The following is from the discussion between Ershu and friends: 1. Two ships appeared at the end. The ship with the Danish flag belongs to Danish students. Every year this ship will carry 80 students for free for a half-year trip. My friend used to be a member of the ship. The other (when Uncle Ba stared at the sea) belonged to the Danish royal family.
2. The climax of the alcohol plan, the pub where they were so drunk, although it looked like an ordinary bar, had a unique "brown bodegas" atmosphere that Danes would recognize. At the same time, this bar is close to a historic drama theater in Denmark. In the 1960s and 1970s, actors would go there to get drunk after work. Most of these people died from drinking and related diseases.
3. (This article is on imdb) The alcohol problem that this film focuses on comes from Winterberg's 19-year-old daughter, who unfortunately passed away after the filming started. The middle school and students in the film are exactly the school and classmates she was in before her death. In this sense, the film is probably a real to be or not to be torture, and the final drunken carnival, the final ecstatic rapture, what a catharsis! It is before death that we breathe the sweetness of life. Life is a drunk, death is a dream.
4. Martin inspires the students, you can kill yourself with a gun like Hemingway, or you can lead D-DAY like Churchill and lead a great victory in war. Director Winterberg once filmed a D-DAY with Lars von Trier and others. Perhaps this metaphor like "Austerlitz's Sun" is exactly Winterberg's own habit?
5. Although Danish high school life may seem easy to the Chinese, this is still a focus of domestic debate in Denmark: the mental problems of young people seem to be more and more common. Some voices called for lowering social expectations for young people. (Although such measures to promote equality are already very common, for example, students in public elementary schools cannot study after they go home. If a Chinese parent talks about one more topic, the teacher will call and criticize it because it is unfair to other children. Yes.) At the end of the film there is a slogan on the bus full of students-high school life is full of pain, but fortunately we are good at getting drunk.
6. My friend, a Danish who is not as "sensual" as me, started to cry uncontrollably as the "what a life" melody sounded at the premiere. After the screening, people stood up to applause Winterberg.
