My feelings after watching "The Fugitive Beibei"

In the tragic ending, Beibei failed to leave with the woman Gaby he liked. He didn't see Gaby when he boarded the boat. Two people missed it. After Beibei was arrested and taken off the ship by detectives, he wanted to see the ship again, I think He was looking forward to seeing the person on the boat. He saw it. Gaby appeared on the bow by accident. Beibei called Gaby's name loudly. However, Gaby did not hear the sound of the steam siren when the ship set off. She did not see Beibei. Bei, she even thought that Bei Bei was dead, the ship drove away, and Bei Bei committed suicide. I didn't expect it to end like this. Due to translation reasons, some lines make people's understanding a bit confusing, but the direction of the plot and the relationship between the characters can still be seen.

In fact, the relationship between Ribebe and the detective named Shliman and Gaby in the movie makes me feel a little puzzled. In other words, it is indescribable. The first is the relationship between Beibei and the detective. For example, Slimane is already so close to Beibei, and Beibei also knows that Slimane wants to catch him. However, the two people are not getting along like a policeman and a robber at all. They are not tit-for-tat, but He is commensurate with friends, but also seems to be full of hostility. I can only understand that they are fighting wits and courage, maybe Shliman doesn't want to catch Beibei in the traditional way, he is waiting for Beibei to show his feet. Let’s talk about Gabi and Beibei. In my opinion, the love between two people is an old stalk at first sight. Even I think the two people may not love so much. But I didn’t expect this woman to have her own old lover. Her splendor and wealth are all She was given it to her, but she still had the guts to be with Beibei, and she took the initiative to find the door. I have to say that she is a woman who likes danger, so I think she just likes Beibei. Maybe the level of likes is not very deep. And Beibei likes Gaby. What I can understand is that this woman is a beautiful person. She wears luxurious clothes and wears beautiful jewelry, but how do you say? Beibei has had many women, and many women also like him, but his attitude towards Gaby is different. He wants to be with this woman, even if there is danger, I think this is not just a novelty, maybe in Beibei’s Gaby represents Paris in the eyes, so Beibei will be happy and crazy because of this woman.

In my opinion, Beibei and Gabi have one thing in common, that is, they both like danger. Both of them give me a feeling that they know that there are tigers in the mountains and lean towards them. Gaby knows that Beibei is dangerous, but she Still willing to approach him. But Bebe knew that it is safe to stay in Kasbah. Almost everyone here protects him. He is still unsatisfied and still wants to leave here and go to Paris. In fact, I never understood why he wanted to be like this before. You can stay in a safe place, but he still wants to go to a dangerous place, but after seeing it, I seem to understand gradually, especially when a woman is singing in the latter part of the film, it seems that I can feel his mood. In this small town, he is the only one who wears like a gentleman. His behavior and thoughts are longing for Paris. He doesn't want to be trapped in a small place. He wants to find a place with a sense of belonging, even though it is dangerous.

In addition to the ending that impressed me, the woman in the movie who loved Beibei and the scene where Beibe left Kasbah also impressed me very much. I was very touched by the woman's love for Beibei. She gave a lot. Although she finally exposed Beibei's position, maybe she didn't want Beibei and Gaby to leave, but then she regretted it and prayed for the police to release Beibei. Go, I can see that this poor woman is sincere to Beibei, but Beibei doesn't cherish her anymore. There is also the scene of Beibei leaving Kasbah. The scene in front of Babe is constantly changing. From the street scene of Kasbah to the surging sea, it can be seen that Beibei has a vision for the future, and he is eager to leave here. When he returned to Paris, he was excited and happy. I think he knew that this section of the road was dangerous, but when he stepped down the stairs, he chose to accept and face the danger. Although his character is a bandit leader, at the moment he chose to leave, I saw desperateness and a kind of bravery. Maybe it’s not appropriate to use this word to describe a non-positive person, but I can’t find anything else. The word out. I saw that Beibei didn't want to be trapped, he yearned for freedom.

So now think about it, maybe Beibei committed suicide not because he didn't leave with Gaby, or because he was caught by the police, but because he would never return to Paris.
