The audience for a movie like "Love Letters" is particularly interesting.
There are fans on the Internet who have watched the movie, and the feedback they gave after they went back was very interesting.
"You love me, I love him, he loves him, he loves her...
Hey~ Why is there no one in love in this world anymore?
Why is everyone in this world unhappy?
How come everyone in this world loves others but not themselves! "
"Rather than let love die, I would rather live well with each other, even if the person by your side is not me."
"I went to the cinema to watch it. The screening room was packed, but it was a bit strange. Even if a couple watched the movie and one of them cried, he would never ask for comfort from the other half. Well, I think this movie is really interesting. I feel guilty!”
"After watching this movie, I can only say one word, awesome! Because everyone must have had other emotions before the real union, and the awesome thing about this movie is that it can easily evoke everyone's hidden feelings. I am experiencing a certain emotion, so I thought evilly that this movie has the potential to derail people’s spirits! Tsk tsk!”
"After reading "Love Letter", I couldn't help but pass by the door of the eldest brother's house that I had a crush on when I was a child. Then I saw an uncle with a greasy face. I felt bad for a moment. Suddenly I felt that the male protagonist in "Love Letter" might be someone to whom I had a crush. For Chen Bing, he didn’t die in a mountain disaster, but in time! He thought evilly, maybe my big brother I secretly loved had died a long time ago. He was definitely not that greasy uncle, ahhhhhh! I It’s impossible to have a crush on such an uncle!”
"After watching the movie, I laughed disdainfully. This is not our secret love, because people go in both directions. Also, this movie still tells us that this is still a world where faces are judged. I secretly thought that if we put the crush Chen Bing in the movie If Fang Xiao is replaced by a school belle-level beauty, will the male Chen Bing still have a crush on the female Chen Bing?"
"The people upstairs are so tough that they can't be demolished!"
“Finally the heroine shouted to Dashan: “How are you?” I’m fine,” I cried.
A few months ago, in order to attend a class reunion, I washed my car manually at one o'clock in the morning and selected clothes, thinking about meeting my first love as a successful person.
After graduation, I started from the bottom, joined a good local company, and bought a house. I thought I was more handsome and confident than before, and would impress her.
When I saw her husband appearing with her in hand, my inner sense of superiority collapsed. My classmates all said that she married a considerate husband. I pretended not to notice her happiness when she was talking and laughing with others.
Brand-name clothes and nice cars don’t make me feel successful. Maybe now is God’s best arrangement for her. "
"I didn't know what was going on and turned the card over casually.
I have nothing to say.
That's a picture of me in middle school.
While I was pretending to be calm, I wanted to put the card in my pocket. Unfortunately, the apron I like does not have a top or bottom pocket.
I felt inexplicably sad after reading this! "
"This story is really not simple. Compared with most romance movies, the plot of this movie is definitely complex and sophisticated."
As the number of screenings increases, more and more people have watched the movie, and there are more and more interpretations of the movie.
Du Xianghai's film review interprets the film from another perspective.
"Many people regard "Love Letter" as a "extreme secret love" movie, but is it really just that?
The heroine plays two roles, and director Li Yi also distinguishes the two heroines through the use of lenses. Use a stable long lens to shoot Lin Sui. At the same time, Lin Sui's clothes are mainly solid colors, mainly highlighting Lin Sui's elegant and quiet character. When shooting the female Chen Bing, she often uses sports lenses, and her clothes are also designed with squares. Mainly, show the lively character of the female Chen Bing. Although the two people look the same, their personalities are completely different.
This is just like the two of them in the movie at the end, one moving towards the future and the other clarifying the past.
The movie does talk about youth, secret love, and love on a superficial level, but on a deeper level, in my opinion, it has been talking about a proposition of life and death.
This can be seen from the many symbols in the movie.
Precisely because of their existence, "Love Letter" is not only a movie about youth love, but also a sublimation of the interpretation of "the meaning of life" and "the destination of death".
The first is snow and dragonflies, which are used to symbolize the tradition of mourning and the poignancy of death, rendering a pure and lively atmosphere.
At the beginning of the film, Lin Sui is lying on the snow, which already sets the tone of the entire film. It has a quiet and sad atmosphere. The dragonflies in the ice in Chen Bing’s memory are only sealed in the best moments. This is a kind of death aesthetics. At the same time, it uses Lin Sui's inability to accept the death of her fiancé and the female Chen Bing's memory of her father's death to ask people's spiritual questions about the death of those around them.
In many places in the film, the true meaning of life is understood from "life is as gorgeous as summer flowers, and death is as quiet and beautiful as autumn leaves".
Just like in the film, Lin Sui still hasn't come out of the shadows several years after her boyfriend Chen Bing's death. In the end, she shouted to the majestic snow-capped mountains: "How are you? I'm fine." She shouted until she couldn't help crying. Only to find that he was no longer there. Just like Chen Bing's grandfather and mother, when Chen Bing had a high fever, her mother actually thought that Chen Bing's father died because her grandfather insisted on carrying him to the hospital, forgetting that her grandfather only spent 40 He was carried to the hospital within minutes. It is unimaginable that after the death of Chen Bing’s father, grandpa walked the road from home to the hospital alone with his pocket watch, silently, over and over again, until he used those cold numbers to convince himself that his choice at that time was not wrong. So when the female Chen Bing encountered the same situation, he didn't hesitate at all.
This is all because when people face death, they will leave a lot of regrets that cannot be changed. They will always subconsciously blame themselves for the cause to comfort themselves.
In the end, Lin Sui was able to shout loudly to the mountain where Chen Bing died, releasing the burden and longing that she had buried in her heart. Chen Bing's mother finally realized her husband's death and no longer decided to move out of the old house where she shared memories with her husband. In the end, the female Chen Bing was able to accept the confession of the male Chen Bing through time and space after seeing the library card, which reflected the infinite beauty between life and death.
Those who have lost their loved ones and suffered big or small separations may have been like Chen Bing, grandpa, and mother in the movie, burying the pain in their hearts, suppressing their longings in their hearts, and not daring to face the fact that they are without them. The reality of existence refuses to let go of oneself, and refuses to learn to say goodbye again. We have all tried to blame ourselves, cover up, assume what-ifs, and think over and over again, just to find some regrets from the past and comfort ourselves.
But movies have always told us to deal with the past, face it, and face it. Treat yourself in the gentlest way, called reconciliation. Proust said in "In Search of Lost Time": Life is just a series of isolated moments. Relying on memories and fantasies, many meanings emerge, then disappear, and then reappear after disappearing.
It is regrettable, but it is also beautiful and healing, because it tells us in the most delicate way: beautiful memories will accompany the memories of the living and live in another way.
At the same time, look for yourself and be born towards the sun. "
