I didn't know the term "dachshund" existed until I saw Todsso Lenz's "Dachshund" (2016). The dachshund in the film is so cute, she walked past the White House, past Major League Baseball, past Florida beaches, past the Great Smoky Mountains, past Arizona Fossil Forest, past the Grand Canyon, past Alaska's ice and snow, past spring, summer, autumn, and winter, past the film This is a heart from childhood to old age.
This is exactly what makes the film so interesting. There are four related stories. The dachshund accompanies them in every process of their lives. The same dachshund, with different owners, will of course have different attributions. Labels can be posted as you like, but what remains the same is the comfort and loyalty that Dachshunds bring to them.
The little boy Remy suffers from leukemia and needs regular blood exchange treatment. Since his father came home with a dachshund, he has become the whole and only companion of his life. He played the flute to it, and the dachshund listened carefully. But the dachshund can only be kept in a cage, and Remy secretly lets him out, only to be stopped by his mother, played by French actress Julie Delby. Remy has a lot of puzzles, such as why the dog should be sterilized.
The gentle-looking mother frightened him by saying that she raised a dog in France when she was a child. When she was walking outside, she was raped by a stray dog. As a result, the pups born had genetic diseases and could only be massacred. According to his father, the dog needs to be domesticated to make it human. In this way, of course, Remy wouldn't dare to let it run outside, but it's ok at home.
While his parents were out, Remy let it out, made a big havoc in the Heavenly Palace, tore all the pillows on the sofa, fluffed the fluff, and laid it on the floor, just enough for him to sleep with the dachshund dog, and when he woke up, it was barking and hungry. Now, eat my favorite chocolate. I don't know how much I eat, I can eat as much as I can. When the parents came back, the big thing was bad, the dachshund pulled a whole street full of diarrhea. Mommy said to Remy you know, chocolate is poison to it.
This made little Remy very sad. The dachshund depended on him for life and brought him happiness that he had never had before. He really couldn't bear it, but it had to be sent to treatment, just like his treatment, and he had to be euthanized if necessary. At this time, Mommy stroked his face and said. Remy said I will never forget it. Mommy said we're all going to die, that's why we're together. The child stared blankly and said, "Is death... a good thing".
Greta Gerway , as an intellectual and elegant girl in American independent films, this time she played the role of the girl Dowden, and she transformed into a house girl with glasses, weird, wooden, a rib, and shiny. She works in the animal hospital. When little Remy's father left, she quickly came out with the dachshund being treated. Wherever she went, of course she took it home. She thought she could cure it. For her, it is a kind of stubbornness of self-confidence and ability. The dachshund Baba in her mouth really recovered.
On this day, she took it to the supermarket and met Brandon, who was also a strange boy from middle school. This is the face of Hollywood movies in the 30s and 40s. Dowden said that I had found you on Facebook, and of course other classmates, and I brought Baba to buy dog food. Brandon looked at it and said it looked like poop shit.
Weird girls will always fall in love with weird men. She asked if she could leave an email and chat when she had time. Brandon said lightly, no, he's free now. Oh well. I'm going to Ohio tomorrow, are you going? This... what are you going to do. Brandon glared at her and said to buy methamphetamine... Of course, I was joking. I see.
Immersed in the joy of meeting Brandon, she touched Baba and muttered a few words to herself, like comfort and expectation for herself. In this way, Dowden carried her Baba into Brandon's broken car and drove all the way.
The funny thing is, they see three Mexicans of three generations holding up a hitchhiker sign, so come on up. Mexican guys say America is too lonely. Dowden said that there are drug dealers everywhere in Mexico, and the law and order is not good. Older people say that the United States is not as lively as we are in Mexico, too lonely, a world full of bears, and Americans give up easily.
Well, the debate ends here. Because they want to stay together for one night. In the room, the three Mexicans were playing and singing. The child's singing was very touching. It also moved Brandon, who was secretly injecting heroin. "Death is a part of life, but it can't come so quickly." He limped down. The next day, we continued to move forward. On the way, the three of them wanted to get out of the car. Seeing them dumbfounded, I was so happy that I couldn't bear them. Dowden said, I wish you a good job.
Brandon arrives at the home of his younger brother Tommy, who has Down syndrome, and who is married to Aibo, who also has Down syndrome. Of course they love dachshunds. Aibo said that he never wanted to go out, and Dowden insisted on taking her out to talk.
Tommy, who was addicted to playing games, was stopped by Brandon. He said that his father died of alcoholism. Tommy didn't believe it. He said that he came to see me a few days ago, why did he die? He didn't believe it, Brandon said, father had siblings, they told me. Tommy said this was his home too. Yes, he had a lot of homes, but he really died.
When saying goodbye to them, Dowden said just let Baba stay with them, it belongs here, Brandon said yes. Tommy and Aibo dance happily. With the company of dogs, they will not be alone. But the dachshund was doomed to be lost. As for whether Dowden and Brandon can be together in the end, it can be seen by looking at the silly girl's heartfelt smile in the car. This kind of smile is destined to belong only to love.
Danny DeVito is no longer the rat guy from "Dragon Brothers", and he's not just a squat middle-aged man David, he's a big-name film school teacher, and of course he's a bit of a Asthma, because he is too fat and lack of exercise, the doctor advised him to be careful, if this continues, it will be life-threatening, but he does not take it seriously.
The most important thing for him is that he thinks that the only thing in life is his own movie script, but after calling countless times, the other party always says that the producer has not read it yet, or that if he reports a good news, you can rewrite it again. If it is written according to the producer's intention, it will definitely succeed. It's really nonsense. Rewriting it is also good news. How not to be depressed, how not to block the heart. Fortunately, there are dachshunds.
Whether it's a student who is interviewing or a student who is teaching by himself, it is unprecedentedly difficult to serve. You ask him to tell him a favorite movie, and he just doesn't tell you about it, and the old man vomits blood with anger. The most irritating thing is that he also received complaints from students that he was too passive in his lectures, and the black female leaders asked him to be more active. He was speechless. I don't know what is positive and what is negative. This is really a big problem.
The bigger problem is that the school has invited an up-and-coming director who graduated from the film school. I didn’t expect this weirdo to say that I didn’t learn anything here. Their roars of laughter. David couldn't sit still any longer and walked away. Then, the guy on the stage continued to sarcastically say "Is that Mr. David still there?", which caused another burst of laughter.
Ok. Despite the sarcasm, David wasn't a vegetarian either. That night, I called my "lover" in the distance and could only leave a message, "Carlo, 19 years, I love you." The next day, he came to the school and continued to meet the students. The students said how good their script was, and David said that no matter how good it was, it always had to be a story, or your story. The student was so angry that he ran away, and several students were waiting for him, and they bombarded together, saying that the school was about to fire David, and that people who didn't understand shit should be fired.
Hehe, at this moment, the dachshund appeared staggeringly. It was a hero with fuzes all over its body, which made them stunned. Of course, the special police would kill it, and the detonator came up carefully and greeted the dachshund. When David came out, the police wanted to check the documents, looked at his ID card, and let him go away. Of course, it was just a little prank by David, and he didn't want to go back to school anyway. Who felt his sorrow? Maybe only dachshunds know.
Alan Posty plays Anna, a sickly blind old lady, an old painter who always wears a pair of wide sunglasses and is as mysterious as Wong Kar Wai. She was stubborn, silent, and when something happened, she shouted at the black maid. The greatest joy every day is that she takes the dachshund "cancer" out to sit and bask in the sun.
On this day, her granddaughter Zorlu, who hadn't come back for a few years, came back with her black boyfriend Fantasy. She said that his name was Andrew, and Fantasy was his stage name. He held art car shows. The old lady said that I stopped painting for a long time. She recommended him, and the cool black guy got impatient and went out with the dachshund.
Zorlu took out what looked like an extra-large goose egg from his bag, saying that it was brought back from a trip to South Africa, it was a local totem, it would bring good luck to you, and it could also be used as a piggy bank. The old lady let the maid take it. The old lady is quite a cheerful person in the face of her granddaughter's squeak, let's talk, how much is it this time. 10000. The old lady wrote the check, she took it, 100,000... Too much excitement.
The old lady said lightly, go on, I won't live long anyway. This struck a fragile heartstring of my granddaughter. She said that I was not sure whether he loved me or not, and always felt that he was perfunctory to me. At this time, Fantasy came in with the dog. As soon as he came in, he shouted to leave, like a gust of wind coming and going like a gust of wind.
The old lady came out to sit with the dog as usual, but dreamed that many little girls were talking to her, saying that this is your different life, and they were greeting her kindly, but in the end she even said something like "Everything has a beginning, and it also has a beginning." There is an end." She woke up, it turned out to be her "cancer", ran away, and had sneaked onto the road. The saddest thing was that she witnessed its death. No! No! No! It also cost the old lady's life. Who asked her to give it such an unlucky name.
In the film, the dachshund is not just a bystander. In fact, it has transformed into a human symbol, a love target, and a metaphysical messenger, which carries people's emotions and sustenance. Sometimes, someone will misunderstand it, or even abandon it, but it always follows human closely. Loyalty is not stupidity, but divine love. Finally, the art exhibition of the black guy Fantasy finally opened, and the dachshund dog was imprinted on the main board wall, as if it hadn't left.
