With you, eternal time is not exile

First, pay tribute to the great translators. The translation and interpretation of various musical instruments, names, theories, events, and books that have appeared is really great. You are cute, it's hard work.
Secondly, pay tribute to the director. I like this kind of movies with a huge amount of knowledge the most, citing classics, but imagination is fantastic. It feels like I admired Jin Yong before.



There are many legends about vampires.
Some people say that vampires are the offspring of Lilith. Lilith was Adam's first wife. As a feminist awakener, of course, he suffered collective revenge from the male gods, exiled, and persecuted offspring. In a positive response, she worked hard to have children and kill Adam's offspring. But in any case, she and her descendants were always banished.
It is also said that Cain, Adam's eldest son, killed his brother Abel because of jealousy. He was banished and cursed and became a vampire. And his descendants are also vampires.
In any case, vampires are always a group of exiled groups that are not seen by the gods.
For their exile, unlike others, it does not necessarily mean living in a harsh environment. Rather, he can't return to the sun, wandering in the vast sea of ​​time forever, and can't find the meaning of survival. In fact, they were banished to the wasteland of time. This place is barren and only oneself is left.

I always think that vampires are the poorest species in the world.
Live forever in the dark and not be loved. Even if there is an eternal lifespan, what is the use of superhuman abilities.
In fact, it is not just a vampire, I have a strange pity for everything that is immortal. Although it doesn't matter to me.
Seeing that Dracula waited for four hundred years to finally find his reincarnation wife, Zi Xuan has been searching for the reincarnated Xu Changqing for life. Not only love, but also friendship, Legolas bid farewell to Aragorn, and farewell to Jimley.
People who have rights always want eternal life. But for ordinary people, in front of feelings, unless they can live forever together, time will always be the shackles of the spirit. Even if it is immortal, time is more likely to become a killer of emotions.
To live forever with the one you love is naturally a good thing. But, one day love is killed by time?
He returned to the state of being alone again, wandering in the cage of boundless time, but could do nothing but wander. Because I have been alive for too long, I have done everything I can do. With the full and loving life before, the future without love will become more empty.

The vampires in this film are different.
They are two people who have lived together for hundreds of years. Even though sometimes the body is not together, the heart is together.
When two people miss each other, they live together. If we see enough, we separate. Don't force yourself to be with each other forever, until one day all your feelings are consumed.
You like reading, I like music, each has his own life. You don't stick to me, I don't stick to you. But our hearts are together. Call anytime, video. I miss you, so I will call you proudly. If you are depressed, I will enlighten you. And you always take the risk to come here without hesitation. You understand me, I understand you. You can get married and play if you have nothing to do.
Plus, if you have money, it doesn't matter if your sister doesn't drag her family.
This kind of setting is the happiest in the world.
As long as there is a lover with him, the endless life is no longer the exile of God. Loneliness is not completely lonely. Because you know that there is always someone who will listen to you and understand you.

Naturally, even so, they are still lonely. Otherwise Eve would not greet all the animals and plants kindly, and Adam would not want to die.
After seeing the world, no waves can cause ripples in their hearts. Praise, slander, help, disturb, it is really easy to make people feel irresistible. It's like Adam no longer wants to post music, Marlowe doesn't want to post any more, Eve turns a blind eye to people on the roadside who ask her if she wants goods (later Adam is mostly hungry when he gets angry).
Adam's reaction to loneliness is more obvious, just because unlike Eve, who is a young literary girl who only likes to read, with books, Adam's love life is very beautiful; Adam has experienced such a glorious period from the 16th century to the 19th century. In the past, seeing the rundown of Detroit today, people are blindly living like walking dead, and it is easier to feel that they don’t want to play well with this world.
Just imagine, if you understand everything you want to understand, and find that there are no new things, and the world around you is getting worse every day, would you want to die?

Fortunately, Adam has Eve, and Eve is used to Adam's death, so if Adam's mood is wrong, Eve can feel it and persuade him in time.
And Adam didn't really want to die, otherwise, he wouldn't be angry when Eve pointed the gun at himself. Without love, he will not be alive.

Although there is no idea in the film what will happen to them tomorrow, at least the end is good.

The soundtrack of the film is very good, and it has that kind of death, decadent atmosphere. The Funnel of Love at the beginning was accompanied by the Queen's fashion show, Dou Sen sells meat, and the foot record, spinning and montage, you can't stop in an instant, okay.
The dying atmosphere of Tangier and Detroit is so beautiful.
The background always reveals accurately-old paper is information that has been alive for hundreds of years. The colors and collocation are so beautiful, everything about the bed seems to be moved out of an oil painting.
I really like the large amount of information, the quotation from the classics, but the unconstrained texture. It's like midnight in Paris, but it's not. Because Jia Muxu actually ruined a lot of celebrities secretly: for example-Shakespeare-the ancestor of the actor's entry into the rotten country.
He also expressed his dissatisfaction with the world.
I never knew that the original vampire movie could be made like this, and Jia Muxu really opened the door to a new world. Elegance, but there is another way of elegance. Drinking blood in a beautiful cup is like drinking red wine in a goblet, except that it seems to disdain the same cup as a human. The complicated meeting ceremony, stupefied is to take off the gloves off the texture of the clothes. All actions are full of lust but self-denial. And the life of a vampire has become more everyday. They will also be hungry. Vampires in the 21st century are also afraid of the police and don't want to deal with dead bodies. It's just—do they not need to shit?

Let's talk about the funny place:
Doctor play, pigtail smashed, orgasm face after drinking and small erect fangs [I like Queen Tilda's red lips after drinking blood, she drank the most beautiful], off-line sister Ava, said go and fuck It's so funny when you each other and you two pretend to be fake.

Let me say one more-I actually like Mia very much. I always think she is very cold, and I didn't expect to play the second force as well.

To be honest, this movie is really funny. Dou Sen keeps saying no. Everything the queen faces is like coaxing a child, her sister is sick with snakes.
However, I just cried. The expressions of the two people in the last scene were so funny, I just watched that scene and cried.
Maybe I am still sick. That’s right, I’m a highly compelling talent, and Wong Kar-wai’s films cried one by one (I didn’t understand it in 2046, I didn’t watch the blueberry love cry because I thought it was fake). . .
But I still think that although the director says only lovers left alive, I think the most important thing is don’t let only one lover alive.
I am not a lover , even for me, love is at the end of the row, so I always I think people have lived for too long. Does it really make sense to live for so long?
But think carefully, when you don’t know how far you have to go, especially when you know that this road will never end. Only one who loves you can make you rely on someone who understands you can make you go on. And this person will make you more willing to go on.
Never want to beat time, as if you were exiled to a place of bitter cold, you can't beat that place.
However, with your company, eternal time is not exile.

    Force is too high, not rock is not happy...

    The best orthodox vampire movie in recent years, it's a match made in heaven with psychedelic rock. Many American dramas have no connotation when they understand vampires as zombies. The subject itself is very charming and romantic. In fact, it should focus on literary films. The image of thin, sensitive, pale, morbid, cold, cruel, bloodthirsty and alienated, supplemented by long historical allusions The thickness and warmth of her make it possible for any beautiful delusion to exist. The long night is endless, the ghosts are desolate, the wild crickets sound, only love lives forever. // PS. Judging from the temperament of the movie, Tilda Swinton may not really be human. .
