It was boring at first, and the lines were sometimes absent. It probably seemed to be a story between a wealthy family with very avant-garde decoration and an uncle who lived in the countryside.
Later, some things were delayed, so I continued to read it after a day, and I paid attention to the introduction before clicking on it. In 1958, the French/Italy co-production, oh, it turns out that it has been almost 70 years from now, no wonder it feels so unfamiliar.
After that, I watched it in a different mood and found the movie quite interesting.
Gerrard's home is a minimalist and highly post-modern mechanized build, with a vacuum cleaner that moves by itself, a rumbling kitchen, but what I like most are the two windows on the second floor that stand out against the flat wall, much like a pair of eyes, and That fountain fish.
Hulot's behavior is witty, whether it's blocking a fountain at a garden dinner, or talking about tying a dog leash to a neighbor's earring, or producing "sausages" in a factory. But it's most interesting to move the windows to let the birds catch the sun.
You can probably feel that the director is trying to express the conflict between Yu Luo's rambunctious attitude and the order of the Abe couple? I feel that although I have exaggerated Luo's (strange) style, it has a sense of drama... Who knows at first I thought it was a late dubbed mime. The actor's body expression is very authentic, and you can comprehend it by looking at it. There are also puppies echoing back and forth, and whistling to make people bump into pillars. There are too many details hidden behind the picture.
In the end, Gerald and his father smiled and shook hands and went home, which was a good ending.
