It is undoubtedly a sad literary film. At first, I was only attracted by the synopsis. I thought it would be a drama like "Blue Bridge". My curiosity prompted me to know what the heroine of this film would do. Choose how it ends. The director narrates in a very literary and artistic way with the background music that comes slowly, rendering the sentimental atmosphere revealed by the whole film to the extreme. From the very beginning of the film, I knew it would be a tragedy. When the heroine Hester could not bear the emptiness and loneliness of life in the upper class, and met the passionate and romantic retired soldier Freddie, it was only natural to be attracted by his bravery and enthusiasm. I believe that any woman in her situation (with culture and Taste, independent thinking ability, husband introverted and restrained and boring) will be attracted by such a hot-blooded young man who is almost the opposite of her husband's personality. This is human nature. She is tired of the established stable and beautiful life. What's missing in a stable life, passion and love. But what is the latter?
From the moment she made the decision to go after Freddie, I knew it was going to be a tragedy. Not to mention all kinds of economic and material life, from their attitudes towards works of art, life, and love itself when they go to the museum, the differences between them create a strong attraction between them, but they destroy the two. A deadly straw in human relationships. Hester is undoubtedly the embodiment of idealism. For what she thinks is love, she can beg as low as dust and even attempted suicide several times, because Freddie did not meet the standard of love in her ideal. A very vivid explanation when Freddie is angry, "Jack loves Jill, Jill loves Jack. But Jack doesn't love Jill in the same way. Jack never asked to be loved." The implication is that Ji asked to be loved. Said, Hester would long for and demand that Freddie always love himself forever and ever, hold himself in the palm of his hand and put himself in his heart. So, when Freddie forgets Hester's birthday, Hester will interpret each other's forgetting as lack of love, despair, and even write a suicide note, saying "Freddie, this is not your fault." What a great irony, if love It's total possession of body, mind and body, it's "I can't live without you", all I can say is the passion Hester was looking for, she couldn't find it, not in her husband Williams, not in Freddie, not any. One can satisfy her desires. Maybe the landlady downstairs, that rustic, "A lot of rubbish is talked about love. You know what real love is? It's wiping someone's arse or changing the sheets when they've wet themselves. And letting them keep their dignity so you can both go on.
Back in real life, each of us has our own ideas and requirements for our partners in life, but unlike the movie, I think we need to find a balance in life to balance the difference between "self and others", and Relationships with others, including partners, children, parents, friends. Everyone is a unique individual, which is doomed that there are too many differences between you and me, such as personality, family background, cultural upbringing, social status, etc. As a social person, you can clearly define "self and others", and can Having a sense of independence while respecting others to the greatest extent, within the family/society, building a "value benchmark" will greatly help maintain relationships with each other and have a basic "reasonable line" when dealing with specific problems and disputes , which may be the basis for maintaining the harmony of a family or even a society as a whole.
