About Fidelity

Yesterday I found the best way for me to improve my English and French. Watching French movies with English subtitles.
I watched 「La Fidélité」(Fidelity) .Un film de Andrzej Zulawski avec Sophie Marceau. I cannot find the fucking Chinese simple subtitle so I use the English one the only one I could find.
But fortunately I understood this movie .I even couldn』t help tears streaming down my face as I watched it.
It’s all about one word ---- fidelity.


It’s a film subverting my Value.
I cannot image there are someone in the world who regard fidelity more important than love.
I understand why Clélia do these.But just understanding is not enough for me to do the same thing if I were she .I will rush towards Némo the one I really love absolutely. Even I won』t marry with Clève at all or I』ll rush out of the church’s door and hug Némo who stands there alone at the wedding moment and tell him how much I love him.

But Clélia didn』t do this because of fidelity the only thing she thought could make her happy.
At the whole wedding, she looked loss and a little sad that has been photographed by Némo.
Between love and fidelity, Clève’s brother, a Bishop of the Church, chooses the former as most of us would do. In the name of father we do what we really wanna do. Because God is always in our heart or in another word we are the God.
But Clélia chooses the latter. Without a doubt she is a special one. I respect her very much though I am on the other side of the fence.

 

At the end of the film,while she said 「sorry」 to her dead husband, I cried.

Alhough she never have sex with Némo, she was just attracted by him.It’s a soul Betrayal.

Everyone has his/her right to choose.
We can choose love so does she. Or she can choose fidelity following her own faith.

When she saw the Illusion her mother and father go for walk on the street hand by hand, she decided not to see Némo again.
Because she believed she would have happy only if she lived with her husband even she didn』t love him. She made the same mistakes that her mother did.

The person suffered most pain in the film is not Clève, Clélia’s husband, nor is Némo,the one she love, but Clélia herself .
She tried to cheated on her husband, once, the only once. But she found she couldn』t. She just couldn』t.
I think the so-called fidelity is not be fidelity to one’s companion nor loyal to the love itself.
But fidelity to our own heart and our faith.

Perhaps, Clélia’s husband, Clève, is a symbol of fidelity too.
He even died for love.

Someone said, I couldn't imagine where it was going but like staring at a fire I just couldn't get up and turn it off.
It’s also my feeling.
But that’s the way her love goes.
It makes me associate she with Fakir._ _|| And I even remember Silas, the killer in」 The Da Vinci Code」.Orzo.

By the way the photograph in this movie is very fabulous.
大好きだよ。


Last, I』ll share you a sentence I see on net.
「The resulting movie is a waste of time; wash your socks instead.」

It’s said by one person who have watched「La Fidélité」.I』m not going to agree the words but I like the expression 「wash your socks instead」. It’s funny .HIAHIA…HIAHIA...

それではまた。


-------------------------------------------
昨天我發現了我學習法語和英語的最好方法。就是看法語片，英語字幕。
我看了「忠貞」。安德瑞茲 祖勞斯基導演，蘇菲馬索主演的。我找求不到中文簡體字幕，只有看我唯一找到的英文字幕了。
不過好彩我還是看懂了這電影。我甚至看得淚流滿面。
主要就是圍繞一個詞---忠貞。

這是一部顛覆我價值觀的電影。
我無法想像原來這世界上有人把忠貞看得比愛情還重要。
我理解Clélia爲什麽那麽做。但是理解並不足以讓我也那麽做，如果我是她的話。我必然會奔向Némo，我真正愛的人。我甚至根本就不會嫁給Clève，或者我會在婚禮的時候直接衝出教堂門外，擁抱獨自站在那兒的Némo，然後告訴他我有多麽愛他。

但是Clélia沒有這樣做，為了她覺得唯一能使她快樂的「忠貞」。
整個婚禮，她都看起來茫然又帶點哀傷。這都被Némo拍了下來。

在愛與忠貞之間，Clève的哥哥，教會的主教，他像我們很多人會做的那樣選擇了前者。以天父之名，我們做我們真正想做的事。因爲上帝其實一直在我們心中，或者說我們就是上帝。
但是Clélia選擇了後者。毫無疑問，她是特別的。我很敬佩她，雖然我」站在另一邊」。
電影的最後，當她對她死去的丈夫說「對不起」的時候，我哭了。
雖然她從未和Némo發生過關係，她只是被他吸引。但這是一種心靈的背叛。

每個人都有他/她選擇的權利。
我們可以選擇愛，她也可以。或者她也可以她跟隨自己的信仰選擇忠貞。
當她幻覺看見她爸媽手牽手散步在街上的時候，她決定再也不見Némo。
因爲她相信她只有和他丈夫生活在一起她才能快樂，即使她不愛他。她重蹈了他媽的覆轍。

在電影裏，最痛苦的人，不是Clélia的丈夫Clève，也不是她所愛的人Némo，而是Clélia。
她嘗試過背叛他的丈夫，一次，唯一的一次。但是她發現她做不到。她就是做不到。

我想所謂忠貞，並不是對自己的伴侶或者對愛情本身忠貞。
而是忠於自己的心或者自己的信念。
也許，Clélia的丈夫 Clève,他也是忠貞的一個代表。
他甚至為愛而死。

有人說，我不能想像它怎樣發展，就像點著了火，我也不能繼續而要熄滅它(譯得比較純潔—.—各位也可以往歪的方面想這句話的意思。咳咳)。
這也是我的感覺。
但這就是她愛的方式。
它讓我聯想到苦行者。_ _||我甚至想起」達文西密碼」裏那個殺手 Silas。
Orzo.

順便說一句，這電影裏的照片，張張都很美的說。
超喜歡捏。

最後，跟大家分享一句我在網上看到的話。
這電影簡直就是浪費時間，還不如拿那時間來洗襪子。
是一個看了「La Fidélité」的人寫的。我不同意他的意見，不過我喜歡他這個表達」 wash your socks instead」(還不如洗襪子)。搞笑。HIAHIA…HIAHIA…

就到這裡吧。
