you really understand what's going on right now?
The people who met, the things that happened. Can you explain why?
I can not.
To me, explaining everything in the present seems like a blunt vision of the future.
Happened, happened, and waited.
Go with the flow in the long river of fate.
Finally one day, I forgot what love is.
When did we, the young
girls, die?
When everything is shining bright and white, and all the deceptions are covered with a kind of goodness, when will the world die?
When watching the movie "An Education", what I watched was not the plot, but the "world in the eyes of a girl" carefully arranged by the director. ——Pull the camera down slightly to the height of an adult's neck, parallel to the girl's eyes, looking up at this flowery world and the man's blue and sincere eyes.
——Everything is deliberately painted with white and dazzling light: the rainy day in England, the plaid tablecloth, the hot black tea with milk, the cigarettes in the air, the notes of the cello, and the mature and elegant man I met in the rain. man.
Encountering with him, in the suffocating life of a girl, a luxurious and colorful explosion exploded. The exquisite performances of the classical concert hall, the delicate and smooth fur shawls, the famous paintings bought at a high price, the psychedelic lights of the nightclubs, and the exquisite dishes, their figures are lingering in the streets of Oxford and Paris.
The scale of time lost its meaning, and
every second of the heartbeat felt like forever.
2.
It's just that I seem to hear the author muttering in my ear: "Is all that at that time really love?"
The author wrote that he was very smart and adventurous when he was a child, thinking that he would fulfill his parents' wish and go to Oxford. To go to Paris, to enjoy art, to party all night. So everything is whitewashed like a girl, longing for love, longing for adventure, longing for unknown results.
Is it really so?
Will there be such a voice in the author's heart, asking himself:
"Why would I fall in love with a person I despise?"
That man's luxurious life is based on "stealing". From elderly people who live alone, buy their heirloom art at a low price, and steal it if they can't buy it. Find an old man with black phobia, let black people be their neighbors, and buy real estate at a low price from these old people who are in dire need of moving. When she learned all this, the girl was angry, shocked, and left. But why, in the end, she stayed and raised a glass with them to bless this luxurious and bright day?
She can read the profound works of her ancestors and write brilliant papers, she can tell witty jokes in French, she can shed tears for profound classical music, and she can be admitted to Oxford, the top institution of human beings , decades later, became a well-known journalist.
But she still doesn't understand her 16-year-old self.
The love of that 16-year-old girl.
It is the most complex and profound mystery in the world.
The girl in the ginseng
died, what happened after that?
What does the world look like in a woman's eyes?
Halfway through the film, I said, "When she finds out that this is an emotional liar, the director's use will change." A
certain K was a little suspicious and didn't understand why.
Sure enough, the man timidly stepped on the accelerator and escaped from the girl and her family. The director shot "Light leaves her world". A young girl sitting silently in a dark room, the taillights of the car swept across her face through the window.
The light left,
leaving only darkness.
The picture was so dark that it was impossible to see whether her face was stunned, or tears.
After that, the base color of the film changed, and the over-lighting was no longer used to create an outright white. But a world full of shadows. A friend who used to be neatly dressed and wore a tuxedo would also appear in the picture with only one pajamas and messy hair, saying, "Why should I tell you that he already has a wife and daughter? When you knew he was a thief, you didn't compromise. Is it?"
The whole world seemed to have been stripped of its mask, and the proud father would crouch at the door, saying, "I let you go to Oxford, I just hope that you will not be discriminated against in your life and live like me. "
It's just that no matter what happens,
even if our door is closed,
there will be a small cake from my parents in front of the door.
This
is a transformation from a girl to a woman,
an exchange of the whole world from light to shadow, and a woman's coming-
of-age ceremony.
The one who watched everything silently was the girl's teacher.
Just like the resonance of the same kind, I know they are the same kind - the girl is the "past" of the teacher, and the teacher is the "future" of the girl.
From the moment that man appeared in the girl's life, she instantly knew everything that was about to happen in the future.
Because this is not a prophecy, but a memory.
I silently looked at the character "teacher", who perched in the most inconspicuous corner of the film. She is just a "bystander" to the girl's life.
She applauds the girl's talents, spurs her mistakes, warns her of the impending danger, and sighs for her mistakes. But she just watched silently, never intervening.
She watched the girl's life and lived her own life. No matter how old-fashioned others thought she was, she never defended herself. Decorate a colorful, warm and beautiful home. There are famous paintings of the painters I like and the famous books I am reading side by side. Maybe, some late night, under the quiet moonlight, she will taste the distant past in her memory, those stories belonging to young girls.
This is a woman's coming-of-age ceremony.
Because it is through love that a woman knows her destiny.
From this relationship, the girl really recognized herself and the world. I also understand what kind of life I really want to live. She saw clearly how a cruel world it was, and the transformation from a girl to a woman left her exhausted and almost dead. So she would say. "I feel like I'm getting old." The
teacher's last sentence in the movie is "I've been waiting for you. I've always been ready to help you." It
warms my heart.
Digression:
Sometimes, I instantly recognize whether she is a girl, or a woman.
The light and shadow in her eyes could not deceive anyone.
It's just that I occasionally see at the same time that the smiling person beside her is a liar.
"She must be hurt..." I thought.
Kind of bothered. . tell her? Don't tell her.
After all, it was her own destiny, her own coming-of-age ceremony.
