You can never guess the romantic complex of the French. Even watching a movie, you can be "ruthlessly" romantic. There are no long lines, sloppy plots, and some are just spiritual enjoyment. Perhaps it is the charm of French cinema.
When I first watched " Heart Houser ", a sense of loneliness came over me. The story of three parallel lines was very smooth and dull. The second brush down, it has a different flavor, can't help but sigh:
people are always flesh and blood animals.
I am used to watching Hollywood blockbusters that are vigorous and stimulating the senses. I suddenly change my taste, or I may feel a little uncomfortable, but this kind of discomfort is a feeling that many people are missing under the influence of the epidemic, that is - warm humane care .
There are many small characters in "The Housekeeper", and each character may be the protagonist. The audience does not need to argue about what is right and what is wrong, we just need to enjoy this delicious film, and we don't need to take away tenderness for the sake of the world. Useless hypocrisy and indifference.
In an old-fashioned apartment, the uncle Berkowitz ( Gustave de Cowen ) who lives on the second floor refuses to pay for the maintenance of the elevator. The residents of the whole building know this uncle well. He was stingy and said he was very speechless, but from another point of view, the uncle could no longer use the elevator.
If there is no accident, it is an accident. Because of the long-term riding on the indoor bicycle, the legs are paralyzed and cannot walk temporarily. The uncle in the wheelchair is now facing the problem of how to go upstairs.
Unsurprisingly, he cheekily used the elevator, but only sneakily and with difficulty.
Even in the dead of night, the clever uncle secretly recorded the time each resident took the elevator from the gap in the door, so that he could use the elevator unknowingly.
One night, the hungry uncle was going to go shopping. When he put a coin in front of the vending machine to get the potato chips, the potato chips were stuck and could not fall down. The poor uncle let out a heart-piercing cry. . After
, the uncle met the female nurse (Valeria Bunoni-Tateqi Valeria) who was taking a smoking break. The uncle who was attracted by the female nurse still couldn't get rid of his bad habits and lied about himself. is a photographer who travels the world and wanted to take a photo of her. The second story of
is about a young man Charlie (Jules Benchette) and a new neighbor Jeanne (Isabelle Huppert) who were very cold when they first met, after the boy helped unlock the lock. After that incident, the relationship between the two became much warmer.
When watching Jenny's masterpiece, Charlie didn't show much interest, instead he was sleepy, and Jenny rolled his eyes and complained to the teenager.
Jenny tells Charlie that she used to be a household name actress, but now she's gone. The teenager then cared about the lost big sister and expressed his willingness to help Jenny win an important role in the next new movie.
In the third story, astronaut John (Michael Pitt) was about to return to Earth, but unexpectedly miscalculated the landing location and landed on the top floor of the apartment, terrifying the two buddies who were present at the time. John knocked on the door of a resident at random, and the door was opened by an old grandmother, Hamida, who lived alone. The grandmother
seemed to be used to seeing the world, so she was not panicked at all, but warmly welcomed the visitor from afar.
Although the language does not understand, but she seems to understand, the grandmother understands John's various needs, and treats John like her own son.
What is incredible is that his own son doesn't like to get along with his mother at all, and seems to cause a lot of trouble outside.
After just three days of getting along, John adapted to this unfamiliar environment, but only limited to the grandmotherAt home, I occasionally help grandma fix the water pipe, discuss the plot of soap TV series with grandma, and eat snacks made by grandma...
Finally, the helicopter that picks up John is here. John obviously felt the warmth of home that he couldn't feel when he was in outer space, and reluctantly said goodbye to his grandmother.
is still the same as when John suddenly appeared on the top floor. The two unknown buddies witnessed the whole process of pick-up again. I think the two buddies are like experiencing the wonderful experience of this world from the perspective of the audience.
