Since their father's death, the three brothers have been immersed in deep pain and regret. Under the arrangement of the eldest brother, the three brothers who have not been in contact for a long time dragged the large and small bags left by their father to escape their bad real life. , started a spiritual journey through the "religious museum" India.
The burden is always dragging on the train and the plane, and there are too many obsessions in my heart. Life is heavy. During the journey, the three brothers have their own concerns: the eldest brother set the hard-working eldest brother to be worried about his father's preference for his younger brother; the second brother, who is pessimistic about marriage, is anxious about the child who is about to be born; the explanation is the cover-up reality of the literary writer younger brother Now in a quagmire of lovelorn. Because they couldn't let go of the many regrets and absurdities of the day they said goodbye to their father, the three brothers had difficulty communicating with each other, and the travel was a mere formality and was full of embarrassment. Especially after learning that the elder brother arranged to visit his mother who was volunteering in the church without authorization, but was rejected by the mother, the brothers complained and puzzled that the mother did not attend the funeral of the father, and the atmosphere was almost freezing.
But trouble caused by a snake throws the eldest brother's journey plans out of control, and three brothers who have been driven off the train are involved in a rescue of a drowning child. The death of a child made the three brothers touch once again the powerlessness of people in the face of life and death. However, in the face of the pain of the deceased and the devotion to the farewell ceremony, the relatives of the children seem to give an outlet for the pain that the three brothers could not resolve: parting and death are the normal state of the world, and the trauma that they think is not understood is actually not. Lack of empathy. The pain of refusing to go out and not allowing others to approach is just a cage that you have buckled on top of your pain. Blessings and gratitude are the keys to getting out of the cage.
The three brothers' imprisoned hearts are freed by their mother's embrace and ritualized prayer, and the troubles in their lives seem to have turned a corner. The three brothers who were still chasing the train at the end of the shadow chose to abandon their father's package. Looking at the packages scattered on the ground getting farther and farther away, their heavy hearts relaxed. Only by throwing away their obsessions with the past can they break through the cold and lonely places in life. Embark on a journey that is as bitter as Darjeeling black tea...
I watched it because of the bright picture of the film and the expectation of the mysterious country of India. Director Wes Anderson's talent for using color is evident in this film, and even more so in The Grand Budapest Hotel. A heavy and sad story is presented in a "happy" and "funny" way through images full of fantasy and childishness and the pictures of trying to pretend to be the three male protagonists, as if it is a response to the unsatisfactory and difficult to grasp Life is full of attitude tribute. Using the picture to make up for the thinness of the script, a score of 7.5 is relatively pertinent.
