The protagonist Vince’s family situation, to put it bluntly, is a deadlock with his own destiny. Even you can’t bear to say that there are lies between these family members, and you can’t say how much “secrets” they are. What a serious matter. Vince wanted to be an actor and read acting correspondence in his spare time, but he refused to tell his family and made up all kinds of reasons. However, after seeing his wife Joyce, you seem to understand all of this. His wife has an absolutely strong aura, and often fuss over small contradictions and destroys Vince’s presence in front of his wife step by step. Confident and even lazy talk to his wife, and the more he does this, the more annoyed the wife will be. Such a vicious circle of death knots can be described as a typical feature of a marriage crisis. You can't even say which party is at fault. It is Vince's concealment and lack of active communication with his wife, or the strength of his wife that prevents Vince's active communication from taking effect or even directly from the motivation. After being pinched, the paradox between the chicken and the egg was torturing the nerves of the couple. They always felt that they were more rational, stubbornly rushing on their own path, but did not care about the direction of both parties. It's already the opposite.
Vince’s children are also in a mess. Because of her daughter’s scholarship, she dare not let her family know that she can only make money from pole dancing. Thinking about her strong mother, I can understand the decision. And his son is in adolescence that is not tuned, and he is not generally tuned. His secret hobby is to like fat girls, especially when he accidentally discovered that his online "heavyweight" dream lover is a neighbor. The investigation and counter-investigation farce has also begun. What annoyed Vince most was the sudden appearance of the child Tony, and the child carried a secret story of his past love history. He wanted to help his son, but he didn’t want his family to confide in him, so he made up a story. Reasons to bring his son home. Watching such a family dinner is really a weird atmosphere. A husband who secretly learns to act and his wife who is always in a state of irritation, without warm eyes facing each other, but from time to time glaring at each other, and her daughter stubbornly talks about her. In academic life, my son talked about his sister’s breasts indiscriminately, and also caused the male members of the family to peek sideways. Tony’s embarrassment as an outsider is just like the third-party perspective of our audiences. I really feel it for them. in a hurry.
It is not only Vince who has the secret, but also the Molly he met in acting class. The two became confidants and talked about them. They were supposed to be the encouragement roles played by their closest wives, but Molly played the role at this time. So the closer the two are, you will feel less moral guilt. Joyce, who didn’t know, actually had the worries of work and life. He was supposed to be the closest husband to relieve his worries. But at this time, he was chatting with Tony more and more emotionally. So the two of them were close to dry wood and raging fire. Will feel the "incest" guilt of not having such a life. What really makes people feel uncomfortable is that the motivation for this mutually hurting situation is that they are a family, but they have a complicated "internal and foreign affairs" relationship. A kind of weird "family politics" has emerged in it, and even appeared. In addition to the mutual checks and balances created when their respective secrets are discovered by each other, this is indeed a bizarre family scene. It is always easier to magnify small things than to make big ones smaller. It is a dream that needs family encouragement, it is a depression that needs family comfort, and it is a setback that needs family members to share, but they have become their own secrets. I am afraid to tell a little bit. , Finally led to the last secret explosion. This kind of stories about family secrets all have a continuous lie, and the lie is getting bigger and bigger, so that the scene of uncontrollable outbreaks, how to detonate such a climax is also the key to this kind of story. The good thing about this film is that, although it is a life boring film, it has been advancing in a light comedy way, full of fun and irony, and finally, through one or two wrong clues, the director asked a few more People with secrets are intertwined in a scene, so after a family chaos, we have a glimpse of the exhaustion and costs of this "family politics". The director also passed a happy ending, showing that once everyone puts down the burden and tells their secrets, or if the ending of the film is forced to be "telled", they can also reach mutual understanding and enjoy the warm time of a real family. As far as the audience is concerned, they have a deeper understanding of everyone’s motivation and past, and discovered that everyone in this family is actually very kind and lovely.
"Urban Island" is a very relaxing film. The interesting story makes you feel the chaos of a family. It is funny and absurd from time to time, and it is interspersed with warm hope. Naturally, this may give you some enlightenment. For communication between people, for others, listen more, for yourself, and have more courage to talk to friends and family. Perhaps many complicated relationships can be lightened. The slipknot that can be opened by just picking it up is precisely that we always tie up unnecessary threads on our own, making it a dead knot, avoiding the dead knot of life, from unlocking the slight slip knots, and from to your friends and relatives. Start by telling all the "secrets" that are not that big of a deal.
