Depression and the end of the world

Would you be scared, like Claire, if Melancholy hit the Earth? But she is not afraid, she said, anyway, we are born alone, and the world is originally evil...
She is a melancholic, she is unhappy, her feelings are fragile, but she is lonely and proud like a melancholic star, you think she has all kinds of neurotic behaviors All incomprehensible? She was actually struggling, and she didn't want to mess it all up, but the depression, the breakdown, and the melancholy approached her like a comet hitting the earth. She couldn't hold it anymore, she was just lonely, and she was not happy.
Nor is she a prophet, she just sees through, it seems that it is better to die if she has nothing to love; nor does she see through, she just doesn't care about other things, so when the end comes, she is so peaceful, she is not afraid of the end and not afraid of death, but she does not dare to face her heart, Those emotions that have nowhere to be placed, no one understands except yourself, it is better to die...
And Claire, she is restless, she is like a frightened horse and she runs around with her child just trying to find a safe place to stay, She even bought a bottle of sleeping pills to break with her family at the last minute; her sister was depressed, and she seemed to be paranoid, no, wouldn't we be just as panicked before the end? She was just too insecure. Insecurity disorder.
The end is coming, we at least have to be together, find a cave, and wait for the hailstorm and darkness to come... So, you're not happy, and the stars will fall?

Maybe you think the movie is just boring and don’t know what to do, maybe you think that the depression is just a fuss, or even the soundtrack is exaggerated and harsh, but you just can’t understand what a disaster is and what a psychological disaster is.

Depression and the end of the world.

    Lars-Von Trier’s "Melancholia" is the most interesting competition film I have seen in Cannes so far, mainly due to the rich interpretation space and path of the film: atheism, superego-id, and von Tier In his creation, the change from inward creation to outward expression, and so on. The beginning of the film is like a picture of Annie Leibovitz, which stuns people's appetite in surprise.

    Only the first ten minutes look good.

Melancholia quotes

  • Justine: I was just thinking - what if instead we try and sell you to the public, Jack? Well then, surprisingly, I'd arrive right back where I started from - at nothing.

    Tim: "Nothing." It's not such a bad tagline, Jack.

    Jack: Would my newly pledged A.D. please expand a little on her thoughts of the tagline?

    Justine: Nothing is too much for you, Jack. I hate you and your firm so deeply I couldn't find the words to describe it. You are a despicable power-hungry little man, Jack.

    Jack: Is that a resignation? Because they aren't too many jobs out there, I tell you.

  • Tim: The way I see it, you're now short of a boss and a husband, could I, in all humility, offer my services? You have the ideas. I have the head for business. We could be the perfect couple. We've had good sex.

    Justine: I don't think that's a very good idea.

    Tim: No. No.
