Film evaluation of lunch box
"The Luchbox, an Indian film, is the debut of Ritesh Batra, a new Indian director. The special feature of this film is that it is not the standard of Bollywood film, and there is no long space, and there is no singing and dancing form. But lightly handed over the story of two strangers connected by a lunch box. In the corner of the city, we are all hopeless and have no feelings because of life, and loneliness is scattered around. A lunch box, a mistake, an unreachable feeling, and two strangers start a daily conversation, which is worthy of the name "using taste to drive emotions." In Europe and America, there are many movies with the theme of food, which tell the story of the protagonist through food, make use of food to become attached to each other, or use food as a medium to tell feminism, but most of them tend to talk about love with food, and love is so dark. For example, sweet relationship is about a couple's affinity and competition. I really love you enough to go into the kitchen. Similarly, love has many aspects. In the work Julie and Julia, the late director Nora Ephron, the hero's love is placed on the food host, taking food as an attempt of life. The plot in Delicious Love Letter is inseparable from love and loneliness. The plot seems quite common, that is, a misunderstanding connects two strangers and tells their loneliness in detail. I dare not arbitrarily agree that this is love. After all, two people have never met, how can we talk about the rest of our lives? Interestingly, although the script is ordinary, the film is full of strong curry fragrance, which is close to us and allows us to see the scenery of India. Crowded trains, estranged family members, and living alone, in fact, to put it bluntly, we all want to get off work and taste what we love to cook as soon as we get home from class. When I was a child, I was cared for by my parents, and I was naughty and partial to food. When I grow up, I want to find a partner to spend the rest of my life and feel the taste of happiness. Even if the other party cooks in a mess, they will accept it all. In your spare time, you will chat, talk about when and what you have eaten, as well as those anniversaries, and what's the new meaning. Sometimes they praise each other, and sometimes they dig at each other. Life is like this. We feel each other's existence with our five senses, see each other, smell each other, hear each other and touch each other. Feelings don't last forever, so love splits. Over time, people will no longer regard each other as important people. Over time, they won't even talk about one more word. Over time, they don't even want to have the smell that should be each other. This is a story about a man and a woman getting acquainted, and the lunch box is the matchmaker between them. As far as we are concerned, the way of transporting lunch boxes in the film is a little exaggerated. In order to let the beloved man have lunch, the courier collects lunch boxes at every house and then transports them to the office in the city by train. This way takes a lot of trouble. In our opinion, why is there no microwave oven in the office for employees to heat food? This may actually reflect the local situation, where women are in charge and men are outside. In order to make the beloved man fall in love with himself, it is necessary to capture his stomach, his morning, afternoon and evening. The simple story brings out a strong human touch. The man eats the lunch box clean every day and thinks of his long-lost wife. And women also feel the respect that she has not felt for a long time. This is how the story happened. Her lunch box contains her feelings and her devotion. She is just a woman and child. It is her responsibility to stay at home and take care of her daughter. She doesn't have any big dreams, but she just wants her partner to look at her. When a man's wife has died and his work is nearing retirement, he eats alone and goes home alone, and he just wants someone to care about him. The story of the city has caused a lot of noise. Eating a meal is just a small wish. They began to write all over the world, and their lives and feelings are pinned on words. Yes, they are all bored and stupid, thinking that the other side is ashore. Is this fate or a trick? As a new director's work, the story is written in an ordinary way, similar to the pattern of some European and American movies, which is very old-fashioned for the audience who love literary romantic movies. But the film reveals a little fresh and clean Plato's love, which makes us understand that invisibility is also a kind of love, simplicity is also a kind of love, and estrus is also a kind of love. Even if it is not love, it is a sign of friendship. In the movie, an open ending is handed over, and whether the two brothers have a lover or not is left to the audience to imagine. The most important thing in this film is to make people eat, and the flavors of yellow curry, red curry and Indian food jump straight from the screen to the seat, which really makes the audience feel color, fragrance and taste. What is better written in the film is the letter written by the hero and heroine to each other. The black humor makes people smile, or it is not a world-famous work. But in Asian movies, we can see that Indian movies can also be "not Bollywood" or take a relaxed and literary route. It is not worse than the food movies in Europe and America. In fact, there are many expressions in food movies. In 2006, an Indian director in Britain, Pratibha Parmar, made a lesbian movie Nina's Heavenly Delights (Lenore's Sweet Life) around curry, love and family. No matter what kind of movies are, they always tell us to find love in curry and stories in curry. As for "Delicious Love Letter", it is also a work that can be seen. There are both printed humor and confusion about love in the film, and there are still some values worthy of our attention. For example, people's attitude, inferiority and self-esteem all need courage and boldness to move forward, and learn to accept rather than be hypocritical. Several protagonists are also comfortable and realistic, and it is indeed an Indian work that is refined and popular. "
