There is no reliable character in the whole film except Napoleon, but the tone of the film is as quiet as a documentary. It can also be said to be a spoof and quiet. After entering this American country town, all people have their own specialties. Napoleon’s personality, Napoleon is a middle school student, but every day he plugs in a school bus full of elementary students to go to school. When others are not paying attention, he takes out a superman doll and wraps it up outside the car. He always squints his eyes when talking. The voice is monotonous and weak, and there is a special kind of impatience. One of the family members, kip, is his older brother. The only thing he does every day with glasses is to chat with MM on the Internet. He likes to brag in a sissy voice when he speaks. The only friend, Pedro, is a new Mexican. He has a weak tone when speaking, and only his eyes move. Napoleon likes him because he only believes that he has a very hot model and girlfriend. He is owned by him. The classmates think that the bullshit is an idiot, Napoleon has a sense of superiority in front of him, a sense of comfort, and Napoleon's uncle, who likes to use a tattered video recorder to record the appearance of throwing a football. There is something incomprehensible to others in 1982. Obsessed, because he felt that if he returned to that time he could become a great football star and would have a lot of money. For this reason, he also bought a time machine from the Internet that could go back to 1982 and could only power his own JJ. And Deb, who later became Napoleon's girlfriend, also created a weird and funny character for her. She likes to make her own handicrafts that she thinks is fashionable. By selling these to save her future university tuition, it is here that she is self-produced. I met Napoleon in the process of selling, and dumped the things Napoleon called rubbish to Napoleon because of emotional stimulation. These ridiculous scenes are in a small town in the western United States. The daily unfolding, the whole film is very delicate, the jokes are spread out one by one through these details, and the exaggerated idiots like comics are constantly provoking your superiority one by one, making you laugh and making you think about yourself. Have the same idiot behaviors appeared in campus life? If not (which is almost 100%), congratulations, laugh to your heart's content, this kind of laughter will be as pleasant as Napoleon in front of Pedro.
As an independent film, it is more exquisite and distinctive. This should be attributed to the investment of 5 million US dollars. The ample funding allows them to complete the entire film in a more delicate manner. I think of the French classic film "Angels Love Beauty", which also has the same sentiment for life and emphasizes the subtle personalities of the characters. As for whether the director is really affected by this film, it is not known.
