When it comes to love, we can find a lot of beautiful words, but when it comes to the results of love, I am afraid it is just a sigh.
No love ends suddenly, and the fall apart of love is often brought together by trivial details. In fashionable terms, the three views are different.
After experiencing a lot of love and hate and right and wrong, most people choose to be alone, not not to love, but afraid of loneliness after the end of love.
"Twelve Nights" is such a lonely story.
By chance, the flight attendant Jeannie and the engineer Alan met, and for a moment the lightning stone fire began to immerse themselves in the excitement of love.
When passion becomes a footnote to love, then, after the passion recedes, all that remains is the empty skin of love. After a period of hot love, Jeannie and Alan have more and more conflicts, just like all men and women in love, troubled by worldly trivialities.
As a result, love was lost to the chicken feathers.
This seems to be the end of most love, so after watching this movie, many people have pessimistic feelings, "This is the truest way love is." ”
However, he was not willing to be alone. Bidding farewell to a relationship, you will still fantasize about your crush, one day you will step on the colorful clouds to marry yourself, and suddenly, everything is relieved.
This may be human nature.
On the one hand, I am afraid of the loneliness after the bustle, and on the other hand, I am eager for the bustle.
Director Lin Aihua accurately grasped the subtle changes in the emotions of men and women, captured the details of love with the camera, merged them into a burning fire, and then slowly extinguished the fire, leaving a pile of embers.
The "twelve", ups and downs of a relationship.
It may seem an exaggeration to describe a love affair with "Twelve Nights," but in this fast-paced society, love itself is a fast-food product because it's so easy to get it and breakups are extraordinarily easy.
I've seen love at first sight followed by a lifetime, and I've seen it fall apart in an instant. It is difficult to say that this is not love, and that things between men and women are inherently unreasonable.
"Twelve" carries a bit of a sense of fatalism, just a reincarnation, symbolizing the "fate" of love.
In the movie "Twelve Nights", "Twelve" is just the end of one love, and it is also the beginning of another love.
Hong Kong's cramped space and economic pressures have shortened the time to experience love, while also amplifying the problems that men and women have when they fall in love. Lin Aihua uses "Twelve Nights" to tell the story of love from the beginning to the end, and while discussing the relationship between the sexes, she also makes an understatement of Hong Kong society.
Love, to put it bluntly, is a problem of men and women getting along, from this point of view, "Twelve Nights", it is more like a modern urban love fable, from this "twelve nights" to the next "twelve nights", reincarnation is eternal loneliness.
Love is always a topic that resonates easily.
Love is the eternal topic of the movie, it is even older than the movie, even more complicated than the movie, which is the charm of love.
There are two kinds of love stories, one is utopian love and the other is realistic love.
Utopian love is indeed desirable, because in this world, there is nothing but "love".
And realist love, except "love", has everything.
This may be too extreme, but it is not an exaggeration if placed in the whole real life.
Seeking advantage and avoiding harm is human instinct, even if you are temporarily carried away by love, after waking up from the dream, you will still see if the soil under your feet can open bright roses.
The ending of Twelve Nights is interesting, with the flight attendant Jeannie introspecting herself and the engineer Alan asleep.
This is probably the core of the contradiction between men and women.
Lin Aihua tried to dissect society with love.
The form of love and the development of society are always closely related, and Mu Xin once wrote a poem, "Once Upon a Time Slow":
The old days became very slow / Cars, horses, mail were slow / Only enough to love one person in a lifetime
Such slow times are always nostalgic, and it takes a long time to write a love letter to reach the hands of a lover. With the anxiety of waiting and the excitement of expectation, the love is carefully maintained.
And now, a text message, a phone call, an email can start a love affair or end a love affair, everything is too fast, fast and a little absurd, a little bizarre. Before you can even be sad, you have already started a new relationship.
Although "Twelve Nights" is a love story, the loneliness in it is particularly thick, and this lively Hong Kong has formed a strong contrast, under the prosperity, there are lonely men and women, which seems to be a cruel irony.
In the dazzling night of Hong Kong, the passion gradually fades, and the whole city is calm and restrained, waiting for the end and waiting for the beginning.
I often think, everything is so easy to get now, why don't people want to put some thought into love?
Some would say that there is a fear of being hurt.
I think it's probably not because of the fear of hurt, but because of the fear of loneliness after the hilarity.
Man is a social animal, and if he does not need lovers, he needs someone else. As long as you get along with people, there is bound to be a possibility of being hurt, and love is even more so.
However, the most terrible thing about love is not the hurt, but the loneliness and loneliness of the empty place after a desperate love fight, which is the most difficult to face.
Loneliness is different from loneliness, loneliness is the emptiness from the body to the soul, loneliness is just the wandering of the soul.
Eating men and women is always unavoidable, but it does not matter, if every embrace can eliminate loneliness, although it is only for a moment, it is actually worth it.
Maybe you don't need "Twelve Nights", some love, you can see ten thousand years at a glance.
