Whenever I watch such films that reflect the life of the elderly, I always have a thought about what my life will be like when I grow old, from "Flying Over the Nursing Home" to "Robot Uncle" and then here "Robot and Frank", from the present tense to the future tense, this kind of film can always give people a deep understanding, the bits and pieces in the film are delicate and real, and should be classified as a near-future film, although it depicts the future Movies have few high-tech elements. The sci-fi elements do not bring too many novelties and surprises. They are only reflected when technology is needed, but this is what I think gives the movie a very good sense of reality.
The film tells the story of Frank, an old man who is unwilling to live a peaceful life. His life experience can be described as "colorful". He is not only a master of the beam who often steals home accessories stores, but also a lonely old man with amnesia. His family life is a mess, and he lives after retirement. I can't take care of myself. My son often goes home to visit my father, but still ends up complaining. My daughter travels around the world and calls me to greet her. My wife is divorced. The library administrator, the filial son saw his father's messy life and bought a robot hoping to help the old man's life. The plot develops to this point, and then it is natural that the old man never likes it, then likes it, and then can't live without it, and even the daughter who returned from afar came back and turned off the robot. Frank finally started a fire. Compared with "Flying Over the Nursing Home", the movie is less than that. The desolation that no one asked about. When I first watched it, I thought it was a movie similar to "Flying Over the Nursing Home" and "Uncle Robot", which explored the lonely life of the elderly in their later years and reflected the social problems of empty nests for the elderly, but after careful inspection, it seems to be different. Because the United States is not a different Asian country in the background, the elderly in Western society generally live with their children, and the children in the movie did not abandon their fathers. The son worked tirelessly every week, and the daughter went to her father to take care of her father. , Although the divorced wife Frank has forgotten him, she still silently guards and pays attention to him. It can be said that the family cares a lot for the father. The film should be about the lonely life of the elderly in their later years. Personal feelings It doesn't cover other aspects too much, and the moment when Frank turns off the robot to clear the memory in the film is the biggest climax of the film, which is very touching. And the contemplation that comes from this is whether we are like in the movie when we are old, and is there such an artificial intelligence robot that accompanies us? I don't think this is a bad thing. When my family can't be with me, having such a robot that can chat and take care of the elderly may make our old age no longer lonely
. In fact, let's take a look The movie does not need to bring too many social demands into its own. It is good to look good. What "Robot and Frank" brought me is such a touching and contemplative. Another translation of this movie I like even more—— True Core Companion
