I have never believed that suicidal people are vulnerable. They are probably the most unyielding category in the world. Life cannot be chosen, and death is the greatest freedom. This suicide sketch has a stubbornness from beginning to end, which warms the hearts of moviegoers.
Didn't say how sad Zia was for Desiree, just watched him quietly clean up the room, and then a blade told people all about it. Then Zia, Eugene, and Mikal, the little poisonous girl, set off on a road trip. Z is looking for D, M is looking for return, E is looking for nothing, oh maybe he is looking for Godot. In this world without a smile, the three people's mutual company is very warm. Quarrel, separation, all make people recall the world.
My expertise started harassing me again. Well, this film is postmodern. The process of their search is the real meaning, perseverance and never give up. It is true to say that it is dark, humorous, and warm. From time to time there are some bad jokes, like three people arguing about who should sit in the back seat, E put forward his theory: the person sitting in the back seat has no little brother. Asked about M, her answer was very interesting: yeah, I have a cock, big fat one. I was happy at the time, look, how comfortable people are. People are dead and still so comfortable. Which of us is comparable to them. I was not happy, and I didn't have the courage to wipe my neck. The warmth is more, Z is in M's early years, rescued her from the police, and the sea that the two of them found together. M once again made people feel that what a woman said was unreliable. She said that she would be back in five minutes and she would have no time to look back after she got the visa to go back. While Z was waiting pitifully there, I suddenly felt like crying.
E is one of the unfamiliar characters in the film, a little vulgar, but he embarked on an absurd journey for his friends, and accidentally met an Arctic girl, and even the fish in his hands began to be colorful. Later, M left, E and the North Pole girl also got on the train, and only Z remained.
Oh, and D, trap in King's beliefs, tried soul separation for him before his death, and still followed him without regrets after death, Z's search was meaningless in an instant.
If it ends here, then it explores the existential problems that have always been entangled in postmodernism, and falls into the cliché of loneliness and alienation.
It falls into the larger cliché, which is a warm ending. With the help of Kneller, Z fell back into the world unintentionally. When he woke up, he was in bed with M. They bit their lips and smiled at each other, without saying anything.
Perhaps, the opening theme Dead and lovely is very suitable to sum up the film's concept of death - death is desolate and sweet.
