If a person behaves publicly, loves to play tricks, talks, talks, and seldom thinks about other people’s feelings, and let his own temperament, the ending may have its own results, but he is tired of fame and finally The abandoned Harry (played by Ralph Fiennes) turned out to be another miserable sight, which is embarrassing. Although he cannot be blamed, at least his sloppy character led to his lost ending.
Lucago Danino's "Holiday Surprise" (also translated as "Poolside Enchantment" 2015), with very delicate mirror language, presents Harry's playful journey towards the end. The excellent performance of the four actors is amazing, especially Tilda Swinton's polarized character, which shows the most tangled character in a precise and angular manner.
Originally, the famous female rock star Mariana (Tilda Swinton), who had lost her voice, enjoyed the little Sicilian with her boyfriend film producer Paul (Matias Schnellz). The magnificent scenery of Ni Ni in Pantelleria, but the arrival of Mariana’s friend, her former music producer Harry, broke the original calm. Harry came with him, and his beautiful and hot daughter Penny (played by Dakota Johnson).
When picking up the plane from the airport, the crazy Harry pointed to his daughter and said that she was 22 years old and as licentious as her mother. The divorced man scorned his ex-wife like this, which is enough to show Harry's true temperament with no words. Fortunately, his daughter doesn't care, she wants to know the father's faith. Harry is more familiar with the mountains and rivers here than Paul. He is a frequent visitor here, just like the aboriginal people of the small island.
Harry, who is extroverted, and Paul, who is introverted, is in sharp contrast from the beginning. Although Mariana and Harry had a deep relationship in music career, and even a couple, the reality is that she is with Paul. Paul takes care of her every day, taking medicine on time and going to bed on time.
But when Harry arrived, it was all messed up. Harry became a messenger who brought them happiness, and at the same time, consciously or unconsciously, also acted as a spoiler. So that on the first night, Paul complained why Mariana wanted to stay with them. She said hoarsely, who rarely spoke, that he is our good friend.
Indeed, Harry, who was very nervous, knew everything about the folk customs of this small island. Intermittently, Harry took Mariana to visit old friends and tasted the special food. The sexy Penny seems to have a soft spot for the quiet and handsome Paul, always deliberately adding movements to her eyes to tease him and stimulate him.
Even by the swimming pool, Penny, the ghost and spirit, used the ecstasy shape of a bikini to fiddle with him like a peacock. He just didn't take the move and said coldly that you don’t spend time with me, it’s useless. . The more this kind of heart block, the more you have to dredge, the little girl is still calm, and there is no excessive commotion, but she wants to go to the small town, hoping that he will be with him, but he has to be with him. Fortunately, with him, he also encountered North African refugees smuggled from the sea on the way. Of course, they would run away like birds and beasts.
The remains of extinct volcanoes are everywhere. The little girl ran forward. When she came to a pool of bitch, the little girl finally couldn't hold it anymore. She took off everything and lay naked on the smooth rocky shore. When he came over, seeing this scene, he still walked over without expression, as if he had to take a shortcut. The film does not go into details about whether Paul took advantage of the trend, but left the viewer with a boring imagination.
On the other side, Mariana and Harry enjoyed the enthusiasm of the aboriginal people on the island. In the sway, Harry took no time to say that in this life, my biggest mistake was not to lose my reputation, but to lose you. You are the best thing in my life. She said that I have always been grateful to you, but I am very happy with Paul now, don't slander him. Because before Harry’s car broke down on the side of the road, Paul drove an off-road vehicle and took him back with him. On the way, Harry kept chattering, what if you didn't say a word, is it hibernating now? Paul sternly said to do me a favor, can you stop talking, if you don't talk, we are all fine.
But Harry is destined to be Harry, you tell him to shut up unless you let him die. He said that losing Mariana is the stupidest tragedy in my life. Have you been with her, have you accepted my lesson? Because of this dialogue, the two have a rift, and the discordant notes are made public. Therefore, when Harry said that Paul was very rude, Mariana asked Harry not to say that about Paul behind his back.
When Harry and Mariana returned, Paul and Penny had not yet returned. Harry had an unpleasant sexual relationship with Mariana. Mariana, who was under both physical and mental pressure, did not desire to have this kind of physical contact with Harry. It is impossible to continue the relationship, but Mariana is Harry did have an unspeakable affection, but she couldn't part with Paul.
When Harry said I love you, she sadly said that we didn't see each other's hearts. But this hastily ended affair made Harry extremely upset. Indeed, as a man, at least physically, he swelled unhappily without letting it go. This bad mood was rising in his body.
The daughter's return made Harry seem amiable and said, we have made dinner, waiting for you. Looking at her daughter's bold and refreshing eyes, and then looking at Paul, Paul was very embarrassed, as if he really did something. The key is that Mariana has also been in conflict and entanglement.
Late at night, Paul, who couldn't sleep well, came out and swayed, picked up a few big snakes and threw it towards the cliff. At this moment, Harry, who was drunk, walked naked to the poolside to swim. He got up and saw Paul, climbed up, and asked if he had that kind of relationship with her daughter.
Paul was speechless. Harry, who was chattering endlessly, was still cursing like a cannon. You are nasty, we are nasty, and the world is nasty. The silent Paul pushed him into the water unbearably, which made Harry extremely angry. Paul, who felt he had done something wrong, reached out and tried to pull him up. Harry could no longer control his emotions and pulled him into the water. Paul told him to stop, but at this time Harry, who had become a roaring beast, couldn't listen at all. He wanted to put Paul to death. At this time, Paul was not so much a challenge, as he was struggling unexpectedly and wanted to survive.
In the end, in the melee, Harry was suffocated. Paul, who was frightened, hugged him and called Harry, don’t die, look at me, look at me... Who would have thought that a vacation between friends had become Such a catastrophic end. Paul went back to the house in a panic, and sat down next to the sleeping Mariana until dawn. When the maid came to see this scene by the pool, she hurriedly awakened the sleeping Mariana.
The saddest thing is of course Mariana, she tore in grief, making her wailed in silence. When the police arrived, he pulled up the cordon and drained the pool water. Inspector Martina took out from the pool a Rolling Stone record "Emotional Affair" made by Harry. He said that the sand in the pool was soft and he still watched it. We arrived at the clothes Paul had just dried, even though Paul tried to hide the scars on his body.
Harry's daughter, Penny, stared at Paul with strange eyes. It was obvious that her pain was still accumulating. They went to the police station together and took turns to inquire. Marianna took advantage of the night to drink with Harry, took the matter over, and excused Paul, as if to say that Harry herself was drunk and died in the pool alone late at night. The inspector told her that Harry's daughter was actually only 17 years old and that her American mother needed to sign and endorse the case. This really surprised them that Penny, who was so mature, was only 17 years old.
After returning, Mariana held tightly to the sobbing Paul. Paul sadly said that I didn't mean it, no. She knew very well that without Harry, Paul could not be lost. This was a smart woman, although she didn't say a few words from beginning to end. When she said goodbye to Penny, Mariana couldn't help but said, We are not your enemies, Penny said indifferently, please relax. Mariana slapped her and Penny left sadly. Mariana regretted beating her and kept watching her away. It was raining and crying Penny got on the gangway of the plane. Before entering the cabin, she turned her head and looked back. They had just left.
Pure Penny will always grow up slowly in the wind and rain, and the true feelings that belong to her will also come, but this sad journey is destined to accompany her throughout her life. This is also the price of growth.
The ending of the film is very dramatic. They thought they had nothing to do with Penny and were driving back. At this time, they heard the rapid sound of a police car, and they had to stop. The inspector came down with an umbrella and asked Mariana to go over. She ran over in a panic. It turned out that the inspector was holding her previous rock record, and it was a funny accident to request her to sign her name. She cried with joy and the inspector laughed.
This shows the innate ability of the Italians to be funny and funny. Who would have thought that this remote island, and her die-hard fans, thought she was too angry. This is not so much for this case, and there is a humane and reasonable explanation. Of course, this is against the law. This may be another kind of human emotion.
Yes, humans are an advanced animal accustomed to emotions, although this is different from other animals. When different personalities are linked to personnel, after time's cohesion and intensification, in a specific time and space situation, it will inevitably lead to the unpredictable, contradictory and unquantifiable divergence. This is not only a personal tragedy, the discord between people, but also an unsolvable rush factor in the depths of human nature.
