The expression of emotion has received widespread attention from audiences and critics. The plot of the film is simple, but the emotional expression is very delicate. It is not just a manifestation of an extramarital affair, but more importantly, it reveals the ethical values ??of middle-aged people - when feelings conflict with traditional ethics and morals. When, how should people choose? Should we choose free feelings or choose our responsibilities to the family?

The outstanding artistic expression of "The Lost Dreams on the Bridge" aroused the excitement of many middle-aged viewers, and also prompted them to take their own feelings seriously.

Unforgettable, and extremely sad... "Such a thing... will never happen again."

The novel "The Bridge's Lost Dream" arranges a very clear story The logic of the story: The last cowboy who claims to see the world like browsing a store window with his hands in his trouser pockets, a farmer's wife long forgotten by time, spent a blazing love affair in a chance encounter. 4 days. This is a typical extramarital affair. Morality always says "no" to extramarital affairs. However, the author does not use reason to challenge the morality in people's minds head-on. Instead, he uses the charm of sensibility to disarm morality. He first described the extramarital affair as intoxicating as wine and as holy as an angel. Then a very clever ending was designed: in order not to hurt her husband and children, the heroine would rather lose her love forever and stay alone in a life without any sex; the hero could have asked his sweetheart to accompany him to the end of the world, but He believed that "love is respect", and from then on he wandered alone, ending his life in depression. In this way, the author cleverly deifies the protagonists' sacrifices for morality and frees them from the moral shackles they should bear. … Extramarital affairs there became a beautiful and safe possibility to experiment with.

Excerpt from the novel "The Lost Dream on the Covered Bridge" is from: binzz, please keep it for reprinting.

"(Francesca) I feel so deeply for you that I don’t have the strength to resist. Even though I have said so many things about not depriving you of your freedom to make the road your home, I will still go with you, but For my selfish needs, I want you.

"But please don't let me do this, don't let me put aside my responsibilities. I can't, I can't be obsessed with this for the rest of my life. If I do this now, this mental burden will make me become another person, no longer the girl you love. "

Robert Kincaid was silent. He knew what she meant about the road, the duty, and the guilt that would change her, and he somehow knew she was right. He looked out the window, thinking in his mind He struggled fiercely to understand her feelings.

Then the two of them hugged each other for a long time.

He said in her ear, "I only have one thing to say, and I will never say it to anyone again. I want you to remember that in a universe full of chaos and confusion, Such a clear thing can only happen once, no matter how many lives you live, it will never happen again. "

They had sex again that night - Thursday night, lying together and touching each other. Whisper quietly until long after sunrise. Then Francesca slept for a while, and when she woke up the sun was shining brightly and it was already very hot. She heard the rattle of one of Harry's doors, and got up. The cowboys are already dressed and ready to mount their horses. "It's time for me to go."

She nodded and started to cry. She saw tears in his eyes, but he always kept his unique smile. ...Robert Kincaid waved to her through the window. She saw the silver bracelet on his hand flashing in the sunlight. The first two buttons of his shirt were open. He drove into the alley and kept driving down. Francesca kept wiping her eyes and looking hard. The sun reflected her tears and reflected the various personalities. Like the first night they met, she hurried to the entrance of the alley to watch the small truck bumping forward. The truck stopped at the end of the alley, the driver's door popped open, and he saw her 100 yards away. Outside, people become smaller due to distance.

He stood and stared, letting Harry vibrate impatiently in the heat. Neither of them moved, they had already said goodbye. They just looked at each other, one was the farmer's wife, the other was the end of species evolution, one of the last cowboys. He stood there for 30 seconds, that photographer's eye missing no detail, creating an image he would never lose.

He closed the door, started the engine, and cried again as he turned left onto the road. Just before a forest on the northwest side of the farm blocked his view, he looked back again and saw her sitting in the dust at the entrance of the alley with her legs crossed, her head buried in her hands.

Film review of "The Bridge of Lost Dreams"

Covered bridge wet dream? Yes, are you pursuing that perfect emotion left by the bridge, or are you pursuing that dream where only two people exist. Simple, sincere but deeply shocking and moving. The film is adapted from the novel of the same name by American writer Robert James Waller. After the film was released, it caused a sensation. The views on extramarital affairs and the rational emotions of middle-aged people it embodied were deeply concerned and discussed by people.

After watching this film, I was shocked and moved a lot. Perhaps looking at the bridge full of memories under the sunset, only Qin Guan's poem "Magpie Bridge Immortal" can explain it. "If the two love lasts for a long time, how can they stay together day and night?"

Comment on the "Legacy of the Covered Bridge"

When Francesca was sitting in her husband's car, she stared at Robert in front of her through the heavy rain window. Kincaid stopped the car and hung a token on the rearview mirror that Francesca had given him - her aunt when she was 7 years old. When he gave her a cross pendant with her name engraved on it, she could no longer restrain her emotions and burst into tears. Her husband, who was full of doubts, asked with concern how his wife was doing, but Francesca just said lightly. : “It’ll be fine after a while. "The heavy rain outside the window poured tears deep in her heart.

After Francesca's death, she left behind a pair of children. One day, her mother's lawyer brought some of her mother's belongings and presented them to her sister. The brothers announced their mother's last wish: the body was cremated and the ashes were scattered on the covered bridge in their town. Later, when they were sorting out their mother's belongings, they found a wooden box: inside was their mother's three belongings. This diary, her mother's clothes, and several old cameras, Francesca said in a letter to her siblings that maybe those three diaries would help them understand what she did and why she did it. Curiosity about exploring her mother's past drove her sister Caroline to open her mother's diary, and a long-lost past gradually surfaced...

A married woman who is a housewife; An international photographer who has traveled all over the world and made his home, two seemingly stranger hearts sparked an emotional spark within four days when her husband took the children out: they confessed their past experiences in a chat, Robert. Kincaid told Francesca anecdotes about his filming process, making Francesca laugh; they hugged and danced to the soft music; they cooked together and drank beer together; Robert would take Francesca to a place where others were I didn't know them playing in the bar... They were so harmonious, reaching an unprecedented unity of spirit and body. Francesca seemed to have returned to her girlhood and her original self. However, after the brief romance, the two were about to face the choice of separation. Robert wanted Francesca to go with him, but Francesca couldn't let go. After losing her family and finally failing to "escape" with Robert, Robert seemed to have returned to Francesca's life as before. No one knew, not even her closest husband and children. Knowing that she had had a brief "deviant" behavior, life seemed to be moving forward as usual, and Francesca and her husband Richard had been together for decades. One day, the gray-haired Francesca received a package from Robert Kincaid. In addition to some old things, there was also a brand-new photo album-the subject was Francesca, titled "Four." "Seal of Heaven", and left a letter written by Robert. After seeing all this, Francesca couldn't control herself and burst into tears. After so many years, she buried her love for Robert deeply in her heart, and there was not a day when she didn't miss him. Robert. Although this moment came a little late, it was the best comfort for Francesca. He was gone, but the perfect memories left to her were like the rainbow in her heart after the rain. Like a shadow, it can't be erased for a long time (Canoe's classic quotation)

The film "The Bridge of Lost Dreams" tells the story in a sentimental and beautiful tone, where the sister misses her mother. The current time and space of the diary and the time and space of the mother's memories are intertwined. The audience is like the two siblings, and as a member of this family, they can go deep into Francesca's inner world and experience her joy and sorrow. In the end, the mother's diary made the siblings feel their mother's sense of responsibility for their family. This strong family "centripetal force" made the siblings facing an emotional crisis re-examine their marriage. The next generation finally understood how the previous generation dealt with emotions. The inner agony of making a decision.

In this modern society with information explosion and impetuous emotions, it seems that words like "extramarital affair" can no longer attract the attention of viewers. People's forgiveness of this word has obviously subverted traditional ethical principles. In this film, soft music, picturesque scenery, plus Clint. Eastwood and Meryl. The two veteran drama stars Streep's well-structured and relaxed performances make "The Extramarital Affair" look so "honest" and "holy and perfect", dwarfing the same type of Chinese "extramarital affair" TV dramas.

There is no right or wrong in feelings, but when the balance of "emotion" and "responsibility" is placed in front of you, can you be like Francesca in the film: have the courage to assume your own moral rights and responsibilities? In fact, at this point, the value evaluation standards of China and the West reach the same goal by different routes. Although the times are changing, few people can truly put aside those so-called moral principles and traditional laws of being a human being, and love vigorously once.

It is undeniable that moral restraint is the "Sword of Damocles" hanging over Francesca's head. At the last critical moment, she resolutely gave up her relationship, chose family, and returned to ordinary life. It seems to have a relatively happy ending. The emotional experience of "you only live once" gave Francesca a detached attitude as she aged. From this point of view, Francesca, who has experienced some emotional choices, has a deeper sense of identification with her family. A brief "deviation" did not cause the family to stir up trouble and break up. Because she restrained her emotions just right. This is a good revelation for anyone who is in a "marriage crisis": feelings come and go in a hurry, people are like rainbows, and you will know when you meet them.

Film Review Selection Five:

Film Review of "The Bridge"

The film is based on the novel "The Bridge" by the American writer Robert James Waller. "adapted, the English title is "The Bridges Of Madison County", also translated as "The Bridges of Madison". The film was shot from September 15, 1994 to October 31, 1994. It was directed by Clint Eastwood, known as the "urban cowboy", and starred by Yi and the famous actress Meryl S. Starring Tripp, the film attracted widespread attention and praise after its release, and won many international awards. The heroine Meryl Streep was also nominated for the "Oscar for Best Actress" for the film. Many people praised this film and said they were deeply enlightened. Even when the film was released, it caused a sharp increase in the divorce rate in the United States. The four-day extramarital love story of Francesca and Robert Kincaid in this film undoubtedly has a great influence on family ethics in the real world. A strong shock. Let’s briefly talk about the plot:

Francesca is an ordinary rural housewife. She lives an ordinary family life with her husband, son and daughter. I prepare breakfast for my family every morning and watch them eat it. I knit sweaters while watching TV with my husband in the evening. Francesca actually knew in her heart that this was not the kind of living situation she had imagined when she was a girl, but she devoted herself unconditionally to her family and in exchange for her family's happiness and happiness, this was the source of her satisfaction. One morning, my husband and two children got into the car and headed to the city for a game, a journey that would take four days. Francesca, who was alone at home, unexpectedly met Robert, a lost photographer who took photos for National Geographic magazine and wanted to find the Madison Bridge. So the story happened.

One is a freelance photographer who is not bound by the secular world and marriage, and the other is a country peasant woman who has dreams but can only live a mediocre life. The two strangers met by chance when they asked for directions, and they became friends. Sparks of sincere emotion burst out, and in the following four days, the two people devoted all their life's passion to this relationship, and the entire movie also reached its climax. The two were inseparable, so Robert hopes that Francesca can leave there with him and spend his life with him.

What happens next should be of more concern to the audience: leaving with Robert? Or stay for the family? In the end, the director ended this gentle but extremely passionate film with a cup-like ending. The heroine finally chose to stay, for the sake of her husband and children, for the family she had carefully managed for more than ten years, and for the responsibilities that she could not let go of. Of course, this ending may also be the original work and director's attempt to cater to the audience and society. Understanding psychology is just a matter of writing. After all, the mainstream ethical thinking in society cannot understand extramarital affairs.

Marriage of pure emotion and responsibility, personal pursuit and family ethics, emotional impulse and rational thinking... The intersection of contradictions is also the sublimation of the theme of human nature. In my opinion, this film The work is a masterpiece that expresses the contradictions of human nature.

Born in Italy, the hometown of art, Francesca is full of artistic temperament. When she was young, she dared to follow her husband away from home and come to a small town in the United States to pursue her dreams. This shows that she has extraordinary charm and persistence. After becoming a married woman, Francesca is busy with her family every day, repeating a monotonous life every day, and going around the clock, but deep in her heart she still retains the dream of a romantic artistic life, all of which can be seen in the film. glimpse in. She loves listening to artistic music stations and has kept them in mind (when Robert asked her to recommend a music FM, she immediately named the band accurately). The interior decoration is simple and exquisite, which is pleasing to the eye. The noble Greek aristocratic hair style and sideburns The trivial hairline makes her look more natural and friendly. Frequent reading of Yeats's collection of poems makes people believe that she is no ordinary American country peasant woman, etc.

Of course, all this can only be awakened after Robert arrives. Only Robert can make this dreamy woman regain the memories and expectations of her girlhood. Why Robert? Because of his great artistic charm and extraordinary travel experience, traveling around the world also gave him unique insights. Undoubtedly, this mature but still shy girl standing in front of him barefoot attracted Robert's attention. The conversations along the way also made him deeply curious about the girl in front of him, who was elegant and natural, straightforward yet solemn. When he sensed from Francesca's words that she was troubled by the monotony of life at the moment, he was also... So curious that I kept asking. Perhaps when the two people first met each other's eyes, the so-called passion seeds were sown, and then the in-depth pleasant conversation stimulated this passion, so that the originally scrupulous ethical and secular concepts were completely broken by the emotional impulse. . But I have to say that they are really suitable for each other. "Such a true love only comes once in this life." I don't know how to describe it. Perhaps this sentence is the most accurate.

This film was a big shock to me. Although I have not yet entered marriage, let alone thinking about what will happen more than ten years after marriage, the male and female protagonists are wonderful and delicate. The performance of "The Story of Love" made me truly realize the beauty of emotion and the responsibility of family. Sometimes you can't have both. The glory of human nature is always displayed when dealing with contradictory things. No matter what you choose, it always means letting go. Others, so the greatness of human nature does not lie in what we choose but in the courage to give up those reluctances in our hearts, right! Not choosing but letting go!

At the end of the film, at an intersection under heavy rain, under the flashing red light, two cars were parked one behind the other. In the car behind, Francesca sat in the side seat, looking at the car in front with the left turn signal flashing. That was his car, and he was in that car. Although you couldn't see his expression, you could see him hanging the necklace she gave him on the rearview mirror. The necklace trembled with the vibration of the car engine, just like her trembling heart. Go with him? Although she had already made a decision before. But at this moment, I felt panic and helplessness like never before. The light turned green, but the car hadn't started yet. The husband next to me complained and honked the horn. Should I go with him? When she was almost about to open the door, the car started moving. She let out a sharp breath, slumped in her seat, and burst into tears.

Making a choice is the most difficult thing for a person, especially when a girl is faced with the dilemma between her dreams and her family responsibilities. How to choose? I don't think any choice is right or wrong. The only one who suffers the most is herself! I was very happy that at the end of the film she chose family responsibilities and her children all understood her. I can only say that I am still a person who prefers traditional family ethics, so this result is easy to understand for me. In short, the film deeply moved me, and more importantly, it made me understand the benefits of responsibility. Of course, if you have a choice, it is best to unite your dreams and family, and wish you the best for the future!
