And if you just look at the color of the film, you will quickly find that the whole film is mostly dark and melancholic.
The contradiction and fusion of the two are actually the style of the whole film.
Those sweet French chansons mourn the loss of people and love, but also praise the rebirth and return of love.
In fact, the name of each chapter well expresses the main point of the story.
[Leave] [Absent] [Return]
The phrase omitting the subject is not difficult to guess.
The end of the departure is Julie's death.
The beginning of the absence was the intervention of sister Julie, and a series of chaotic relationships that followed, and the end fell on the back of Eastman and Ewan leaving with their hands behind their backs.
The beginning of the return is the conversation between Alice and Julie’s mother, which symbolizes that the chaotic relationship has begun to be sorted out, interspersed with the embrace of Eastman and Ewan.
And the end of the comeback, and the end of the whole film, is their kiss on the rooftop.
It's all here, in fact, everyone can see what the omitted subject is.
Love. The departure of love, the absence of love, the return of love.
Eastman is undoubtedly in love with Julie. He walked on the street alone, singing a song expressing his inner chill. He walked through the street where she fell, thinking of the illusion of that night in his mind. He pretended to be okay and refused. Others care about them, but go to the bar they often go alone in a daze.
And in this chill, he met Ai Wang.
This warm and simple boy expressed his love directly and simply, waiting for him to come home at the door of the newspaper where he worked every day, watching him with curious and nostalgic eyes.
I admire his perseverance and straightforwardness. When he sang "This fence between you and me, who has the key to open, cross the fence and leave behind my confusion, stand firm and stare at me", I walked straight towards Eastman. It’s already certain that he can walk straight into Eastman’s cold and lonely heart, because he is truly the incarnation of love itself, regardless of gender, age, and whether you are still attached to the past or not, I will walk towards you. .
Because I love you.
For Eastman, Julie is a love that cannot be erased, but that is also from the past.
Because she was no longer there, even if she didn't go to see her burial, even if she sealed herself in the December winter night, she would never come back.
And love can come back.
And in a more pure and simple way, without the stimulation of a third person, no bridge of love, just him and him, one-on-one.
Eastman met Ai Wang when he was most depressed, and the flame of love gradually touched the frozen heart.
Ai Wang heard him sing "Please approach quietly and hunt her struggling in my heart when they first embraced each other, and when you caught her, please ignore the crying and pleading, please understand , She must die, die in my heart."
Ai Wang cried at that time. He knew so deeply the pain in the heart of his loved one that he couldn't stop the painful tears.
But it's as if Eastman sings in the same song, "So... burn, when you sink into my bed of ice, hold me in your arms, I will melt, no more sorrow, far away from depression."
Ai Wang ended up like lava, washing away his heavy shadow and pain.
What’s interesting is that Eastman went to Julie’s grave the next day. Judging from the illusion that Julie sang "Why are you late" and the previous scenes of her burial, Eastman never arrived. Over here.
It is an obvious escape.
But after the night with Ai Wang, he came to Julie's grave and sat until dark.
Julie in the illusion sang sadly, "My dear, this is too weird, looking back at your destiny, this feeling can be regarded as a remembrance", no matter what, she has become a memory in his life. And he was finally able to come to the front of her tomb.
And who is occupying Eastman's heart at this time? Even if he is unwilling to admit, unwilling to face, unwilling to start, even if he sings "Even if I am lost again, there is no love between me and you", he still can't stop finding that boy on every signboard passing by. shadow.
Brienne
Yes! It is here
The rainbow-colored cry me river
Petit (child),
he was just tending towards warm love in the dark, "I don't know what to do, I can only come back here to find you again, put your arms in your arms and leave the mud," but accidentally , Let love return "I seem to hear that I love you".
Ai Wang sang briskly, it was his sly little threat, "You can bend my arms if you want me, you can stay in my bed and lie in my blanket, but if you want this, please listen to me. I love you."
Eastman weakly resisted, the boy with "the smell of rain, ocean and crepes".
Youth sing, please listen to me say I love you.
Only the last three words were swallowed by his kiss.
Once lost the one who loved me, I faced love again.
It's just that this time I don't want to lose it again, so I would rather dilute the strongest love into a long holding hand.
The whisper in that kiss.
Love me less, but love me longer.

Something to talk about casually.
I love this film, the kind of sad but not sad atmosphere, the kind of deep emotion.
There is no big picture, not even a climax paragraph.
It's just a story of a young man regaining it after being lost.
It's just a certain emotion rendered by those beautiful chansons, and French seems so charming at this time. (By the way, thank you for the powerful subtitles group that can turn every lyrics to the fullest, I respect you!) The
photography style is quite distinctive, and the interlacing of the mirrors is very good.
In short, it is very exquisite made in France.
And the character... (to be exposed to be exposed)
Ai Wang is really a cute and beautiful boy, and Eastman is a sad look of literature and art... the profile is especially like a statue.
And between them, I can only say that they are too cute, too cute (completely exposed).
The four sections are all wonderful and extraordinary.
Whether it is the wonderful "debate" about eternal love, short-term love, and taboo love at the beginning.
It was Ai Wang's confession that he went forward courageously in the middle.
Or the solo singing of that intimate drama that is so beautiful and pure that it is impossible to confuse.
And the duet about the final answer to love that must be mentioned at the end.
Both are invincibly beautiful.
So I ended up with their lyrics.
Have you ever loved for love?
Have you bitten the forbidden fruit just to taste the sweet flavor?
Are you lost for love?
The mystery of your tired eyes
makes you muddled. The mystery of
this dazed mystery
makes me crazy.
Please wash me away... The
unbearable memories in the muddy stream,
but if you want to warm your arms
and get out of this chaotic mud
, please listen I say I love you.
