So, an ordinary American family, a little bit different is that their family is depraved, the wife is depraved, and even the cute children are depraved!
If an American family is possessed by a declining god, that would be terrible! In the world, in those irrelevant places, there will be more families involved in this, and will be decayed in a series of declines.
Not only are the third world countries like Africa and Latin America suffering, but even Japan, a developed country, is inevitable! This is also the truth. Japan is very prosperous in front of African and Latin American countries. Therefore, this declining Japanese family with a suicide wife and a mute daughter can also transmit its decay to a few corners of Africa and Morocco. But if he encounters the American God of Depravity who he admires and is particularly close to, the Japanese God of Deterrence will be disturbed quietly, and the old scars of the soul will be scratched by the American God of Depravity again.
The director is from a foreign land, and he has the vigilance to criticize the US government, so he stood from the perspective of American civilians for a while and said: Those of you who are officials, you are fighting all over the world, like to protect the rights of our superior citizens. , But in fact, you bureaucrats, how do you protect us and our children? ! ! Finding an ambulance is so difficult, my wife and children were almost delayed by you! !
It is said that watching this movie is easy to think of "Crash". Indeed, I naturally thought of it at the scene, and even the "God's Viewpoint" shot in the last mid-air was consistent. But maybe it was because my viewing environment was not good at the time, the air conditioner was so hot to me, and the scenes of movies that went to Africa were so hot, so it affected my mood, so that watching this movie didn't feel like "Crash" at all.
In fact, this three-stage and entangled model is really old-fashioned, and even the director’s own previous works have been used over and over again (it seems that he is obsessed with this structure, and he can’t tell things without this structure. Similar). So it really didn't surprise me in form. To make a three-stage style, mainly including "Pulp Fiction" and "A Rainstorm Is Coming", this film is difficult to surpass.
I saw someone saying: The conflict in this film has nothing to do with language (or language barrier and its derivatives).
Well, it really means to be relevant. The Americans in the same car all speak the same language. American government officials, media and ordinary people also speak the same mother tongue. I haven't seen how much they understand, understand and reconcile each other.
In fact, language and cultural differences are both a guise, and the difference in the interests of the stations is the fundamental. Not to mention Americans, Africans, and Japanese, not to mention language and cultural differences, as long as they have common interests, people on earth can quickly transcend planetary differences with Martians, reach alliances, cross shoulders, and have a deep understanding of each other. Fight against the people of Pluto together! So there is no need to use the language barrier theory thrown out by the Bible long ago as a cover.
Even your darkest and brightest children have learned English, spoke the same language, and are fully immersed in American culture. They all advocate unscrupulous and open-minded "communication" and "cultural tolerance", and their interests do not stand. Go together, everything is still free of discussion.
Well, the "language" I said is the meaning of ordinary language (but it does not involve the extremely derived "language" of Saussure, Levi-Strauss, and Lacan), I think the Bible Tower of Babel The original meaning here should be very superficial.
