Dreaming of flying fish and cactus

The soundtrack of the movie changed little by little from absurdity to black humor. Just like the plot, the mother and daughter, who were hysterically hating each other, got better, and the naive boy grew up slowly in love that didn't understand decent values. He found that what he really loved was After the girl he once held a gun against, the girl chose to use the gun to end her own life. The acting madman is always inspired to imitate the plot performance in the movie, but it has never been recognized.

Grace followed behind Alxer several times and wanted to touch the close but not really close scenes. It was very distressing. She smelled her stepmother on Alxer, went to get the coffee brewed for Alxer, and the handkerchief in her hand was lit , his hands were shaking and he warned Alxer how dissolute his stepmother was, and even poured a can of milk on him, feeling how lonely this stubborn and eccentric girl was.
Looking at the person he loves, close at hand, but only on the mature and feminine stepmother. Grace is a tragic figure. She didn't want to become like her parents, she hoped that she would be reincarnated as a tortoise. In the end, she let go of all the tortoises she raised, and ended her own life in despair.

Alxer, his uncle says he's just a little boy, can't tell the difference between make love and fuck, when he was doing sales at Uncle's car company for the first time, he was attracted by Elaine, who was wearing tights and a good figure, and thought To help this old woman who can be his mother to fulfill her dream of flying, but after she really has a plane to fly, she finds that the one she wants to kiss is Grace, and the one who can really fly by herself is Grace.
"I had a strong feeling to see Elina, but she was like a thick cloud, and I saw you through it, and I found that I had a strong feeling for you." After discovering this emotion, even I want to take Grace and leave, no train no plane no door, and immediately escape from the window.
But Grace was entangled too much, how could she just walk away, she chose another way to escape these pains, what she had been longing for, suicide.

Wayward people always get a lot easily, and Elaine got Alxer easily. Day in and day out, the boy helped her build flying tools and wanted to take her to the Alaska of his dreams. Just like bullshit artist, Paul said, she is like blueberry pie, maybe it is delicious, it will be very fresh when you eat it, every bite is good, but when you eat it, your mouth is full of sharp needles... (That's roughly what it means , I watched one without subtitles, not very accurate) This woman seems to be naive all the time, naively talking about her dreams as a little girl, screaming and screaming like a child when she was flying in the air, naive and capricious. He will say that he wants to take a plane, and then he will take a train. He naively captures young boys who have never thought of the slowly developing relationship between his stepdaughter and his little lover.

In the end, the bullet passed through the mouth of Grace, who was wearing a white wedding dress, and the tree that had been photographed many times next to it also ignited. The Arizona dream ended in tragedy, and the little boy returned to the Alaska in his dream. Lost a part of myself and at the same time grew up.


life is nice, but maybe it's not that nice.

I like movies with complex emotional changes and a bit of fantasy, and there are many details in the movie that will feel good to chew over and over again.

Arizona Dream quotes

  • Axel Blackmar: [last English lines] After the storm, I couldn't say life was beautiful. But all I kept hoping for was the Eskimo boy of my dream to run out of one of these doors and hug me. And even though I no longer felt like a fish and realized I knew nothing, I was happy to be alive.

  • Axel Blackmar: But what's the point of breathing if somebody already tells you the difference between an apple and a bicycle? If I bite a bicycle and ride an apple, then I'll know the difference.
