Carnival loneliness

Will there be true love for actors who play other people on stage every day?

I don't know, maybe "Children in Paradise" knows.

One is a mime actor, all emotions are expressed with his body, the other is a serious drama actor, who expresses his emotions with a long monologue.

They fell in love with a woman together, one won her heart and the other won her body. The latter used the jealousy of the former to perfectly star in "Othello", while the former was drowned in the carnival crowd and could no longer find his beloved woman.

Is drama a re-enactment of human life in heaven? Maybe

Then the children of heaven still have nowhere to escape in the siege of love.

Let me ask: Who else can?

    That's great. Great. The performance, the lines, the play within the play, the three screenwriters are really wonderful. But what moved me the most was every time we met and said goodbye. I originally thought that Garance was so perfect as if it was just an ideal, but what does it matter to her in the end? Carnival and parting, people come and go, it seems that all of life. [If you watch it in the museum, you will cry like a dog. .

    More than 3 hours, a black and white masterpiece that is also divided into upper and lower parts with Gone with the Wind, with complex character relationships and plots. Although the hall is not big, it has a 100% occupancy rate. The queuing scene is like watching Skyfall. There is also a family of 4 adults and children watching a black and white movie in the 1940s. I don’t know if this situation is unique to France.

    Pierre-François Lacenaire: That's why they're so evasive. They give you the easy reply: a name, a title. But who they are really, who they are deep down, they conceal with great care.

  • Mme Hermine: You're being unreasonable.

    Baptiste: True, I'm unreasonable.
