There is such a French film that tells a story about prejudice, but it was applauded and popular, and it accidentally broke the record of the French historical vote king.
Some netizens commented: A French humorous sketch that makes people laugh, and the most sincere comedy of the year.
His name is: "Welcome to the North"
France, Provence (south).
Philip, a postmaster who has served for more than ten years, has a beautiful wife and an explosive son. His wife loves him very much, but his wife is a little depressed. Their unchanging life needs some changes and passion.
So a cross-regional transfer has become the best life regulator at the moment. In order to be transferred to the south where his wife is satisfied, Philip did not hesitate to pretend to be a disabled person. Unfortunately, he was exposed and forced to transfer to a small town in the extreme north of Bell. as punishment.
It is said that, in the eyes of the Parisians, except for the Parisians, the rest of the earthlings are country bumpkins.
Just like this kind of regional prejudice, the north is a proper place of terror for southerners.
His wife sympathized with him, but was unwilling to accompany him into office.
In this way, Philip, alone, with fear of the north, unknowingly fell into thought wandering on the highway. Because he drove too slowly (only 50 yards), he attracted the traffic police. The traffic police were going to fine him. He forgave him when he moved to work in the North.
Then, Philip came to the small town where he took office, but met a group of lovely local people who were beyond his imagination. He felt the difference in language and living habits here, and of course there were all kinds of ironic accidents.
France, which advocates freedom, can always turn the little things of life into unconventional and interesting comedies through dislocation and irony, such as the classic comedy "Escape from Tiger's Mouth".
"Welcome to the North" also draws on the character setting of "Escape from the Tiger's Mouth". People from the north and south of different personalities meet, with different customs and temperaments. Through the deconstruction of dialects, harmony finally becomes a happy time.
Much of the film's humor comes from language differences and deconstruction. It is especially reflected in the scenes where Philip had dinner with his colleagues several times. The colleagues taught Philip to order food in northern dialect and swear it was too funny and too real.
There is also the rivalry between the old lady and the post office girl. Their dialogue and eyes are no different from the two contradictory people in our lives. It's true.
If you like French comedy, you like the relaxed and cheerful rhythm of the French, giving people a casual, natural humor and light happiness.
The funniest part of this film should be that Philip went with him in order to help Born refuse to drink when he was delivering the letter. Who knows that it can't stop the warm hospitality of the northern residents. They are both drunk, and then the two of them are like children. Sa Huan, riding bicycles on the street to compete with each other.
In the end, he was detained, but Philip shouted "I really like the North!"
The reason why the film is so popular is very simple. It is real, funny, relaxing and comfortable. The experience of watching a movie is as comfortable and comfortable as chatting with a good friend.
The most important thing in life is to be happy, to have a lover, a friend and company, and then every day we can play together freely, drink and sing. But to get a good friend is easy and simple, and difficult, and the first step is very important: put aside prejudice, try to accept the other party and yourself, is the starting point of happiness.
