When I saw the name of Suicide Store, I thought it was a horror movie. After all, the name alone can make people think.
"Suicide Store" is a typical song and dance genre film. The first attraction of the film is his unique singing voice, and the song and dance also run through the whole film and blend with the plot. Through the philosophies of life and death through the mouths of singers and dancers, it gives people a more profound experience. And his name embodies the French cold humor.
At the beginning of the film, pedestrians preparing to commit suicide, gray pigeons falling from the sky, etc., all render a desolate and sad scene. Although there is no background, the whole city is lifeless and lifeless, and people in the town do not want to find a solution but choose to commit suicide when they encounter problems. The solution given by the government to this kind of behavior is a high fine. Because of the high fines, these all showed the distortion of people's psychology and the wrong social atmosphere at that time. The film's interspersed singing and dancing and the unique black humor of the French make the sharp black of the story itself to be resolved.
This grotesque style and dark animation comedy cannot escape heavy dark circles, emaciated limbs and a decadent look, but the male protagonist Alan is completely different, he has rosy eye circles, and he will laugh at birth. parents and siblings in contrast. And all this is destined to be a different boy, the "Superman" who saves the town.
"Suicide Shop" is a typical three-stage structure. It follows the development of the plot and the time line. First, it tells people that this is a musical, and then a passerby who wants to commit suicide will lead out the main characters one by one; the second is to be a male. When the Lord grows up and wants to change the social status quo, he encounters some resistance and his solution; the last is the ending. The first half of the film is full of bad taste, but the latter is abruptly turned into a family-friendly ending. These are the usual routines of genre films. Although we also know that the male protagonist will resolve the conflict and the ending will be reunited, we can’t help but be attracted by it and want to see what the male protagonist does next. The core of genre films is business. Movie.
Although there is a suspicion of too much singing and dancing in this animation, because it is an animation with a large audience, its alternative preaching method can also be understood.
