I once served the King of England in a movie that seemed to be inappropriate at first glance, and thoroughly taught me what the cold humor of the Czech people is. This film reproduces the changes in Czech society before and after World War II through the life experience of a young waiter in an exaggerated and joking way. I am reading Tony Judt's "Post-war European History" for the past two days, and I have a little knowledge of the Czech society at that time, but all the changes in the film are lightly covered with spring and autumn brushwork, leaving only some small scenes. Terrifying to think about. There are two very typical characters in the film, one is Dieter and the other is the foreman of the Paris Hotel in Prague. "I have served the King of England." This is the foreman's claim to Dieter, and his image should be in Dieter's mind. For this reason, after he monopolized the medal awarded by the King of Ethiopia, he always boasted about it: I served the King of Ethiopia. It is a pity that he has never understood the fundamental difference between the two - a sense of honor and national pride. The foreman was caught for insisting on no Nazi salute, but he went from Bohemian to Slavic, from waiter to item. As a small person who started out from the bottom, he has only been instructed about wealth by a noble person he met by chance. It is difficult to blame him. All the frivolity and pomposity, and the pursuit of wealth and beauty are his highest dreams in this life. . It was not until he finally realized his dream of entering the wealthy in a satirical way in prison, and then after 15 years in prison, he finally woke up. Only by going through the red dust can we get all the lead. At the end of the film, he paid back the money he had deceived at first, and cleared himself in a reincarnation manner. He will still be moved by beauty, but he will only appreciate it with a light smile. He can endure loneliness, see through wealth and honor, and understand the plainness of life. From these aspects, he is lucky after all. In addition, Prague, if you have the opportunity, you must visit it. The medieval capital of magic has been fascinated for a long time.
