The best movie I've seen in 2008, I think it is "Rachel's Wedding", which is in line with my standards. So, I think of another wedding, and I keep refusing, the wedding of sister Margot.
It is also a pair of sisters, a chaotic family, and a complicated relationship with each other.
Living under the same roof, everyone has different little emotions in their hearts.
Noah Bauerbach uses his usual calm attitude to deal with some complicated family and marriage stories.
Sister Margot is a sensitive, bitter writer, beautiful, arrogant, and eccentric. She and her son attended the wedding of younger sister Pauline. In the conversation between mother and son on the train, you can know that their sister relationship is not good, at least Margot thinks so.
As for the younger sister, the personality is opposite to that of the older sister, but Noah has not dealt with the vulgarity of "The Twins of Meilinda". The two sisters seem to be far apart, and their personalities are also the same at different times. This is the two parents and sisters.
Obviously, my sister didn't like my brother-in-law, and finally couldn't help but comment on the fat man who was idle. And this fat man, cowardly, hypocritical, and betrayal, the audience will later think that his sister's point of view is correct.
The quarrel between the younger sister and the older sister often broke out. My sister has a slightly neurotic and weird temper, and often displeases people around her, her sister, son, husband, lover, brother-in-law, neighbors. Sometimes it is difficult for the younger sister to communicate with the older sister, and a certain sentence may irritate the older sister. The son sometimes wanted to comfort his mother, but he was resisted by his mother. The mother spoke harsh words and vilified the son's self-esteem to maintain his confidence. Margot’s concerns about the health of his sister’s neighbor’s family and the "children" of their comrades and friends are "superfluous" in the eyes of the family.
Why is Margot like this?
I think carefully about the connection in the plot structure arranged by Noah Bauerbach, such as Noah's explanation of the childhood embellishment of the character Margot-their perverted father. This caused a change in Margot's view of people. For example, at the beginning it was just a family chat, saying that her brother-in-law was sexually assaulted by a male babysitter when she was young. At the end of the story, Margot asserted that her brother-in-law had a "pedophile". When she saw the neighbor’s relationship with the child, she asserted, Neighbor abuse of children, children of gay friends, not to mention how uncomfortable it is in Margot's eyes. When her lover dick mentioned her real father in the reader's forum, she was so helpless and panicked. She wants to betray her husband Jim, but she still wants to return to Jim. She understands that what she lacks most is a sense of security.
My sister hates my sister, why? My sister sells her love story, reveals her secrets and everything about her, her sister denies it. However, younger sister Pauline still hopes that her sister can come to her wedding, and it is for her sister. My sister felt that many things about her sister were wrong. For example, she didn't like her sister's lover dick, she didn't understand why her sister didn't teach her nephew to swim, and she didn't understand why her sister was so troublesome. Pauline’s expression is very different from her sister. She will not speak openly, even if she chooses not to say it. In the end, when everyone’s contradictions finally surface, the audience will know the sister’s point of view.
Do you know where the story is touching? There are many contradictions, knowing that when things are in crisis, blood is thicker than water after all.
The big tree accompanying them was cut down. My sister's wedding was also ruined. The elder sister took her sister and left home, hoping that she could live again and leave the man who was not worthy of her sister. The two sisters slept on the same big bed and licked each other's wounds.
The younger sister decided to return to the fiancé, while the older sister returned to the husband who lacked passion but had a sense of security.
Actor Nicole Kidman, 2007 was terrible, especially after you watched "Fatal Visit" and "Fur" that year. Nicole Kidman in "Margot at the Wedding" interprets this savage female writer as both bored and cute. Jennifer Lee's little rebellious and impulsive sister is even more exciting, and will not be concealed by the Oscar queen's "sister", which is very impressive. What about Jack Black, alas, for so many years, he is still the fat rock man in the rock classroom, and he has not changed.
Many movie websites have not rated "Margot at the Wedding" compared to Noah Bauerbach's previous works. In my opinion, it may be a bit harsh. It may be that this is a bit too strong "academic style|", which has the flavor of the French New Wave in it. But the color of the movie is full of nostalgia, and the shot of a slightly dilapidated old house is very textured. I really like the taste.
The movie is not as dull as I thought, but for those who like movies with strong comedy conflict, this one will still be a little disappointed.
