<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" >01 Vika and Maffei: True love stands the test</h1>
The beauty of first love for us lies in the warm encounter and the heartbeat of a moment.
Like adolescent girls, Vika is rebellious and wants to get the attention of the opposite sex who cares, she and her friends will slow down when they pass by the boys, in order to listen to what the boys are discussing, when they hear that there is a dance, they are obviously very much looking forward to being invited, but still pretend to be calm, pretending to inadvertently let the boys catch up and invite them.
At the dance, Vika meets Maffei, they dance passionately, the spirits blend, Maffei put headphones on Vika's head, the headphones play romantic love music, Vika's heart is moved.
She thinks she likes Muffy, happy or sad every time because of one of his actions, and she can't wait to grow up, to start a family with Muffy, to live forever.
Isn't this the true portrayal of our lives? When you are just in love, you can't wait to be together forever, and once the time is long, all kinds of problems are revealed, and this process is the test of each other's love.
Her friend tells Vika that she saw Maffei dating another girl, and Vika is upset, and she feels angry when she wants to believe Maffei.
While on vacation, her great-grandmother took her to Where Marphee was, and she told Her that she had snuggled up to each other in a small rented apartment because he had run away from home, and at that moment, Vika didn't care about anything, as long as she could shrink into Muffy's arms.
But it was three o'clock in the morning, and Muffy told Vika to stay here on her own, that he would have to go home and have work to do the next day. Vika was very upset, she came to see him alone, but he put himself in such a place without mercy, and the contradictions between the two escalated.
Later, Vika was still very attached to Maffei, and at that time she may not have noticed that this was not like, but that she unilaterally thought and was unwilling.
On her birthday, she invited Maffi to the birthday dance, the two danced together as before, kissed together, and suddenly a boy was late, he looked at Maffei, And Maffei looked at him, naturally put his hand on it, the lights kept flashing, like Vika's beating heart, she was moved.
The love of her youth is more often a heartbeat, a touch, a persistence, just like Vika, she thinks she loves Maffei, but later she will also be moved for others.
Like her maternal great-grandmother said, true love can stand the test, mutual respect and love, mutual trust, not her and Muffy's fragile relationship.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >02 Vika Parents: Adult love is more of a responsibility. </h1>
Vika's father was a dentist and her mother was a cartoonist. His father had Xiao San, and while loving his wife, he was immersed in the pleasure that Xiao San brought him.
In order to spend the night with Xiao San, he gave up his father-in-law's birthday, lied that he had broken his leg, and let the people around him play with him to cheat on his wife.
A lie must be rounded by countless lies.
Watching his wife rent equipment for him so that he could live a more relaxed life, he woke up, told his wife the whole thing, and longed to get her forgiveness.
Although the wife loves her husband very much in her heart, she can't accept this matter, so she smashes Xiao San's cosmetics store and proposes to separate.
When the two told Vika the news of the separation, the husband wanted to tell his daughter the truth, but was blocked by his wife, she did not want to affect her daughter because of this matter, so she said that because she loved her husband too much, the two decided to keep some distance.
Later, the wife became pregnant, pregnant with her second child, two months later, the husband misunderstood the wife, said something ugly, the wife left the scene in anger, and spent the night with The German teacher in Vika.
His great-grandmother told Vika's father that the child was a key way for him to save his wife.
The story of an adult is heavier, obviously loving each other, but not holding back the temptation, for the sake of the daughter and can not go to divorce.
Their love, there is love, but more is a responsibility to the family.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >03 Great-grandmother: What matters is the present</h1>
In this movie, the great-grandmother is a highlight, she is in her eighties, on the surface of a crazy life, but in fact more transparent than anyone.
She encourages the 13-year-old Vika to bravely face the desires in her heart, tells her that it is important to live in the moment, tells her that women should have self-respect and self-love, do not easily send themselves out, and teach her that true love can stand the test...
She did not see Vika as a child, but as a friend to point out the direction for her, and for her great-grandmother herself, she valued the present.
She will play music happily, she will secretly take pictures of Maffei for Vika, she will immediately decide to take Vika to see Maffei, she will stay up all night waiting for Vika to return, she will like to gamble and play cards, she is like a child, but she is a wise man.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > concluding remarks</h1>
Some people say that the boy who appears in the last film is inexplicable, and in my opinion, the last boy is exactly what the director wants to tell us through the film.
Vika's love for Marphee is not the only one, it is not love, it is the first heartbeat obsession, and when the boy finally appears, she is relieved, let go of Maffei, and starts the same process with another heartbeat boy as she did for Maffei.
The first kiss is not just the first kiss, as long as it is the person who is impressed, the first kiss with him can be regarded as the first kiss, the first kiss does not only represent the first time, it is also given more meaning according to the object of the target.
This film has a very strong French romantic color, and at the same time tells us a different view of love.
