miss fault

Before I knew it, "Annie Hall" had been on the computer for four or five years. During this period, I have opened it many times, but the urge to watch the movie can never be continuously satisfied, and naturally I have never finished watching it. I always dislike Woody Allen's rambles for being too wordy, I always dislike that the heroine is not good-looking enough, and I always dislike that it is difficult to grasp the main line of the narrative when it is scattered. Anyway, it is all kinds of dislikes. Until one day I accidentally heard the sentence "Annie Hall", I know, is the movie about an old man with a strong intellectual temperament trying to nurture his girlfriend and finally forcing her to become someone else's bride. ". As the so-called chance and coincidence add infinite joy to life, I finally found enough reasons to calm down and accompany this bad old American man for 90 minutes after finding the point of laughter in an instant:



"Annie Hall" tells a story like this:

A is a heartbreaker The dream of performing arts, life is not ambitious, the appearance is not outstanding, and the personality is carefree. B is a comedian with little fame. He is a little neurotic, and his appearance is unremarkable. He has had two failed marriages. He suffers from severe narcolepsy. He has low self-esteem, arrogance, and self-esteem.

A and B met on a tennis court, which is a symbol of the middle class, and then developed a good impression of each other. Under the initiative of A, they lived together. B in love began to cultivate a so-called "better A" in his mind according to his own preferences. The tools he uses are knowledge and discourse as power. And A, who was full of excitement and joy, could only passively resist while passively accepting it. Life is trickling, and under the pressure of her lover, she slowly becomes a C who makes B feel unfamiliar and makes her feel a little bit at a loss. This C is not the result of someone's design, only God knows it is a natural derivative of the oppression/resistance model. At this time, for C, although she still maintains a relationship with B, it is difficult to love B like A did, and she cannot continue to live with B. A is no longer A, but B is still B. This is where the inflection point of the story occurs. Although B was also aware of his emotional crisis, he did not realize that in the face of the predicament, the best response should be to take the initiative to change something. Therefore, his "weak" crisis public relations will only push A farther and farther on the one hand, and make him hate it on the other hand. At this time, the emergence of D is only a matter of time. And then D and C fly away and it is not surprising. It's just as natural that B will soon have EF in B's life after C leaves.

Before A became C, A and B had a breakup experience, but such a brief breakup actually had no practical significance. Because not only the original mutual appreciation points shared by the two people are still still alive, but life also presents them with rare familiarity and habits to escort their feelings. In this case, "reunited" is a necessity. But when the story develops to when B and C talk about breaking up, both sides have begun a real second choice. If the last breakup was just a small stumbling block between lovers, the crisis at this time is the real storm. In this case, the so-called experience is not enough for C to give up his vision for a new future, not to mention that the colored skirt corners of the future have been pinched by D in his hand. At this time, B, who was completely denied in reality, has been twisted out of control. At this time, in C's eyes, AB's beautiful experience has become a moral burden; for B, that experience has become a sweet poison. In his nostalgia, he finally realized the unparalleled significance of A to him. The sad thing is: the person he really misses is still the original A instead of the current C. It is also based on this that the "recovery" in reality is destined to be only a farce that breaks up. Those things that seem to be the most precious have slowly changed their taste in this way. After the dust settles, everything can only be melted into the photo frame, waiting for the years to slowly turn yellow, everything seems to be doomed. Afterwards, B and C who are going down the river may become GHRJK and meet LMNO... Of course, it is also possible to stop there. Looking back and looking around, BC will continue forever.

The rest is more open: if you believe that life is a cycle, maybe after the plot develops to YZ, there will be an AB reunion, or a reunion. If you believe that life is just a journey, then I can only say that in the journey, going upstream only exists in beautiful imagination. In the face of the past that cannot be returned, the best way to deal with it may only be "don't forget".

This story tells us: 1. Whether it is love or marriage, the best way to preserve freshness is nothing more than: don't forget the original intention, and be rich together. 2. Never try to reinvent your partner, love him or her as an independent person, not an imaginary plastic model. Otherwise, in the sense of result, what you set out to create must be someone else's groom or bride. 3. Rejection and reflection are different. Rejection is rejecting change, while reflection is actively seeking enrichment. As the old saying goes, it's not difficult to focus on a person's strengths or weaknesses. It's rare that you can clearly recognize his changes and actively adjust your attitude and behavior to deal with it calmly. Because B is a person who is not very good at reflection, he is always half a beat, so in this sense, I don't like him. Although, in the story, his words became less and less, his heart became weaker and weaker, and his back became more and more sad.

In conclusion: "Annie Hall" is life, not comedy. In Woody Allen's panorama of love, men are arrogant and women are vain and fickle. This is a great consumption, desire and boredom are pulled back and forth, possession and possession are reversed repeatedly. Each speaks his own words, and each gets his own way. Such stories often start with enthusiasm and end with exhaustion, and then say goodbye, miss, reflect, recall, and cherish each other. In such dramas, chance is necessarily the most common way to appear. However, despite this, Woody Allen, who used a joke at the beginning and end of the film to ridicule himself "seemingly out of the way, but actually in it" still firmly believes that even if love is irrational, crazy, and absurd, we are still eager to experience...
