Foreign taboo love movies have been filmed a lot, most of the scale is very explosive, but in these works, few can make people think that it is beautiful and moving love, after all, the three words "forbidden love" have shown that such love, love is not accepted by the public, it is an emotion contrary to morality and ethics.
But it's not that the feelings that appear in all these films are unbearable, and there are some that can transcend the world, love is heartbreaking, even if the ending is always unsatisfactory, even if tragedies keep happening, but love is enough.
For example, the classic forbidden love movie I want to talk about today, the forbidden love in it is very attractive, but I think the reason why this film is attractive is not only the forbidden love theme, in addition to the bold interpretation of the picture plot, in addition to the love and revenge to death, there is also the biggest reason, that is, the heroine, Vanessa Paradis, who was only 17 years old at the time, is really beautiful.
There are several versions of this movie, and here, naturally, the most classic French version of "White Wedding" is the most classic.

When he reached middle age, François, who was nearly half a hundred years old, never dreamed that he himself would have such crazy actions and behaviors, and that the ethics and morality he had abided by for half his life would be abandoned by himself, and he would become a "bad person".
François was a philosophy teacher, he taught in school, he was highly respected, he and his wife were close to each other, although living in a small town, although life was decent, but actually much happier than many people.
However, with the appearance of one of his students, 17-year-old girl Matil, his life changed drastically. Unlike the other students, Matil is more mature and uninhibited than the average teenager, and her warm, intelligent, and even rebellious personality is so different from the crowd. This may be what others call a bad boy, so when he became her teacher, François approached her, cared for her, and educated her at first with the feeling of being a teacher and saving a fallen girl.
Facts have proved that a person in an environment or step-by-step, repeated every day boring life, when a different thing or person appears, he will be attracted by this fresh feeling, he can't help but change his inner thoughts.
This is the case with François, in the past day-to-day, mechanical life, when Matil appeared, her youthful enthusiasm and clever intelligence deeply attracted François.
François's maturity and thoughtfulness, and the charm of a sense of security also made Mattier crazy obsessed.
At first, François still had reservations, he was still a little afraid, but when faced with Mathil's enthusiasm, he couldn't help himself, and the two fell in love, and the love was full of passion and more memorable.
Any forbidden love may have no other requirements except love at the beginning, but over time, as soon as the relationship is cultivated, the emotional needs after desire will slowly appear, and Matil is no exception, she loves this teacher, so she also wants to live with François all the time, so when she asks François to leave his wife and choose to be with her upright, it is clear that François, like all men, when it comes to this issue, he withdraws.
The first thing he thought of was the age difference between the two, of course, the most important thing was that he was a married person, morality did not allow him to do that, and his current status, if he really chose to be with Matil, he would have nothing, after thinking of so many things, how could he still agree, so his withdrawal, of course, was not surprising. But he didn't expect that a frank and unruly girl would do anything after he retreated.
Without the person I love, Matil did not wait for it all her life, but chose the way a girl her age would use, fierce and cruel, she used all means to destroy the teacher's life, not hesitate to subvert his career, and of course marriage, after doing all this, she did not choose to stalk François again, but after taking revenge, disappeared without a trace.
When people found Matil again, she was no longer a flower-like maiden, and people saw in her room the last words she wrote there, which were last words, which were summed up this love of hers: "François, this is the sea." ”
François was all her love, her sea star, but that sea could not hold her. Her love, in fact, is as pure as the moonlight reflected in the sea, but it is not human.
One memorable scene in the film is when she almost pleadingly says to François: "You can move to another city." I pretend to be your daughter. Or I hide and I can stay at home. So that no one will see me. I let go of my pride and just want to stay with you forever. ”
For love, she can hide, he is the sea, she is willing to sink silently to the bottom of the sea!
So is François a "scumbag"? The film says he's not all. He may have considered honorary status, but there are other things at the same time, in fact, he has thought about giving up those things and really taking Matil away, but this is unfair to marriage and to his wife, at least he thinks so. (But in his in-depth conversation with Matil, did he think about the consequences?) ）
Once again, he told Matil that he was a man who was about to enter old age, and Matil was still a flower-like age, which was not fair to her, and that she had a long time to go after the rest of her life, and he could not have been with her for that long. (But did he think about this when he kissed Mathil?) ）
Regardless of whether the film is suspected of whitewashing François, the fall of a beautiful, refreshing flower, the culprit is him, he knows that it is not feasible, but he still can't resist her love.
The love between them is so beautiful and cruel for Matier, since François cannot accompany her to grow old, then she chooses to never grow old again, is this sad? The audience may see this, but for Matil, after sweet revenge, she becomes a part of this love, staying in love forever.
Why is the movie called "White Wedding"? Perhaps only by reading carefully can you understand the meaning!
The film has a lot of tearful plots and many philosophical lines, this is an excellent classic work!
