There are no dazzling computer stunts, no grand war scenes, and no exciting violent collisions... The gay men who have been misled into the cinema by the propaganda of "epic war movies" must be will be very disappointed. However, I like it. How deep does it have to be? Do you have to have a lot of wisdom in life? Is there truth, goodness, and beauty not enough? There is love, there is friendship, there is joy, and there is pain, are these not touching enough? Even if it is so straightforward, it has never played with any structural tricks and visual skills...


——Aesthetic love, a well-structured old-fashioned love triangle, but the intense intertwining of intellectual and emotional contradictions is very interesting. The process and the ending are impeccable (except the heroine's kindness and enthusiasm are a little abrupt when they first meet...). People who shouldn't win don't win, people who shouldn't lose don't lose, get too much and end up with nothing... a fair ending. In fact, in my eyes, these three people who love each other and are destined to not coexist are winners, because they all won the love of the other party - the truest, purest and deepest true love in the world. Every protagonist in it is close to "perfect" on the outside and inside (a family view), and even if there are seemingly inappropriate words and deeds, there is nothing to blame (still a family view)... This is the type of story I like.

The heroine's delicate, graceful and elegant appearance is very suitable for my taste, and her clothes are mostly blue and green, which I like too much. Malachite green, blue-green, gray-green, light green, dark blue, lake blue, sapphire blue, light blue... These tones are in perfect harmony with the background of the times they lived in, the ocean that appeared in the picture again and again, and their deep and sad blue-green love. Very harmonious.

The hero's reason finally failed to overcome his feelings (if it can be defeated by reason, I don't know if it is called "love", at least it is not deep enough?), maybe because of this he lost the honor of "hero", and It took his life to win back his full personality...but I don't think he regrets it? !
The character of the second male protagonist is almost perfect, who can have the power to betray such a real capitalist? Except for "true love", it's better to start first... It's a pity that love really came before he appeared, and it was performed sincerely and naturally, so he had nothing to say... The shapes and films of the characters in it The tone and overall flavor are all to my liking. One of my favorite scenes is the heroine wearing a dreamlike veil and standing on the bow in a ritual-like dignified and holy posture, rafting in the mellow moonlight and slowly marching towards her destined husband... That moment , music, pictures, and the sad and helpless emotions permeating the river make the audience's vision, hearing, thoughts and emotions resonate strongly with the protagonist.

In fact, these two little people fell in love before the king intervened. In fact, the king was the real third party, so what should they do? Is the later affair understandable and acceptable? (Of course, it must be admitted that no matter how theoretically and emotionally based betrayal is, it cannot be honorable and will definitely cause harm.) Some people say that Tristan can tell the whole story before the big wedding and ask for The king gave Tristan himself the bride that Tristan had fought so hard to get back for him. I agree with this very much... The beauty was originally earned by Tristan through hard work, and it should belong to him in terms of emotion and reason! But he gave his hands to the king in return for his kindness. This also allows us to better understand the pain, grievance and unwillingness behind Tristan. If only the king knew the truth before he made a big mistake that will make all three of them regret for the rest of their lives, and then made a wise decision: to be generous to both (but he also fell in love with Isolde at first sight) ...how complete that must have been! I even "entered the play" for Isolde at the time, assuming that she would boldly admit all this, naively hoping that "some lovers will be married", and that "miracles" can appear in the world~ Hehe. But Tristan didn't give her any tacit understanding and commitment, how could she decide as a girl? At this point, Choi's withdrawal is a disappointing sigh, but understandable...so she could only whisper that heartbreaking, unforgettable thing for Choi to Tristan at the wedding - I will Take him as yours. How helpless, how affectionate, how unbearable!


Someone else said: Since Xiao Cui chose to give up later, he should turn his love into a revolutionary comradeship... They even gave up one hand for you... This is why I pouted: You are not "brothers are like brothers and sisters". "Women are like clothes" feudal backward thinking. Besides, Xiao Cui is not without the slightest reason and difficulties... Hehe, when it comes to comradeship that has been transformed into a revolution, it may be that standing up and talking will not hurt your back. It is easy for us to say, but difficult for others to do. Don't you think so? ! But it didn't work, did it? ! ! As I said before: if it can be overcome by reason (probably) it is not called "love", at least "not deep enough" - it turns out that Tristan did overestimate his reason and underestimate himself Love for Isolde. His initial concessions, cowardice, and later inability and loss of control are all caused by his character and emotional limitations... In fact, most love tragedies are caused by character tragedies - however, there are How many people will not have any character flaws and misjudgment?

This film allows us to witness, feel, move, and think about those things about love, and share love, resentment, sorrow, joy and helplessness with the characters in the film... This is the best effect a film can achieve— —So, this movie can be said to be living up to its mission, isn't it?
