People over sixty years of age begin to decline in physical and mental energy. They are no longer so eager and ecstatic about beautiful things and wonderful feelings. They no longer easily believe and accept love, especially the love of beautiful girls, but professors are still Unable to resist the beauty in front of her, student Consula Castillo is different, "She has a perfect posture, like a young and promising lawyer, with a unique mature charm, she knows she is beautiful, but I don’t know how to use it.” University professors are a career that is easy to provoke trouble, so every year before the exam scores are obtained, people of justice will post a harassment prevention hotline on the walls of the professors’ offices, reminding those girls who want to take shortcuts and take shortcuts. Take care of yourself. Although Professor Kebusch is single, he never messes with female students. He consciously does not have private contact with students before the test scores are released every year, but after the scores are released, he will take the initiative to hold a cocktail party to communicate with his students. , often works very well. "You know you are special, you have an elegant seriousness", these words are ambiguous in politeness. In fact, there is not much difference between before and after the test. The contact between professors and female students is only less utilitarian and purposeful, and more pure emotional communication. In Western countries, it is neither illegal nor illegal to seduce a woman with words, which is pleasing to both parties.

Professor Kebushi is a celebrity, he has a weekly TV interview with him on literature, and in his spare time he has a part-time job writing drama reviews for The New Yorker magazine, and Consula reminds him, "Don't forget your corruption. The custom book "The Source of American Hedonism", apparently Consula has read his book. At the professor's house, the professor played the piano for Consula, Consula's affectionate confession "You are very charming "The man". When a man and a widow are in the same room, sitting side by side, it is difficult to think without distractions; and when the skin touches, it is impossible to think that nothing is possible, and what should happen just happens naturally. Status and status The disparity makes the girl feel that she has the capital to show off even if she sleeps with an old man, and the embarrassment caused by the disparity in age also becomes natural. Afterwards, the professor and old friend bluntly said, "I am one of her novel experiences, and she will remember me. This old man who also gave her cultural knowledge in the intimacy experience.” In fact, the girl also had five boyfriends dating experience, and the two of them each got what they needed, without any fetters and obstacles in terms of morality and interests.

As the relationship between the two deepened, the professor who was originally independent and free, and who could afford to let go, found that his emotions had also changed, and he began to feel jealous. From time to time, he thought that he could not have her forever, and even did not give her every day. I am anxious about making calls, I am still anxious after I have called, and I am afraid that young men will take her away, but I am often overwhelmed by lingering with her. The old friend reminded him that long pain is worse than short pain, passive is worse than active, it is time to untie the girl's bondage to him. So the professor wanted to take the girl on a romantic trip, ending in Venice, Italy, and tell her it was over. It's a pity that the plan is not as good as changing. On the night when the girl was away, the professor felt restless and restless, thinking about where the girl was. All because she said she loved him a thousand times. I couldn't help but the professor went to the karaoke hall, which made the girl annoyed "Do you want to ruin everything? You have to start trusting me".

In the bathroom, the professor and the old friend confessed that they did not expect to end their relationship in such a stupid and embarrassing way, "she won't want to see me again", which caused the old friend to laugh. Unexpectedly, the girl called the professor and asked a sharp question, "What are you going to do with me? The two were glued together like lacquer. I only heard that Chinese girls tend to stick to the one after they have sex with men. The man asked, "What are you going to do with me? "I did not expect that there are such traditional girls in the West who do not seek independence.

The girl invited the professor to see her family again and again, but the professor did not have the courage to face it and gave up repeatedly. The girl cut off contact with the professor in annoyance. The death of an old friend and the loss of a girl left the professor depressed and unhappy until two years later. On New Year's Eve, the girl took the initiative to call the professor, and the two met again. The girl told the professor that she had breast cancer. I haven't had a new boyfriend again, I lost interest in it, what I thought was important in the past is stupid now, and I regret the wasted time... In the ward, the girl who lost her breast thought she was no longer beautiful and was sad, but it was more than just worrying. The world is really unpredictable. The relationship between the professor and the girl has always been a worry for the elderly professor. Now at least it is evened out, and even the balance of advantage has been tilted towards the professor. "I will miss you", the girl took the initiative to propose. Break up, "I'm right here", the professor answered the girl firmly.

    "The future with you terrifies me, and the relationship of my life has passed in a hurry, because this way I can convince myself that I am not alone..." Except for the slightly clichéd cancer news at the end, the truth of the film It really hit me. The exhausted and decaying body has never compromised in the face of desire, but it is inevitable that it will gradually lose self-confidence. Aging is indeed a helpless and delicate thing, just like the beginning of the film

    If there is more courage and affirmation, it will be happy. The blank space at the end is limitless to imagination.

Elegy quotes

  • David Kepesh: I think it was Betty Davis who said old age is not for sissies. But it was Tolstoy who said the biggest surprise in a man's life is old age. Old age sneaks up on you, and the next thing you know you're asking yourself, I'm asking myself, why can't an old man act his real age? How is it possible for me to still be involved in the carnal aspects of the human comedy? Because, in my head, nothing has changed.

  • David Kepesh: She is a throwback to a completely different time. She has to be wooed.
