Do you dare to make your dreams come true?

Teacher Zhou taught us that movies are about realizing dreams for the audience (so to the effect), and "Bread and Tulips" is a dream worth watching for women. When Rosa told Fernando that she had not danced for nine years, I turned my head to look at the teacher who was sitting next to me and said badly, "Ahem, should we reconsider the tango class?"

Middle-aged housewife Luo In the eyes of her husband, Sha has basically become invisible mode. When the family went out to play, she was dropped by the tour group in search of earrings, and the family did not remember to find her to get on the bus, and even later she was scolded by her husband for delaying the trip. So she simply played on her own—going out on vacation alone was something housewives (and career women, of course) aspired to and could do. The flower shop allowed Rosa to find her own value. The friendship with Grazia allowed Rosa to gossip and complain (women!! These are always indispensable), and the care of the restaurant waiter Fernando made Rosa even more so. Like a spring breeze, I regained the accordion when I was a child and the dance that I haven't skipped in nine years.

Normally, if you go out and have fun, you always have to come back to continue the pots and pans or go to 9 to 5, but Rosa no, if it is not for fear of her son taking drugs, she simply doesn't want to go home, and in the end she really doesn't go home. because there is no love and happiness there, and no one cares about her. To live is to know that the world needs your presence, and to live is to care and take care of each other. It's you, do you dare?

Well, let's see why this is not a whim of the housewife, but a respect for the choice of your own heart.

Looking at Rosa's husband, in his eyes, his wife is already a domestic maid who does not need to pay wages. He no longer cares about what she is thinking and needs, and the two no longer have emotional communication. When Rosa left home for Venice, the first reaction of this traditional Italian gentleman (I mean a lover who was not responsible for ironing shirts in addition to his wife) was to wonder if she was unhappy with herself. Zhong, even when the detective found his wife's whereabouts, he didn't want to go there in person (even to catch the adulterer), let alone reflect on what went wrong with himself and his wife. Later, Rosa went home because she was worried about her son. When she saw that the house was not in a mess, but in an orderly manner, the son told her that his father paid someone to do the cleaning; before going to bed, Rosa wanted to say something to him, He replied indifferently, "No, I will pretend that nothing has happened" - don't think this is the husband's tolerance, in fact, he doesn't care what the scumbag wife does.

While her husband's performance was very desperate, the sons also disappointed Rosa, and decided to let her return home from Venice because she was worried about her son's drug use, but when she returned home, she found that the little guy was just smoking marijuana (in her This is not a serious problem by definition), and her son's decision to drop out of school reminded her of her experience of dropping out when she was young.

All kinds of things at home made Rosa completely discouraged, so Fernando's confession of success seemed to come naturally. And Rosa is worth asking Fernando to fight for, remember when she was just boarding at his house, the Icelandic old man tried to get a rope to hang himself several times because of his son, but Rosa always made a mistake interrupted his plans. And then Rosa went through all kinds of things together with him, the notes, the old dance hall, reading poetry, drinking and so on, and the taste of life! It's all half buried, and if you don't do happy things with lovers, what are you waiting for!

Get out of the subtitles, the lights are on, do you dare to make your dreams come true?

The story is over. As an afterthought, I have to record some trivial things. For example, I revisited Venice through a movie. The small square where Rosa and the detective met was very familiar. Then I thought about it and found that it was on the way to the hotel where we stayed; the picture may be because of Italy The reason why the Cultural Office uses CDs is that the color is a lot worse, but it is particularly Italian: the house is dilapidated, a little deserted, the angry husband dances when he talks on the phone, the mother who is especially fond of her son has packed a lot of delicious food and won’t let go , fortunately the soundtrack is particularly good, I want to look for the OST...

In the end, I don't know who translated it into "Dream-chasing Tulips", but it fits my opinion very well, but I still prefer the literal translation into "Bread and Tulips".
