"en la ciudad de sylvia", translated from Taiwan as "In Search of Sylvia", Hong Kong is still very vulgar and culturally translated as "Looking for Her Thousand Hundred Degrees", or a good mainland translation: "In the City of Sylvia", like the sentence in the Bible, "David is buried in the city of David", the beauty is simple and extreme, the afterglow is long, and inevitably reminds people of the poem that Zheng Shuyu gave.
Sylvia is simple within simple, the whole movie, the lines are less than ten minutes, the male and female protagonists are extremely elegant and beautiful kind of actors, the film is shot in a beautiful small town strasbourg.
Sylvia was symbolized.
She represents the director's attitude towards love, and can also be said to be the confusion of most people in modern times about love. Finally, he found what he thought was "Sylvia" in the sea of people, but the man was only a beautiful mistake in a chance encounter. But the film also takes us on a relentless search for "Sylvia", and also shows that there are still some people who are determined to find love.
The "laure, je t'aime" that appears several times on the yellow wall and the old man standing under the word may be telling us that love is like Tuya on the wall, it is improvised, and it can be maintained for a long time without erasing it, but it is actually like carving a boat and asking for a sword
The seemingly meaningless street corner at the end is the same street corner on the side of the bar. It can be seen that the director chose to let the beauty eventually break, telling us that we can escape loneliness by falling into the world.
A man often thinks of that city as him
You think you love that person, but you're just indulging in the feeling of loving him.
A film as pure as water is like a simple and elegant love letter.
