Every filmmaker grew up watching movies, no exceptions!

Spielberg was very touched that someone actually put movies like "Hard Rice", "Outlaws", and "Girlfriend Friday" back into the movie!

Spielberg, who was born in 1946, can be said to have grown up watching these movies!

These things carry his initial emotion for the movie.

Movies are fascinating things!

There has never been an art form that integrates so many traditional arts, and enters the lives of all classes and groups in a less solitary manner.

The movie gives everyone the opportunity to enjoy the world's highest level of fun for a few hours, forget themselves for a while, experience a completely different life, and get the extreme shock of the kidneys and heart!

We can utter a lot of movie lines with one mouth, like 'Life is like a box of chocolates, and the results are often unexpected'

When I was young, I always thought I would meet a lot of people. Then you will understand that the so-called chances are actually only a few times. ’

‘Oh captain，my captain！’

'Let your friends underestimate your strengths and your enemies overestimate your weaknesses. ’

'Stay close to your friend, but closer to your enemy, so that you can get to know him better.' ’…

Too much!

Why?

Because we love movies from the bottom of our hearts!

Therefore, we hate "Little Times" very much, and we hate the proliferation of money-making movies like "Gardenia Blossom"...

Because we know that this kind of thing doesn't deserve to be called a movie!

This kind of thing is called feelings!

……

"No, Duoduo, you can't take a leave of absence, being a projectionist is not something you should do in your life, one day you should do something else, those things are much more important than now!"

Evert put his hand on Little Duoduo's face, and then took it away, Duoduo had grown up.

Jeremy Irvin is on the scene, and our Duoduo has grown up!

He tried to shoot things with a camera.

Then, he ushered in his first love, uh, should I say a crush, in love with the banker's daughter, Elena.

Evert is not optimistic about the relationship.

By the way, the international version of Cinema Paradiso that we can see now has a lot of scenes deleted and doesn't focus much on how Duoduo pursues Elena's story.

Participating in the film festival, Xu Hui still uses the 127-minute international version, 155 minutes and 177 minutes, the narrative is too long, and there is no taste of 'Paradise Cinema'...

At the beach, Evert tells Duoduo that 'life is not a movie, life is much harder than a movie' and the story of the guard and the princess' The king's guard is deeply in love with the princess, and then he finally has a chance to confess to the princess, and the princess tells the guards that if they can stay under the princess's balcony for a hundred days and nights, the princess will make a promise. 10 days, 20 days... Regardless of the wind and rain and the mosquito bites, the guards insisted on waiting under the princess's balcony, and by the 90th day, the guards became weak and pale, all in the eyes of the princess. But on the 99th day, the soldier was gone...'

"Don't ask me what I mean, tell me when you figure it out..."

The teenagers don't understand, and in fact, many viewers who watch the movie for the first time don't understand either.

But the meaning of the story should be clear by now: the soldier proved love with 99 days, and the last day showed his dignity ...

The guards take 99 steps, leaving 1 step for the princess. If the princess can't take this step, it means that the princess is completely indifferent to the guards, and she can never be moved in exchange for love. The importance of this step cannot be overstated.

Lu Sihao said: When you pay too much, you can't extricate yourself. What you can't give up is no longer the person you like, but the person you pay silently. When you marvel at your own efforts, the person you fall in love with is actually just yourself at that time. In the end, in this one-man show, the only person who moves you is yourself.

Evert knows that Duoduo is very talented and promising, and staying in this town will only delay him for life, and if he stays for a long time, he will feel that this is the whole world.

Duoduo doesn't understand what this means, and he begins to pursue Elena, which eventually impresses her, and the two kiss in various ways...

And then there is the common episode, the heroine's family is crazy against it...

After all, there is a class gap, Duoduo is just a projectionist, and Elena is the daughter of a banker...

Duoduo went to military service, and Elena went to Paris.

The camera switches again, Duoduo is in the barracks, only a letter from his mother...

Many people think that he is out of love when they see this, and Duoduo himself thinks so.

At the end of his military service, Duoduo returns to the town, and Evert tells Duoduo 'Don't stay here, go to Rome!'

'Go out and wander, don't come back until I'm dead, don't call, don't write.' I don't want to talk to you here, I want to listen to people talk about you! Don't give up because you're homesick, forget about us, work hard, just like you loved the projector when you were a kid... If you don't have an achievement, don't come back!'

The train departed and faded away...

Thirty years later, Duoduo, who was already a famous director, returned to the village.

By the way, Matt's cuteness finally appeared...

……

When the mother went to open the door, because she was anxious, she forgot to put down the wool in her arms, and the thread was pulled, first the needle "clanked" and fell to the ground, which made people's hearts tight, and then on the sweater on the chair that was originally knitted, the wool was torn apart in a circle, and after the wool finally stopped, the mother called "Duoduo" softly downstairs.

Thirty years!

In the lens of the wool being torn apart in circles, everyone can feel the loneliness of the mother over the years and the heartache of the moment, and can imagine that no matter how far the child goes, the child will always be the thread in the mother's arms...

In fact, "Cinema Paradiso" tells a very small story, the confession of a filmmaker...

Of course, there are three character relationships throughout: the relationship between Duoduo and his mother and sister, the love affair between Duoduo and Elena, and the year-old friendship between Duoduo and Everdo, which connects Duoduo and the movie.

The role of the mother is very plump:

She told Duoduo that every time she called him, a different woman was always answering. She understands that if her son either doesn't meet the person he loves, he is connected;

She told Duoduo that she had only loved one man in her life, and that was Duoduo's father, so she could understand Duoduo's feelings;

She told Duoduo that before his military service, when he was in love with Elena, every night she would leave the door, lie on the bed and listen to the movement outside the house, and when Duoduo returned home, she would quietly get up and lock the door;

She told Duoduo that after he became a projectionist in the town, she couldn't sleep every night, she always put a key in the keyhole, she was afraid that she would suddenly fall asleep, and she was afraid that her son would not be able to enter the house.

Duoduo listened silently to his mother's chatter, he never knew that his mother had always cared about him so much.

Duoto walks into the simple cottage of the deceased Evert: stills from his movies hang on the walls, pictures of him on the table... Evert's wife tells Duoduo that until his death, Evert was still thinking about him.

In the hundredth minute, Elena, who was already fifty years old, appeared, and the two finally solved the previous mystery.

It's Everett's obstruction!

He lied to Elena and said that Duoduo had given up on the relationship...

Mad, Duoduo rushed to the Cinema Paradiso, and in the screening room—in a cloud of dust and mess—found the note that Elena had left for him. The note read: She will always love him.

Things are, people are not.

At the Evert house. His wife handed Duoduo a box of film. On her deathbed, she said, Evert asked her to give it to him. She didn't know what was on the film.

Duoto calls Elena again, and he wants her to go to Rome with him.

Elena replied to him, and everything was over. It was just a sweet dream to hug each other tightly last night. With such a beautiful dream, she knows enough. She told Duoduo that she had been following his achievements, that she watched every movie he made, and that she listened to all the news about him. But it's all gone.

Once again, the square was filled with people. Cinema Paradiso collapsed with the sound of explosions.

(In the 155-minute director's cut, there was a period of one-night passion, and Xu Hui decisively abandoned it... It's too damaging to the aesthetics, probably the Italians think that they can just waste it when they get married... ）

With the sound of the explosion, Duoduo couldn't help but tremble;

The days of Cinema Paradiso are over!

Back in Rome, Duoduo immediately fell into a hurry.

When his secretary informed him of his award, Toto was indifferent, handed the film that Evert had left him to the projectionist for him to play, and then he walked into the screening room.

The lights went out and the film slowly rotated on the projector. Scenes that had been passed by the old priest followed: he kissed her, he kissed her, she kissed him, she kissed her, she kissed her again, she suddenly tore her clothes in front of the camera, revealing the beautiful Naiko...

Duoduo choked back tears, in the dark, in the interplay of light and shadow, smiling.

End of the movie!
