    3.5 In the first half hour, the characters were absurd and disguised, and then they started to miss the passionate liberation years of the past little intellectuals step by step. The ending of a few supporting roles was too abrupt to usher in a new beginning in life. It's hard to tell if this is a euthanasia movie, tender brutality, cruel...

    I found that the best foreign language film at the Oscars is more like a film about family love. This film is completely interpreted in the Hollywood model. The film is quite satisfactory and a little too showy, but the details are perfect and the characters are...

    Too many "intrusions" and too many disputes. "All-purpose money", "Find the best heroin dealer in the police station to relieve the pain", "The mistresses of sincere friendship", "Friends who have changed their minds", "The last euthanasia", the changing times, the blending of cultures , a very tolerant and warm movie. The ending song is...

    Canada is really interesting, two languages, two cultures, and movies are clearly divided into two categories. Akon in French is more humane and quieter. Emotions are also quiet undercurrents. Two generations, two cultures, two...

    It's a really good and wise movie. What it wants to say is that there is a value or ideal that is irretrievably lost as civilization evolves, and in the film it is expressed through the conflict and fusion of father and son values ​​and lifestyles. The son is a typical pragmatist representative of the capitalist world, and money is paramount; while the father is a university professor with his own ideals and circle of friends. The theme of the film is very deep and it shows great ambition, but...

    Favorite places: At dusk, the father sits in a wheelchair watching the sparkling lake, and the son sits on the edge of the wooden chair not far behind. The father looked back and smiled, the son bowed his head and smiled wryly, the father's expression changed subtly. She turned her head and the lake was still the same, but she was suddenly lost. Later, in the video of her daughter, she said that she could not come back to see him for the last time when she went out to sea because he had...

    Known as the "Farewell Ceremony of Life", the film swept the awards ceremonies in the major film circles with its plain images and delicate emotions.

The Barbarian Invasions quotes

  • Rémy: I wish that one day you will have a son like you.

  • Rémy: [in French] Contrary to belief, the 20th century wasn't that bloody. It's agreed that wars caused 100 million deaths. Add 10 million for the Russian gulags. The Chinese camps, we'll never know, but say 20 million. So 130, 145 million dead. Not all that impressive. In the 16th century, the Spanish and Portuguese managed, without gas chambers or bombs, to slaughter 150 million Indians in Latin America. With axes! That's a lot of work, sister. Even if they had church support, it was an achievement. So much so tha the Dutch, English, French, and later Americans followed their lead and butchered another 50 million. 200 million dead in all! The greatest massacre in history took place right here. And not the tiniest holocaust museum. The history of mankind is a history of horrors.
