Background Of Creation This is a female aesthetic film set in contemporary France, the United Kingdom and the United States, encouraging women to pursue freedom and advocating feminism.
The film is about upper-class people living in high-class apartments in Paris, who have a glamorous appearance and prominent social status, but live a hypocritical and absurd life.
The real spiritual world is very rich, but the ugly concierge Mrs. Michelle and the 11-year-old genius little girl Baroma, who hide in the corner of the self-world and secretly enjoy their elegant spiritual life, but they resist the outside world with thorns.
It was Mr. Ozu Geran, who had just moved in. With his delicacy and erudition, he discovered the unique lifestyle and attitude of life that the two deliberately concealed.
Since then, the film begins to have two main lines: the suicide plan of Paloma, an 11-year-old girl, and the development of Mr. Ozu's relationship with Hona.
Paloma, an 11-year-old gifted little girl (living in the rich district of Paris, her father is a politician and her mother is a petty bourgeois housewife)
11-year-old genius little girl Paloma Dad is a politician, and mom is a petty bourgeois housewife
An unexpectedly precocious 11-year-old girl whose plan is to commit suicide in a non-painful way on her 12th birthday. Because her philosophy is: "Be the one who chases the stars, don't be the goldfish in the goldfish tank."
She was a genius, knowledgeable, loved photography and graffiti, exported chapters, and loved to think about philosophical propositions.
[Family education is really important, why will Paloma and Renee go with her to get clothes, chat, play chess with Mr. Ozu, compared to Paloma's father and mother, daughter goes to school and greets her mother and does not listen, her father will only reprimand her, and her sister is also a communication for the purpose of trading]
1) Paloma loves to tell the truth, often leaving adults speechless, so much so that her neurotic mother even wants to send her to a psychologist to check if there is anything wrong with her braincase. And my mother didn't think much of herself talking nervously to the tree all the time, and taking a lot of antidepressant pills. And Baloma also dislikes the adult world. She said she didn't want to live in a glass fish tank, so she decided to commit suicide on her twelfth birthday. Until one day, she met the concierge, Mrs. Michelle.
2, Dad is a politician, busy at work. Politicians have spent their lives chasing power, playing with power, and doing whatever it takes to achieve their ends.
The father and daughter talk about their mother's mental and physical condition, the father appears listless, and Paloma concludes with calm and logical dialectics: "Only psychoanalysis and religion take pleasure in suffering." Unconsciously, the father took the bottle and poured wine into Paloma's glass and asked her if she would drink a little, Paloma responded with calmness and gaze, and the father unblocked himself in the name of "joking". I laughed when I saw this.
3, the sister is a heart to become a more promising girl than her father, in her view life is a battle, only by destroying others can win the victory;
Concierge Mrs. Michelle (or Renee)
In the eyes of the noble ladies and gentlemen of the mansion, she was a non-existent person, and no one would even recognize her face except to be labeled as a female concierge.
But in her own world, she built herself a study, drinking black tea and eating dark chocolate while reading Junichiro Tanizaki's book Praise for the Dark. Sneak in the world of great books and let your soul fly freely. Of course, all this is deeply hidden by her in places where people can't see.
What's wrong with a woman who reads a book, and she's going to be ridiculed
Mr. Ozu Gelang (newly moved owner of the wealthy district of Paris)
It is hard for the average person to imagine that the name of an unspeakable cat raised by an ugly concierge was taken from the great writer Leo Leo Tolstoy, and Mr. Ozu saw everything, he gave Renee a hardcover copy of "Anna Karenina" to Renee, and invited Renee to dinner at home.
Shortly after dinner, we meet in a Japanese movie together, "Sokata Sisters" is helpless, and love is hidden;
Once born twice, Mr. Ozu's enthusiasm melted the humility of Renee, Mr. Ozu was worthy of being a cello-like man, and he sent a love invitation to Herna in his own way: "We can be friends, even more." ”
We can be friends and even more
The lovely goldfish that swallowed sleeping pills "died" in Paloma's hands, but miraculously "reborn" in Hona.' The film ends with Herna's unexpected death and Paloma finding hope for survival.
I believe there must be someone in the world who can feel himself, who is not necessarily a lover, who may be anyone, just like the year-old friends in the movie: Madame Michelle and Paloma.
