Well, not to hang up, but such an event is capable of delivering a feeling of sincere joy. Not everyone, really. Not everyone. And if in A. S. Pushkin Tsar Saltan was overcome with anger from the news, then in the Icelandic saga of our days, the initial dumbfounded in the eyes of a married couple from what they saw ‘miracle’ develops into reverent ecstasy. Still, a lamb, only a small animal with a head and a right hoof, the rest is a man. Marvelous wonder. Sheep farm, finally gave out a priceless pearl. Heir. Heiress. Favorite child. And if so, things can be abandoned completely, the routine of everyday work, left in memory as a memory of past times. All eyes on Ade. Baby. And what is the name – Ada … Derived from that same Hell, or what? And there is.
Indeed, what happened caused reverent awe not only in the peasants’ ‘parents’. The picture earned the respect of the jury of the prestigious film festival and received the Palme d’Or at Cannes. And in these places, how much in vain prizes are not scattered. The originality of the plot made an impression. The judges paid tribute to the tape.
It’s not hard to decipher the movie. Moreover, the author worried in advance, having secured himself on this score. In fact, you never know, all of a sudden, not everyone and not immediately will reach the meaning of the idea. The puzzle needs help to solve. And the main character, in bed, for the coming dream, when the main events have already taken place and everything has become more or less clear – she opens the book. What? What brings the haze of peace to the forehead? It turns out – M. A. Bulgakov. Imperishable work – ‘Heart of a Dog’. This is where it turns out that Valdimar Johannsson ‘drifted’. This is the God he prays to. Once again, at a historical turn, we have the opportunity to join Professor Preobrazhensky, Dr. Bormental and, of course, see the portrait of the current Sharikov, that same Polygraph Poligrafovich … Nothing in common? No similarities? And you look, look right. There is joy, there are tears.
Associations are caused by this skillful work. And that’s probably what makes her strong. The very thing that is born in the head when it comes into contact with the frames of the whirlwind. What will be given to you to see, I do not know, but I, for example, ‘stuck’ on the current test-tube children. Are these people in general or what? Are they complete? Are they like us? Or is it still different? And if others, then who? Demihumans? Half beasts? What about surrogate mothers? How to be with them? Here and now, as it seemed to me, this topic sounds like a bell – a goat mother demands her child back, and intelligent, higher beings ‘drive her out of the yard’. Go away! Who needs you? You did your job! Out!
And if so, the ending is tragic. He won’t keep you waiting long. Retribution, do not pass.
