The reality of life makes us breathless, we are like people who are about to drown, we can only swim towards the bright place, many people are able to float Out of the water to get a breather, but some people can't get out of the water no matter how hard they try...
The name of the movie "Submarino" doesn't mean a real submarine, it has nothing to do with the Beatles' "yellow submarine" . The title of the film is Submarino, which is actually a method of torture, in which the torturer's head is pressed into the water for torture. This implies that the protagonists live on the fringes of society, still trying to stick their heads out of the water to catch the glimmer of hope. Story Nick (Jacob Sedron) and his younger brother (Peter Plouberg, who has no name in the film), because of an unexpected tragedy, it becomes the haze of their future lives, and they are in their respective I am troubled and confused in my life, but I look forward to some turning points in my life. For them, they are looking forward to an opportunity to change the status quo, as if they are looking forward to surfacing to the surface to catch their breath, but the cruelty of reality makes them constantly struggling in the life of shit, and the surface of the water seems unreachable. distance.
In May, it's Hollywood's summer vacation time again. I've watched a lot of Hollywood movies recently. This movie makes me feel tired.
It can't be seen from the preview that this is a movie with a heavy theme, but the pure feeling of the opening makes you feel like you've seen the wrong movie. Nick and his younger brother have a mother who drinks heavily every day. For the newly born younger brother, he and his younger brother should take the responsibility instead of their parents. It is like a kind of expectation, and the new life is like a symbol of hope. It was beautiful, as pure and white as the title, but until the accident happened, the tragedy took away the life of the younger brother, and also made them both fall into the endless sin and couldn't extricate themselves.
The story is divided into two parts, which respectively describe the lives of the two brothers after the incident. The film does not deliberately intersperse the impact of the accident on them, but just let us follow it and enter their dark and lost lives. There is an angry grown-up Nick and a drug-addicted younger brother who is looking forward to some redemption, someone or any event to fill the void in their hearts. Although the two of them wandered on the fringes of society, the two brothers were not given up by society in the film (have to admire the perfect social welfare system of the Nordic countries). As the story develops, it's not hard to find that Nick and his brother are stuck in real life to some extent, but it's not hard to see from the film that they have always had a chance to get better.
They face the turning point of life contradictingly, and every time they have the opportunity to change, they still choose the path of grief, and they may be able to live a normal life by constantly destroying themselves. That's paradoxical, and it's not hard to see that they're constantly looking for some kind of spiritual redemption, but it ends up getting them deeper and deeper. But it can also be seen from it that they not only need peace in life, they are indifferent on the outside, but they are looking forward to the redemption of their hearts, but often when the opportunity comes, they always run in the opposite direction. So Nick faced the world with anger and indifference, while his younger brother used drugs to make up for the emptiness in his heart. The behavior that contradicted and contradicted reality, like Raskolnikov in "Crime and Punishment", indulged in sadness In the midst of mourning and mourning, use this to ease the guilt in your heart through self-torture and self-deprecation.
So some people were finally able to emerge from the water to breathe, and some people finally had no way to stop their resistance to reality. The last two people in the movie were redeemed to some extent and calmed down, but are they like what their brother and Nick did Generally speaking, there is no right or wrong in things, but when it ends, you can only really get out of the car? ! That decision was melancholy and a bit fateful, as if no one had ever faced the result of the tragedy, is it only possible to find the direction of light!? Or can I just keep struggling under the water with my head pressed by guilt?! In the end, who really came to the surface, and who was still struggling under the water?
The film is directed by Thomas Vettiberg, who mentions that he can't help but think of his "Horse Manifesto" with Lars Von Trier, but I won't introduce it here, and I like him in 2004. "Sex Pistol Club".
