The Catholic church in the remote mountainous area of ​​India, the nun mother who never contacted the child, the three brothers who are completely different from the appearance to the spirit of life and dislike each other (at first glance, they are not born from a mother and father). In the contradictory cultural area, the deep identity and family bond are gradually unraveled. The three Doubi brothers understood that their mother's love was better than their family's love, and their family love was sublimated into a noble spiritual friendship as they had longed for in the moonlight of Debussy.

There is a very meaningful shot in the film: the camera swept across a carriage, and the supporting roles who were originally in different time and space were separated and juxtaposed under the same time and space, living their own unique and ordinary life. It implies that the separated individuals in the unified time and space in the world live a dull and single spiritual life of solitary self.

So she left the little car that belonged to her, embraced the world, and became a harmonious and different entity in the world.

The ending of the film is also very interesting. The three brothers boarded the train back home one after another and threw away all their luggage, including the extravagant suitcase. The beginning of the film is He did not hesitate to give a big close-up of the English abbreviation on the box, which is a specific symbol of the blood that maintains the original relationship between the three brothers. However, no matter what country, the growth of the brothers is always accompanied by jealousy, suspicion, and disputes. , There is also a playful expression on the three funny people in the film. The three people who abandoned the box finally abandoned this layer of blood ties and decided to be "true" friends. The three wore different suits, with expressions on their faces. Different decorations (glasses, gauze, band-aid, beard) finally faced their similarities and differences calmly. The

three brothers finally found their spiritual Messiah, and the carriage was changed from melancholy blue to festive red. The little train of India shuttles through the music of the Champs Elysees.

The Darjeeling Limited quotes

  • Francis: I only remember certain details, but from what I've been able to reconstruct, it was raining, I was going about 50 miles an hour as I went into a corner, did some wrong steering, wheels went out from me, and suddenly, "Whoo", skidded off the road, slammed into a ditch and got catapulted 50 feet through the air. Little particles of glass and debris were stinging my face as I flew. And for a second, there was just total silence. Just... Then BAM! The bike crashed to the ground, exploded and caught on fire, and then I smashed into the side of a hill with my face. I was driving home. I live alone right now. Anyway, two joggers ran up and started digging out all the dirt that was jammed inside my mouth and my nose and my ears. My brain had stopped, and my heart had stopped, so technically I was dead at this point. They did all the procedures exactly right, as a result of which I'm still alive.

    Jack: Boy.

    Peter: Wow.

    Francis: The first thing I thought of when I woke up was, I wish Peter and Jack were here.

  • Jack: You wanna read a short story I wrote in France?

    Francis: How long is it?

    Jack: What?

    Francis: How long is it?

    Jack: How long is it? Never mind. Forget it.
