The stage with the curtain pulled up is facing the dark and quiet audience, the completely silent world before the first line or music is released. Dead or alive. In the room behind the curtain, a naked man got off the bed, groped to the base of the wall, pulled the stage out of the hollywood mural, and faced the double audience in the virtual realm.
This is the end and the beginning of the movie "The Thrilling Holly". The man behind the curtain is the director Leo Karax himself, who is about to start ordering Action, and let the super-actor Denis Lawan look like a monkey king. Staged a "science fiction film" that the director himself identified. Gradually, we discovered that the stories that came out of these stretched-out luxury car dealerships had no science, only fantasy, bizarre characters, unpredictable behaviors, and jaw-dropping careers.
In Calax's view, the extended car is an interesting space in the age of mechanical industry. "When I lived in the United States, I often saw big guys like this. Later, when I returned to Paris, every weekend in the wedding in Chinatown next door, these Extended cars will also come out.” The information age is about to replace the industrialized landscape, so the extended car has become a kind of nostalgic object for Karax. In this "The Thrilling Holly Wood", it is more of a dressing room where the protagonist is constantly on stage, a life that is led and arranged by the driver.
Smoking a cigar and wearing a fine suit, after parting with the child, the industrial tycoon Mr. Oscar sat in Lincoln, made a decisive call on the huge transaction in the stock market, and confidently opened the driver and female secretary Selena. The schedule for him, this day in different corners of Paris, he has ten deals to discuss, really busy. But when the car was parked by the Seine, and the bodyguard opened the car door, a begging old lady in rags came out, we realized that Oscar was just a controlled puppet, and he wanted to be 10 in a day. Playing 11 different roles in each mission, lengthening Lincoln's huge cabin is nothing but his dressing room. The Monkey King, the Queen of Carax, with a weird and ugly appearance, is going crazy for seventy-two changes - industrial tycoon, begging old lady, motion capture double for the film, from the short film "Tokyo!" 》The flower-eating monster that crawled out of the sewers, the father who disciplined the girl, the gypsy accordion player, the killer who killed himself in the Chinese workshop, the old man who was about to die, the angry youth who slaughtered the financier, and even until the end, we thought we were done for the day After performing work, he was finally able to go home with his wife and children to heat up the kang head, but found that he walked into the warm cabin, took an orangutan's hand back to the room, and looked out the window with the little orangutan. Mr. Oscar never stopped performing, he has long since lost his ego, but where is the camera in the time and space of the film? Who is the audience?
Mr. Oscar also had a moment that could, for the time being, be considered "self". The two extended cars running on the mission rubbed against each other. Taking advantage of the driver's dispute, the two actors recognized each other. Mr. Oscar and Kylie Minogue played the same fate as a pair of old lovers. Thus, the story entered the only real but sad time. Next, The show must go on!
This is a "science fiction movie" with enough explanation channels, but it seems that there is no way to interpret it everywhere. People who like it exclaimed that 13 years have not been in vain. This is his first feature film since Paula X in 1999; Gorgeous trash.
The female driver who arranged life for Mr. Oscar returned to the car dealership, put on a mask, and started her own performance time. Cars nagging about their jobs, waiting to continue to be dressing rooms tomorrow morning. Life is too short, The show must go on!
