fall in love

In a not-so-novel encounter, he knocked her down, lifted her up, cared, and ran away; she covered him up, took him in, took care of her, fell in love, and pursued her forever.
"This key can open the most important door". Where exactly is the door of this reality, it did not appear until the end. Perhaps it was found after 30 years, which opened up all her memories and emotions for decades; perhaps in the beginning, her life was firmly locked.
All of her later films repeat almost the same theme: the pursuit. Leaving or entering, persistently, blurs the starting point.
After an accident, she disappeared from the public eye and lost her keys. "The accident made me know that I will grow old one day, and I don't want him to see my old age."
"I love him so much, but I don't remember what he looks like." She covered her face and wept.
The water lily symbolizes "innocence", and the painter seems to have only one symbol left. What she pursued so hard might just be the pursuit itself. Love innocence? In love with innocence? In love with love?
Does she love painters? who knows.
How many people persistently pursue a contour that is no longer clear, and have long forgotten to fall in love with a clear shadow, or fall in love with love.

    From the 65th minute, there is a 5-minute montage passage. This is the most beautiful passage. It plays the gorgeous movement of the heroine's life and constitutes the theme: she has been acting in the same play all her life. And, waiting for a lifetime to take a look, how to be greedy. What's more, she can shout: "I love him more day by day!"... "I have been chasing him because I like him." It was a girl's feelings, she kept it for life.
