A love fairy tale for young and old: the Indian film "Low Sugar"
For a layman like me, love is really a distant thing.
To a layman like me, love is like a beggar being an emperor – a fantasy, a dream.
For a layman like me, roses are far less real than green onions and white radish.
……
I don't know if it's love that keeps me away because of my cheesiness, or if it's because I disdain love is close and far away. In the traces of my life, it seems that there has never been a true love in what I think it is.
Although, for me, love is so slim and elusive. However, it does not affect my perception of love. In my heart, true love (the reason why I say this is because there are too many hypocrisies under the guise of love. It's still a beautiful thing, and it's still something to watch and aspire to. Because of this, I will watch those interpretations of love.
India's "Low Sugar" is a "myth" about love, and after reading it, it left some traces:
A sixty-four-year-old British chef - a high-class chef, looking gentlemanly, with a pair of glasses and a bit of an intellectual taste, fell in love with a thirty-four-year-old Indian woman.
The Englishman called the Indian woman "kebab".
Indian women call British men "cabbage leaves".
After reading this, I wonder how you feel? I think, from this, it can probably be seen that they all have a lively and youthful heart.
There is a big difference in age between the two men: a full thirty years old. Interestingly, Kebab is even six years older than Naba's father, his future father-in-law. Therefore, the age gap alone seems to be conceivable how the world's eyes will reflect this matter. Although India has been colonized by the British for many years, the so-called Western-style open-mindedness, European and American openness that Chinese understand do not seem to have many traces in Indians. Don't always think about how Chinese parents are, in fact, from this film, it can be seen that Indian parents also have similarities with Chinese parents. Therefore, as for how Chinese treat marriage and family, this is not only in China, but also in other countries. Therefore, the idea that only Chinese parents will forcefully interfere in their children's feelings and marriages is not a prejudice, but a misunderstanding.
In fact, the resistance of love does not only come from parents. Judging from the film, even two people who love each other have some scruples and have a lot of concerns about their love.
It is interesting for an English man to tell his future father-in-law about their love relationship and marriage wishes. British men did not go forward without courage or scruples. He first prevaricated, hoping that the Indian girl would tell her father about it; Then he hoped to inform his father-in-law about it while he was walking, when he arranged to have a meal together, but in the end he did not say anything; The final scene, this incident is when the son-in-law and father-in-law go to the toilet together, the two are facing the urinal, the British man really doesn't want to delay any longer, can't drag anymore, he finally speaks, and completes this serious and important task in the bathroom. Thus:
Perhaps, those seemingly important things are actually as ordinary as going to the toilet.
Perhaps, those seemingly important things are actually suitable for decisions in the same situation as the toilet.
Upon learning that his daughter was going to marry an Englishman about his age, the Indian woman's father went on a hunger strike. Because, he was an admirer of "Mahatma Gandhi".
The daughter said that she would rather live with someone she loves for five to ten years than with someone she doesn't love for fifty years.
It is a belief in love.
The stubbornness of the father-in-law made the British man helpless. The British man was angry and ready to go back to England.
Inspired by the dying "sexy baby", the Englishman returns to the Indian woman, and the line goes something like this:
"Tears are flooding, all the passages have been flooded, and I'm back."
After getting the news of the death of the "sexy baby", the British man cried like a child.
Indian Woman Says:
"Don't cry, don't let the tears flow, in this way, it will dilute our love for her."
The people we love are heavily hidden in our hearts, tears are the dilution of love, if we love her, don't cry, let her stay in our hearts heavily.
When two people who loved each other went for a walk around the temple together, the girl told a story that if they could turn their backs to the pillar and hug the pillar with their backhands, then they could fulfill their heart's desire. The Englishman tried once that day and was unsuccessful.
This time when he came back from the airport, the man went to face the Shenzhu again, and his hands couldn't be reconciled, so he closed the Shenzhu, and with the help of his mother, he finally pulled the two hands together.
It is a symbol, a symbol of turning the impossible into a possibility.
It's a symbol, a symbol of flexibility.
It's a symbol, a symbol that you need someone else to get things done.
This kind of fairytale love, I still use the tone of adults telling stories when I was a child to summarize it:
This beautiful love story tells us that in this world, there are many seemingly difficult and unattainable things, but in fact, they can be done, depending on whether we are willing to do them or not.
