Ground crew Foss finally stepped onto the boarding bridge he once looked up to. Destination: Egypt, where Montgomery defeated Rommel for the first time, is the opposite of Iceland, a warm place full of sunshine.
The passers-by on the bridge have become themselves, and Foss' bloated and fat body is like a moving chinchilla in the glass covered bridge. This realistic work has a golden kawaii innocence. The 40+ virgin Foss is this mountain. He is a taciturn and slow-moving meat mountain.
If there is anything unique about this film, it should be that it creatively refined and created a Nordic warm man who was madly abused but hidden, and even repaid his grievances with virtue. The logic of vicious revenge that you think insults and bullying will inevitably lead to is all lost in this movie. The director has set human traps everywhere, but for Fox, who is demented and suffering from paralysis, all this can't hurt him. He is like a big white in human skin. He is either mentally retarded or a god. For me, the director only It is almost impossible to say that Foss is actually possessed by Christ.
As a small person living in Iceland, a porter of airline luggage, and still living with his mother at the age of 40+, if the plot slips into the sad reminder, it will become "Piano Lesson" where mother and daughter love each other and kill each other, but, no, Fox accidentally saw the sex between his mother and her boyfriend, the single dog was abused, and he just used the newly bought remote control car to vent, and the mother would question the slightest emotion in his tone, but this But he couldn't stop him from moving out of the apartment he shared with his mother, and then moved back when his girlfriend regretted it. The relationship between his mother and him didn't seem to be that good, and it didn't seem to be that bad. The inner logic was really incomprehensible. The director wants to say that Foster's mother is actually just a paper tiger?
Fox's girlfriend was a girl who had left home at the age of 15. She was seriously insecure. For the first time, she took the initiative to get into Fox's car to avoid a blizzard, but kept saying that he lured strangers into the car, and then she would not. will kill her? After arriving safely, she jokingly said thank you for not killing. She lost her good job as a florist and became a garbage sorter, but suffered from depression. In the relationship between the two, she has always played an active role. Once Fox has further performance, she starts to run away. Stressed by his mother, he said that learning to dance is to take one step forward and two steps back, which is an apt description of the relationship between him and his girlfriend that began with dancing.
Fox is undoubtedly very unusual. If the plot slips into the popular and funny, this film is estimated to be made into the Icelandic version of "Forty-Year-Old Virgin", but the director's ambition is more than that, just like there are many leftover women in China. , we have not been able to make a movie about the problem of leftover women, which is a specimen and extreme. "The Mountain of the Virgin" raised the problem of otaku and leftover men, and also provided a convincing and heart-warming solution, although this solution is somewhat Too lofty and great, not everyone can practice. But as a dream machine, the movie makes the impossible possible.
In an era when people all over the world look at appearance, the problem with Fox is that he is too fat and bald, and his appearance is almost negative, which makes Fox very inferior and autistic. If this plot slips into cruelty and blood, it will definitely be made into another play "Rain of the Day" that I watched that night. After all, it is Iceland, which has produced music national treasure Bjork. The people of this country are good at creativity and will never fall behind. The co-workers laughed at Foss for being a virgin and dragged him into the bathroom to take a shower, but he endured it. In order to make up for him, the wonderful workers called prostitutes to serve him at the party, and he had a physical conflict with them only in a panic. How is the super ninja practice developed? There is no explanation in the film, which is quite thought-provoking. When watching these scenes of bullying Fox, the audience's heart is hanging, as if waiting for something bad to happen, but actually, there is none. This utopian temperament that does not distinguish between right and wrong makes people feel more desperate, because there is no emotion for resistance and revenge. Foss was like a throw pillow and vent ball on which an emotional fist hit and bounced back limply, without any strength.
He has only one buddy with whom he plays the war sand table, the childish war sand table is a metaphor, and Fox never grew up, he was always a little boy. The incompatibility with the co-workers comes from his lack of confidence in himself, the teasing of the co-workers stems from the topic of sex, and the more he hides and timid, the more presumptuous they are, after finding his girlfriend, Fox is working for his girlfriend. There are also co-workers at the station, but because he himself has changed, the attitude of the co-workers towards him has also returned to normal.
Even in open-minded northern Europe, Foss is regarded as a big monster by his neighbors. Without a girlfriend, he is always spied on and speculated to be a pervert and a pedophile. When he finds a woman, he truly becomes a man. , he returned to the mainstream life and became a freak who was not rejected by others.
Foss saw very clearly that his girlfriend was more ill than him, it was her pain that inspired his potential, his patience and humbleness all came in handy, that wasn't love, it was just deep pity, But unexpectedly, he healed himself, and he became a real man, a heart-warming man. When he accepted her rejection, but silently fulfilled her wish, he truly fell in love.
In the end, whether or not his girlfriend got on the plane with him to go to Egypt is no longer important. What matters is that he completed his transformation in the process of love. A soft man becomes a warm man.
