I haven't seen the heroine, and the actor's accent is difficult to understand, but this film still makes me feel infinitely cordial.
Because there is also a major protagonist who is not in the cast, Ireland.
Even if I have never been to England, France, or Italy, I am convinced that everyone can say a few words because they are so famous. In contrast, Ireland is like a blind spot, especially since the Chinese in Ireland in the past few years have been attacked continuously, making people unintentional to learn more about the country.
But I yearned for her infinitely, for a long time that can be traced back to the last century, even before I knew who Zidane was.
If you know Scarlett O'Hara, you can guess how I fell in love with her.
Almost half of the story of Scarlett, the sequel to Gone with the Wind, takes place in Mr. O’Hara’s hometown, Ireland. The description of Ireland in this book is so vivid and accurate that one day after I haven’t read this book for four or five years, when I saw "PS I love you", I suddenly knew men and women in tears. Where did the protagonists meet? So probably many people don’t understand. When I saw Declan and his creditor spit on the palms of their palms and give them high-five hands in "Leap Year", the excitement was like an old friend reunion: Hey, so you are here!
The whole of the British Isles gave me a feeling of being far from the world and independent, there was a kind of desolation and heroism of exile. Before Xiaowu has become today's Xiaowu, he once appeared in a movie, the heroine is Chen Huilin, and the story is set in Scotland. I can only remember the plot of the movie now, but the sense of remoteness has always been impressive.
Compared to Scotland, Ireland is milder in my impression. Either because this country loves green, or because of the passionate red hair, and more importantly, that is where Tella is.
Tara, home. In the most difficult era of schoolwork, I took out this book from the cabinet in the middle of the night countless times and re-read the chapters I liked. I didn't cry at that time. I didn't cry once for more than half a year, except when I saw Scarlett spilling Irish soil on my father's tomb, I couldn't help myself every time.
If I have to go to Ireland someday, I will greet myself in my youth: Hey honey, I'm on the tower.
Perhaps the greatest significance of this movie to me is that it allows me to confirm what I believe and what I seek.
So, it deserves my four stars.
