The first reason is Marquez's original work, the second reason is "No Country for Old Men" starring Javier Bardem, plus the famous Brazilian aunt Fernanda Montenegro in "Central Station". Can you miss it? It's a pity that such a heavyweight subject was finally bought by Hollywood New Line. Can no one shoot in South America or Spanish? ! Although Mike Newell, who has filmed "Four Weddings and One Funeral", is not an ordinary person, but after all, he does not seem to be so Latin.
At the end of the 19th century, Colombian cholera was rampant, and the clear and pure young boy Aliza fell in love with the same clear girl Fermina. After more than half a century of high-fever love, Aliza was in his twilight years. Finally got what you wanted. Javier Bardem's melancholy, simple and heart-wrenching performance shocked me! The architecture written by the master is majestic and majestic spanning more than 50 years. The young Ariza has always been unswerving in the love of his heart through youth, middle age and old age. This unforgettable love is extremely pure and extremely clear! Great!
It is not easy to make such a landmark work in the history of literature. After all, novels and movies are two different carriers, and the amount of information covered and transmitted cannot be compared, but they each have their own advantages. The important thing is whether it brings enough real heart impact and great shock to the readers or viewers. This film does it.
By the way, the picture of the film is poignant and moving, and the theme song is clear and lofty and has a long aftertaste.
