Right at the beginning of 2020, let me say something to my yesterday self, why did you choose this movie to write about your post-viewing feelings?
Sometimes the world just gives us a fact and isn't ready to tell you why?
Especially bad news, instead of saying silence, we should say that we are shouting to ourselves, shouting that we don't even want to hear
The following contains spoilers
Dani, girl, she has a sister who is nagging all day long. In order to understand and help her sister better, she chose a student who is studying psychology. "The movie does not clearly point out, and I personally think it is inseparable." The movie begins one night, when Dani once again calls in anxiously to ask about the situation after receiving a message from his sister who is world-weary. This time, with parents in the message, Dani was even more disturbed.
Apparently, Dani couldn't get a reply to his inquiries. The abominable thing was that his sister didn't answer the phone, so Dani had no choice but to find his boyfriend Christian when he was unreliable.
Christian was drinking with the brothers, and he obviously knew Dani was going to be calling, and that's where the great scene unfolded. The director didn't give Christian a shot here at all. If it wasn't for the second viewing, he wouldn't be able to understand the director's intentions. He just wanted to express from Dani's single point of view that even the director didn't want to see Christian as a boyfriend.
Why?
1. After Dani received a message from his sister, he made the second big call to Christian, but he didn't answer
2. From the dialogue between Dani and Christian, we can clearly understand that what Dani wants should be a kind of comfort, that is, what girls often say "I tell you unhappy things, not a solution, but I want you to coax me."
3. Dani didn't mention his sister on the phone. Christian took the initiative to mention his sister. It can be seen that Christian is very impatient with Dani, and hoped that Dani would recognize the fact that he thinks it is right sooner, and forget that his sister is a need solved problem. Christian may really want to help Dani, but he's more trying to help himself with the call that interrupted his party.
If the above 3 points are acceptable, the following series of horrible and appalling things can be explained
Sure enough, after hanging up Christian and hanging up the phone, Dani's second phone call came while we were discussing Dani again. This time we could only hear her cry, heartbreaking and hoarse. It turned out that Dani received an unknown call. , bad news
Dani lost his entire family overnight because of his sister's insistence and took his parents away.
It was Dani's cry that brought our emotions further into the movie.
After a long time, because Dani lost all his family, it should be to get the attention of her boyfriend Christian "from the emotional point of view", she expressed her opinion about Christian going to the Yodelling Farm for half a month during the summer vacation to participate in a midsummer festival.
In order to appease her, Christian also brought Dani into his circle of friends and took Dani with him.
When she came to the room where the men were meeting, Dani wanted to take this opportunity to change her mood, but she didn't expect that Pell "invited a group of Christians to participate in his family's Midsummer Festival, which is a festival held only once in 90 years. In order to give back to the protection of nature for 90 years."
When I first saw Pell's sympathy for Dani here, my first reaction was that Dani's reaction was too much. Maybe this is the reason why we really can't empathize, we only judge each other's feelings from appearances. The second time I watched it, with the ending, every move Pell did makes me sick but helpless.
According to common sense, Dani's closest person in this room should be her boyfriend, but her boyfriend Christian only greeted and hugged Dani at the beginning and never spoke to her again. "It's not so much that Christian doesn't understand enough, it's better that Dani understands her boyfriend very well", after Christian and Mark left
Josh also felt embarrassed, so he also left
When he left, Pell told Dani for the first time that he felt the same way.
The real story begins slowly
Dani and his party arrived in Switzerland as scheduled and participated in the Midsummer Festival
I never thought that the first day of activities left everyone speechless, and every outsider had a different reaction.
