The film opens in Axel's dream and ends in his dream. The movie tells a story about dreams and dreams, dreams are not the same as dreams, and some dreams can be extended in dreams.
In the Cadillac showroom in Arizona, two love at first sight happened, Grace fell in love with the handsome Axel, while Axel fell in love with Grace's stepmother, the hot and sexy Elaine.
Elaine does not want to be a dignified and virtuous stepmother in the eyes of the world. She is loyal to herself, chasing love and dreams. She hopes to fly one day. There was a twinkle in her eyes as she spoke eagerly to Axel of her dreams, and they took off. At that moment, Axel knew that he was deeply attracted to Elaine and fell in love with her.
To this end, he gave up returning to free New York and stayed in Arizona to manufacture various aircraft. At this time, Grace was jealous and lonely. Looking at the two lovers, she could only stage suicide scenes again and again, playing the accordion from time to time, and chanting words she could not understand.
Finally, in a suicide game, the relationship between Axel and Grace has undergone a huge transformation. The relationship between the three of them is no longer tense and conflicted, and they begin to communicate and accept each other. At Elaine's birthday party, when Axel hugged Elaine in his arms, he saw Grace sitting on the roof, and at that moment he knew that he fell in love with Grace. However, when Axel confessed to Grace and proposed to run away together, Grace, who finally got what she wanted, chose to die.
She dances with the boy she loves, she gives him a globe and says she will give him the whole world, she whispers "I love you" in his ear. This kind of love seems to be inferior to the love of death itself. She planned everything, put on a veil, put on a wedding dress, and killed herself with a gun, which was tragic and desolate.
Maybe the moment when the dream becomes a reality, the dream is dying. Too much asking for nothing, no matter the cost, is the beginning of a tragedy. Because in the long-term vision, it has been beyond the limit of beauty, beyond the reality. The moment your dreams come true is the moment of shattering and loss. And this time, even if you search the world, you will never find a similar substitute.
Drifting over the snow, over Arizona, over the city of high-rise buildings, the red balloon that fell beside Axel was like something full of healing power in reality. And the illusory flounder that sometimes appears and sometimes disappears into the distance is like an unpredictable future. Life is interesting because we cannot foresee tomorrow. Gain, maybe lose. We experience sadness and joy with a healing heart.
Can I have a dream tonight? Dreams of upbeat Mexican music, a Cadillac soaring into the sky, a red balloon floating in the Arizona sky, and a flounder swimming toward the moon.
