Text/Manga Two films about old women have French elements, so put them together and write about them. One is the French comedy film "Delicious Poisonous Woman". I now think that the difference between comedy and tragedy is not far. Regardless of comedy and tragedy, conflict is used to promote the relationship and storyline of the characters and give a result. The so-called comedy is nothing but There are some jokes in the process, and everyone is happy at the end; and tragedy is to create some sad or frightening contradictions from beginning to end, and finally let people see brokenness or despair. Or in other words, comedy is a band-aid for this cruel world, and tragedy is a band-aid for this world. "Delicious and Poisonous Woman" is about an old woman in her 60s. Her husband died, and her shop was resold because of poor management. She could only rely on Weibo social relief funds. It said that she was 600 yuan for a living. , Even 600 euros is certainly not high in a country like France. Shiruobao's daughter married a black man and gave birth to a black baby. As long as the skin color of black people is annoying to her, she is always very unhappy. This relief fund is not enough to pay the rent, can not buy some decent furniture, and her embarrassed and busy daughter often has to give her little black grandson to help her with it, so she is very annoying all day, no Talk to anyone in a good mood, because everyday livelihood is a big problem. She often goes to the trash can to look through the things that are still usable, such as flowers thrown away by others-for her husband to use when they go to the grave, a broken table lamp-finally counts as furniture, even a buckle The garlic can even be grabbed by illegal means with another old woman-after all, is it an edible dish? Even the rent has not been paid for a few months, and the utility bills are still owed. Until the furniture company came to take all the furniture away, until the family was surrounded, it made people feel like she had gone to a stranger. Just like this, an old lady who might be swept on the street one day with no fixed place, was called a trash mother-in-law. One day, I found out that a group of small gangsters around had a good income. It turned out to be a good income from selling marijuana, which can even reach hundreds of thousands a month. So the old lady was moved. After a comical trouble, she was able to get from drug dealers. I got marijuana to help sell it. It turned out to be very smooth and sold well. I also got quite a lot of benefits from the 19% share. Later, because of accidental mixing of marijuana when making cakes, the cake sales were very good. The income is far more than pure barley sales, so she has a group of old ladies and friends who are in the same trouble to help them in the hemp cake business. It was so popular that she suddenly became a nouveau riche. Of course, when people become rich, they are also proud There are too many, so she is also more generous to her daughter, son-in-law and grandson, and her attitude is much better. Of course, as a correction of values, this group of poisonous old ladies must be brought to justice in a fair manner. And Bright Tail is because she has a wide audience of marijuana, she helped them out, and because she was too old, she was finally released on probation. So the aunts were inspired to legally open the cannabis cake shop to Amsterdam, the Netherlands. So this movie is defined as a black comedy because of the seemingly interesting but sad process, because of a bright tail. But in fact, the struggle of poverty after getting old, no matter which country it is, it really abounds. It’s easy to see old ladies constantly bargaining with vegetable vendors in order to save a dime in the food market. The supermarket said that there are any free gifts or reduced prices (mostly expired products). The team, as for the old lady who was reluctant to spend a dollar to buy a meat bun after walking ten miles in the countryside, he never listened less, and the old people who had their children patched on their clothes and even their eyes were almost blind, and the children who were hunched on the ground and working in the field were missing. It’s not a story. In modern society, there are still stories about the poverty of the 19th-century Swiss movie "Heidi and Grandpa." The same brown bread, such a story is still being staged today. Even if they are all poor, the advantage of being young is that they can always try hard, after all, they still have physical strength, and the sorrow of old age is unintentional and powerless, only slowly waiting for the light of life to gradually extinguish. In fact, being old is not a terrible thing, but being old and poor. It is really terrible and sad. The same old woman, the same close to 60 years old or older, what if she is not poor? That is, the other co-produced by France and Holland is not a black comedy, but a black thriller film "Her Elle". Although this woman is the same old, her husband is divorced, and her son is very hopeless. The daughter-in-law she found made her dissatisfied with 10,000. The so-called grandson turned out to be a black and his stupid son even liked to be a father. Her father was a perverted murderer. She was notorious for killing dozens of people and still staying in jail, and her reputation as an accomplice has been alive since she was a child. Her mother is an unconcerned old goblin who has a face-lift and madness. Thirty-year-old young man got married. She was spoofed by unknown people in the company to ruin her reputation, and she was raped by thugs who broke in at this age. It should be equally unfortunate. If this situation is replaced by another old woman, this day is really bad and chaotic. But she is not ordinary People, she is a woman with a steel-like will, she controls a promising game company, those creative designers young people must lie to her and flatter her. Although she is equally old, her wealth, as well as the resulting social status, still produces energy that everyone around cannot underestimate, even her already mature son is reaching out to her. When she asked for money and when she was criticized and criticized, she still remained silent; the grievance and loss of talent when the ex-husband, who is no longer admired by others, was ignored by the little lover, and will still vaguely ask her for help, whether he is ex-husband or son. , She used her ability to give them a new job opportunity whenever she was merciful; she was sixty years old and she was still pursuing her. The husband of her best friend wanted to beg her many times, and the younger one next door had a lot of career The noble neighbor husband also seemed to be seduced by her; it was easy to deal with the reputation crisis in his own company and to teach the initiators a lesson. But the experience of being raped by a mob of course gave her life a huge shadow. She didn't even go to the police because she felt that it was useless. She handled the matter in her own way, cleverly and very neatly, and the result was that satisfying. Unexpected pervert raper. This is really a terribly tough woman, an old woman, a wealthy old woman, not only has the energy brought by money, but also has the energy brought by will, so she still looks extremely sexy. There are no good people and bad people in this movie, just two old women in the ordinary sense, no high-style sentiment, just fighting for their own survival, such people are the general public in our world, so they are true Sex is very touching. Although the situation of the two old French women is completely different, money does have its immense magic power. It can change people's living environment, adjust people's mood and spirit, and thus change the whole life state. Money does make people sexy, no matter what age, the superiority and posture produced in the bones make people refreshed and charming. The most realistic example is of course the wedding queen Vivi, who is still in her sixties and can still be fallen in love with a handsome sexy guy who is less than thirty. Of course, the so-called temperament charm is the foundation, but the confidence and energy brought by money cannot be ignored at all. Think of those people who have money today, the pride and self-righteous sexiness in their bones are counted. It's just that how to obtain wealth, legally and illegally, with some possible exchange price, conforming to one's own desires or against one's own aspirations, is actually a big social issue discussed in other disciplines. Disease, aging and poverty are the most terrible since ancient times The three elements. If there is only one of them, it is not terrible, the most terrifying is that there are two coexisting or all three, then it is really the most terrifying horror film in the world. Even if young people have nothing, they can still have a future, so they can be proud and confident, because they still have a strong heart. As for the elderly, as the setting sun is falling, they are indeed helpless and start to see where the door to their end is. The so-called good or bad depends on the foundation laid on the road before life, and it is extremely difficult to return to the sky and reverse the plot. People like Chu Shijian who can start a business in their 70s are still the ones who have laid a solid social foundation in the previous decades. They are not a thunderstorm. Chen Peisi is still the same. After more than a decade of silence, he is still making a comeback. The same reputation is still due to the foundation of culture and wealth he has laid before. Not all old men and women can grow flowers, plant grass, practice Tai Chi and jump in the square when they are old, nor can they travel around the world to see the scenery and enrich their lives. So in other words, what kind of old age they want to live It depends on how you lay the foundation for yourself when you were young. So one day, aging will inevitably come, is it terrible? It also seems pretty scary. But before you come, there is still time to prepare and let yourself be a little more calm, right?
