Original official account: Watch a movie if your eyes hurt http://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/96uOQY45inrX54MIjk-u0w When you listen to a song, you have an urgent feeling. If you don’t pass it on, will it rot? The most stubborn woman in Brazil, Clara, spends almost every night before going to bed with the burning record player, to drive away the crazy sex parties upstairs, the cigarette butts thrown in the house, the burning mattress in the courtyard, the condemnation of the neighbors , and, any shake of her.

Unlike Olive Kitridge, Clara's stubbornness is vague and tender. She is just immersed in the memories of the past and can't go out again. It can be said that she has become a prisoner of physical and mental freedom. An incomplete "gestalt ring" cannot be subsided, and if one's desire is not satisfied, stagnation will occur. Just like Clara's memory, unable to leave her deceased lover, unable to leave her to spend her toughest and happiest time in this apartment, although there is no way to fill the memory gap, she chooses to use the rest of her life to integrate . The film is slow, patient but provocative, gradually forgetting that this is a struggle between a bourgeois "nail household" and a real estate company. This "one-breasted" beautiful woman is always a surprise. When you are worried that she will collapse, she has successfully escaped in various ways. At the age of 60, she lives in a blue apartment called "Aquarius". In addition to owning a mountain of antique records, she also occasionally dates men she likes; she wears her long hair skillfully and gracefully every day; she will give to her nephew. dating advice - "Show her your passion by playing Maria Bethânia's song". Her exterior never exists apart from her interior, and it is the unassuming high self-esteem that makes her beauty transparent. The first time I came into contact with the works of director Kleber Mendoza Jr., continued my fondness for the unique color of Brazilian films. Although "Aquarius" involves discussions on social issues, it seems to be inadvertently "off topic". It penetrated directly into the "emotionally selfish" audience like me, and the form prevailed over the content at this moment. Clara never gets angry with the indifference of others, but drowns it out with a song. As in Paulinho da Viola's lyrics when confronted with his daughter persuading her to move out of the apartment: There are people with nerves of steel with no blood in their veins and with no heart But sometimes, going through what I go through. This clip sparked my thinking about "smile"

▲ A group of people lay on each other's stomachs, the vibrations "therapeutic" triggering the group's laughter

▲ Peeking at the crazy men and women upstairs, the corners of the mouth rise

▲ Later, at the 70th birthday party of my aunt Lucia, Lucia smiled mixed with memories of her partner. Which is a simple smile? If it's all simple laughter, which laughter is the most honest? What exactly is a smile?

    I'm a little too addicted to the protagonist's portrayal, for fear that the point is not clear enough, of course, the aunt's acting is really good.

    The old lady has even defeated cancer, so I'm still afraid of you unscrupulous real estate developers? The scene of ant for ant is really steel, which is very heartwarming and applauded for Clara.

Aquarius quotes

  • Clara: It's impressive what people say about lack of education, and they always refer to poor people, but lack of manners isn't in poor people, it's in rich, well educated people like you, the elite, who think they are elite, who think they are privileged, who don't stand in line, you know? People like you who took a "business" course, but lack basic human decency, who have no character, you know? No character, no I mean, you do have a character; your character is money, all you've got is your shit-eating smile; that's what you got.

  • Clara: So when you like it, it's vintage; when you don't like it, it's old. Is that right? You guys don't know what it's like to feel crazy without being crazy and that the madness is out there, don't you? Another thing that's really crazy around here is that we're talking about money.
