Unsettled desire in the monsoon

The wedding banquet in the monsoon, mixed with all kinds of hidden desires, was held as scheduled in the pouring rain.
The bride and groom wore garlands, received the blessings of the crowd, and sang and danced. Not so long ago, the bride was mired in an incestuous affair with a married man. She told the groom all honestly. Looking at her back as she turned away, the groom chased after her and said that he was willing to accept the past and manage the future life with her.
In fact, everyone who enters into a marriage must have the consciousness of accepting the imperfection of the other party! After all, who doesn't have some so-called past? We always say that we should look forward, so why not comfort our inner unwillingness, compromise, and rush to the unknown.
The uncle finally stood up, he wanted to protect the niece who had been hurt. Lil doesn't lie. For this reason, he refused to attend the final wedding banquet with his handsome uncle as an entrepreneur. Taking pictures together is already extra tolerance. Of course, this also means that they will not communicate with each other in the future, but that is the price that my uncle should bear.
Thinking of the Danish movie "After the Wedding", it was at the wedding banquet that was supposed to be blessed and celebrated by everyone. The daughter who was about to marry learned that her biological father was someone else, which set off an emotional storm.
What about the pre-monsoon wedding reception? It's not that there are too many unspeakable secrets looming in a festive atmosphere that looks like a singing and dancing carnival.
The color combination of the title: orange red, charm blue and bright red. Segmentation, squares and ellipses appear alternately, coupled with manic Indian national tunes, in addition to being visually dazzling, it gives people an irreconcilable manic-depression and anxiety.
I don't know why I won the Venice Golden Lion Award. Compared with the gentle and forbearing narration of Ang Lee's "The Wedding Banquet", I always feel that it is blunt, less interesting, and the plot is loosely arranged, so I can't figure it out. Maybe cultural differences are at fault! However, if the story is told well, it shouldn't be a problem.

    7.11@Film Commune Creek Screening, 2001 Venice Golden Lion, 4-. The charm lies in the integration of singing and dancing into the scenes of life, and the narrative lines of several pairs of lovers are interspersed with simplicity and convincing. Ethnic, cultural, intergenerational and even class conflicts are blurred, and the occasional New Delhi street scene is more like a reminder of the shooting location. Yes, from the perspective of middle-class returnees, it is also a kind of India.

    7 points, a wedding, but there are more than one pair of happy new people. The film not only integrates the local marriage culture, but also combines the differences of different identities and backgrounds, and finally shows it in a popular and straightforward way. It can be regarded as a relatively standard Indian family movie.
