film as travel

Life with a glass of wine, I watched it yesterday afternoon.
Remember the Santa Ynez Valley in California's wine region.
But I prefer the scene where the four people are drinking on the grass and the sun is setting.

All of a sudden, movies feel like traveling. In the process of watching, there are often a lot of things that you can't understand, and you will have an epiphany after you think about it after watching it, or just occasionally think of certain scenes. So I always understand the meaning of some fragments or dialogues when I reminisce. The same is true of travel. When you go out, you will feel at a loss in this mountain, unless you are fully prepared and know where you are going. And even so, it will inevitably be disturbed by the unfamiliar environment. This is also the reason why I like maps, at least I can see clearly where I am.

Walking itself is unpredictable, and there will always be some unexpected things happening. Even if you meet someone, you will feel that there is no meaning in a different place. It's far away, in short, I finally understand that time is the best medicine, and I finally know that memory can be chosen. It's just that after the constant washing of time, I remember some good things, so some people and things in a certain period of time are more and more perfect in my memory.

    The male lead is great. The faces of thomas haden church and stick girls are really minus points. I would rather end up at the 61-year-old red wine in the fast food restaurant, which is a bit more tragic~ Red wine, beautiful!

    "Blossoming" has the shadow of this film. A self-driving journey for two to a middle-aged man. The chatter around wine is intoxicating, and the death that goes hand in hand makes many people in middle age see themselves. I understand the psychology of the two men, one death is the norm in life, but at the end I wish the girl would open the door.
