On a cold rainy night in Tokyo, as the rain washed away the closed glass windows, the boy's melancholy eyes looked at the towering Tokyo Tower in the distance, and asked quietly, "What is the reason for the love between men and women?" ”
The woman put her arm around the boy's waist and explained the boy's confusion, "It is because of the breath that attracts each other." ”
The Japanese love movie "Tokyo Tower" opened the curtain in the questions and answers of the male and female protagonists.
<h1>The "unrequited love" controlled by the claws of lust is beautiful and full of taboos</h1>
The male protagonist is a 20-year-old big boy, and the female protagonist is a 40-year-old married woman poetry history. At the first glance of the meeting with the history of poetry, I felt that the history of poetry had an irresistible charm, and I could find a vitality in her that I did not have, and the history of poetry found the youth and vitality that had been missing for many years in the body of the thorough.
Another pair of unrequited love in the film is 35-year-old Kimiko and 20-year-old Koji. Koji's line to Heimi's first meeting: "The wife is so cute." Koji fell into the charm and innocence of Ximei, who could not resist the temptation of Koji's young flesh.
Love really isn't talked about, it's fallen.
The love between the two couples who fell into unrequited love produced an electric flint-like magnetism at the first meeting, which firmly attracted each other.
What exactly is the electric flint-like magnetism? Is it appearance or personality? It seems that it is not all, perhaps as the history of poetry says, it is the breath of each other that attracts each other!
Interestingly, many male animals in nature release a substance called chlorheracin, which can make female animals love only this one male animal with a dead heart, and have no interest in other males.
People also have animal nature, and Toru often feels that poetry has a kind of animal nature, allowing himself to fall into it and unable to extricate himself. Repeat the music she loves to listen to, read the books she has read, obediently follow her arrangements, meet only once on weekends, try to restrain her impulses, and cooperate with all her actions.
Shishi is more in control of this yearless love, she knows how to restrain lust, and knows how to find a balance between maintaining herself and integrating into society. She understood that her husband could give her wealth and status, and could satisfy her fantasies and memories of youth, and only by balancing and compromising, taking into account both ends, could the relationship between the three be stable and long-lasting.
It is shishi's forbearance and calmness that makes her relationship with Tuo more like a confidant who ignites the fire of life for each other, warm but not burning, and in lust, the component of love overrides desire.
Koji's love affair with Kimiko is obviously controlled by the fire of desire. Their physical desire for each other transcends emotions.
Koji doesn't understand that toru only loves one woman, and he can enjoy it between his girlfriend of the same age and an older young woman. Perhaps in Koji's heart, love does not have such a heavy weight, and desire is a necessity.
There is a reason why Koji likes older women, as he once said to Tuo, not because there is anything special about the body of an older woman, but because the wife is rich, more naïve, and charming, and does not want you to be responsible.
Kimiko is conscientious as a housewife, and her husband treats her only as a decoration, rarely interacts with her, and never cares about the needs of her inner world that desire to be appreciated.
The bright and moving flamenco dance that Kimiko danced, her husband had no intention of watching it, and left the stage halfway through. In contrast, the 20-year-old Koji is more able to understand Kimiko's loneliness and loneliness, and he understands the sadness and indignation hidden in Kimiko's eyes.
Lust is like a raging fire, and there will always be a day when it burns out. The lust comes to an end, and the boredom of each other begins.
Koji and Kimiko are both willful and wanton, allowing the fire of lust to burn each other.
While Cooking, Kimiko calls Koji and begs to see Koji, but Koji can't see her, and she is sad and miserable and can't control herself. In this intense and suffocating love, she lost herself, as if watching the burning fire, dazed and did not know how to extinguish, and finally turned away in panic and helplessness.
Kimiko and Koji eventually end their relationship and return to their status as housewives. Such an ending is a realistic version of the ending of most extramarital affairs.
The underground love that Tuohe Shishi has been hiding for three years always has a time to surface. Shishi was insulted by her mother and was poured with champagne. Tuo was beaten up by Shishi's husband, and Tuoshi came to Shishi with a wound and asked Shishi: "I am not your toy", Shishi replied resolutely: "You go, this toy is broken." ”
Although he was unwilling, he could not withstand the world's difficulties in the end, he buried his love for poetry in his heart, and left Tokyo in despair to study in Paris.
In Japanese pop culture, "unrequited love" is common. For example, a few years ago, the fire Day drama "Day Face" told the unrequited love of housewives. There is a very vivid phrase that describes this unruly love that violates the rules of moral marriage: "There are corpses buried under the cherry blossom trees"—beautiful but full of taboos.
Towa Shishi, Koji, and Kimiko all pay a terrible price for their unrequited love. It is inevitable that people's lives will be hurt, they will bleed, and there will be a lot of pain to carry alone, just as Koji said to Kimiko:
No one was hurt the moment we were born. Even if you are born with some disability or something wrong, or if you are born in a family that lacks warmth, everyone is healthy at the moment of birth and has not been hurt in the slightest. It's rare, right? But after birth, people begin to be hurt non-stop, until death, the wounds will only increase. No matter who it is.
<h1>Get out of the lust dilemma and find a new self</h1>
Perhaps each of us has several different selves living in our bodies.
The self in front of parents, the self in front of friends, and the self in front of people you like are all different. Maybe there's the undiscovered self.
Toru finally found himself completely independent of anyone, and he was quite satisfied that he had found his true self. It is natural, free, and blissful. Moreover, such a self exists entirely because of the history of poetry.
Shi Shi once said that meeting Through made her life no longer boring. When Tuo was with her, she did not really understand what it meant to her life, and Tuo left in despair, and Shi Shi suddenly realized that Tuo was a noble and beautiful elf, and life without Tuo was imperfect.
Once something has been decided, it is necessary to put it into action.
Shishi regains the bravery she never had in her life, she no longer cares about losing money and status, and the love of Each is in Shishi's mind, like the beautiful towering Tokyo Tower, surpassing everything.
When Shishi and Toru kissed again at the Paris Bridge, they bravely confessed to Tuo: "Even if tomorrow you don't love me, I still love you as always."
Ximei, who escaped from the clutches of lust, transformed into a beautiful and powerful dancer on the stage. It is precisely because of the backwater marriage and the unrequited love that is full of exciting contradictions that Kimiko recognizes her heart.
Flamenco can ignite the most secret passion in a woman's soul, and when Kimiko dances, she looks like a beautiful and untamed Carmen.
In the heart of the bohemian Koji, Kimiko fiercely burned a hot mark. The girlfriend asked Koji, "What kind of woman do you like?", and Koji replied: "Innocent and enthusiastic woman".
Kimiko has finally become the woman that Koji misses all her life, and the flower heart man Koji who is in the shape of a wave may have realized the weight of love, and it is not known to say goodbye to the prodigal career from now on!
The Indian philosopher Krishnamurti believes that if you see something beautiful and feel its beauty, if you attach yourself to this beauty and have any thoughts, it becomes a memory, and the nostalgia for this memory in the future will nourish it and become the source of suffering.
Whether it is unrequited love or extramarital affairs, in short, love is love, the scenery has been seen, and no matter how long the train has a terminal station. As Krishna said, it is good to feel the beauty of love.
The beginning of the relationship is a blind game, out of the erotic dilemma, but the end is that everyone finds a new self.
It turns out that useless love has such a great use.
In Tokyo in December, snowflakes fluttered in the sky, and the snowflakes fell very lightly, filling the whole world. The snowflakes flying in the sky are like countless pure white elves, they encourage the strength of the poetry, soothe the sorrow, arouse the freedom of Kimiko, and enlighten Koji's belief in life.
