What kind of movie is Cairo Time?

Generally speaking, Cairo Time is a film that will make people look forward to life and be more tolerant of life.

The film focuses on the heroine Juliet's mental journey in Cairo. Juliet, who has been together with her husband for a long time, went to Cairo with beautiful expectations to meet her husband. They made an appointment to see the pyramids of Egypt together. With this expectation, Juliet has been waiting for Mark's return in the hotel. While waiting, Juliet in a foreign country had to face many unexpected things. In order not to be too spoiler, I won't elaborate on the plot. Judging from the overall rhythm of the film, it is warm and introverted, just like Juliet's character and the feelings between her and Tariq.

Specifically, the film has three main points:

First of all, the customs of Cairo.

The film was shot in Cairo, which is the largest city in the Arab region and one of the oldest cities. The director introduced the daily life of Cairo to the audience from Juliet's perspective: there are Middle Eastern women who wear black gauze to shuttle through the streets and lanes of Cairo, Muslims who pray sincerely, children who wander happily in the streets, young Cairo people who follow beautiful girls to show their love, the charming Nile River and the endless desert where the heat wave rolls; This is a golden city. Following in the footsteps of Juliet and Tarek, the audience can also integrate into the street life in Cairo and feel the hot temperature and long culture of the city.

Second, Juliet and Tariq had a love affair that ended in a ceremony.

"Love ends with ceremony" is a very appropriate description of Juliet and Tarek's feelings. The beauty of their feelings lies in that it ends in an undercurrent. The love between Juliet and Tarek is forbearing. Mark doesn't know it, but the audience knows it very well. They walked through the streets of Cairo and the tranquil Nile together, burying all their feelings in their hearts. Under the guidance of Tarek, Juliet saw a different world. And when Mark came back, everything came to an abrupt end. Juliet watched her leave outside the elevator, but she couldn't see Tarek's hesitation, struggle and final calm ~

Tarek couldn't see Juliet's tears in the car. Details are always easy to be ignored, but they often best reflect a person's true state. Just like Juliet suddenly fell in love with loud music when she first arrived in Cairo, as "It's a pity it wasn't you" sang, this is probably the evidence of love. Adult love is not so vigorous, because we all know that maturity means that you know what kind of people you will be attracted to. The strength lies in that no matter whether you win or lose, everyone can pretend to go on lightly.

Third, Juliet, Tariq and Mark all have good personalities.

Juliet has a unique charm, which benefits from the excellent acting skills of the hostess. The plot is not much, and the film is not good, but it doesn't seem to be much better. Deeply attracted by the hostess, I closed my eyes and could only think of the lake blue dress, which was beautiful but not vulgar. Seeing someone like Juliet, I really sigh that girls can be so elegant ~

Ps, I checked the information and learned that the hostess has served as the chairman of the jury of the film festival many times.

Let's talk about Tariq. He is really a gentleman. When it comes to the person he once loved most in his life, three views are incorrect.

Everyone in the film has few lines. Every short conversation will let the audience know that an educated person should be like this.

Finally, mark. Mark appeared in the film for a short time.

But judging from his loyalty to his duties and willingness to go to dangerous areas, he is a courageous and caring person.

After reading Cairo Time, I realized:

A movie can be so attractive, slow-paced, gentle and powerful, without complicated plot.
