(insert music radiohead- no surprise)
In French class, I learned about roommates and put a clip from a movie, and I was instantly attracted by every character with distinct personality. When I got home in the evening, I came to read it in one breath, as if I followed the hero to study abroad again. The high-value protagonists, as well as the heroine of "Amelie", are completely different temperaments.
If you've ever lived alone in a foreign land, this film will surely stir your nerves and memories with laughter. If not yet, let's follow the protagonist on an exotic adventure together.
Facing the graduation of the college male protagonist, in order to successfully get a civil servant position, he needs to master Spanish and be familiar with the Spanish market, so he decided to go to Spain to participate in the one-year Erasmus program (a young student exchange program for European countries) to study economics. Although Europe is very small, from France to Spain is like a Chinese trans-province, but the language and culture of the transnational are always very different. After a lot of struggle, I finally made up my mind.
After kissing her girlfriend goodbye at the airport, her mother asked at an inopportune time before parting: "Is this really the best choice? Are you sure you want to go?" The male protagonist had to bid farewell to his mother in a hurry. After separation, he still did not dare to look back and cried and became an idiot.
When I came to Barcelona and walked down the street with my luggage, why are the names of these metro stations so strange. The strange subway station name that I couldn't remember in Paris instantly became friendly and easy to remember.
In Barcelona, the place recommended by relatives could not continue to live temporarily. In the end, I could only ask for help from a French doctor I met at the airport. I had to find a house and move out quickly. Then there are the scenes of being interviewed by roommates from the UK, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain.
Rigorous German roommate with a serious face: okay, what do you expect yourself to be in five years? Ask this question. British girl asked: Do you like horseback riding? ...
The English accents of various countries are mixed with French and Spanish, and wonderful sparks collide around the dining table. The male protagonist's inner OS: Watching their noise is like deja-vu (deja-vu scene), it seems that I have known each of them since I was a child, and I decided in my heart that this is where I want to live, as long as they are willing to accept I'm a roommate.
10,000 words are omitted here. No further spoilers, let's go and watch the video, and confess the Chinese and French bilingual resources of station B.
Highlights from the movie:
In the 2002 movie, when the apartment was still on a landline, the male protagonist's mother called him, the British girl received it, and the girl who didn't speak French immediately looked at the picture next to the phone and said, "Wait, I'll see how to give it to him. You spell this sentence." Then he finished the French sentence in English: "He is not a debtor, he is fat at the party."
The male protagonist, Mama, said in French, "Oh, oh, he's not here, then let him call me back when he comes back from school."
The lady doesn't understand French.
The male protagonist Mama struggled to say in English: "Tell him, call me after la fac!" (Author's note: la fac means school in French)
The hostess looks stunned after f*ck??? She can only pretend to be calm: Okay, he will call you after fac.
Jokes about language and culture, stereotypes of people from all over Europe, foreign students with different personalities living in loving apartments, about the hero's mental journey in a foreign country, about youth, it is generally a very interesting and relaxing movie Comedy drama.
The male protagonist finally typed "L'auberge espagnole" (Spanish apartment) on the keyboard. He said, I am not what I am now, I am him, he, him, him, him, him; I am also her, her, her, her, her. The screen quickly flashed everyone I met in Spain.
Yes, everyone in life affects us to a greater or lesser extent.
You are no longer the person you were before you left.
