The story of the seventh paragraph will be told to you.
The old female singer came to the New York Hotel where she had stayed in the old days, and the female singer hurried by wearing an overcoat and carrying her luggage. Upon entering the hotel, the picture begins to darken, with the elderly waiter carrying luggage for the female singer and the lame waiter walking downstairs. The female singer took the elevator upstairs, only a beam of light shone on the railing of the elevator, and the pattern was chaotic and ancient, showing the prosperity of the hotel.
The female singer felt that the room was too noisy near the road, so she asked the waiter to change another room for her, when she went upstairs, the waiter took the female singer's luggage and coat and limped upstairs to arouse the sympathy of the female singer, after entering the new room, the picture immediately changed from dim to bright, the female singer looked at the car traffic outside the window in front of the window, and told the waiter that she hoped that the world would be quieter. Before the waiter left, she asked the waiter to bring some flowers to place in the room, preferably her favorite violet.
So the waiter brought her a bouquet of violets, and said that the bouquet of flowers was not bought by herself but found in the elevator downstairs, the female singer was very surprised to accept the violet, but the waiter suddenly had a nosebleed, the female singer wiped him in a panic, and when she returned with medicine, the waiter had already left the room.
Immediately afterward, the female singer wrote a letter and placed it on her pillow, dressed in a gorgeous white dress with a violet in her hand, and opened the window to jump off the building, and just as she was finishing her appearance, the waiter knocked on the door again.
The waiter's dining cart pushed champagne and explained the origin of the violet to the female singer, who invited the waiter to enjoy the champagne together. The two sat on the edge of the bed, and the female singer still seemed to be entangled in the inner world of contradictions and sadness, so when the waiter asked to close the window, the female singer agreed. But the waiter's back in the backlight was repeated twice: How can you stand it? I really don't understand how you can stand it? The back slowly disappeared until nothing, the female singer realized something, quickly got up to check, and found that the waiter had jumped off the building to kill himself.
At the end of the film, the elderly waiter arrives to check on it but says there is nothing downstairs, closes the window with consent, and the female singer finally smiles.
Brain-burning moments
At this time, do you not know what this film is about?
Don't worry, let's take a closer look
First, we need to remember a few key words: mirror, violet, young, sad.
In fact, this film is about a female singer who has lost her life and comes to the New York Hotel where she once stayed and wants to end her life here. The young waiter of the hotel with a leg disability secretly admired the female singer and finally fell in front of her by the floor-to-ceiling window that was open. Female singers are able to re-examine the value of life and give up suicidal thoughts.
However, this lame waiter does not really exist, he is the product of the female singer's fantasies. Why? The waiter appears in the mirror many times, and the world in the mirror itself is a virtual image, a false one. When the waiter had a nosebleed, the female singer handed the tissue with violet pulp in her hand, and the waiter left the room without leaving any blood. Finally, the waiter jumped off the building to commit suicide, and when the female singer returned to the bedside, the dining car disappeared, and the elderly waiter said that there was nothing downstairs, as if no one else had ever come here.
In summary, the lame waiter should be fictionalized by the female singer.
When the female singer sat on the edge of the bed with the waiter and drank, she said to the waiter: "You look sad, young people should not be so sad." In fact, for the female singer, the waiter is the embodiment of her heart, and the waiter represents youth and contains her inner sadness. The female singer Ben decided to jump off the building to commit suicide, but in the end it was the waiter who put it into action, which is actually a game in her heart. The waiter jumps down, indicating that the female singer's youth is gone, and at the same time, her sadness disappears with it.
When the old waiter asked her if she wanted to close the window, she readily agreed and smiled, and her heart was finally relieved at this moment.
Of course, there is still a lot of controversy about this clip, many people believe that there is still a love contradiction between the waiter and the female singer, and the origin of Violet is not so simple.
As for the ambiguity, add a piece of information. The screenwriter died after writing the script, and the director shot the script directly, and the script was not changed in a big way, so there may be a lot of ambiguity. However, it is precisely because of these blurry points that this fragment is worth repeated scrutiny.
