is a very quiet film, the picture is soft and poetic
, and the male protagonist's intermittent voice-over, slowly sad, sounds very comfortable
This is the initial impression. However, half an hour later, the feeling is still fragmented, and the voiceover that doesn't make sense seems a little chatter. It's just an ordinary story: he bid farewell to his newlywed wife and traveled long distances to buy silkworm eggs in Japan. When he met an oriental woman, he was silently concerned with just one look, and he came to a remote village again and again despite the difficulties and dangers. . .
It is even a bit cliché, the depiction of oriental women in Western films is always inseparable from a mystery, implying some kind of temptation.
I continued to watch patiently, wondering if he would abandon Helen and find the mysterious woman he was thinking of.
This time it was my turn to be vulgar.
In an instant, Helen died, and when the climax was the curtain call, everything was slowly solved like a mystery. It turned out that the warm letter did not come from her who was thousands of miles away, but she was by her side day and night. This man who has always been unwilling to live a peaceful life, sitting in a garden with lilies in full bloom, what kind of guilt should he have.
Helen, who was in heaven at the end of the film, read out the richness of his heart with a slightly hoarse voice. Yes, as smart as she is, what is there to not know.
. . .
We have all thought of a legendary love, always thinking that love can only be realized in a legendary journey.
But perhaps the richest is in the most mundane. maybe
it is said that silk and sea pianist come from the same writer. This writer, whose name I don't know, is probably obsessed with this elusive, floating feeling. The sea to 1900, and Helen to Alvey, are the end of their emotions, and will the beauty in their hearts that they never get will be slowly annihilated with time?
After watching the movie, the sound of the city iron roaring past the window was gone, and the night was very deep.
