerance, not games. Love is very strong, it can withstand the test of time and space, it can withstand all kinds of pressure; love is also very fragile, it can not withstand the game. So, dear friends, you must not use love as a game!
