The cheerful tap dance rhythm and clap are accompanied by flamenco guitars, but the singing is so melodious, sad but not hurt. A Volver sings Cruz's anxiety, struggle, brokenness and courage. It is for her daughter's tenacity and persistence, as well as her reconciliation and tolerance with her mother. It is the epitome of the spirit of three generations of women. Using this unusual tango adagio (Albinoni adagio) creates a peculiar auditory experience, sad but not mournful, weak but not weak. It can not only show the passionate and unrestrained personality of the Spanish nation, but also express the beauty and strength of women's warmth.
"Return" is amazing in that while it builds the integrity of a world where men are ignored or excluded, it doesn't make too many comments on men. For an unhappy life, neither the badness nor the absence of a man can stop a woman's life from running.
With a violent, fast-moving rhythm, together with the sins of the two women's final attachment to a man, "The End of the Road" pushes the conflict to a climax. The ending is a way out in the form of disillusionment, but there is no way out. In "Return", women's logic operates independently of the vocabulary and principles defined by men. The trivial life and private language, humorous superstition and ignorant fluke, the care of conscience and the awakening of family love, all infiltrate the woman's mind in a trivial and stoic way.
The song is "The Call of Life" and I seem to feel that life is saying "come back" with open arms to me, no matter how hard it is.
