Is it weird? The shell I am talking about is human loneliness. The sense of loneliness is often mythological in literary works, and it can achieve quite beautiful drama. In reality, the lethality of loneliness is almost the face of Nora's life in "Broken English." This feeling of loneliness was definitely not expressed like this when it was formed. Why Nora became an older young woman is not important, what is important is whether Nora can go back now. The outbreak of loneliness is accumulated, simple loneliness is good, complex loneliness is poison.
Nora's beauty is not absolute, but the feminine taste is indeed clear. Nora's gentleness and harmony show that Nora may be an intellectual woman when she was younger, pursuing a high degree of perfection and transparent perception. Such an inference is reluctant, but the nature of human beings as social animals is the truth. Nora became more and more irritable, more and more gullible about men, and more and more confused about her behavior. The reason is not to find the necessary sense of belonging.
Everyone has such a desire and learns it, but this is not the case for Nora. Work is not a problem for Nora, and life is not pressure for Nora. This spiritual woman is still a powerful forerunner, and solving problems is the principle of doing my part. Therefore, she who perceives pain and embarrassment must find her belonging. For Nora now, love is very important, and it is equally important to get rid of the confusion in your heart.
Self, to some extent, should be called self. When this self is rich, even the poor will be quite generous. And this time when the self is barren, even the rich will be miserable. Therefore, at certain moments, self is more important than everything else. Here in Nora, the gap between ideal love and reality is the factor that caused Nora's inner loneliness to erupt. This cause and effect is no longer important in Nora's current life. Because the long-term loneliness is slowly cultivated by myself. When the shell in her heart is thick enough, she will feel pain.
The men in "Broken English" are hardly wicked. And the saddest thing is that Nora’s encounters with these unmarried men playing and married venting are not accidental. At first I thought that Nora’s refusal was the fatal problem for this woman. You know, the consequence of a person not learning how to reject the other person is always doing things he doesn't want, even if these things are often what he wants to meet. It's a pity that when they met, the other party was just the one in their own eyes. According to Nora's age experience, the first reaction must be a sensible refusal. However, what happened next was not Nora's original intention.
The reason why I can't refuse is not to crush the sense of loneliness. It's such a desperate risk, and the result is repeated damage. Nora understands that her problem is that she can't escape the hope of a fantasy dream of some kind of human nature. In fact, Nora's shell was just a hole in the beginning. Perhaps it was a certain failure of Nora, the youngest and most beautiful, or a certain kind of reverie destruction that turned into this extremely missing hole and became darker and darker. This black hole cannot be filled, only a shell can wrap her up. Although this is not the original intention of human existence, but can only helpless.
Director Zoe R Casaveze, like Nora, seems to be a witness to "Broken English". The female director used the most authentic and delicate context to express the problem of the emotionally lonely. From a social point of view, this is the fate experience of older youth. From the point of view of the emotional touch, it is actually a calm display of the helplessness of the lonely. Even if the slightly proud comedy factor, the disturbing romantic factor, and the pitiful black cruelty are all necessary for drama, the plain and true narrative is the director's clear goal. It is this story that reproduces the behavior of the lonely, rather than the flamboyant show of great sadness and joy, that moves people's hearts.
Nora's ending is very romantic, extremely romantic, so romantic that it is almost unreal. But it is this "false" ending that makes people feel warm. In fact, this ending is not for Nora, but for the lonely people in the world. The realistic style of the film is real enough, and the long-cherished wish of the film is to let people like Nora find their home and direction. A kind of belonging that combines reality and fantasy, a direction that has long been willing to be lonely but still hopes to move forward, a kind of spiritual comfort and inspiration for the lonely.
In fact, "Broken English" tells the story of the lonely, and it tells the strange things.
