The main background of the movie is Europe during the war. The roar of airplanes, including the sound of the boy John playing imitating airplanes, all explain that civilians are accustomed to the roar of fighters. When the movie was about to end, the tank blatantly drove into the alley below the hotel, also saying that the situation was getting worse.
In this movie, which can't be described as any plot, what is worrying is the relationship between the two sisters.
Sister East is an intellectual, translator, old-school hairstyle, and capable professional suits, all showing that she is a very strict person. Even when I was sick, I had to get up to see my sister during the period, and I would comb my hair meticulously and put on formal clothes. However, such a woman is still seriously ill, smoking and drinking, she is in a huge conflict. Including her masturbation, her alcohol dependence, tobacco dependence. She was in extreme pain, but strictly demanded herself. And as a parent, he asked his adult sister.
Sister Anna is like a rebellious girl. Although she took her children out together, she was as free as a single woman. As soon as she checked into the hotel, she went to the bar to drink and have fun. Although she doesn't care about her son, obviously she cares about what her sister East thinks. She tells East one by one where she went and what she did. Of course, she also deliberately stimulated East. She had a fight with East, and then brought the bartender into the room.
Anna's son John, so silent, he traveled by train with his mother and aunt. He was full of curiosity and walked around alone. On the train, in the hotel. He is wary of people, but also curious. He observes the staff on the train, observes the dwarf passengers living with him in the hotel and plays together, he observes the hotel staff and looks at his old photos with him. Even if there is no language communication, even if the language is not communicated, there is still something flowing among them.
Better than East and Anna.
Anna said to the bartender, I wish East would die.
She was also alone to death. The person opposite her did not understand her words. Sometimes language is the weakest. But her state, her emotions, at that moment, she can understand without words.
She told herself that he was just a stranger, and he listened.
Anna deliberately made love to the bartender in front of East, nothing more than a resistance to her sister. However, she is still sad. Her crying, her struggle, her pain and loneliness are equally unintelligible.
East did not understand Anna, just as Anna did not understand East.
Lonely, deep into their bones. I can't walk along the way, I just want to escape without a helmet and armor.
The hotel staff is the same. He manages the hotel alone. Take care of the sick East. East could only communicate with him in body language. However, his concerned eyes took good care of her.
He took a picture of himself and showed it to the little boy John who was walking alone in the hotel. The language is not fluent, but the photos can be understood. The person in the photo must be his relatives, but now he can only miss it with the photo.
In this world, everyone lives with a heavy story. Everyone is an island. There is a vast ocean all around, and no one can see each other's hearts.
Solitude is the theme of our eternal life. From the moment we fell to the ground, we began our lonely life.
All the talk, all the search, all the running, thinking that it would take us out of this lonely place, and finally found that we were alone.
Finally, Anna took John to East's bed and told her that we were leaving by the two o'clock in the afternoon train.
I suddenly felt relieved in my heart.
Such a entangled relationship is not as good as a person.
Although East was still eager to live, she yelled, "Mom, save me" when she was having difficulty breathing.
No matter how lonely this world is, it still makes people want to live.
East wrote a letter to John on the hospital bed. John and Anna got on the train and opened the letter, only to be snatched by Anna to read it.
It's just that, like Anna, we don't know what we wrote.
Perhaps John knows.
I really hope he will not live in such a lonely world when he grows up.
