Chapter 1,722 Two Lonely Souls

After the screening of "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" ended, the first batch of moviegoers left their own reviews of the movie.

"I started to want to live happily, sleep in bed, and care about each other! In fact, they are just two lonely souls who happened to meet and warm each other!"

"Lyon only has a potted plant, is not good at words, and loves to drink milk. He doesn't look like it, but he is really a killer. The arrival of Matilda is a burden, but it also brings life to Lyon. However, this setting is destined to be

The tragedy ended. After Lyon died, Matilda dropped the seeds of his potted plants to the ground and took root. Finally, Lyon stopped sleeping uneasily on the chair with a pistol every day. He fell to the ground. Matilda is so special."

"It's a story about two kids, a girl and a boy, who in their minds are both 12 years old, and they both feel lost and they love each other deeply."

"Leon's door opens, and a beam of light that seems to come from heaven shines on Matilda's face. Give him happiness and never ask questions. The details and general direction are excellent, a film with almost perfect control."

"Seeing the burst of tears, the most affectionate killer in the world. The lucky girl met a real man at the age of 12."

"I hope you're not lying. I hope deep down in your heart you really don't have any feelings for me. You'd better not have any feelings for me at all. Because as long as you have just a little bit, you will regret that you didn't feel anything right.

I said. I love you, Leon!"

"She looks like a twelve-year-old girl on the outside, but she's a twenty-year-old woman on the inside. She looks like an uncle on the outside, but she's a twelve-year-old boy on the inside!"

There are more interpretations of "This Killer Isn't Too Cold".

Interestingly, perhaps because of the different times, people watch more movies, so the seemingly forbidden love in "The Killer Is Not So Cold" did not arouse much criticism.

On the contrary, they all looked at it very rationally.

Famous Hollywood film critic Arenas: "This is a very special movie. Don't limit it to age. For Matilda, Leon gave her care and love she had never had before. This love, in fact,

It is not simply understood as love, it is mixed with many things, such as father's love, mother's love, or a warm family. Of course, for a young girl who has just begun to have an affair, she may think that it is love.

For Lyon, in fact, he also doesn’t particularly understand what love is. For Matilda, maybe it’s just because his life is too simple. Before meeting Matilda, his life only had one color.

But after meeting her, his life had other possibilities.

His love is restrained and introverted. His love is: I love you, so I won’t kiss you. I love you, so I say cold words to you. I love you, so I want you to leave me and live with you.

My own life. I love you, so I choose to protect you silently. Protection is the way I love you.

This is Leon's love for Matilda. The love between a fish and a bird cannot be put aside. You can only choose to love in this way. Love with tolerance and love with pain.

A killer should not be too kind and should not care about a person, so Leon is not a good killer.

People often wonder why Lyon carries the pot of pothos wherever he goes, and why at the last moment of crisis, he still asks Matilda to take care of a pot of plants.

What's so strange about a potted plant?

Pothos is the best evidence that Leon is not a good killer.

The green radish represents the weak, represents those who need protection and care, and represents the love that Leon once could not protect.

In fact, Leon really wants to love someone, protect her, take care of her, and care for her. If that person doesn't show up, then he has no choice but to fill the void with a pot of pothos. Matilda is just like the pot of vibrant pothos.

, to fill his wounded heart.

The spiral staircase, brown and black, exudes a simple, solemn and depressing atmosphere. Step by step, you go up the stairs, rotating, rotating, and you get lost as the stairs rotate. At the end of the rotation, there is an elf-like girl waiting quietly.

Smoking a cigarette uninhibitedly and talking to each other pretending to be mature. The beginning is often inadvertent.

He knew that with his status, it was best not to provoke those evil policemen who were worse than mad dogs. However, when faced with Matilda's pleadings, his cold heart began to melt. The door opened and Leon came in.

Matilda, gave her a safe haven, and at the same time gave her lonely heart a chance to redeem herself.

Therefore, this elf-like mature yet childish girl stubbornly stuck herself in Lyon's life and never wanted to leave. She stubbornly asked him to avenge her younger brother, stubbornly asked him to teach her to "clean up", and stubbornly asked him to "clean up".

Love her, care about her, and stubbornly change his life.

Reason tells Leon that the killer cannot have feelings. He must kill her. However, his heart has been shaken. His life is no longer just about killing people and the pot of pothos. He really loves her, and he can be brave alone for her.

He broke into the police station and faced Agent 100 alone for her. He never forgot to avenge Mathil until his death, and was buried in a roar.

His love is so profound. A girl in her teens, an indifferent man in his thirties or forties; an angel who can hear the call of the Lord at any time, a demon with blood on his hands... no matter what,

They were all gaps that could not be crossed. He could only hide this love that could not be put aside deep in his heart. On the surface, he kept rejecting her. Until the last moment, he dared to say to her: "Matilda, I love you."

At this moment, this sentence may become a ticket to send little Matilda back to the world, rather than a trigger that ruins her life.

Is there a person in this world who can open a door for you and give you a safe haven like Leon? Is there a person who can love you so deeply and forbearingly, protect you silently, and endure

Your stubbornness, loving you but rejecting you.

In this movie, there is indifference and sin everywhere. Lyon is outside the mainstream culture and community life because of his profession as a killer and the lack of cultural integration. The film tells the audience through the shaping of the storyline and the meticulous attention to detail.

It shows Lyon's delicate and lonely inner world.

In the first scene, before the audience could see what our male protagonist looked like, they were fascinated by his elusive and agile image in a fierce gun battle. And when Leon appeared face-to-face in front of the audience for the first time

, the atmosphere suddenly changed.

The clarinet played desolate music. He locked himself in the room, took a shower feebly and tiredly, sat alone at the table and drank milk, ironed clothes carefully, wiped flowers and leaves, and finally sat alone in a dark corner with a pistol and fell asleep.

Go. This whole process proceeds slowly and calmly with the rhythm of the music, immediately highlighting Leon's loneliness. And the inseparable relationship between him and a pot of rootless plants appears on the screen again and again, even when facing

When he dies, he wants to protect the flowers first rather than himself. This reveals a trace of warmth in the killer's indifference, which seems to be destined that this little bit of warmth will become the source of his destruction.

Leon is an Asian who smuggled here. He doesn't understand English and can't read. He is forced to rely on being a killer to maintain his life. This bloody living situation is consistent with him watching the old movie "Singin' in the Rain" alone in the theater.

The kind and honest smile he showed during the movie formed a shocking contrast.

It is very different from the image of the cold, cunning and cruel killer we have established in most films. Leon's almost clumsy gait in life, his wandering eyes when speaking and his inarticulate and clumsy attitude are in sharp contrast to Matilda.

A clumsy tongue... These step by step create a tragic hero in the minds of the audience who finally fights for justice and is close to the audience.

Leon was doomed to be lonely. He treated the world's indifference with indifference and countered the world's cruelty with cruelty, but the kindness and gentleness hidden in his heart became his fatal wound. Tony, the only person he trusted, finally betrayed him, and

Matilda was the source of his murder. In this world, friendship and love have become destructive factors.

The heroine Matilda is a product of this deformed world. She grew up in a family with complicated relationships and no warmth. Her father is a drug dealer. Her stepmother and half-sister have no relationship with Matilda, except for

She is also a four-year-old half-brother. There is really nothing to miss in this family. This family environment has caused her rebellious character and she has become a problem child. She skips school, smokes, and is too precocious...

In Matilda's eyes, killing is not an unacceptable thing. Killer is also a very "cool" profession, just as normal as other professions.

She does not feel sad about the death of her father, stepmother and sister, because they are as worthless and unworthy of sympathy like all the scum in this society. But the murder of her young and innocent brother is intolerable.

As Matilda said: "He is only four years old, what mistake has he made?" Therefore, other people deserve to die, but her brother does not deserve to die, and Matilda believes that it is only natural to continue to use murder to take revenge.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with using murder to solve problems. In the film, Matilda tries to convince Leon based on movie images such as “male and female robbers” and “Thelma and Louise” – killers don’t all work alone.

, it can be seen that the standards of justice for children in this society have been completely blurred and deformed. This also reflects the creator's reflection on the negative impact of media on young people in real society.

This world seems too cruel to Matilda. At her age, she should enjoy the warmth of family and experience all the beauty in the world. She should not yet know what ugliness and sin are, but here, she sees everywhere

Is it indifference, pain or even death. When she asked Leon with bloodshed: "Is life so hard throughout life, or is it only so hard in childhood?", the answer she got was "That's how life is." This helpless but honest answer can

It was said to be Lyon's deepest pain for the world, and it also broke Matilda's young and fragile heart's last beautiful yearning for the world.

Matilda is an outcast in the post-industrial society. Meeting Lyon completely changed her world. Lyon saved her life three times, but a man who specialized in killing became Matilda's savior at this time. She got

With sincerity, love and tenderness that she had never experienced before, she gradually escaped from indifference. The indifference and numbness accumulated in her heart were melted by the true feelings. Matilda experienced communication that she had never had before in her life.

, and this feeling of dependence has also shaken Leon's foundation for survival in this world (that is, his indifference).

Faced with love, Leon would lean against the wall powerlessly after going out. This invincible killer would only be injured when he killed someone. This kind of unethical love in the film shocked the indifferent audience. This mutual dependence became the basis for Leon and Ma

The most precious thing in Tilda's world is that when this socially unacceptable emotion is brought to the extreme, it creates the greatest tragedy of the film.

After Matilda revealed her feelings for Lyon to the hotel manager, there was an expected ending - the two were kicked out. On the surface, this is a weird love affair between adults and children that cannot be tolerated in the world.

, but I think what’s more important is that true love has been ruthlessly exiled in this society.

When Leon and Stan died together in the film, old Tony said GAME OVER to Matilda, ruthlessly telling the truth that the audience did not want to see - this kind of kindness cannot exist here. Care in this world

It can only be a monthly cash payment from Tony to Matilda.

At the end, Matilda left the city and came to a place where the architecture and environment were completely different from that city. Only this kind of escape could give herself the last glimmer of life. This helpless ending gave the film a quiet sense of hope.

Typed a line of ellipses.

Any work of art is a manifestation and pursuit of the real world by the creator. In the movie, there is the world they see and the world they dream about. In the film "Killer Leon", the creator tried his best to express a sinful world,

At the same time, it spares no effort to create the beauty and warmth of the love between Lyon and Matilda. In contrast, the film gives the audience a huge emotional shock.

As I said before, this is actually a story about two children, a girl and a boy. In their hearts, they are both 12 years old. They both feel lost and love each other deeply.

He is a so-called professional killer. In his spare time, he drinks water for his beloved plants, watches old movies alone, and giggles.

She is a so-called problem girl. When she is bored, she sits on the balcony, smokes a cigarette, and watches cartoons that her peers should watch.

They are all products of the cruelty of this world.

In Leon's world, he has nothing but killing, and he is lonely.

The same was true for Matilda before she met Leon. When she was in that home, it could be said that just as she said on the phone, "She is dead!"

So she is lonely too!

Two lonely souls meet by chance, so they will naturally get close to each other and warm each other!"
