Why did the man named Ove finally decide not to die?
I think the turning point of it all was when Parwani said "No one can do it all alone."
The beginning of the story shows us a rather vivid image of the old man. For fifty yuan a bunch of flowers, seventy yuan can buy two bouquets, why can't I buy one for thirty-five yuan? Don't you think, as long as I think, but the old man finally bought two bouquets of flowers for 70 yuan.
People who may not understand him will find him stubborn and hateful, and after understanding him, he can only helplessly laugh old-fashioned and cute.
You can see that he is paranoid, rigidly maintaining his original shape: patrolling the streets every day, scolding people, cars and dogs, responding to requests, and dealing with violations. For more than 40 years, I have always been in love with Saab. But he couldn't understand it, and he didn't bother to understand computer digitization, reversing cameras, and contempt for the new generation of idiots who only eat when they encounter things. Like a puzzle piece that cannot be put into society, the shape is difficult to break in.
But why can't it be annoying? In addition to the sense of humor that covers almost all the laughs, there is also Ove's kindness from the heart. All the requests were rejected at once, then scolded, and finally glared at him, and then he did it without saying a word. Whether it’s teaching Parwani to drive, pretending to be a bear to tell stories awkwardly, taking in young people who came out of the closet and being kicked out of their homes, from refusing to meticulously feeding stray cats with salmon, and failing Suicide 5.0, it’s also because they don’t want to give The children on the platform left a psychological shadow.
He is obviously a kind-hearted person, but he was only a little dull when he was young. Why did he become so sharp and out of touch with society?
The chapter of memory slowly opened, and we gradually understood how Ove completely gave up on the world and completely doubted the people around him.
My family is happy, but my mother died when I was young; my father tolerated Wen Dun, but died at the happiest moment of his own exam; the whitewashed new house became a sacrifice for the white-collared people to seek power and profit; when he was wandering, he finally met Sonia, an angel in her life, lost her child and her legs in a car accident. Life has given Ove too much darkness, let us watch with tears how this bitter but soft person struggles between himself and the society, with a trace of tolerance and responsibility, he has not left, and actively Participates in the world around him, but also stubbornly excludes anyone from entering his world.
But God will always tear apart his completely dark world, revealing a little light for him. After his mother passed away, his father's silent and deep love slowly infiltrated his soul with the tenacious and delicate faith in his life; when his father passed away, he opened his eyes vaguely but saw the pair of red high-heeled shoes, and he could see him. The sincere and kind Sonia behind the dullness; after Sonia lost her child and her legs in a car accident, he thought of giving up, but Sonia still smiled and drew the light from her body into his eyes, making him "die or die" He chose to move forward bravely in the choice of "live well"; after the death of his wife, he gave up completely and committed suicide five times. Fortunately, he met Patrick and his wife, and Parwani was clumsy and talkative, and arbitrarily gave Ove a lot of things that he hated. Things, saffron rice, kids, cats. But Parvani's innate kindness and perseverance finally ignited Ove's already gloomy old age. Everything Ove lost seemed to be slowly coming back at the end, the cat who never left, the friend who was demented but still wept for him, and the soft and delicate child who finally lay in the crib that had been vacant for many years. Ove also died as he wished, but instead of committing suicide in pain, leaving the neighbors with horror and disgust, he slept peacefully, making people cry at the funeral and miss him.
But even if everything is finally compensated, we still want to cry for Ove. With a clumsy and kind-hearted Ove, the good fortune he encountered was often consumed by greater misfortunes, like a cup of boiling water that was warm to the touch, but felt cold when he drank it.
Ove's misfortune seems to have given him a good reason to be forgiven for his acerbic paranoia, but he should also be thankful that there is light who always takes him forward. After all, he is also a man of light, and his warmth should not be affected by that kind of sadness. stubborn ugliness.
In the final scene of the movie, the little girl locks the iron gate that prohibits vehicles from entering.
It's good, but Ove's puzzle piece finally fits into his society, making people say that he is old-fashioned but cute, smiling red, serious but kind, seeing Saabs, street signs, being repaired The radiator pipe and the white stroller can always miss his place. Instead of being a mean old man, quietly committing suicide in his room, allowing people's fear and resistance to obliterate his original warmth.
No one can be alone forever, we can only warm each other.
