The chattering of the problematic couple at the beginning of the film and the three chattering children may make people uninterested to watch it, but if you watch the beginning patiently, you will find that it is absolutely different, and this part is also this part. The soul of the film.
Family, children, giving love and being loved, life and death, these mysterious topics are perfectly interpreted between a wise old man who has reached the end of his life and three ignorant children.
It should be said that the screenwriter and director of this movie are very bold, bold enough to challenge the bottom line of the world. The part about lies is already deviant, but it also makes the three children fulfill their grandfather's wish and die on the beloved beach. Grandpa had a Viking funeral. Although this scene is also the least convincing part of the movie. The screenwriter and director formally conveyed the most difficult thing in life to the audience through this play. I believe that no one in Hollywood dares to shoot such a movie. When the viewer sees it, it is tenderness, it is the love of the children for the kind grandpa. At that moment, the viewer does not like the children to hope that it is just another prank of the grandfather. When the girl ignites the fire, they all look forward to grandpa Will jump up, but Grandpa is indeed dead, floating into the depths of the sea on a burning raft.
This isn't a didactic movie, it's a comedy movie, and after laughing, the viewer will find that something settles into his heart.
