The intelligent, understated, alienating and disturbing film, set in the waning years of the highly-romanticized 50""s decade, is narrated in a flat, heartless, unsensational monotone voice by he film""s emotionally-immature, passive, childlike and naive 15 year-old character named Holly...Father said he wanted you nearby.Got a room all fixed for you, upstairs."With the promise of being closer to her and realizing hat he was moving up in the world, Marvin began o fall in love with the vivacious, carefree and tempting rich girl Madge who was also becoming infatuated with him.I""m afraid she""ll be a problem for you too.With a smaller community, she may be better.Give her responsibility, Sister.She badly wants importance....Spare her some of your own importance, if you can....I don""t think you""re ready for it, and I think you""ll be lonely.Never forget, we""re an order of workers.Work them hard.And remember, the superior of all is the servant of all.She had stressed the main belief of the order - that hard work and toiling was the way to salvation, since it kept the mind from frivolous, earthly distractions.The pace gets faster and faster until it freezes on a final tableau.Waltz of the Flowers:the change of seasons from fall to winter is beautifully illustrated in four dances.Lori also set fire o propane tanks near the dock - causing a massive explosion that engulfed the two combatants in flames, and blew their burning bodies into the water.
