I need to watch some comedy, so I choose to watch "Happy Ending", although the stumbling plot life is not very pleasant, but it will be very happy. The "old film" of 2005 is not a film dedicated to being funny, but it has the power to make you roll and laugh seriously from time to time, and the whole plot is smooth, playful and relaxed.
The plot and character relationships are a bit convoluted, with three main lines, all relationships can be linked together. It starts with tracking shots, running woman, chasing man, screaming, car accident, and then there is no narration but the subtitle on the right side of the screen: She is not dead. No one dies in this movie. It's a comedy, in a sense. Then there is the memory of Mai Mi, who was 18 years old and seduced her unrelated "brother" Charlie, and then went to the middle-aged Mai Mi to get a coupon to get a massage, and met Javier, a Mexican who "actually serves as a cowherd". . Mai Mi meets a "film worker" who calls herself Nicky. In order to get a bonus from the Film Association, Mai Mi threatens to make a documentary "A Thousand Miles to Find Children" with the whereabouts of Mai Mi's abandoned children more than 10 years ago. Meanwhile, the gay Charlie suspects that his cohabitation partner Jill's queer partner friends Pamela and Diane had a son they stole Jill's sperm. On this side, Mai Mi coaxed Nicky to say that Javier would help him make a documentary about "The Inside Story of the Mexican Immigrant Massage Sex Service Industry", and the three of them made a mess; on the other side, Charlie made a lot of bad moves. Happy and far away. A girl named Judy stayed at her cousin's house after being kicked out of her home. She met Otis, who was in a band, at a bar, so she seduced him to take his money, but fell in love with his widowed father for many years. Frank, on the grounds that Otis was actually gay, threatened him to help himself to his father. The three lines are not very pleasant. On the one hand, the film "The Collision of Ideals and Survival" was very unpleasant. On the other hand, the old rich man finally proposed to marry him and gave his sincerity. In order to prevent the family from leaking out, his son made a deal with his father... Let's all break up. Mai Mi couldn't let go of her son's whereabouts before moving, and found Nicky's home with Charlie. It turned out that the son was born with Charlie back then, and it turned out that the son was the "younger brother" adopted by the Nicky family... Honey understands everything the moment she sees Sam, and runs out crying and gets hit by a car... Then the good things begin, mother and son meet; Charlie meets a urologist and moves in together; Otis's The band regrouped and got on with the band's guitarist; Frank met Mimi, fell in love and got married; Nicky never got out of college and got married; JaVale also worked on his great career of serving women …….no one ever saw Judy again, she had an abortion, sang in the club, and still had a clear and moving voice…………
"Happy Ending" is the name JaVale gave to Nicky's film and the creed of his service career. All the stories in this movie are not to tell you that all bad things will pass and things will be resolved, but just to tell you that bad things are like that, and troubles are like that, no In the past, it won't be resolved, it's still bad; it's just that other good things will happen, and as soon as you are happy, the old troublesome things will pass. I especially liked the sentence in it. Maimi felt sad that Sam knew of her existence and was unwilling to recognize her. Charlie said: No, it is better to know you than not to recognize you. In fact, this film is a bit "fuck": for example, unrelated siblings; brother-in-law staring at cousin's chest; seducing boyfriend's father; masseuse and client... But, you look at it After getting accustomed to these unbelievable nonsense, I will feel that there are many kinds of love, no kind of love, and unclassifiable love. A little deformed, there will be love that some people find disgusting.
The film is very humorous. For example, a father who has been worried that his son is gay can hardly contain his joy when he sees his son taking his girlfriend home to sleep. The humor of the whole film is very integrated. It is not a piece of jokes, but a mockery and contentment of life and oneself from the heart. Jumping out of the plot, but naturally submissive to the story.
Long time no see our Phoebe from Friends, neurotic cute Phoebe. The wheat honey here still has a little Phoebe feel, which is very cute. In addition, I like Judy very much, and I like her actor Maggie Gyllenhaal. I feel that her temperament is like the Spider Woman Dunst, but she is a little cuter than her, less British and more Swedish. The songs in it are all sung by her original voice, which is very nice. To find the OST and listen to it.
