A man who decides to commit suicide, this is the message I got before watching this movie, it has some dark humor, and it appeared in the animated film section, which makes me think this is a dark humor movie.
I like the tone of the movie and the way of clothing. I don't usually watch French movies, but when I come here, I feel that my whole person has become elegant.
Closer to home, this is not a comedy, this man is really going to commit suicide because his wife broke his violin. On the way to find a new suitable violin, he met his first love, Yilan, who But he said he didn't know him, and when he returned home, he played a song on his new violin, took out the broken violin and thought for a long time, and finally decided to end his life. I'm not a music student, so I can't hear the difference between the new piano and the old one, but I guess he didn't get back the feeling he used to have, lost his beloved violin, lost the joy of life, lost the motivation to live, and the past is gone , and he didn't want to continue living like this.
He thought about many ways to die, and finally decided to lie in bed and wait for the arrival of the god of death. He spent eight days recalling and facing his own life.
He recalled his own adolescence. I am a normal student, and I always look at problems from the perspective of education when watching movies. Nasha Ali was a naughty boy when he was a child. He was compared with his outstanding younger brother in front of his classmates by the teacher and openly despised, scolded, I mocked him. I was extremely uncomfortable when I saw this. Obviously, the teacher made a big mistake, which largely caused his later personality to be lazy, reckless, irresponsible and indifferent, and he didn't have the patience to educate From this point of view, his own child's life is terrible.
He recalled his marriage. He did not love Frankie, he had never loved him, and he was completely persecuted by his mother. Frankie loved him, and loved him all the time. Their marriage was not happy, or rather, only short-lived happiness, mostly unhappy, married to a musician who was a hands-off shopkeeper, Frankie, who often lost his temper, married a secular math teacher , is far from Nasha Ali's ideal life. The failure of the marriage between two people is inevitable. It can only be said that in marriage, in addition to liking, it must also be suitable.
On the sixth day he saw death, he regretted it, he was afraid to face death, but it was too late, he had no chance, only one life, fair to everyone, made a wrong decision, then It is irreversible, we must cherish the present moment.
At the end of his life, he forgave Frankie, and saw the image of his first love, Yilan, and recalled every bit of their encounter and separation. She is the daughter of the owner of a watch shop. Both of them fell in love with each other at first sight. It should have been a romantic and beautiful love story, but those who love each other will always encounter obstacles. Yilan's father disagrees with the marriage of the two. In desperation, The two had to part ways, which ended in tragedy.
There are a lot of narrations in the film, which narrate the life of Nasha Ali's son and daughter, and the life behind Yilan from the perspective of God, which allows us to see a complete story.
There are some dark humorous points, but it is essentially a tragedy. Growth is unhappy, love is fruitless, marriage is unhappy, and life is tasteless. There are still many places for us to reflect on.
In the end Yilan came to his funeral, but unfortunately he was never seen again.
