After watching it quietly by myself yesterday, I have always wondered why the movie is classified as a comedy? Isn't this funny at all?
Jon is actually a person with a different style and even personality from the band. Frank invited him to join the band. At first, I thought it was because Frank admired his creations, or because he was working hard for his dream but was not known and understood. Later, it was found that the more reason was that Frank wanted to meet more people with the same frequency through Jon, so that more people in the world like them could feel comfort. In my opinion, most of the film is reality and the band is ideal. Jon is a person who is free from reality and ideals. Frank is undoubtedly a warm-hearted genius, as can be seen from the fact that he persuaded the angry current tenants and let them leave happy and moved. Some of his eccentric behaviors and interesting ideas make him seem so out of tune with the world. In the eyes of most "normal people", it is the work of "eye-catching" neuropathy. How many normal people are there in the world? What is the definition of a normal person? Why do we so simply and rudely conclude that he, she, they are not normal?
Jon finally disappointed Frank. He sang his own songs at concerts, Frank's rare window of voice. Jon has been with the band for a year, but he still doesn't really understand them and thinks Frank is acknowledging his talent. Frank finally couldn't help calling his slobbering bad.
I kind of hate and pity Jon a little bit when Jon throws a tantrum at Frank and takes off his hood. Hate him for not understanding and respecting Frank, and stubbornly pulling him out of his own world; pity his initial little edge, which was eventually smoothed out by the world.
Jon became famous, but it wasn't the music that made them famous, it was the eccentric way of life.
It's a little surprising that Frank wasn't irritated or injured, just mentally ill. I love the line "mental illness is just holding him back".
And the other Don, I think his suicide shows that he has become the second Frank. Fortunately, Jon finally brought Frank back to the band, and J sent Frank back to his world. Jon didn't kill himself (probably he couldn't be another Frank like Don) and chose to leave.
When Frank without the hood sings I love you all, my tears can't stop falling, how happy and sad. They are not understood, but they still love the world warmly; they are so fragile, but they live so strong; they are eager to open themselves up for everyone to understand, but they are afraid of being laughed at.
So ah, we must know that some people are born different from most people, they are not in an uproar, they are not moaning, their souls are lonely but noble. Shhh! If we don't understand then don't bother them.
