徘徊

说起这部电影我真的要说超杀女能如此安静，这转型真的有点吓了一跳，表现很出色，而且为了演好这个角色专门学习了大提琴真的是很用心的演员。
电影其实没有什么大的看头，最大的噱头在前文也已经说过了。抛开生死设定就是纯纯的纯爱青春片，故事一切显得那么平淡，那么简单。利用生死和女主人公的情感起伏来推动电影的发展主，人公的领悟与主人公死后魂魄不散的回忆想结合一点点的前进慢慢懂得了生活的真谛，然后就没有然后来。
电影的画面唯美整体给人的感觉很清新，很干净，就连出车祸的场景中也是如此。故事台词和场景设计给人感觉到爱情的那种单纯地味道，故事推动的发展比较贴近人们的生活，有种感觉这样的类似的内容就在我的身边带一些共鸣感，值得去试一试。
电影是一部音乐很用心的电影，不多赘述，直接找原声听就好，民谣，平静，欢快，简答，音乐给我的感觉。
一句话说感受：妹子看看吧！

这部影片用灵魂来讲述“选择”这个话题，很是值得一看。片中米娅一直都在回忆从前生活的点滴，以决定去留，许许多多的回忆以及亲人、闺密、男友在她病床前的言语，时时刻刻左右着她的想法。还好，最终爱情战胜了逃避，她男友的话让她下了决定，she stay !
不得不说，语言真是一把威力无穷的武器。言者无意，听者有心，闻者足戒！

1. 那个我喜欢的乐队

刚开始看这部电影的时候，被吸引的整个都是那个乐队。想到了自己喜欢一个乐队的心情。不是多么有名的乐队，但就是喜欢他们，想要追着他们，看着他们越来越成长的时候却又有些不甘心，就像自己心爱的东西不得不跟别人分享。觉得「能有一个玩儿音乐的男朋友真好啊」之类的。一起疯一起叫，那种心情大概不追乐队的人是体会不了的吧。

想象着有一天我也可以跨越海洋去看他们的表演，live完一起庆功宴，新年一起party，也许跟其中的几个人成为好朋友。只是普通人的自己和只是普通人的乐队的他们，应该也没有那么大的差别吧。

只有当他们站在舞台上的时候。

乐队站在舞台上的时候总是闪闪发光的。绚丽的灯光，台下人的尖叫。当他们站在台上的时候又变得那么触不可及。

但我还是想要一个玩儿音乐的男朋友。他们会为你写歌，他们会在live的时候只看着你的眼睛，他们会在庆功宴的时候也带你去。

追着乐队的你，一定知道我在说什么。


2. Sacrifice. That's what we do for the people that we love.

- I've been trying to think of what Denny would want me to say to you. The kid was a helluva of dad, wasn't he? He sure had me beat. I remember the day that he quit the band. He just up and said, "That's it. The time has come." I was surprised. I never really liked the way the band sounded, but I knew how important it was to him. And so I asked him, I said, "Why are you quitting?" And he said, "You make sacrifices for your kids." "For your kids." He said that without even blinking. That's why he quit the band.

- For Teddy.

- For you. It was when he heard you play so well. I think that's when it clicked for him. Your incredible talent, it... He just couldn't believe it. And all he want to do was to give you more. So, he quit the band, he sold his drum kit and he bought you that cello. Sacrifice. That's what we do for the people that we love.
  And here's mine, Mia. I want you to live. I want that more than anything in this world. I want you to fight like hell to stay with us. But, with everybody else gone, I know it might not be what you want. It might be too hard for you to keep fighting, so... If you wanna go, I want you to know it's okay. It's okay. I understand.

我总也不知道明天会是何种境况，难道仅仅是我们口中那些无聊的反复吗？你或许想过，你以何种态度去面对的时候，它同样回馈你的是绝不会是太过于糟糕的。
从未想过有一天灾难降临的那样迅疾和毫不留情，一场车祸可以夺取那曾经鲜活过的璀璨的生命，在刹那间变得奄奄一息灰蒙蒙。眼睛紧闭，唇苍白的轻合着，呼吸，心跳都变得羸弱不堪。也许只剩下意志支撑着活下去。如果我留下，如果你要走，全是自己的选择。回想起生活里的点滴，家人的温暖，恋人的甜蜜，朋友的慷慨，还有自己的梦想与苦难。
关于大提琴与吉他的相遇，那是怦然心动的难以忘怀的美丽的爱情。当一颗躁动的舞台的狂放的摇滚青年在一门之隔被那大提琴传来的沉稳而隐藏的深情呼告吸引驻足时，当他眼中映入那个微闭双眼的投入的金发女孩时，心也一并被那女孩掳走了。那种沉静的温柔是种让人放下所有戒备和不安的想望，那一刻，他知道他一直在等她，因而真正见到的时候，他一眼便认出，那就是她。嘿，是你。既是欢喜心动的，也是踏实舒畅的。传统保守的大提琴总是把自己抑制的像一潭不起波澜的湖水，蓝蓝的沉郁，在演奏中也是把琴弦当做命弦一般紧紧把握着，张弛有力，不容分毫的瑕疵。那个有着洁白的面孔和一头不羁的鬈发的男孩也是让自己更想触及的，那眼睛里满是忧郁感的深情，真挚的想拥入怀里。
吉他有他的狂放不羁，当然也会那般柔情，大提琴有她的沉稳执着，当然也会那般激情，即便两人是有不同的音乐取向，但同样是他们互相吸引的地方。爱从来不是被习惯和爱好所界开的，我爱的就是你，无论你的衣装与头发的颜色，你在我心里始终是被我深深爱着，我们彼此了解到那一点就已足够。没有一对相处的情侣能够避免争执，也在争执的过程中相互伤害，因为我们是在生活，不存在乌托邦的理想国，柏拉图的爱情也只是假设中所呈现的。回归生活现实，这本来就是充斥着杂琐与不幸的真实的世界，无人可以摆脱，需要面对它战胜它，所以我们会觉得苦了，痛了，消磨了激情与忍耐力。我也开始怀疑我活下去的生命里是有着多少幸福的。
没有什么比失去家人更能击溃一个人的思想意志了，那血液里流淌着的同根同脉的亲情是冬日里最温暖的火光。当这火光突然熄灭，突然有那么一刻会觉得这火光是遍世界也再难以寻到了，它再也不会亮在女孩的面前。她所习惯并安享的那个家庭已经消失了，自己又该何去何从呢，留下来还是要和家人去那一边团圆呢，可以肯定的是如果她离开她是不会孤单的。然而留下，醒来后的这个真实的世界又该如何面对呢？
爱人，梦想，凡是能够让自己留恋人世的牵连也是让自己有力量活下来的。尽管也让自己痛苦的爱情就像玫瑰一样鲜艳和强有力，当亚当弹唱起他为米娅写的歌，她也不顾一切的留下来了。睁开眼，她还有亚当，还有她的大提琴，生活里总是有让我们欢喜的东西存在着，就看你怎么去寻找出来把它在生命里更好的张扬和强化。你会发现，原来自己可以这么幸福。
   发现《如果我留下》和《八月迷情》里的男女主人公都是吉他与大提琴的邂逅，我想这并不是偶然的巧合。美国本来就是一个开放的兼容的国家，我想电影元素里的这两个呈现应该就是传统与现代的完美交融吧，同样的对生命的崇尚与思考，选择，都让这个国家充满那么多色彩。

We, grown-ups, seems to be stubbornly convinced that young adult stories are stupid, and only teenagers themselves will be silly enough to fall in love with this kind of "so-called" romantic novels.
For that we already knew the transitory characteristic of love. We understand it, crystal clear, right from the beginning of the film that their love story might not even live through the winter, they are not going to survive the long distance after high school, not to mention that the post-traumatic stress our heroine must deal with as long as she wake up after the car accident(, though this is the story in its sequel 'Where She Went'). We know that, time itself might bring an end to the relationship between this young man and this young woman.

But, is it not the most beautiful part of every teenager love story, or of puberty? What make those young children, those teenager boys and girls so attracting is that they take their pure love, their approaching departure, their breakup as this important that their hearts are tortured by whips for thousands of times. The pain is all that matters, that hurts, that suffocates, and they think they will never get through this. They struggle, they quarrel, they cry, they reconcile with each other, as love and pain remains the only theme of their adolescence.

They do not know now, but they will understand it one day, that all these love and pain, joy and suffering will become a memory with bitter sweets or even a memory with no colour, a memory that brings back no sensation. However, this never counteract the real experience they are right now undergoing. All these hurts, all these emotions, all these tears are once so real, that almost break their hearts or already broke them. They live in drama, not because they are affected, but their lives are filled with dramatic conflicts.

Not until the puberty ends, along with the death of drama, will these whole true life-play come to a termination.
Then, teenage love, which is so void but sincere, dies alongside with it.
