Danny is a 4-year-old boy. That day, the door of the small garden at home happened to be unlocked, and the dog at home happened to run away mischievously. Danny chased after him, and Jason happened to drive past Danny's door. The road before, bumped into Danny...
After the death of their only son, Becca and Harvey's life is cloudy, from top to bottom: trying to sell the house with son marks everywhere, trying to keep warm but After repeated failures, it feels like their lives are like a distant twilight, about to sink into endless darkness
. When the film begins, Becca and Harvey have lost their son and are immersed in inextricable pain. Danny's death is a slowly collaged piece by the audience through the trivialities of their miserable lives. The trivialities of life, including Becca's inability to understand her sister's choice of lifestyle, her mother's nostalgia for her brother who died of drugs, including Harvey's time and again thinking about the possibility of having another child, and watching Danny's images in tears night after night , including the disagreement over how Becca and Harvey miss Danny - whether to erase Danny's traces at home or keep his room, his toys, his clothes, his smile... Compared to the overly attached "Inflection Point of Love", "Rabbit Hole" is the most appropriate title for this film. Becca and Harvey both understand that they are still very young, and their lives cannot stop because of the loss of Danny. , they hope to find a rabbit hole like Lewis imagined for the children, as long as they pass through the rabbit hole, they will drink Meng Po soup or get the forgetfulness grass, and they will pretend that they have never had Danny in their life. So I can live happily as before.
The rabbit hole they found:
refusing to hang out with neighbors and friends who might have mentioned Danny to them - life became more and more lonely;
sweating in the squash room - Danny still showing up between shots;
and People who have lost children like them form mutual aid groups for relief - Becca, whose faith has been shaken, has collapsed because of it;
Find Jason to forgive him for self-salvation - but the husband and wife are suspicious of each other;
smoke marijuana with the person who has lost love - the pain is worse after the hallucinations pass;
simply sell the house and start a new life in a new place - the house is not only The failure to sell, and the ensuing disputes, plunged Becca and Harvey into deeper mutual blame. There's no rabbit hole
for a mom trapped in a bereavement to break free .
Even psychology, psychoanalysis, Morita therapy, cognitive therapy, etc., which has become a panacea nowadays, cannot let Becca and Harvey get rid of their sad past; ” comic books seem to have a scientifically based parallel universe (don’t forget that Lewis was first a mathematician and then a fairy tale writer, so his fairy tale “Alice in Wonderland” is hidden everywhere for the visionary to sway at will. scientific basis), but what if there were thousands of happy Becca and Harvey in another universe? Here Becca and Harvey can't get rid of the endless pain of losing Danny.
With such a theme, because of the mutation, the originally happy love has turned to the small intestine, and "The Inflection Point of Love" is not the first. The good thing about this movie is that there are no answers. If you have to find an answer for "The Rabbit Hole", the movie tells us that every person is born with a destiny, so happiness comes or an accident happens, you can only bear it, and then on that path that changed Live obediently. Otherwise, "Why did God not create more angels and take back the angels in the world?" Unfortunately, Becca understood this truth but refused to accept this fact, so what else could she do except to be in pain?
Yesterday's Shanghai, which was frightened by the pouring rain all day, was gloomy and depressing. Strangely, after watching "The Inflection Point of Love", my mood was strangely bright.
That's the beauty of being close to art.
Thanks to Nicole Kidman, in "The Inflection Point", she is still beautiful, but let us forget that Becca is Nicole Kidman.
