Chapter 31 Turin (8)

It still snowed the next day.Snowflakes fall on the streets and alleys, quiet and beautiful.

Xie Lansheng and Xinye left the hotel early to visit Turin.During the film festival, they screened films and participated in activities. They never had an idle day. Now they can finally see this beautiful city.

The two first boarded the Antonelliana, and inside the spire is the Italian National Film Museum.Because he was going back to China tonight, Xie Lansheng wanted to hurry up and read the important things first.

As soon as he entered the steeple, Xie Lansheng was attracted by the museum.Large display screens are everywhere, and the display screens are surrounded by classic props and classic scenes.Xie Lansheng only felt familiar with the movie soundtrack playing in the lobby.

This museum has five floors and is very large.The first floor shows the principle of filming, and introduces the history of Italian film and the history of film all over the world in detail.It starts from the principles of optics, camera and photography, and uses generations of cameras, processors and projectors to show the development of movies.The entire exhibition hall is full of machines, some of which are very precious - Xie Lansheng saw Chaplin's film samples in the "Silent Film" area.

The third floor of the museum is the exhibition hall of classic movies.Going up the circular staircase, Xie Lansheng found that both sides of the stairs were full of original posters of classic movies. He saw "Gone with the Wind" and "Star Wars"... and also saw the actor's photo wall.

There are dozens of neatly arranged red reclining chairs in the lobby on the third floor, and "Gone with the Wind" is being shown on the big screen at this time.There are also several small halls on both sides of the hall with specific themes. Xie Lansheng went to have a look and felt that it was okay, so he decided to visit the fourth and fifth floors first, and concentrate on tasting after returning.

On the fourth floor, there is a poster hall and a prop hall, the latter of which is a collection of precious props.There was a lot of tourists in one area, and Xie Lansheng drilled in and found that Monroe's black underwear and her makeup tools were on display in this area.Xie Lansheng sighed, this is the sexiest person in the world, but Xie Lansheng also remembered what the director of "Comet Beauty" said, "She is the loneliest person in the world." There are many other movie props in this museum, such as The white robe of "Lawrence".Completely different from others, Xie Lansheng observed carefully in front of each booth.

The fifth floor is the film production hall.It is an interactive area where tourists can realize their dreams of being an "actor", captured by cameras, filmed, made with effects, and projected on the big screen.

Xie Lansheng only felt that he was also in the movie world.

Holding on to the handrail, I returned to the third floor, and "Gone with the Wind" had just finished broadcasting.Xie Lansheng had watched this movie many times at Nortel, so he didn't stop there, but went directly to the small exhibition halls on the left and right sides of the hall.

The last hall is very different.

People have to lie down and watch movies.

The perfectly round "bed" is the innermost one, which is red and soft.The undulating and undulating red bed curtain hangs straight down and is also rounded to cover the inside, very beautiful.And if tourists reach out to pick up the red bed curtain, they will find that this bed curtain is actually a blackout curtain-inside it, a large circular screen is playing the movie theme.The large screen is nailed to the ceiling, which is the same size and shape as the bed below, and is round, so tourists can see it from their backs, and because they can be temporarily "isolated" from the outside world when watching it under the bed curtain, they are completely in the movie world middle.Xie Lansheng can understand the design intention of these small exhibition halls - to tell people that they can watch movies anytime.This exhibition hall is for lying down, and there are many other postures in the previous exhibition halls.

Maybe because of the snow today, there were only Xie Lansheng and Xin Ye in the whole hall.

Xie Lansheng said, "Go in and have a look?"

Xin Ye nodded.

Xie Lansheng got in.

The height of the red bed curtain was only half of the whole room, and it didn't hang down to the bed. Therefore, although Mr. Xie Lan was lying on the bed, his knees were stretched out, his calves stood upright, his feet stepped on the ground, and he didn't take off his shoes.He and Xinye sleep at a 60-degree angle, one looks at the screen from the left, the other looks from the right, the hair of the two is lightly touching, Xinye's is shorter, Xie Lansheng's is longer, Xinye's is harder, Xie Lansheng's is softer .Xin Yeren was tall and long-legged, with one calf propped on the ground, his left foot resting on his right knee, and his movements were casual and a little lazy.

Xie Lansheng opened his eyes wide under the bed curtain and said, "Xin Ye, it's started."

Xinye responded casually, "Yes."

The movie theme for this day in the showroom turned out to be... Kiss.

It has made a collection of classic kiss scenes from world-famous movies.

Xie Lansheng's breathing became rapid.

He is still so hypocritical - when the first kissing scene was projected on the screen, Xie Lansheng burst into tears.

"Casablanca."

The only kiss in the whole film.

Ingrid Bergman is so beautiful in this film that people feel that if she can give a kiss, she will go through fire and water.

She plays Ilsa who sees Rick again in Casablanca and can't help herself.At this time, World War II was in the middle of the war, and Germany's iron heels broke through Europe, and Rick had a transit permit to the United States in his hand. Ilsa decided to break up with her husband, so she went to the bar to find Rick and told him that she wanted to be with him.The two of them agreed that they would stay here and let Victor, the anti-Nazi leader's husband, use a transit permit to escape to the United States.

The two of them are kissing here. Ilsa said, I hope Rick can feel that he is always in love with him, "HowmuchIstillyou."

Xie Lansheng watched from the bed, tears were like beads.He remembered the line in the film: "There are so many cafes in the world, but you just want to walk into this one."

Unlike mere tourists, as a film director he knows the ending of the film - Rick is lying, he knows how important Ilsa is to Victor, he cannot let the anti-Nazi leader lose his wife because of his love, they need to win the war, Only, Ilsa won't go to America without lying first.In the last 5 minutes of the movie, Rick, who only had a transit pass, tricked the sheriff into the police station, pointing at the gun with a black hole, and asked the other party to arrange a plane.He let Ilsa leave with her husband, looked at her so affectionately, and said, "We all know that you belong to Victor. You are Victor's spiritual support. If the plane leaves here and you are not on the plane, you will regret it. Maybe not Today, maybe not tomorrow, but it will be someday, and I will regret it for the rest of my life." Facing Ilsa's question "What about us", Rick's answer is "We always have Paris, we regained it last night." Ilsa Accompanied her husband on the plane, while Rick shot and killed the German colonel who was chasing him. He took on everything alone and watched the person he loved the most in his life go to freedom.

A love in the midst of war.And the reason why it can become the most classic love movie is because the hero and heroine did not choose love.As a 1942 film, its logic is that freedom is above love above everything else.

The second scene of this collection is "The Blue Bridge of Souls". Vivien Leigh's beauty in this film can also travel through a long time.

Robert and Myra fall in love.After the grand ball, Myra found that Robert had been waiting in the rain all night, and immediately ran into the courtyard, so there was "kissing in the rain", which was extremely affectionate.

Xie Lansheng's tears became more and more turbulent. He knew that the plot took a turn for the worse after that—Robert was suddenly sent to the battlefield. Myra worried that it would be the last time. She ignored the rules of her ballet company and went to the station to see her off. However, she did not expect the ballet company to expel her permanently. Myra was unable to find a new job during the years of war, and learned that Robert had died in battle, suffered a series of blows, and fell ill. Only a few months later, Myra discovered that her friend was working as a prostitute to take care of herself. Of course Myra couldn't feel at ease, so the beautiful Myra also became a prostitute.

At the end of the film, Robert came back. It turned out that he was only captured and did not die. But looking at Robert and his parents, Myra still couldn't let the "disgraceful" past bring shame to the Robert family. One night, telling the truth to Robert's mother, he jumped off the bridge.

There is a last resort of the times.

Xie Lansheng remembered that Nortel teacher Wang Xianjin said that all those who can watch this film without crying are hard-hearted.

The third scene in the collection is "Roman Holiday".

The princess played by Audrey Hepburn hugged and kissed Joe, turned and left, ending her life as a "commoner" for the day and going back to continue her duties.This kiss is lingering, full of cherishment and reluctance.

Xie Lansheng also knew the ending-the loved ones met again at the princess' press conference, but they couldn't speak, so they could only bid farewell silently, ending their one-day love.

The classic kisses were shown one by one in the collection, and Xie Lansheng wept silently.Because of his posture, his tears flowed from the corners of his eyes to his black hair, and then disappeared.

He will guess which other movie clips may appear, and then, as long as he thinks there should be, all of them will appear later.

All kinds of kisses, all kinds of love.

Xie Lansheng couldn't take his eyes off it.

The last kissing scene was last year's "Human and Ghost Love".

In the last scene of the film, Carl is pierced through the chest by glass, and Sam, the boy who turned into a ghost due to a car accident, protects Molly, fulfills his wish, and is about to go to heaven. Molly finally saw Sam, and she cried and exchanged unreal kisses with Sam, the background music was the classic "Unchained Melody".

After the whole short film was played, Xie Lansheng was still immersed in it, a little dazed and a little dazed.He was still crying silently, even his hair was wet, because he was lying on his back and crying, he had difficulty breathing and was twitching.

However, between being dazed and in a daze, he heard Xinye's voice: "Hey...don't cry."

Xie Lansheng looked intently, and found that Xin Ye was standing on top of him at some point, looking at him tenderly.

Xie Lansheng couldn't speak, so he twitched again.

Xin Ye chuckled lightly.Standing on the ground, he was tall and had long legs, holding Xie Lansheng's knee between his knees, propped one hand next to Xie Lansheng's left ear, and gently wiped away his tears with the thumb of the other hand, from the corner of his eye to the temple.Then he switched hands and carefully wiped away the tears on the other side.

Xie Lansheng looked into his eyes, a little dazed.I don't know what's going on, Xinye's eyes at this moment overlap with those in the movie just now, making people addicted, the word "tenderness" appeared in Xie Lansheng's brain for no reason.

"Okay." Xinye stretched out his hands, and Xie Lansheng didn't think too much, so he put his two hands in the other's palm, and was grabbed by Xinye and pulled up from the bed.

"Ha...huh!!!" Xie Lansheng also felt that he had been hypocritical for ten years, so he let out a few breaths, wiped his face dry with the palm of his hand, and wiped his hair with his sleeves. Putting on his overcoat, he said, "Xin Ye, let's go to the top of the tower! Only the top of the tower hasn't gone yet!"

Xinye looked at him and nodded: "Let's go."

The Antonelliana minaret is 167.5 meters high, and you can take the elevator directly to the first floor of the museum.From the top of the tower, people can see the panorama of Turin and the Alps.

They went up all the way, Xie Lansheng still felt a little overweight, and felt dizzy—he had never taken an elevator at this speed in China.

At the top of the tower, the sky is still snowing.One after another, slowly falling.It may be because of this reason that there are not many tourists on the top of the tower, and one side is even empty, so Xie Lansheng walked over.

He walked to the railing, put his wrist on the railing, squinted his eyes, looked at this European city blurred in the light snow, and sighed softly.

Seeing that Xie Lansheng hadn't spoken at the beginning, Xin Ye stood beside him, put his forearm on the railing, and watched the snow scene with him.The height of the balustrade at the top of the tower was designed to reach Xie Lansheng's waist. Xie Lansheng could stand straight, but Xin Ye had to bow slightly.

After a while, Xin Ye asked, "Still thinking about that collection?"

"Hmm... I can't get out of it." Xie Lansheng's eyes drifted away, "Kissing the lips... so beautiful." A pair of lovers seek each other, so beautiful.

Xinye didn't speak.

"Xinye," Xie Lansheng changed his posture, facing Xinye, with one elbow resting on the railing, while the other hand was put down. He didn't look at Xinye, and his face was still facing the snowy scenery outside. He asked in a tone of envy. "Have you ever kissed someone else?"

Hearing this question, Xin Ye let out a breathy laugh: "No."

"……what???"

Xie Lansheng couldn't believe it.

Normally speaking, Xin Ye grew up in Los Angeles, so he should be very open... Moreover, he is handsome and rich, and he really doesn't seem to be inexperienced.

While thinking, he turned his head back and looked at Xinye face to face, thinking, these eyelashes are really long, the bridge of the nose is so straight, the lips are so thin, and the curve of the jaw is so beautiful.

Realizing that the other party was looking at him, Xin Ye put his hands in his pockets, and turned to look at Xie Lansheng: "Is it weird? I don't like it. It's boring." He is indeed always confessed. Chinese friends are not without envy, and often exaggerate. : "Yves, is there something wrong with you? There are so many beautiful white girls in school who take the initiative to confess, but you are not interested?!"

Xin Ye was really not interested, he just felt that they were all the same, although he knew very well that many people were envious of him.Before he met Xie Lan, he never knew that he would have such a deep desire and such a strong desire for a person.

"Well, I haven't met someone I really like." Xie Lansheng looked at the city outside the tower again, and sighed, "Hey... I was thinking about watching the movie just now... What does it feel like to kiss? Watch a movie I can't see... Is it really so unforgettable? I kind of hope that one day in the future... I can also... kiss the person I love like that." It's so tender and lingering.Xie Lansheng's eyes drifted away, and his words were almost inaudible at the end, with some obvious envy, longing, and longing in his tone.

Xin Ye was facing Xie Lansheng, so he looked down at his eyes for a moment, and said for a while, "There will be."

"Huh?" Xie Lansheng also turned his neck back, looked at Xin Ye, and held the railing with one hand: "What?"

"There will be." While speaking, Xinye looked down slowly, looking at Xie Lansheng's slightly parted lips.The lip color is red, beautiful, and moist. There is a bead on the upper lip, and the shape of the lower lip is very full, like a peach, as if you can bite water.

"Really..." Xie Lansheng didn't dare to count on it.The neighbors who always wanted to introduce him to someone before didn't mention it anymore.

"Really." In the snow scene of Turin, Xin Ye stared down and took out his right hand from his pocket.He held Xie Lansheng's cheeks with his long fingers, rubbed his lower lip with his thumb, from the middle to the corner of his mouth, repeated over and over again: "There will be."

Xie Lansheng: "...ah." In the snow, Xinye's fingers were warm.

His lips felt very strange, like being stung by a swarm of bees, numb and itchy, his lips trembled, and then, as if bewitched, he looked at Xin Ye's lips through the snow.

Two thin slices, perfectly shaped, very sexy, very attractive.

Xie Lansheng: "..."

But at this time, those two lips opened again, and the voice was magnetic as always: "Lan Sheng, there will be someone who... loves you, cherishes you, and respects you."

Xie Lansheng was short of breath.

But Xin Ye continued: "This person will cherish your face, suck your lips, move your tongue, explore your throat...to absorb your taste..."

I don't know what's going on, but when Xinye looked at him with this kind of eyes, spoke with this kind of voice, and caressed him with this kind of movement, Xie Lansheng suddenly felt an electric current rushing through his whole body, and quickly held Xinye's wrist to pretend Tsukuru flung it away without incident, then bit his lower lip, biting quite a bit, hid his entire lower lip, and secretly exerted force, hoping to get rid of the itching, and then faced the outside of the steeple again, and he got better after a while, Said, "I hope so."

However, although he said "I hope so", Xie Lansheng was quite strange: Is Xinye's Chinese not good enough?Why is someone else kissing me?Didn't I kiss her?
