So what exactly does "Rosetta" tell? What else can such a movie tell?
"Rosetta" tells about a tiny girl and her insignificant dignity. Rosetta has no fixed job, no friends, and her mother is a self-deprecating alcoholic who can have sex with any man for a little alcohol. Rosetta lives very hard, but every one of her efforts is doomed to failure-we might as well regard failure as an immutable setting in this closed theater space. Because she runs into walls everywhere, Rosetta is full of guard and hostility towards the outside world. Her stubborn personality and sharp edges and corners are very unpleasant at first glance. But Rosetta is actually very honest (or very realistic). She understands that for people struggling in poverty, living is the greatest meaning of life. Therefore, from the very beginning, she actively rejected the possibility of getting along well with others. For a job, Rosetta did not hesitate to betray her only friend, but it was not so despicable as a tragedy, because fundamentally speaking, Rosetta’s behavior was not the first to hurt others, but her. Own.
The ordeal is not over yet. Seeing that she has found a job and can live a "normal life", the drunkard mother suddenly returns. So the strong Rosetta finally collapses. She turns on the gas stove and prepares to commit suicide. However, the director and Luo again Seta made a cruel joke—the gas tank was out of gas, and the poor almost lost the right to suicide—that is, when the audience thought that dignity was finally emphasized, the director reminded us extremely strongly, Without material, dignity cannot be guaranteed to what extent. So Rosetta, who had come back from the dead, finally fell into a dilemma that was not new (and before that, her attitude had always been firm): She moved the new gas tank that would put her to death, step by step towards herself and The dignity of the mother. At this time, the friend who had been betrayed by her appeared. His appearance clearly reminded Rosetta’s behavior to abandon dignity. This made Rosetta’s attempt to exchange death for dignity completely a futile (feeling of futile). , Is also one of the feelings of the director meticulously arranging and implementing the whole play).
Because of the "small", the director can spend more of his mind on the form, which is another interesting aspect of "Rosetta". Rosetta is always struggling to do something from start to finish, or confronting the boss who fired her, or running hard, or arguing with her mother. In these processes, the environment is always not so friendly, shabby and shabby. The house, the harsh noise of the street, the barbed wire...the two together constitute the portrayal of Rosetta's struggle to survive. Another detail is Rosetta’s constant failures, constant failure to find a job, no fish, hatred of her mother’s behavior, but she can’t change it, and she can’t even die. This sense of futility seems to be a metaphor for a certain kind of life. normal. Rosetta has been hiding behind a wall and peeking more than once, so we can say that the girl has always longed for dignity deep in her heart. In fact, if "to live" is a humanistic concept, it has always been It needs dignity, doesn't it?
At the end of the movie, Rosetta accepted the warm support of her friend, and she cried. She cried and laughed once in the entire movie, both in front of her only friend. ——Forgive me for being long-winded and vague. "Rosetta" is such a movie. Its theme is ordinary and has no broad meaning. It only describes a girl’s experience, and such a personal experience is only fictional and has obvious mandatory settings. Certainly. I can't describe the meaning of such a story. I just felt a little touched when I saw this fictional girl at the end.
