In July, I told my master that I wanted to travel, he said we could go together, I said where to go, he said to Iceland.
If you suddenly come to Northern Europe from such a noisy environment in China, you will be surprised.
I don't want to travel unprepared, especially mentally.
Once Zhu made fun of it, the kind of 5999 yuan 7-day tour group in 18 European countries is estimated to be equivalent to sending 18 groups of friends.
So I decided to watch a movie about Iceland. After searching around, only this "The Virgin Mountain" is somewhat attractive to me. Although it was co-produced by Denmark and Iceland, the scene should be in Iceland.
But who would have thought that when I was on my second brush, suddenly for some reason, our travel plan was canceled, and we plan to talk about it after a while.
Before you know it, summer is over again, take the time to write a movie review and find something to do.
This article is about 8100 words in total, with 250 pictures, and the reading time is about 12 minutes.
Are there such people around you?
He looks plain and wears simple and clean clothes every day. He doesn't seem to like to talk much, and he has never seen him express his emotions.
The most common words I hear him say are "hello", "thank you", "okay", "it's okay" and "sorry".
He took his simple job very seriously, barely interacting with others, just doing what he was supposed to do.
He has his own stable but pitifully small social circle, and he enjoys it.
He doesn't like to be exposed to new things, he sees anything calm as a kind of enjoyment, a kind of beauty.
Some people don't like him, think he's a weirdo, and joke about him everywhere.
But if you need his help, he will try his best to help you regardless of the reason.
He has his own love and focus on things, never deliberately show others, so few people know. If others are curious to ask him, he will introduce carefully and patiently.
Of course, his emotions are very simple and sensitive. He is not romantic, and he is not very good at speaking, but he knows that as long as he promises a girl, he will do it.
He didn't know what to do when the girl cried, he only knew how to hold the girl tightly.
Fusi, age 40+, works as a ground handler at an airport in Iceland, specifically loading and unloading aircraft. Single and never in a relationship.
He has a lifeless face, and is even accompanied by such bad problems as hair loss and overweight. His unpleasant appearance may be one of the reasons for his lack of social interaction.
However, he kept his clothes clean, but this was only limited to cleanliness, and he didn't have the slightest dashing temperament in his suit. It can only be said that Fusi knows what to wear on what occasion and behaves well.
This rule gives people a very comfortable feeling.
Fusi's father committed suicide when he was young, and his mother became his only relative.
As the mother of a hairdresser, her widowed life is not monotonous. She finds a new boyfriend, wears sexy silk pajamas, and talks to other old ladies about how to make desserts. Obviously, the mother's personality is much more cheerful than Fusi.
Fusi's biggest hobby is to play war games, quietly fiddling with tank models and soldier models on the sand table, and recreate the scenes of World War II by rolling dice and brainstorming.
Fusi went to the store to buy a remote-controlled toy off-road vehicle, and drove the car back and forth on the snow by himself near his home.
Fusi likes to be alone in the driver's seat of his big black GMC pickup, calling and ordering a song from a familiar radio host, and the witty host knows that Fusi wants heavy metal rock every time.
Fusi used to go to the same Thai restaurant alone in the evenings, sitting in the same seat each time, and ordering only the same dish each time: "Pad Thai".
The above are all Fusi's hobbies. These hobbies seem to be labeled as otaku and social phobia on Fusi.
Although World War II, GMC, drag racing, heavy metal rock, these tough guy elements are all accompanying products in Fusi's solitary hobbies, but these accompanying products may be understood as the real inner existence of Fusi.
He also has a passionate and wild heart, he also has intense and cathartic emotions, and he also longs for a happy and interesting life.
Mordur, Fusi's only best friend in the film. Mordur and Fusi share a common hobby: sandbox war games.
In such a niche game, you can meet a person who can immerse yourself in it, as if two people discovered an uninhabited island at the same time. There are only two of them on this island, and they can say anything and do whatever they want.
No matter what Fusi and Mordur do together, Fusi's mental state is always relaxed. This state breaks through his external character, and even takes the initiative to tell bad jokes.
Two people of similar age and hobbies, Fusi is single, and Mordur is already the father of two boys. After learning that Fusi is going on a date, he also helps Fusi to make suggestions.
Mordur may have experienced the troubles of love, the shackles of marriage, and the noise of children. This old driver must let his friend Fusi take less detours and reach a relaxed and happy harbor as soon as possible. Fusi's new girlfriend agrees to live with Fusi, Mordur helps Fusi move house on a snowy day, but half of his girlfriends repent after moving in when they say that he is not ready. The two big men have been busy for nothing, and Mordur gives Fusi a fierce look.
Fusi, who works at the airport, although he does his job diligently every day, will inevitably have colleagues who like to make fun of him, ridicule him for being out of shape, withdrawn and rigid, and even play tricks on him.
For these, Fusi chose to swallow his voice and did not resist.
In the eyes of the leaders, Fusi has always been an excellent and stable employee, and the leaders also take good care of Fusi's feelings. However, Fusi did not complain or complain in front of the leaders, but spoke kind words for his colleagues.
I think there are three reasons: First, because Fusi does not want to intensify the conflict with his colleagues and cause trouble; second, Fusi has been used to being ridiculed and teased in his life, so numb he doesn't want to resist; third, because of his kind nature , has forgiven the behavior of the colleague.
Later, when the colleague who had teased Fusi asked Fusi for help, Fusi calmly agreed.
The lively environment and new things, these two things that can make people excited, are so indifferent to Fusi, there is even a slight resistance.
The mother's boyfriend talked to Fusi about the Internet, and he suggested that Fusi could meet his spiritual needs through online dating, but Fusi kept silent and continued to eat milk and cereal with a blank face.
On Fusi's birthday, his mother prepared a cake for Fusi, and his mother's boyfriend gave Fusi a top hat and a gift certificate for a dance class, which is similar to a fitness card. The purpose is to let Fusi go out and get in touch more. Some people and things.
Fusi, who was used to playing sand table games quietly, didn't want to participate in this dance class, but out of respect for the second elders and to meet their requirements, he was "forced" to try it.
The result, as expected, was defeated on the spot.
It is very difficult for Fusi to actively integrate into an unfamiliar environment, which is also the biggest flaw in Fusi's character.
Next, let's talk about our heroine Sjofn
Sjofn → Xiufen → Xiufen, she can be Wang Xiufen, Li Xiufen, Zhang Xiufen, Chen Xiufen, anyway, she can't be "Fu Xiufen".
Fusi, who was a deserter in his first dance class, sat in the car in a daze.
Because a storm suddenly hit and the weather became very bad, Xiufen, who had just finished her dance class, wanted to go home but was a little scared, so she stepped forward and asked Fusi if she could take a ride home by herself.
When Xiufen got into Fusi's car, Fusi still felt very nervous about such a sudden opportunity to contact the opposite sex, and then there must be an awkward chat.
The first meeting planted the seeds for the two.
Fusi was very nervous the whole time, but he was also a little excited. He is such an inactive person, and there are not many opportunities for such occasional contact with the opposite sex.
Despite chatting awkwardly along the way, the act of sending a girl home is very gentlemanly, and Fusi also successfully "completed the task".
Fusi seemed to get a little satisfaction out of it.
A few days later, it was time for the next dance class, and before going out, Fusi packed himself up (however, he didn't seem to be handsome), and I wonder if what would happen to him and Xiufen would continue.
This kind of unknown expectation often makes people feel nervous and excited.
I think it's not that Fusi doesn't like dancing, it's that he fears the environment of a dance class. If it wasn't for Xiufen's accidental appearance, would Fusi come to dance class?
Obviously, dance class is something that Fusi can't accept, but for Xiufen, he is willing to give it a try. This is the first change that Fusi has made for Xiufen.
After class, Fusi took Xiufen to the Thai restaurant he was most familiar with and recommended the Thai fried noodles he was most familiar with. Later, he went back to the pickup, cut to the radio station he was most familiar with, and found the anchor he was most familiar with to order one. song.
Everything makes Fusi so handy, it seems that he just re-dos what he does every day, but at the same time gives another person a sense of gain.
Xiufen has inadvertently entered into several important steps in Fusi's life, and Fusi has once again gained a great sense of satisfaction.
It was said before that Fusi's inner world is different from his usual external performance. This scene also confirms that there is a conflict between the two: Xiufen invited Fusi to drink tea at home, but was rejected by the dull Fusi, but Fusi's Unwilling to do so, she mustered up the courage to turn around and asked her if she could drink milk.
Take courage, honor your heart, don't hesitate, do what you want to do, Fusi can do it, so can you!
At Xiufen's house, the two sat and chatted on the sofa. Fusi drank a glass of milk and did nothing else.
Fusi was on his way home with a look of joy on his face.
At this time, Fusi had already developed feelings for Xiufen, and a pure love flooded into his heart.
Is Xiufen beautiful? Do not.
Does Xiufen dance well? Do not.
Is Xiufen very temperamental and elegant in conversation? Do not.
Then why does Fusi have feelings for Xiufen?
For Xiufen, this excited and unfamiliar feeling gave Fusi a boost.
Curiosity towards the opposite sex, meeting the expectations of family members and friends, being the first time someone accepts their appearance and character, willing to communicate with them, doing what they like with them, and the first time someone walks into their life.
Falling in love is a later thing, and now Fusi is very happy.
Xiufen kept everything Fusi said and did in her heart, and wanted to like her more and be closer to her.
The movie is like this. When you are lying on the bed at home, blowing the air conditioner, eating watermelon and brushing your mobile phone, life suddenly rushes over and tore off your roof, making you feel the scorching sun, otherwise you don’t know what’s going on outside. matter.
The autistic Fusi was pulled back by reality. What happened to Xiufen? How could she suddenly become like this?
The magical species of woman is enough to make Fusi think beyond his head. It's safest to hide in your own sandbox war.
Saturday was a gathering of colleagues, and Fusi came as promised.
Fusi attends a colleague's party, firstly because it is difficult to refuse, and secondly because Xiufen doesn't want to see herself and has nothing to do.
And why did Fusi resist the strip girl's dancing and flirting, and in the face of the "gift" given by his colleagues, Fusi made a fierce resistance, which was completely different from the performance of swallowing his voice when he suffered other pranks before.
Because Fusi not only thinks about Xiufen in his heart, but he has already imagined himself as "Xifen's person", his behavior and his efforts should be considered for Xiufen, and Xiufen is the center.
For a woman, Fusi showed his masculinity.
To exaggerate a bit, Fusi seems to be saying in his heart:
"Xiufen didn't want to see me and sent me a good card because she was in a bad mood. I like Xiufen very much. My whole being is hers, including my body. You can't spoil me!"
"In the past, the prank was just for me alone, I just endure it silently, I don't want to cause more trouble. Now you are forcing me to make mistakes, which is a kind of harm to Xiufen, I can't do this!"
A woman who has hurt her heart will also make herself haunt her.
Xiufen never went to a dance class again, and Fusi did not block people when she got to Xiufen's house. Anxious Fusi finally broke the glass on Xiufen's house and entered Xiufen's house. He was locked in a storage room, and it seemed that he hadn't come out for a long time.
Fusi didn't leave. After feeding the cat, he slept on the sofa for one night. He woke up early the next morning to clean up, repair his broken glass, and cook for Xiufen.
Fusi helped Xiufen maintain the family, Xiufen also began to improve slowly, willing to open the door, but Xiufen was still very weak.
When Xiufen is falling down due to frustration, Fusi dedicates his time to help Xiufen.
The leadership approved Fusi's leave, and the date of the leave is still uncertain.
Why this date is uncertain, because Fusi can give infinitely for Xiufen, maybe a week, maybe three months, maybe a year, instead of "I will help you to work for three days, if you don't come to work, I can't help it, I will also Do your best."
Fusi seems to have endless power for Xiufen.
If it is replaced by other ordinary employees, the leader may directly let him go. It shows that the leaders still cherish and value Fusi very much, and look forward to returning to work as soon as he finishes his work.
When he came to the garbage dump where Xiufen worked, Fusi volunteered to replace Xiufen and asked for leave to do so. In order to keep Xiufen from losing her job.
Sorting garbage seems to be overkill for Fusi, but Fusi's working condition is exactly the same as when he was at the airport, all of which face the things that have been delivered by the crawler with a blank face.
But one thing seems to be different from the airport. Colleagues are very kind to Fusi and will take Fusi to do some relaxing activities, which must make Fusi feel very comfortable.
From the beginning, Fusi was afraid of socializing, and now he is slowly integrating into other people's group activities. Although everyone is a stranger, this feeling will inevitably be very warm.
Getting better.
The mother separated from her boyfriend and lost the chance to be happy, but she very much hopes that Fusi can find her life partner and have his own happiness.
Fusi, who works steadily and earnestly, will not add worry to her mother in daily life, and she is also a support for her mother's life.
She may have been nagging about Fusi's singleness for many years, but now she has calmed down and has her own life. But she still waited quietly day after day.
And when the son really wants to leave himself to pursue his own happiness, the mother finds that there is one less person around her to rely on, and that kind of reluctance can only be understood by mothers.
Of course, our happier life is also the greatest consolation to our parents.
Back home again, Xiufen is already alive.
The title of the film is "The Mountain of Virgins", and the scene of "breaking the virginity" flashes lightly. It seems that the physical "virginity" is not the point, but breaking through another "virginity" is the key.
Fusi has done so much for Xiufen and has proved his sincerity.
If you are happy, I will be happier, if you are sad, I will be even more sad, and I will carry it with you.
However, in order to get real happiness, there is a lot to do, a lot of conditions, and more to give up.
The next episode can be described as gnashing of teeth.
Let's analyze Xiufen.
Xiufen is actually an ordinary person with an ordinary appearance and an unpleasant way of speaking. She lives alone and likes flowers.
From the first time she took Fusi's ride home, she suspected that the taciturn Fusi was a pervert. I don't know if it was because she was too sensitive or just joking. From this point on, I think that Xiufen is not a person with a simple personality. Strong, and said something that made people feel a little uncomfortable.
The waves of hints to Fusi from the second meeting made me feel that Xiufen is a bit of a double standard. On the first side, I thought that she might be a pervert, and on the second side, she directly asked people to go home for tea (perhaps this is the case with Icelanders).
On the third side, well, let people go straight.
As for why Xiufen didn't work in the flower shop, but went to the garbage dump, what happened during this period made Xiufen stop working in the garbage dump, and gave up on herself at home, I have not come up with a very reasonable explanation. .
The most likely situation is that as the director of the garbage factory said, self-pity and laziness, do not want to do anything, do not think about the future life.
When Fusi slowly improved Xiufen's life, she realized that Fusi was good, but after learning about it, she put pressure on Fusi again, wanting Fusi to leave her mother and live alone; if the flower shop, Let Fusi help with the decoration.
When Fusi finally gave up her things and was ready to run towards her in high spirits, she said that she was not ready, and then she cried.
She makes me feel that she is a little naive and willful, not to mention that Fusi has done so much for her, can't she let her mind give in a little?
Has she considered Fusi's feelings? No, she didn't, she only cared about herself.
As for whether she likes Fusi or not, I really can't tell.
After returning home, Fusi was a little haggard and powerless. Without Xiufen, he could only live his original life again, eating alone, sleeping alone, and working alone.
Fusi in the camera seems to be thinking when he is expressionless, and now he is thinking, what else can he do for Xiufen.
Yes, a flower shop, a flower shop is Xiufen's dream, and even without Fusi, this shop should be able to support Xiufen to live a good life for the rest of her life.
Fusi is gone, the whole film is over.
Whether he is going on a solo trip to Egypt or leaving Iceland, no one knows.
But these are not important, he just wants to leave this sad place now.
Perhaps when he climbed to the towering pyramid, he was thinking of Xiufen's dancing.
Maybe he was in the solemn temple, but he was thinking of the Thai restaurant.
Perhaps in the evening by the Nile, he was thinking of the night when the blizzard came.
There is also a very important role in the film: the little girl in the neighbor's house
The image setting of the little girl, like a voice-over, does not seem to have anything to do with the main storyline of the story, but has been showing off Fusi's loneliness and longing for others to accept his character and emotions.
And what the girl said, it was as if she was asking questions for the audience, asking questions for the other characters in the film, and then filling the whole story with Fusi's answers and performances.
What happened between the little girl and Fusi paved the way for the development of the plot, and also increased the image of Fusi's heart.
What kind of person is Fusi?
There are several details in the film.
It is a very good habit to restore something that has been used up, not only for the sake of the future, but also for the consideration of others.
Woodworking, machinery, cooking, model painting, decoration, etc., these men's essential skills at home, Fusi can do everything.
Thoughtful about everything and happy to help others.
Usually he has a very high level of patience, and when he really fights, none of his three colleagues is his opponent.
A cold and warm man, a gentle man.
I like a person's performance: I happen to have everything you want, and I will try my best to get what I don't have.
Driving home, listening to the radio, and eating fried noodles are all things Fusi would have done.
But Fusi will not take the initiative to create romance, and can only learn what Xiufen needs during the process of communicating with Xiufen.
What Xiufen needs may be a trip, a job, a breakfast, a flower shop, maybe a hug, and then Fusi will try to do it.
And these things that can be done are precisely the most stable and surprising romance.
Unfortunately, what Xiufen needed in the end was freedom.
"My character determines my behavior, and no matter what happens, I have to face it.
I accept both good and bad. "
The sounding instrument in the film should be a stringed instrument, full of Icelandic feeling, very icy.
The fixed lens that is accustomed to use is also the most in line with the perception of the human eye, which improves the realism.
