Even if you don't catch a cold at all about the love in the film, you can still watch it with great interest. We can completely look at the whole film as a book of weirdos and pranksters. The people who love Meili help include: Bai Tuotu who has been estranged from her daughter for many years, colleagues in the restaurant, Joseph who is broken in love, the landlady who was betrayed by her husband, the lonely old painter, the frustrated writer, and the honest love of Diana who is always angry The clerk of the fruit and vegetable shop, and the father who lacks the joy of life. There are strangers, colleagues, neighbors, and relatives among these people. They have very little intersection, but they all have one thing in common: they are undoubtedly lonely. And these lonely people, including the love of beauty, have some weird hobbies, or fun, such as popping bubbles on plastic foam, punching holes in the leaves of potted plants, collecting small pieces of stone to float, and handles. Insert it into beans, collect photos of shredded and discarded photo stickers, take footprints, watch injured bullfighters, watch failed athletes, draw a Renoir picture a year, eat chicken from the back of chicken, etc. These seemingly ridiculous hobbies (quirks) are "evolved" by those who are lonely to fight loneliness, so that when they are bitten by loneliness, they can be better and calmer. French writer Balzac said: People who have no hobbies are simply the devil. Yes, because the devil has no sense of loneliness, no human-specific troubles.
The way Aimei helps these lonely people is quite interesting. Yes, those actions full of love and justice are carried out through pranks. Make a psychic phone call to make Bai Tuotu regain his childhood and resolve to reconcile with his daughter; with a key to play tricks on the mean fruit and vegetable shop owner; steal a letter from the landlady and forge a sincere love that is thirty years late Love letter; stole the dwarf, mailed the wind and light, and euphemistically persuaded his father to go out of the house and see the world. Such all kinds of methods are diverse and varied. We will never forget that when Ai Meili was a child, revenge for deceiving her neighbors was through pranks. The various pranks of Ai Meili in adulthood undoubtedly continue the childhood behavior pattern and maintain a childlike innocence. At the same time, it also implies that Ai Meili has continued the loneliness since childhood. It’s worth mentioning that the flirting with the sweetheart is done in a harmless prank way. Under the whimsy of Aimei, the photo camera is not just as simple as taking pictures, it has magical functions. Through this machine, Amelie revealed to Lenno the identity of the mysterious person in the photo, and solved the long-standing suspicion of Lenno. Through this machine, Amelie told Lenno the time and place of their date. From these pranks or good jokes, we can see that the love of beauty is to help others and contact others in an indirect and anonymous way. The love of beauty who is alone for too long is afraid of direct contact with people and fear of confrontation with others. Symptoms of love and loneliness. The love of beauty in loneliness, the only safe, comfortable and relaxing place is in her own fantasy world. Lonely people are prone to fantasies. Both Love Beauty and Liannuo spend a lot of time in the country of fantasy, but lack common sense and judgment of the real world. Even a photo sticker machine repairman makes them give birth to many supernatural imaginations.
The results of Aimei’s helping others are remarkable: Bai Tuotu enjoys family happiness, the landlady is comforted, his father finally goes out of the house to travel, the vegetable and fruit shop assistant even begins to learn to paint, and the old painter successfully draws a cup of water. The girl's expression cheered up the frustrated writer. These people are all out of loneliness, but the problem of loving beautiful herself has yet to be solved. After all, she can't always comfort herself by fantasy. She has a secret love for Lenno, but she always trembles, cringes, and suffers from gains and losses in action. This kind of hide-and-seek love is so inefficient that it almost ends in hopelessness. When the beauty was in fear, foreign aid came unexpectedly. The old painter, known as the glass man, is impressed by the crystal heart who loves beauty, and is determined to help love beauty out of her loneliness. The old painter is the ally that Ai Meili found when fighting the lonely army. They spy on each other with binoculars. It is not so much offending each other's privacy as a way of caring for each other. The old painter kept giving her hints and encouragement, guiding her out of the siege of loneliness, and finding her true love. At a critical moment, a video of the old painter made Aimei abandon the circuitous strategy of outflanking with little effect and turn to the love highland. Attack positively, gather courage, and open the door to find your love.
The film's narration has a joking taste, and the tone is brisk. This is a joyful urban fairy tale with the happy ending that everyone expects. I can't help but think of another Japanese film "The Life of the Disgusted Pine" with a similar theme. Pine nuts and the beautiful childhood were not happy, and the love of beauty was even worse. Her father did not even hug her. Her only friend, Xiaoyu, was so depressed that she was about to commit suicide. She still couldn't go to school and had no playmates, so she could only imagine it. The monster is company, and the one who accompanies her on the swing is only a teddy bear. But their difference lies in their attitude towards the weak. The first step in Songzi's dislike is because she dislikes and hates her sick sister, because her sister has received more care from her parents, and her beautiful childhood is even more unfortunate, but not because of it. Become vicious and hostile towards others, on the contrary, help others with enthusiasm. The two have different starting points, and the rewards are naturally different. The pine nuts have planted dislikes and gained dislikes. Love and beauty spread love and love, and love also floods her. At the end, Aimei smiled sweetly and contentedly holding her trophy, no one would be jealous of her happiness, no one would bear the heart to rewrite this ending.
The film deliberately mentions time at the beginning and at the end, very precise time. The beginning is the conception and birth of Aimei, and the end is Aimei and Liannuo eventually become lovers. The time reminder at the end implies that finding true love is like getting a new life. It is a major moment in her life, and its significance is no less than birth. Furthermore, a beautiful and kind-hearted person overcomes loneliness and gains happiness, which is no less than a major historical event, and is worthy of a big book. So, let us remember this historical moment: At 11 am on September 28, 1997, the human coalition won a beautiful round in the war against loneliness.
