This story affects people's hearts not only because of the misfortune of the separation of the two lovers, but also because this misfortune is lengthy and almost eternal. The separation of lovers for a moment is equal to the separation of a lifetime. It is a sharp and indelible pain. And the achievement of this undoubted pain is caused by the ignorance, sinfulness and lies of this little girl, which is even more disgusting.
This girl has been doing all kinds of repentance for the next eighty years to no avail, because the two people who were separated by her death have been separated forever, and she can only make up a plot in her own novel that she can redeem. But the novel is fictitious, and just like the lie she told at the beginning, it never helped things in the slightest positive way. This irreparable sin will end with her death, and she will eventually suffer the consequences. Although she suffers, she is only a little witch compared to the two separated lovers.
The most exciting plot is not the moment when the lovers meet for a short time, but when the girl grows up, in order to atone for her sins, she goes to the hospital to work as a nurse to rescue the wounded soldiers, because the man who was separated and imprisoned by her later joined the army and participated in the Anglo-French war.
She was sent to the bedside of a dying soldier, surrounded by a red veil, to care for and appease him until the end. The little girl was originally a playwright. She had always wanted to be the heroine, and she had always lived in a fantasy world of scripts. This time, she finally performed a scene with flesh and blood (really terrifying blood and flesh!). The red curtain surrounding the hospital bed, which could not have appeared in the hospital, clearly created a stage effect. The seriously wounded and dying soldier seemed to be an incarnation of the man she killed, allowing her to see with her own eyes the physical and spiritual pain he suffered because of her sin. Her first love happened on the small stage of this hospital; her first love disappeared with the death of a soldier; her first love made her feel the feelings of her cousin who was harmed by her; her first love, In fact, it is for atonement.
Fortunately, the heroine's cousin finally died in the flood, just like she dived to the bottom to pick up the fragments of her and her lover's commemorative vase, she died in the water just in time to recover her and him who died early. a love affair. As for the little girl who didn't deserve love, she fell into the water and couldn't die, but she aroused the resentment of the person she liked all her life.
The film also uses a lot of metaphors. For example, before the hero's death, he walked through the manzhushahua (poppy flower), which is said to be found on the road of death. On the night of his death, the last time he looked at the name card his lover gave him, the firewood that was gradually extinguished, the sound of typing It represents the little girl in repentance, and the last couple of lovers playing on the beach to represent the reunion.
Ignorance, sinfulness, and lies break apart true love and create chaos in the world. This hurtful little girl reminds me of the Cultural Revolution, as if it were the same.
This story also serves as a reminder to the Pisces self who also lives in their own fantasy world. Perhaps, the unrestrained thinking is that you need to take on some labor work that you do by yourself, in order to make yourself more realistic and return to reality a little more. Reminds me of a boyfriend who asked me to have a child without mentioning marriage, just so that I could work harder and reduce my fantasies. ah~
