An old-fashioned topic, if you meet true love after marriage, will you get divorced?
A friend of mine, who is married, discussed this topic with another married person (I, as a single dog, didn't even have a chance to participate in the discussion). They did not use the decisive word "true love", but put it another way: "If you meet someone better than your partner after marriage, will you get a divorce?"
Both of them said that this kind of situation is too frequent after marriage, and it is taken for granted. If divorce is due to this reason, then there will be endless marriages and divorces in the days to come. Under the firefly-like gaze of my eyes, the two exchanged the regret and ambiguity that excluded me with their eyes.
This view seems to be irreplaceable in "Long Dreams of the Covered Bridge". Even if it seems, to Francesca, Robert is far superior to her husband Richard. Like her, he has wild ideals in life. The difference is that Robert lives far away and lives in poetry. He has completed the step of "dreaming" and has become a beautiful person. Even using "excellent" to describe him in Francesca's eyes shows mediocrity in words. Robert is Francesca's dream.
Husband Richard has very few appearances in the film. This is a sturdy farmer, rude and sincere. His body has a strong sense of life, and the sense of life shaped by ham, bread and milk is swimming on him. wanton. He brought Francesca, who embraced the American dream, to the United States, and let him live in the American countryside - he thought he was helping his beloved woman realize her ideal. Francesca did realize her dream of living in the United States, only to find that it is not what she imagined. She reads poetry, longs for a foreign land, and is a solid literary youth. As a result, after marriage, she lived the same ordinary life as in the small Italian town where she was born. She couldn't talk about love for her husband. At that time, it was also because he could bring her to the United States to get married. Time brought more mutual support of benevolence and righteousness. Running through too much complexity and triviality of married life, love is so single, pure and sudden, not everyone can perceive it, it is full of fatal temptations. Like drugs, like a dead end, the sky is falling apart, unreasonable, and unable to control oneself.
Meryl Streep is the most amazing actress in the world. When she plays a housewife, she is so healthy and strong, full of a sense of security, the audience can even smell the aroma of soap and bread mixed with sweat on her body. That's the charm of keeping life in good order. Only, the lack of erotic flavor. You believe she is a capable wife, a competent mother, and a good neighbor who is not afraid of trouble. But, you can't imagine the beauty of the curves of this body, or the way this woman's eyes flow - it's immoral.
However, when this healthy, down-to-earth, and simple housewife fell in love, she suddenly returned to the age of 16. She became shy and vulnerable without pretentiousness, and hormones lingered in the small kitchen. She was happy or sullen, crying or crying. It is ambiguous, like a stream of rose-scented water, gurgling overflowing the screen.
The first time the two were cooking together in the kitchen, the most intimate contact was the arms that approached when they handed a carrot. However, this vegetable with a rich meaning made both parties lustful and the audience thirsty. At the dinner table, Francesca cocked her feet excitedly, when she was Lolita. She is uncertain, and because she perceives love, she perceives danger. It was this fragility that turned the sturdy Streep into a fragile young girl, like a full-bodied verdant plant, overflowing with sap that almost broke through the stem wall.
Clint Eastwood is extremely sexy, and her lustrous body is even more sexy in her slovenly clothing, sexy but unknowing, but a precious gentleman. The kindness he made to a "slut" who was spurned by the townspeople in the restaurant, combined with his shiny body, can make people let go of the prejudice against the third party and understand how much Francesca will use in the future. Perseverance rejects the decision to elope.
The film focuses on a few rare scenes, Francesca's home, car, Rothman Bridge, respectively lust, elopement and love. Lust is short-lived, and the ruins of love have become Francesca's lifelong concern, and elopement seems to be only a little closer to being realized.
The separate scene is a simile. Francesca, who is sitting in her car with her husband, stops behind Robert's drifting car at the red light. The red light goes out and the green light turns on. Robert doesn't move. He is waiting for her to end. s Choice.
Francesca took the door handle and slowly twisted it in the direction it was about to open. Immediately, she will be able to get out of the car in a hurry. The life she dreams of is only the moment when the door is opened and closed! It's close at hand, but it's more like a fantasy. Her husband honked a whistle, allowing both Robert and her to make a choice. But it seems that if the whistle is issued later, the story will be different.
But at every intersection of fate, there is such a timely whistle.
One of the reasons Francesca couldn't leave was that her husband was a good man and he shouldn't have had this kind of thing happen to him. However, I think, should a good person become a "helpless forced option" all his life?
At the end of the story, Francesca's two children wake up from their mother's regrettable love story, begin to answer their marriage, and reunite their mother with their love at the Roseman Bridge. Richard, the poor good man, was once again left behind. The cemetery where he was buried was empty.
Good people should not be deceived and treated like this.
