recalled that before the holiday, there was a hot Internet rumor about a Chinese uncle who was desperately trying to transfer money to fraudsters. Compare this film with the American uncle, you, What are some contrasting feelings? Integrity and restraint?
-----Of course, the last Chinese old man also went to the United States, hahaha, interesting, did he go to NE?
In this film, a Korean War veteran + alcoholic + father + good old man, convinced that he has won the $1 million lottery jackpot, in order to receive the prize, he repeated several times and independently embarked on a journey from Montana to Nebraska , Although repeatedly intercepted and returned, but determined.
Because this winning letter is an old-fashioned magazine swindling trick, no one in the family believes in this award, but he is stubborn and can't stand the mushroom. unnecessary trouble.
During this journey, the two went to their father's hometown and visited many old friends, old acquaintances, and relatives. They encountered a lot of trouble, and they also tasted the warmth of the world. Money is the devil... But these experiences also brought father and son closer. relationship between.
Remember, this is the second award-winning film presented to you in black and white in recent years. The previous one was the 2012 Oscar Best Picture "The Artist", and it was a black and white film without sound!
The advantages of black and white are:
1. We can have a nostalgic vision (the people shown in the film are old, the things are old, and even the trick of winning the lottery is old-fashioned), and spend these 115 minutes with a relatively quiet perspective ;
2. Black and white gives people a sense of history. In the film, I visit old friends, look back on the past, look at the old house, listen to the old man talking about his father's past, and complain about those people in the cemetery who are in eternal sleep. They are all history and have been engraved. Imprints; in
the end, of course, winning the lottery was in vain, and the director did not have such comedy skills. He came up with an abnormal plot. Everything seemed to be very frustrating, but in order to honor his father, the son used his old car and paid for a half-new pickup truck. I also bought a new air compressor (a heart disease that my father has been thinking about for a long time), and then my father drove through the Acacia Street in the hometown and town, and was seen by many old friends and waved goodbye!
The film was shot in just 35 days. It's all over, soon! People, too...
Nebraska state scenery, Lincoln (Lincoln city) scenery, is shown in this film, we have seen BNSF and some buildings.
Too bad there's no Omaha, or maybe Piccolo's Steakhouse and maybe Warren?
