- [2046]
In fact, I should have gone to bed long ago, and I don't know if it is the effect of anti-inflammatory drugs. The drowsiness came very early tonight.
After watching Wong Kar Wai's [2046], the dialogue between Zhang Ziyi and Tony Leung in the film is reflected in my mind.
Maybe I almost took it seriously, and regarded Mr. Zhou (Liang Chaowei)'s short-lived tenderness for Bai Ling (Zhang Ziyi) as forever, until Mr. Zhou took out two hundred yuan from his wallet and handed it to Bai Ling. Compensate for your torn clothes.
Accepting it is humiliation, but admitting that she was in love first may be even more embarrassing. She said: I will charge you ten yuan, which is considered a cheap sale to you. If you need it in the future, it is still this price.
For Mr. Zhou, as long as Bai Ling accepts gifts or banknotes, even if it is a little, it seems that everything is not indebted, and he will feel at ease. Or in Bai Ling's opinion, her symbolic acceptance of ten yuan can make Mr. Zhou feel that he has always owed her emotionally, until one day, she realized that he would not even pay ten yuan again.
*Slowly I began to doubt myself, she didn't respond to you, not necessarily because she was slow, but maybe because she didn't like you at all. In the end, I finally realized that some things cannot be forced, and the only thing I can do is to give up.
——【2046】
【2046】and Wong Kar-wai's early work "In the Mood for Love" is inextricably linked. If you have seen it, it seems that Mr. Zhou's ruthlessness towards Bai Ling has more room for understanding.
I have been thinking, whether this passage in the novel "2046" written by Mr. Zhou is a question of Su Lizhen (played by Maggie Cheung) in "In the Mood for Love", or an answer to Bai Ling in "2046", or both All are reasonable answers.
How come there are so many "forever"
appearing in [2046] is the clue that runs through the two films, so indifferent, but it has become my favorite sentence after all.
Mr. Zhou finally closed his heart for Su Lizhen, even if he repeatedly struggled to think whether he missed it or whether everything was just an illusion in his heart.
*Actually, love is time-limited. If I meet her too early or too late, the result will not work. If I meet her first in another time or space, the ending may be different.
——【2046】
How long it will take to leave 2046, no one knows. Some people can leave without much effort, but for some it takes a long time, a lot of effort, and even bruises. In 【2046】, this seemingly independent film is full of struggle, desire, emptiness and regret. It is not so much an independent film as it is a memory of tearing open the scars and exploring Mr. Zhou's seemingly unrestrained romantic life. The torture left behind, he still writes novels. In the novels, he can give the results he wants, but in reality, he is looking forward to different endings.
On the journey of 2046, there was a period of 1224 and 1225, where it was extremely cold, and all the people in the car had to hug each other to keep warm, but he was alone. This may be the best answer for Mr. Zhou to temporarily send tenderness to Bai Ling. The road to 2046 is too long, and he already feels lonely.
Everyone went to 2046 to retrieve their lost memories, but he was the only one who came back. Why did he want to come back? Many people asked him from the beginning of the film, but he never answered until the end. At the moment of the ending, he was still on the train returning from 2046, and it seemed that everything was answered again.
As said at the beginning of the film, all people who go to 2046 have only one purpose, that is to retrieve their lost memories, but he was trapped on the train back from 2046 forever by his memories.
