It's a pity that now literary films have to be wrapped in the cover of action films, and action films need to integrate the elements of literary films. So if you pick and choose, you might end up picking the wrong disc. For example, this "The Result of Love" shot by the young Italian director Paolo Sorrentino, was bought as a literary film, and only after watching it did you realize that it was Wong Kar-wai and Johnnie To.
The best part of the film is that I can watch it in two parts, and I don't feel it is not smooth at all. The first time I watch the first half an hour, and the rest of the second time.
The first half hour is the Italian version of Marlboro cigarette advertisement plus "April Story", and the second half is Wong Kar Wai and John To.
I think that my appreciation for super slow films has taken a big leap since I watched "Chiku" three times and ended up sleeping. When I watched this film, I played it to the extreme, and there was already an illusion of time. This film is only 88 minutes long. After watching it, I thought it was a two and a half hour version, so I thought the pace was quite fast.
Going back to the plot, what I want to say is, my God, if it weren't for the unique historical and cultural environment of Italy, the plot would be basically simpler than "April Story". It is said that the director's idea of making the film is that one day in an Italian teahouse, he saw an old man in his fifties smoking a cigarette and staring out the window, and he thought, what else can such an old man think. This young man thought about it and came up with such an old man's story. The title is "The Result of Love".
Like April Story, the girl who was secretly in love was equally beautiful and attracted my attention, so as a non-smoker, I also You can be patient and read the foreshadowing for the first half hour. And he got a jade photo of him from the Internet by unconventional means.
