After watching the film after that is a niche film, the director is drawn semi-autobiographical shooting. The director led his family to complete the filming in his mother's home. But it is not his mother who plays Krissia, but a certain aunt, and his mother plays Krissia's sister.
This film is an American independent film with no celebrities and no major productions. American independent films refer to low-cost American films produced without the investment of major Hollywood film companies. Director Trey Edward Shults played the role of the son of the old aunt Klixia in the film, and it was he who yelled out "You are not my mother" at the end. In real life, Trey Edward Shults was indeed forced to abandon the movie he loved and went to study business as the movie said.
After watching the movie, I think it's not bad, some points are still get, which can touch people's hearts.
Let me talk about the outline of the
story first: the story happened in a house, or there was no ups and downs at all, but it was confined to a house with more than a dozen people. It is necessary to highlight the key points of different parts of the film and put it all together. The full interpretation of this movie is actually not simple. The protagonist of the story is of course Aunt Krisha. It is estimated that she has been away from home for many years and returned to her sister's house to reunite with her family for Thanksgiving.
As the plot unfolds, the relationship between this old aunt who has been away for more than ten years and her family is deduced through dialogue. He didn't like her brother-in-law, and communicated with her that her sister always likes to adopt stray dogs, even if he doesn't like it, she won't be very opposed. It seems like a metaphor here, she is a stray dog.
Once abandoned my son and family, I don't know what to pursue, maybe it's love, maybe it's because I'm too degenerate, drinking and drugging. Now when I come back, facing the people in this big house, I am very close to myself, my sister, my niece, my nephew, and even my own son and mother. However, she was always like an outsider, unable to blend into it.
While the family was sitting in a group, she ran to the room and drank a large bottle of wine, got herself drunk and took the turkey out of the oven. As the turkey fell to the ground and the whole story reached a high point, Aunt Krisha couldn't control herself anymore. She wanted her son's love and mother's love, and she wanted their understanding. After repeatedly taking drugs and drinking, she seemed to lose control and shouted directly at her son, "I am your mother, you were born in October, why didn't you hug me, why didn't you love me." After his son Trey said, "I am not your son", he was completely set ablaze and started arguing, throwing plates, and calming down. The camera was placed on Klisha's face, tearful eyes and trembling face, and the movie ended.
Analyze the relationship between Aunt Krisha and everyone:
1. Her sister who has not given up, seems to be taking on the role of rescue.
In sharp contrast to Aunt Klisha is her sister Bobie. Like many ordinary people, she has undertaken to support the elderly and nurture the offspring, and encourage and support each other with her partner. She gave birth to four children, helped her sister Krisha raise her son, and adopted twelve stray dogs. She took on some of the responsibilities that Krisha should have assumed. She loved all people, her own Family, mother and sister. Of course, she has paid the most. Maybe someone like her, just around her family from morning to night, is like a firefighter, but she has also gained the most. If you give love, you will definitely be able to reap love. The whole family gathers together neatly, eats, and talks. Of course there will be quarrels and puzzles, but all of these are the norm in life.
2. The lover Richard, the son and the mother who forgot her on the phone-like a mirage
facing the mother who hasn't seen her for many years, seems to have forgotten Krisha, although her sister keeps in her ears As a reminder, she is Krishna and she is back. And Klisha also looked deeply at her mother and her old mother and said, Mom, I am Klisha and I have come back. And their mother seems to have forgotten this person, and she seems to know that she has a daughter. There is no positive expression, as can be seen from Aunt Klisha's expression, mother seems to have forgotten her.
Among the big family, Klisha didn't seem to find the love she wanted. There are two or three times in the movie that she calls a phone called Richard, but it is always a voice mail box. When she called for the first time, her expression and tone of voice showed that this person is very important to her, and only a couple or a loved one would have that kind of intimate tone. The last time she called was when she felt that she could not get love. She also recognized that Richard would not answer her call, never.
She is not unclear, she just indulges herself and let herself indulge in the world she imagined. She said, "I will never call you again. Every time I really want to talk, no one wants to listen to me." Maybe her usual performance is related to her lack of trust from her family, time and time again. I hurt my family again and again, and overdrawn my family credit time and time again until it disappeared. As for her so-called lover, the person she loves, others don't seem to care about her at all.
She longed for her son's hug and forgiveness. But the harm has been done, it does not mean that we have to accept you when you come back, and we have to forgive you. You have to make your own changes, you have to show your sincerity. Even imagine the injuries they have suffered.
3. I feel
that such a person has a lot in life, and I always feel that he is the most important thing, that his feelings are the most important thing, and that he is right. Of course, oneself is important. But a person, a person in society, must have restraint, commitment, sacrifice, and self. Of course, we must control the ratio. You must restrain your words and deeds, assume your responsibilities and obligations, and sacrifice a lot of yourself, but you must also know what you want to do the most when everyone leaves.
In sharp contrast, Aunt Klisha, when the family reunited downstairs, she could only live with a dog. This is the naked reality, anyway, when you feel that everyone has abandoned yourself, or can't feel love, is there a dog next to him who will never give up? Before, I didn't give love or hard work. It was like sitting and enjoying the fruits. How could it be possible? There is no love without regrets, and no hatred for no reason.
If people like Aunt Klisha abandon everything and get the love or career they want, it can be regarded as gaining. But from a practical point of view, this kind of person has been constantly abandoning and wanting to get it, and in the end they get nothing. The spirit has no sustenance, and can only ask for help from alcoholism and drug use to temporarily get rid of reality, but what happens when you wake up from alcohol? Back to reality, looking around, there is nothing but a filthy place and a desolate look. This kind of bad habit will make you addicted, it will make you fall into it, and you will never get out of it forever.
Of course Aunt Klisha must have experienced this stage before. In the process of chatting with her brother-in-law, she said that she was looking for herself and inner peace. It shows that she still wants to correct, want to return to reality, and want everyone's love. "I thought I came here today, and then I can do everything well. I looked at my mother and Trey, and I messed up everything." But the result was a failure, in the face of the lively, reunited family At that time, she retreated, wanting but unable to get it.
At the beginning of the movie, the camera looked at Aunt Krisha's face in the mirror from far to near. I have to say that the actor who played Aunt Krisha, especially the facial muscles in the mirror, twitched from time to time with the ups and downs of mood. At the end of the movie, I looked at her face in the mirror, eyes full of tears. There is also the background music that constantly changes with the plot, which seems to take away some plot and attention.
Everything is over, the movie is over, life is not yet. There are a lot of our shadows in this movie. If you want to pursue what you want and abandon your responsibilities, you will be abandoned sooner or later. Having assumed all your responsibilities and obligations, you will also be in these tedious processes. If you have something, that is the final peace of mind. After all, we are all ordinary people. Only after we have undertaken all the things we should bear, we use the time to be ourselves, stick to our love, and strive to balance restraint, self, commitment and sacrifice. The relationship between these four can finally be found. Love, be loved and inner peace.
When we are old or have to close our eyes, we do not regret it!
Movie classic line:
"Your life is a pursuit, which is a good thing! When a person has a pursuit, they should seize the opportunity. You have to pursue it when you are young, otherwise you will be trapped by reality. Be trapped by reality. Some very practical things are trapped."
Her brother-in-law said, "You think you can enter other people's lives at will. That's wrong."
"While you endure being better than your wife, she may not be able to endure you either. Because this is what The way to get along."
"I will never call you again. You don't know what I went through, what I want you don't care about me at all."
