I watched this movie on my way back to China. I watched three movies during this trip, and they were all very touched!
A woman who has suffered from syphilis since a young age, has an unparalleled love for music, but is also deaf and has to express herself on the stage, dreaming of becoming a coloratura soprano in the world's attention. She is very rich, probably this is the premise of realizing the dream of self in the world, even if this dream is beyond the normal of human beings.
If you have money, let her set up a private club and invite people to listen to her sing; if you have money, you can make her a celebrity in the music industry, and you can get both sides and become the focus; if you have money, she can build a theater and hold a concert at Carnegie Hall; With money, she can hire the most talented young pianist to accompany her, and she can ask the most famous musician to guide her to sing... With money, dreams, and the courage and courage to realize dreams despite the world Enthusiasm, what a perfect fairy tale world! But this is the real story, which happened at the beginning of the last century.
There are two things that move people's hearts in the story, her "infatuation" for music and her husband's "love and tolerance" for her. Both of these are based on a person's inner truth and the innocence of love.
She is rich, but she spends her whole life for music, and finally for the most important performance of her life. Under the cruelty of facts, after her dream is exposed, her life loses its meaning. She is so naive, and she still has childish fantasies in her seventies, so she looks so cute that people have to cry at the end of the movie. Aunt Mei's performance is even more vivid, reaching the point of perfection.
The thing that moved me the most in the movie was her husband. This man, so that the woman he loves can always live in the dream, spares no effort to weave the flower-like reality for her in real life for 20 years. He was meticulous about everything, and used all possible means to block the cruelty of reality to protect her dreams from being exposed. They have never had an actual sex life, but they are worthy of their conjugal status and responsibilities. Born as a man, he also has physical needs and a lover, but for her, he will give up everything he has. He was always there for her when she needed it.
A seemingly unsurprising story, but with the warmth of human nature. I love stories and harvests like this. In this story, it seems to give people a whole new understanding: whether it is art or love, it doesn't matter the form and the fixed definition of people, as long as honesty and heart are there, everything is beautiful!
