The director must of thought he was paying some cool hidden homage to something, but it was just annoying and dumb. Lots of roosters in the city you know....
shareDid you notice that when the little girl entered it didn't make a sound?
shareI would have ripped that rooster off the door on the very first day. I'm not sure why you would even need a bell in a shop like this, much less an annoying rooster.
shareI hated the Rooster sound and I bet the patrons did too. The rooster does make people notice when someone enters.
Some businesses have the clerk greet you when you come in so people will notice you. Some criminals stall until other customers leave so they can rob and maybe kill you.
The thing I noticed was how they sat and drank endless cups of coffee with only a single unisex toilet and you had to get the key each time because it was kept locked.
Maybe I need to go back to Netflix and watch it again , but I thought the crowing was merely the Writer's cell phone.
shareAre you familiar at all with play writing or screenwriting? The rooster calls were basically calling attention to "french scenes" where actors enter or exit a scene. I'm not sure why "french scenes" were brought into American screenwriting but in this case - they may have been brought in so that people would sit up and take notice that something was happening.
shareWhat silliness! It's a movie, of course something is happening! lol

It's still silly, if only because it serves to distract the thought line of the person watching who might otherwise understand what was going on sequentially if not for the rooster. Inversely, if it had been a heavier element it could have made things murky as not everyone kept paying attention to it. I think I stopped paying attention to it also.
share/In the real world, a rooster crows to signal the start of a new day.
In this movie, each time someone enters or leaves the café, a new potential storyline is created. So the rooster is symbolic of that./
I got that. but it still was freaking annoying.
