love and wall

Gaspard passed away today. When I heard the news, my heart tightened. I love a lot of the movies he's been in and love his semi-shaded face.

On a rainy night, alone, I flipped out the movie and watched it again.

The title is very distressing. For Louis, compared with the complicated feelings of his family, the end of his world is nothing but the same.

He loved his family so much that in his final days, he wanted to come back and tell them about himself and say goodbye. But they have a gap that cannot be understood and communicated, or it was his sexual orientation at first, and then extended to character and life experience. The 12-year separation made Louis and his family walk into two different lives, those two lives. , is invisible to each other, maybe, his life is incomprehensible to his family, so there is a wall between him and his family.

This wall was mainly cast by his family, this kind of strangeness and incomprehension, this kind of emotion that can bury observation. It is shown very violently in the movie, blocking Louis's words again and again, and he is so restrained that he has no chance to say it at all.

Every family member is buried in their own affairs and emotions. They only see themselves in the eyes of Louis, but not the living Louis. Maybe this is also a kind of love, because of love, they care too much about the image in each other's eyes.

And Louis finally decided not to say it, because it was not necessary, because their world did not need him, and he did not want to disturb the world. Therefore, he chose to leave quietly.

With the last love of the family, quietly leave this world.

Every time I see Louis hesitating to speak, I feel very depressed. The family lives in their own world, and no one will think about it from his standpoint. But in fact, many families are like this in reality, ignoring that a person will change and grow, thinking that he is him, just like I knew before. But that doesn't stop me from loving you.

As her mother said in the movie: I don't understand you, but I love you.

May all the love in the world be conveyed to each other's hearts smoothly, and there are no walls in the world.

May my beloved Gaspard be well in heaven. . .

    The zoom is so close one by one, and I am not afraid of the machine hitting the actor's head

    Not as bad as the wind reviews. The Dolan-style sound and picture counterpoint is still pleasing, and the stage-like family drama is also full of details. Dolan is a very humble young man and still has expectations of him.
