      "Forth Syndrome" patients in and out of movies

      This is a very delicate film. Iceland in the Nordic countries has the same slowness and sensitive and delicate emotions as the Japanese island in the east. Although the two are quite different in terms of population, culture and region, the psychological emotions of the characters expressed in many films are very different. Similarity - loneliness, sensitivity, self-isolation, social avoidance and a series of increasingly aggravating psychological syndrome problems in modern life....

      I don't need you to understand my loneliness, and I don't need anyone to save me

            Loneliness, I believe everyone has experienced it personally. You can't see it, you can't grasp it, it's invisible but it's real. On a deserted street in the middle of the night, on a bored Sunday, or even in a cheering crowd, we can always feel the presence of loneliness.

            "The Mountain of the Virgin" shows us another way of deducing loneliness.

            Fúsi is an Icelandic film. When you mention Iceland, what is the first thing that comes to your mind? Nordic...

      brief tenderness

      Ps: Writing a film review is more active than writing a paper. Recently, I have a great desire to express myself. Maybe I used to talk too much, and I finished speaking, so I don’t have much to write about. Recently, my thoughts are all spinning in my head. Why only one plug, either to the heater or to the computer, then endure the cold and use the computer.

      I watched "Fusi" just because I wanted to see a love movie, Nordic style.

      I was very moved when...

      "I used to be as strong as Eddie Peng" Now this sentence is just a joke to make others laugh

      10 years ago, I was a very strong and fast young man. I despised all fat people. I despised only one reason for being lazy. But 10 years later, because of my illness, I found out that being fat is not just laziness. There are many reasons, such as being sick and unable to exercise, so I have to eat.... I told many people that I was like Peng Yuyan 5 years ago, and everyone else is hehe, they I thought I was telling a joke, I knew it was true, but I knew that no one would believe it, so I...

      Every otaku is a moon.

      The movie is about the daily life and love of a dead fat otaku. Indifferent face, soft heart. Even if it is a little fire of hope, there is no turning back, no matter how humble, at least I have loved. But who wants to really understand the gentle and restrained heart beneath the dull exterior? Bullied, misunderstood, alienated and forgiven, he doesn't say a word. He doesn't smile. Don't cry.

      Looking helpless and heartbroken. Keep asking yourself, if you have a dead fat man like...

      Some people say it's a bitter love story of a poor fat man, but I think it's a heartwarming story. You think the fat house is bitter, but in fact he is just lonely, his life is firm, simple, and full of hobbies. The spiritual world does not know how rich it is. This is a story about warmth. The appearance of the girl not only broke his place and gave him love, but also led him out of his own world, dared to change, and went to see the bigger world, and he was willing. This kind of change is...

    Movie plot

    The film mainly tells the story of Foss (Gunner Janssen) , a single dog who has passed his old age. He is an ugly fat man who works as a luggage porter in the airport grounds department. Living together, his few hobbies were fiddling with World War II battlefield sandbox models and listening to heavy metal music. He had few friends, and the one or two who remained social were connected by these eccentric hobbies. He is kind and timid,...

    Evaluation action

    As an Icelandic film, every detail of the film naturally permeates the cold and alienated temperament that is unique to Northern Europe. The cold mood and this lonely story are mutually blessed. An opening shot lays out the director's ambitions beautifully. Under the bird's-eye view, on the empty runway of the airport, the luggage transporting car passed slowly in circles, silently, and the light was clear and sprinkled on the ground....
