movie "Sweet Honey" is sad or happy is really not well defined, but I tend to think that sadness has more elements. On the surface, this movie is about the love story of two people, but inside it is about the ups and downs of small characters. Everyone has a dream and believes that they will have a bright future.
After Li Xiaojun's marriage broke down, he left his hometown to work as a cook in Chinatown in the United States. While waiting for Li Qiao to go to the street, Leopard was robbed by a black man and injured by mistake. He still had that funny Mickey Mouse tattooed on him. Holding the memories of a few days, the aunt waited for William all her life. She also knew in her heart that William might never come back, but she kept those belongings that belonged to him until she died. Another tenant got AIDS and went back to Thailand with her boyfriend. They all had dreams, they all believed that they would break into the world, and they were both brilliant and young, but in the ending, they were all gone, and they would not change because of the departure of any small person. "But in a bleak late autumn night, it suddenly became clear, and the yellow leaves fell apart." So, looking like this, Li Xiaojun and Li Qiao met. This may be the author's intolerance, or perhaps the last bit of warmth in the ending. In
, Leopard Brother and Li Xiaojun represent two types of men, and they are the best men in the two categories. Leopard represents a mature old man who has a successful career and is very proficient. The most terrible thing is his sincerity. This is the best of old men, the most perfect uncle. He can give you a sense of security, can see through your heart, take care of you in every possible way, and speak the most touching love words. He reminded me of Bryder in "Gone with the Wind".
However, Li Xiaojun is the other extreme, representing the innocence of first love. Tall and handsome, innocent and kind, the love between Li Qiao and him is the love that makes her the most uneasy, the first love in people's hearts, the most desperate one. However, the biggest difference between the two of them is that in terms of feelings, Li Xiaojun is not counseled at all, and Ashley is counseled to death. This is a fairy tale. And I think Li Qiao loves both of them. But why he chose to follow Brother Leopard, because in that situation, she understood that Brother Leopard really loved her, and she couldn't bear to live up to this love.
In the first half of the film "Sweet Honey", Maggie Cheung and Liming were still in a ambiguity. One day, when it was time for Maggie to go home in the evening, rain fell outside the window. Dawn was reluctant to part with the beautiful woman, and wanted to ask her to stay, suffering, ashamed and timid. When it's hard to open his mouth, he eagerly wants to help Manyu dress. A scene where Maggie Cheung was buttoned up was shot for almost two minutes. Buttoned one by one, breath by mouth, every second passed.
then finished buttoning up a piece of clothing, still feeling unfulfilled, reluctant to give up, simply help her wear another one. She sits on the back seat of the bicycle and swings her feet slowly. There is no makeup on her face, no cosmetic contact lenses and false eyelashes, and no trace of being destroyed by life. Then came later. When I was young, it was the spring breeze, and breaking the ban was also a kind of elegance. On the second day that Manyu Liming slept, both of them were excited, tilted their heads and looked at each other's faces and said Happy New Year. After I finished speaking, I felt that it was not enough, so I said all the auspicious words that could come up in my mind: Happy Dragon Boat Festival, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, Merry Christmas. No matter how many festivals are used to celebrate you, there are too few. No matter how long years are used to adore you, it is too short.
Later, Manyu watched Liming leave, with Teresa Teng's "Goodbye My Lover". This is what Teresa Teng cried and sang on stage when she was about fifty. I have never experienced a severe parting from my lover, and I cannot understand the sadness of this song. Teresa Teng and Maggie Cheung are very similar, both as a woman and as an artist. When you are young, no one can avoid being silly and sweet. But the real evil-forced woman is especially able to withstand the trials of the years. The older, the more awe-inspiring heroic spirit hidden in his bones will emerge. Very beautiful, very beautiful.
