After the boys got into an argument, one boy took a branch and wounded the other in the face, so the parents of both sides tried to solve the problem at the latter's home, and the conflict intensified. At the same time, however, the children who had been quarreling before were happily playing together again.
The scene of the film is fixed at the home of the beaten boy Ethan, and the contradictions of the four people are all shown by the actors using props and environments in this small space. The plot, in fact, is the development of the characters' emotions and conflicts. The overall trend is from the four people's harmony to the exhaustion of patience and then to the final outbreak. The film promotes the plot by showing the characters, and the characters are gradually full in the development of the plot. The story takes place between two couples and four individuals. At first, they seemed to be in harmony with each other, and they seemed to think about it to communicate and solve it. Then, because of the differences in individual values, conflicts began to be provoked and stimulated (such as hamsters, boys in groups). lead, etc.), and then with the help of alcohol, the whole crew breaks down and explodes.
The final outburst is natural and real, which in my opinion is absolutely human. I don't think any of them "pretend".
Nancy is a little woman who is enveloped by the elite and class. She has the qualities and etiquette in line with her identity and age. At the same time, she also likes cute animals, longs for her husband's company, and trusts and protects her son. But precisely because of this, her inner expectations and tenderness contradicted her real responsibilities and dissatisfaction, which led to a backlog of emotions, making her unable to control herself in a strange and slightly depressing environment.
Penelope's dogma of justice is deeply rooted in her heart, and she has the grand ideal of social care in her mind, but she lacks the worldly smoothness and the real so-called "detachment". She loves to do the things that "sages" often do, but they are not as great as saints. . From the very beginning with a smile of "tolerance", she emphasized that the other party should take responsibility, but she also unconsciously used this to push the responsibility of several parties away. She wanted to talk to the "violator". The correct values are instilled. And after drinking, even before that, when she emotionally "regrets" the album, she hides the selfishness behind "selflessness" in her heart. There will be no saints in the world, so what if you are selfish?
Ellen, "As soon as this man was born, he was worried, polite, and sorry, and you have to wait for the words to be thrown into the clouds." I have never seen such a person), it is true that he has an enviable career, but he is so impolite, so ignorant of others, so ignorant of respect for others, and even more so to his family and family outside his career. Education has no sense of responsibility... He has all the shortcomings from the perspective of a girl, but he has become the person with the least difference in the whole process.
Michael seems to be a typical peacemaker and a loving wife and good man. I believe he was really adjusting the atmosphere at the beginning, but unfortunately he doesn't seem to take problem solving seriously, but welcomes new guests. ; He is also sincerely trying to appease his wife, but unfortunately he also does not understand why his wife is angry (unable to understand and unwilling to observe). Life doesn't matter, work is done, and he doesn't care about the things his wife cherishes, but he can complain to his wife after a glass of wine. That kind of complaining is far better than the Allen family.
Although the four people are different, they all reveal their true feelings, politeness between strangers, whispering between lovers, unburdened catharsis after tearing their faces, etc., all of which rely on the actors to show it vividly in the same scene. Outsiders may think that the four are good and bad, but isn't everything just the fierce collision of each person's personality differences in a limited environment. This is a killing, a real, human "killing"
And the matter of who cares more about children, I think it may not be that important. The cellphones soaked in the water are intact, the hamsters discarded outdoors are full of vitality, and the slapstick children are playing together again... This kind of quarrel was originally a small conflict.
