Use the stereo on the car to listen to the Chinese teaching tape. Her mother said to her, can't you do something normal? "No one is normal. Everyone is not," said
Ann, who learned at the age of 23 that she was terminally ill and had at most two or three months to live. She has two lovely daughters, a 4 year old and a 7 year old. She met their dad at Nirvana's farewell concert when she was 17. They're still in love, living in her mom's RV(?) in her mother's backyard. In the last days of An's life, death never seemed heavy or frivolous. She made a list of things to do before she died. First, never let anyone else know that she is leaving. Then she has some arrangements or small wishes, which are both steady and gentle as a mother, and crazy and naughty as a 23-year-old girl.
When I first saw the beginning of the film, I thought to myself, Come on, another film that reflects the miserable life of the lower class people. I worked as a cleaning lady in college and had two girls at a young age. My father was in prison for ten years, and my husband was unemployed all the year round. When I started to get impatient, An in the film who returned from work late went into bed, The husband who slept inside was woken up by her icy body, joking and rubbing her feet. The two ended their usual day frolicking.
In one fell swoop, my prejudice against the film completely dissipated. It's not stereotyped - it's not bleak, and it's not trying to make you foolish. It's fragmented, normal and abnormal, like real life.
My life without me, not like the Chinese translation, is "the days without me". It refers to the fact that when the heroine Ann passed away, people around her lived as normal (or improved). This is due to Ann's arrangements before his death. When she was dying, Ann looked through the gauze curtain to see another Ann busy with her family, like a real family, very gratified. If the film here is trying to tell us anything, it's definitely not about An Sheng's big heart or anything like that. It just quietly shows the beauty of life as usual. A life has faded out of the world, and the river of life that flows is endless. Ann made the transition smoother so that her passing was a happy one. Everyone in her life smiles at this.
The smart, beautiful and thin Ann, the normal Ann, the abnormal Ann, the Ann who has not lived enough but walked calmly, the virtuous wife and good mother, the lover, and the children. I like Ann. I think I learned something from her.
Suddenly I felt that the better the movie, the harder it would be for me to draw any major conclusions from it. Because it is complicated and trivial. If I had to rate it, "Dancer in the Darkness" would definitely not be as high as "Days Without Me". Because I can conclude something from the former. The latter is difficult for me to express.
