Before Sunrise, Before Sunset

    "An Ocean Apart" by Julie Delpy
　　
　　Now, we are together
　　Sitting outside in the sunshine.
　　But soon we’ll be apart
　　And soon it’ll be night at noon.
　　
　　Now, things are fine
　　The clouds are far away, up in the sky
　　But soon, I’ll be on a plane
　　And soon, you’ll feel the cold rain.
　　
　　You promised to stay in touch when we part
　　You promised before I left that you’ll always love me
　　Time goes by and people cry
　　And everything goes too fast.
　　
　　Time goes by and people cry
　　And everything goes too fast.

    Today, I watched "Before Sunset again. I found that it contained much more things than "Before Sunrise".

    There are nine years between the two movies. I cannot describe my feeling with words. In my view, it is better that there are some time between you watch the two movies. Maybe you can understand more about the meaning of the two movies.

    Nine years is not a very long time. But in one's life, it is actually a long time. As adults, they experienced many things: love, marriage and being parents. But reality tells us that women usually are more innocnet than men. Nine years later, Jesse Wallace had been a father of a four-year-old baby and he also had a looking good marriage. However, Céline had a boyfriend, but she could not confirm her marriage. Maybe in love, apparently, men worry more than women. Actually, women worry more than men. 

    Most of us are not that lucky. Many years later, we will borrow any chance to forget the people who we loved once.

   
   

The Notebook

This movie is about first love, about pure love.

Noah and Alles, one is a girl from rich family, one is a boy from a poor family. He jumped to the ferris wheel to express his love. She also lied in the middle of street with him crazily. She was an elegant lady, but she didn't care because of love. Yes, it is love. Except love, nothing could make her so powerful. They loved so hot, so crazy and so unforgettable.

Remember at that time we were young, you liked talking and I liked laughing. During that time, the sky is blue, the grass is green and the sunlight is shiny when I was with you. My smile is like the red skirt in mayday; my heart is like the shiny star in the sky. This is the first love, innocent, pretty but weak.

Love doesn't have that many excuses and reasons. We just need a simple love which is so easy: The boy loves the girl; the girl loves the boy.

Dead Poets Society

After watching the movie "Dead Poets Society", I understand the value of meaning. Life is our stage. It is not important that what it is like. What we will choose and play in the stage is important. No matter what you choose, you should remember that it is your own choice and you are willing to pursue in your whole life.

There are many things in our life is basic but important: dream, passion and responsibility. We are all catchers to protect our mind, our dream. Living commonly and die without regret, I will choose the latter without heistation. Why? People are great because of dream.

Just remember to watch this movie which will change you!

Les Miserables

I just watched the music drama of Les Miserables a month ago. But I have been lost in Les Miserables. I decided to become its fan when I watched it. The music drama made me cry many times. Then I went to cinema to watch the movie. In fact, I'm not satisfied with this movie. But there are some details make you feel it is good and some other details make you feel it is not that great. All in all, it is good as a whole.

The music drama and the movie shows how great the original work is. Les Miserable has been re-shooted many times. Each version has its own advantages and weak points. This time, this music drama movie is a brave try.

Les Miserable is a profound book which contains the end of life and the rise of hope. It also contains various kinds of love in the world. This world has many aspects, each aspect has its own chram, each chram is beautiful.

Do you hear the people sing?

Singing a song of angry men?

It is the music of a people
　　
Who will not be slaves again!
　　　
When the beating of your heart
　　
Echoes the beating of the drums

There is a life about to start
　　
When tomorrow comes!
　　
Will you join in our crusade?
　　
Who will be strong and stand with me?
　　
Somewhere beyond the barricade
　　
Is there a world you long to see?
　　
Then join in the fight
　　
That will give you the right to be free!!
　　
Will you give all you can give
　　
So that our banner may advance
　　
Some will fall and some will live
　　
Will you stand up and take your chance?
　　
The blood of the martyrs
　　
Will water the meadows of France!

Life of Pi

On January 10, the host of 85hth Oscar Seth MacFarlane and the actress Emma Stone read out the list of Oscar nomination.

Steven Spielberg's new movie "Lincoln" is nominated by 12 awards. Ang Lee's "Life of Pi" is following it. And "Les Misérables", "Silver Linings Playbook" and "Argo" are all nominated for some awards.

Life of Pi is a wonderful and amazing movie to me. In the movie, Pi usually lives with himself. But in the beginning and ending, there are two things accompany Pi in his life: family and religion. Family and religion are best ways for many people to escape. Religion offers a guess to explain the world. To individuals, it is always the comfort when we face the unknown world. Family makes us feel that we are responsible for the world, we are connected to the world and we should contribute to the world. It proves the value of our existence. The two things give us the courage to face ourselves.

When you realize that life and yourselves are not to be won, instead, they are used to live with, then you will get clear that some things are unreasonable, but you have to believe that you have to rely on something which is not that stubborn. It is life’s choice.

Moreover, we also have to know: No matter what kind of things you do, and what belief you have, only you believe it, it is meaningful.

Flipped

I watched "Flipped" twice. I am really moved and flipped. A pair of children, a tree, a very simple story, but they are so inspiring. There is one point impressed me: The girl knows to introspect when she was little. She knows to distinguish whether this boy deserve her love or not. If he hurts her esteem, she will decide to give up this love immediately. 

Flipped is a very simple story but the content is rich. It is mainly about puppy love. But it is also about how to pursue your dream, how to respect pther people, being deligent and how to view poverty, how to accept handicapped families and how to protect esteem.

In this movie, Bryce's grandfather says about Juli, "Some of us get dipped in flat, some in satin, some in gloss.... But every once in a while you find someone who's iridescent, and when you do, nothing will ever compare."

I'm so happy that there is still so many beautiful things in our life. We lighten our life for each other. And we let the darker and darker world becomes so warm and good sometimes. When we are getting old and cannot dram anymore, please lighten the light in our heart, The light will finally turns into our smile.

Life is Beautiful

Given that live the most difficult and darkest days, given it is hopeless, the death is in the front, he is still love and protect his wife and son. His courage and wisdom is so brilliant even in the war, in the prison and at the moment of death.

“La vita è bella/Life is beautiful” is a very romantic movie. The Jew young man Guido Orefice came to a town in Italy. He prepared to run a bookstore to make a living. There he met the beautiful girl Dora. Then there were some bright, funny and romantic stories. Finally, they got married. Then we can see that they play with their son. We all envy their happy life. But nothing is more suffering than cutting down the happiness. When their happy life just begin, Guido was caught because he was Jew. His wife didn’t need to follow him. But she just followed him without hesitation. Sometimes true love don’t need much words.  

Guns, explosive, toxic gas, death, hunger, these things seem strong and powerful, but the last victors are only human and life. The true light will make us not afraid, being strong, happy and hopeful. Life is beautiful. So we can win.
