Chapter 324: You Pathetic Losers
"Grandpa can't wake up. At the motel, Oliver's confused call to his parents was heartbreaking.
"No matter what happens, we're family. Most importantly, we care for each other. I love you very, very, very much......" Cheryl's choked comfort while waiting for the results of the rescue in the hospital was also sad.
"Damn, Dad, damn it, stupid, stupid, stupid, this stupid ......!" In the hospital room, the grandfather who had been confirmed to be dead on the hospital bed was covered with a white cloth, and Richard couldn't suppress the grief in his heart, but he didn't want to show his emotions in front of his family, panting and cursing at the wall.
Grandpa is really dead. The audience didn't want to accept it, because it wasn't rendered much on the screen, not that they were sad and crying, but they didn't want to accept it, such a good grandfather.
A child of Duoduo's age, who still can't understand what it means to die, just went to heaven, another place.
Looking at the death of grandpa on the screen is to show it through Oliver's eyes, not particularly sad, and you can see the good in the bad things.
Laughter erupted in the screening room!
Because 3 p.m. is the deadline for registration for the competition, but the hospital and funeral home have to wait until that time after the procedures are processed, what should I do?
That's when something completely unexpected happened!
"If dad had one last wish, it would be to see Oliver perform on stage at the 'Little Miss Sunshine' competition. Now, I'm sure he'll be disappointed if we give up. There are two kinds of people in the world, winners and losers, and you know what the difference is? Successful people don't give up. What do we do? Are we winners and losers?"
Richard did not bow his head this time, and under his suggestion, the family wanted to leave the hospital and secretly take away his grandfather's body and leave.
Watching the Hoover family thieves smuggling away the huge human figure wrapped in white cloth through the window of the hospital room, there was audience laughter in 3,116 theaters, it was Grandpa's corpse! Laughing at something so sad was very weird, but this is black humor.
The laughter continued until the Hoovers loaded the body onto the back of the bus, and they jerked the bus away.
During the drive, Oliver and Frank talked about heaven, she thought there was heaven, Frank asked "Do you think I'm going to heaven?" and she nodded without hesitation and smiled "Yes!"
This is the film showing the attitude towards homosexuality, which in the eyes of God, in the eyes of children, homosexuality is not a disease, nor is it a sin, but a natural selection.
This is also the tone of Grandpa's death, from Oliver "can't wake up", from Oliver to "go to heaven", will miss him, but will not be grief-stricken.
Grandpa was a mentor, and Grandpa was also a failure.
The way he died was both a failed and an ideal one. The former belongs to other people's opinions, the cause of death is drug overdose, and the body is still being manipulated like that, and the latter belongs to his own opinion, and he lives to die at the age of 80, long live the hippie spirit.
The same death depends on how to look at it.
Critics were amazed by the handling of Grandpa's death, which may be the biggest black humor of the film, and the whole movie has a different level.
Ordinary audiences still can't let go, and it seems that in order to dilute the sadness, another ridiculous thing happened on the screen.
Because the horn of the bus was broken, it could not be turned off and kept beeping, and everyone on the bus was unbearable and very rude. To make matters worse, this leads to an interception by a ranger who, noticing Richard's nervousness about the rear of the car, searches it under the tense heartstrings of everyone on and off screen.
"Oh my God!!" exclaimed the patrolman as he opened the back of the car.
Just when everyone thought he had found Grandpa's body, he let out a weird laugh and pulled out a stack of erotic magazines, "I like it, hehe, oh this is my favorite ......" until he flipped to a crooked man's erotic magazine, his smile froze, and he looked at Richard oddly.
"Haha!" The audience's laughter was unscrupulous for a long time, and the feelings that had been low for a long time were rising.
The patrol took all but the Crook Man magazine, and the Hoover family was released.
But the scene is just a breather, and the story immediately falls into an even greater depression......
The sixth loser, Dewyan.
The bus was moving on, and the time was tight, and there was less than an hour to reach 3pm.
In the back row, Oliver was playing with the vision test sheet he had taken from the hospital, and Dewyn was involved, and his eyesight was fine, full marks, which made him smile happily, but in the subsequent color blindness test, Dewyn couldn't distinguish between red and green......
"Oh my God. Knowing what this meant, Frank fell silent, his face turning ugly.
Dewynne took out the notebook in surprise and wrote a "What?" Frank continued to say nothing, and Dewynne became anxious, his face turned red, and he pointed to the book frantically: "What, what, what!? Frank finally whispered: "Dewyan, I think you are color blind." ”
Oliver was confused, but the audience froze, and the screening room was crying out, colorblind, "Wouldn't Dewyn be a pilot, what if his dream ......
On the screen, Dewyn was stunned, then trembled, as if about to explode, covered his mouth, and his face was full of intense pain, as if he was about to vomit and get out of the car.
"Richard, pull over! we're in an emergency!" Frank shouted to the front row. Richard was still verbose and asked what was wrong, and Cheryl, who looked back, also noticed that it was not good, "Richard!" and he braked to a halt.
As soon as the camera was clear, under the clear blue sky, the yellow and white bus stopped on the side of the road, the door was pushed open, and Dewyan rushed out with his head in his hands, rushing from the far to the close-up, from the highway to the grassy roadside hillside, his steps were messy and almost wrestling, and he shouted hoarsely:
“FUCK————————————————————!!!”
This FUCK resounded through the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, resounded in 3,116 North American theaters, and resounded in all the places where LMS was screened.
Resounded in the ears of the audience, resounded in the hearts of the audience.
FUCK。
"What's going on?" Cheryl asked in amazement on the side of the panoramic road. Frank said bitterly: "He's colorblind, and he can't fly an airplane because of color blindness." Cheryl's face changed suddenly: "Oh God, no, oh no......" Richard's face was heavy, and Oliver was a little overwhelmed.
"Woo ......" cut back to the distant view down the hillside, and in the near view, Dewyn fell to his knees, hugged his face and wept, burying his head in the dirt and grass, sobbing.
Dewyan, who believes in the philosophy of superman, seizes every moment of hard work, is extremely himself, and is determined to become a pilot, but he was born without the opportunity to realize his dream, and his efforts were in vain.
Is it terrible to suffer setbacks in chasing dreams? Losing dreams is the most terrible, and no matter what you do, it is impossible to realize your dreams is the most terrible.
There is no opportunity, no hope, no future, nothing.
He's not superman, he's not going to be superman, he's just colorblind, colorblind who was born weaker and more failed than ordinary ordinary people.
He is a born loser, born sick, and I don't know if he can go to heaven after he dies, but in this world, he can't even distinguish between red and green.
Frank, a natural loser who is determined by secular ideas, is considered sick.
Dewyan, on the other hand, is a natural loser determined by the law of strength and weakness, and he is really sick.
The worldly concept, the law of strength and weakness, is precisely the master of this world.
The audience is very heartbroken and uneasy, this is actually a very cruel story, but it is not depressing if it is packaged in comedy.
Anyone who has tried to chase the badger box and the badger box is pulled by the male
You don't need to be a natural failure, you just need to try to have a goal and an imagination for your life, but gradually or suddenly, you find that it is impossible to do, don't even think about it, that kind of future does not belong to you, never.
Listening to Dwyan's crying, the screening room became more and more silent, the audience frowned, their faces were calm, and some people's eyes suddenly moistened, didn't they say that this was a comedy......?
So far, only Oliver is not the loser, and the others have brought audiences of all ages and groups except children into their own failures. No one has never failed, and it's not just the characters on the screen who have failed, but also the millions of viewers.
On the screen, everyone didn't know what to do, but the bus was still beeping and horning, as if mocking the qiē.
"Dewyan, dear, I'm sorry......" Cheryl walked down the hill. Dwynne sat there blankly, ignoring it. Cheryl sighed, "Come on, we have to go." Dwynne began to speak in a hoarse voice, "I'm not leaving. I said, I'm not leaving! I don't care, I'm never going to get on that bus again. ”
"Dewyan, no matter what, we're family. Cheryl tried to reassure.
Suddenly, Dwyanne erupted! He stood up sharply and screamed at Cheryl, "You're not my family!well, I don't want to be your family!" and then turned to the crowd on the side of the road above: "I hate you bastards!!
He pointed at the crowd one by one, waving his hands uncontrollably excitedly, "Divorce!?bankrupt!?suicide!?you losers!!! you pathetic losers."
Everyone was stunned by the sudden outburst, and Dwynne wiped his face with both hands, and sat back on the ground, his red face expressionless, and his eyes still weeping.
"Dewyan......" Cheryl covered her face and was about to cry. Dewynne said hoarsely, "No, just leave me alone, Mom, okay? When I beg you, let me be here." Cheryl shook her head uncomfortably and turned to walk back to the side of the road.
The audience was also stunned by this outburst, and something was churning in their hearts.
Dewyan's scolding is scolding himself, his family, and the audience, and he ruthlessly debunks a fact that exposes every bit of the bloody wound, so that everyone can't escape from facing themselves, and everyone is a loser, a large group of losers.
Yes, Jesus was wrong, this is a world of bastards with horses!
If there is heaven, then there is hell on earth. Hello every newborn and welcome to hell.
The audience was in mixed moods, and the Hoover family was helpless, Richard asked Oliver if he wanted to go over and persuade him, and although Cheryl was dissatisfied, Oliver walked straight and carefully descended the hill to Dewyan's side. The little girl didn't say anything, just sat down and put her arm around her brother's shoulder, silently showing her support.
After a while, Dewyan's expression changed a little, "Okay, let's go." The brother and sister stood up and walked back.
Back on the bus and looking at the crowd, Dwynn whispered, "I apologize for what I just said." I was just upset, and I didn't mean to say that. ”
"It's okay, let's go. Cheryl put her arm around him. Both Frank and Richard looked calm, as if nothing had happened. They started pushing the cart again.
They are a family, no one will be angry because of those words, and there is no need to say anything, they are just worried about him, worried that they will not be able to make up for the registration time.
Act II ends.
If she can be crowned "Little Sunshine Beauty", it seems to be a consolation to her grandfather's spirit in the sky, an encouragement to the family, and a compensation to the audience, drawing a good end to this story.
I don't know if the follow-up audience has different thoughts, but most of the audience naturally have this kind of expectation, because the world is not perfect, people are so yearning for beauty.
But the Hoovers are in trouble for something else!
They were almost out of time, and there were only 5 minutes left until 3 p.m., but they were still on their way to the host hotel.
In the light and nervous soundtrack, the atmosphere of the screening hall is softening and rising, and the audience is also nervous, seeing the hotel!
There was no way to turn around, and after a circle, Richard, who was driving, suddenly shouted, "Hold on, Oliver, fasten your seatbelts!"
The bus drove directly over a safety island, frantically smashed the crossbar of an entrance station, and made a thrilling ride into the confines of the hotel, and under the impact of another heavy safety island, the engine of the car suddenly stalled, and Frank saw through the rear window that a tire flew out.
"We lost a tire, Richard!"
"Look for it later, get out of the car!"
The bus slid to a halt in the parking lot, the horn roared, the door fell off the side of the car, and Frank jumped out and ran to the hotel without looking back.
"Hahaha!" The screening room in this section was bursting with laughter, and the audience was excited, almost whistling, hurry, hurry, hurry!
And smiling critics can also notice that it is very obvious that the reason why Richard is so crazy is for his grandfather, for Oliver, but also for himself, it may be more. He wants to win, if Oliver wins the championship, he is not a loser, he has a winning daughter, and it becomes meaningful, he wants to win!
The adventurous scene continues on the screen, and Frank runs all the way to the registration hall on the second floor of the hotel, which is dazzlingly gorgeous, full of beautifully dressed little girls and their mothers, and there are several staff members at the registration desk.
Meryl Streep is here!
Film critics were all in high spirits, and it was incredible to see Streep appear in the same movie and scene with Hanks and Roberts!
"Oh my!", "She looks fantastic!", the audience was even more excited, just one look at it and they knew that Streep was doing well!
On the big screen, Streep was already full of aura as soon as he appeared, a middle-aged and elderly woman dressed in fashion and luxury, standing behind the registration desk and cleaning up the table, next to a kind fat assistant. The audience's smiles quickly condensed...... Streep is super mean this time.
"Hello, let's register!" Frank breathlessed.
"I'm sorry, it's over. Lady Jenkins said, her tone completely unserious, haughty and cold.
Cheryl and Oliver arrived, and heard Frank pleading, "But here we are! Lady Jenkins glanced at Oliver, who seemed to be looking at her little belly, and said, "Registration is over at 3 o'clock." ”
"It's three o'clock!" Cheryl said hurriedly.
"Nope. Ms. Jenkins pointed to the clock on the wall behind her and continued to pack her things, "It's 3:04." ”
"Oh, please be accommodating, we're only four minutes late, we're coming from Albuquerque......" Cheryl begged.
Lady Jenkins remained unmoved: "But you should be there by 3 o'clock." She walked out of the registration desk to leave, when Richard, who arrived, stopped her: "Wait, wait! How can I solve it?" he pleaded and pleaded, and Lady Jenkins became more and more impatient, "Our lineup has been decided, and I still have to get my hair done." ”
Ignoring the family's obstructions, she strode over and said, "I'm sorry you're late, but I can't help you." But there was not a hint of regret.
In the frontal close-up shot, Richard looked aggrieved and helpless, obviously not wanting to continue to be angry. The audience could see the torment in his heart. Richard looked at his wife and daughter over there, and in the close-up of the single, Oliver, who was being hugged by Cheryl, frowned, disappointed, frustrated, and unhappy, and some didn't know what was going on......
Richard's expression changed, and his face was resolute.
He hurried after him, once again blocking Lady Jenkins' path, and suddenly fell to his knees with a pop, and knelt in front of her, kneeling in the astonished gazes of everyone around him, and begged, "Please, you don't know what we have been through to get here......
Lady Jenkins was stunned, and even more disgusted, for she had lost face by doing so.
Oh!! the audience was all stunned, and it was an unexpected scene, so poignant.
Looking at this ordinary but shocking brilliance, the film critics were quiet, at this moment, at this moment, Richard knelt down for Oliver, and he knelt down for his baby daughter's desire to compete.
A man who doesn't even let his daughter say much about politely apologizing, opens his mouth and closes his mouth about the rules of success, and who claims to be a winner to become an upper-class person.
When confronted with Stan, the big man who decides his future, he just says "please" at most.
But in the face of this person, the big man who decides whether his daughter can compete, he seems to have no dignity and kneels down.
Because, he is a father.
On the screen, Ms. Jenkins still wants to leave, ignoring him. Richard grabbed her hand, "Please......"
Off the screen, many parents and many viewers stared at their moist eyes.
The mood is complicated, but there is one word to express it:
FUCK。 and continue to pack things, "It's 3:04." ”
"Oh, please be accommodating, we're only four minutes late, we're coming from Albuquerque......" Cheryl begged.
Lady Jenkins remained unmoved: "But you should be there by 3 o'clock." She walked out of the registration desk to leave, when Richard, who arrived, stopped her: "Wait, wait!
