Looking at the name and posters, I thought it was a fragrant film, comparing young and old. Unexpectedly, most of the time in the whole film, there are two old faces, and the sluggishness of the old people on Fred's face is particularly obvious.
Comparing the two, I can see that Mick's disobedience to the old makes it logical for him to finally walk to the balcony. In fact, from the beginning of the film, what he has done is to give his own funeral, yes, not a posthumous work, yes funeral. Therefore, he hesitated for a long time in dealing with the ending of the work. He has experienced every chapter before, but in the end, he has not seen death. He thought and thought, thought about countless endings, but never thought that he would walk to the balcony.
Fred turned down the Queen's Envoy's invitation to perform at the beginning of the film, and at the end, he completed the performance. In between, what has changed? Melanie is gone. When Fred wanted to see her most, she left. Fred said he had no desire for life, so he dealt with it with that slowness and sluggishness. And the death that Mick chose because his passion for life was exhausted made him realize that he was still alive because he still had a desire, and that desire was something he hadn't said to Melanie.
People live by longing, Mr Q concluded after observing people in the hotel. Q is us in front of the screen, we watched everyone in the hotel, every scene. Retired football players live because of the desire to play, Lena lives because of the desire to love, Q lives because of the desire to be remembered, monks live because of the desire to float, children, young people, middle-aged, old people, because To live by desire, without desire, there is no fear.
A film that is artistic enough, but not dull, because apart from the occasional golden sentence and philosophy, there are many depictions of everyone, and the daily life and changes are treated equally, so that his original intention slowly emerges.
