    Several places reminded me of Sils Maria, and later found out that the two feminist films were directed by a couple. What the heroine watched in the cinema was an exact copy of Juliet Binoche, and the heroine finally sang A la claire fontaine. After reading the wiki, I realized why the movie is full of philosophers' names and book titles. The parents of the director/screenwriter are both philosophy professors, which is consistent with the character in the movie where the heroine and her...

    The rhythm of the film is unexpectedly "fast", and the span of months and months is a bit overwhelming. It was only after seeing the middle and latter part that I suddenly realized that on the surface, there was no great joy or sorrow, but I lost everything in my life without knowing it. This reappearance of life is too realistic and appropriate: we don’t even have time to lose what we have lost. In response, life is...

    Three and a half. This is a calm and distant film, as if watching Natalie's life by the sidelines, even if you understand the details, you still can't understand her. Maybe it's the distance that exists between the director and his mother, with a sense of sympathy, appreciation, and curiosity, like she doesn't understand why her mother doesn't let her put the cat's real name in it. This mystery is fun and loving. Then there is the fear of loneliness and...

    It's a bit like the setting of the "Children's Act" I'm reading. A female intellectual with a successful career is suddenly betrayed in middle age, loves her career and is facing life and death, and all the details of her life suddenly become important. I like the director's method; metaphysical philosophical discussions use long shots, crying, anger and embarrassment are stopped in one second, and the relationship with male students is on the edge of family affection and ambiguous, which is...

    Life is a fluid concept, there is no one-and-done choice, every period has new courses, new satisfaction, love, politics, philosophy, family affection, revolution... After disenchantment, "I" is full of love and golden light....

    Very poke, like it so much! Better than her husband. Personal level: mentally ill parents, cats, allergies, partners empathizing I don't dare to say about the future, but I agree with the character of Auntie and pursue that kind of calmness. #Knowing and doing one#. To be honest, I’m a little envious (in addition, when I’m fifty, I’m going to wear a floral...

    life's answer

    "All music is for watching, not listening."

    The husband's sentence at the beginning seems to be the director's revelation to the whole film. All the essence is hidden under the surface of the plot, and it appears in the dark irony. And how many people are willing to really open their "eyes"...

Things to Come quotes

  • Nathalie Chazeaux: I prefer a text a bit rhapsodic by someone who thinks out of the box over the bland writing of marketing fiends.

  • Nathalie Chazeaux: [quoting Jean-Jacques Rousseau] So long as we desire, we can do without happiness. We expect to achieve it. If happiness fails to come, hope persists, and illusion's charm lasts as long as the passion causing it. Thus, this condition suffices to itself and the anxiety it inflicts is a pleasure which supplants reality, perhaps bettering it. Woe to him who has nothing to desire! He loses everything he owns. We enjoy less what we obtain than what we desire, and are happy only before becoming so.
