Peter Sellers' farewell work, the old man used his own strength to support the whole film. This is a Sellers who has turned off the chatter mode, and Chance's honesty and Muna provide a lot of misplaced baggage for the film. And it's hard to imagine that the script of such an American bourgeois satirical comedy was actually written by Kosinski. This is completely two extremes from "painting...

7.5/10. The title of being there directly points to a mechanism at the heart of the film: to put a person who deviates from the current society suddenly in an inopportune environment. The film is about linguistics and semiotics: the words "here" referenced to a gardener's work or a TV show are metaphorically interpreted to have different, grander meanings, and these languages ultimately produce the gardener a Very absurd identity. This kind of dislocation is also the source of the comedy...

There are always different interpretations at different levels. What the maid sees is a mentally handicapped person who cannot read and write. No matter how over-interpreted the celebrity politicians are, they will see his simple and sincere quality. Appreciate Ben's open-mindedness in fulfilling his love in the face of death, breaking the tycoon's paradigm of maintaining love with money, "I can imagine what kind of rumors the two of you will have", paving the way for her to be unfettered,...

The gardener who has been watching TV in a small house all his life suddenly sees the big world. His thinking is still fixed at the stage of being very innocent and childish, but the intriguing high society people treat him as a master, and everyone is talking nonsense. Really ironic. However, the male protagonist's state also made me see myself being "poisoned" by TV hahaha. In the words of Brother Su, our family Feiliu is mentally...

Unproven Unknown Error
Successful learning books have always been good sellers. People buy these books for the purpose of grafting other people's experience to themselves. This kind of thinking is understandable, but I suspect that a person without reflection, after reading other people's stories, can discover the...

Just Being There
Being is something without disguise. So many times we reflect on how to respond to others' tough questions. Sometimes we can't tell others the truth, for many reasons, which, makes us feel very puzzle to determine when should I tell others the truth and when not.
With the growing of our ages and...

President "Bobby": Mr. Gardner, do you agree with Ben, or do you think that we can stimulate growth through temporary incentives?
[Long pause]
Chance the Gardener: As long as the roots are not severed, all is well. And all will be well in the garden.
President "Bobby": In the garden.
Chance the Gardener: Yes. In the garden, growth has it seasons. First comes spring and summer, but then we have fall and winter. And then we get spring and summer again.
President "Bobby": Spring and summer.
Chance the Gardener: Yes.
President "Bobby": Then fall and winter.
Chance the Gardener: Yes.
Benjamin Rand: I think what our insightful young friend is saying is that we welcome the inevitable seasons of nature, but we're upset by the seasons of our economy.
Chance the Gardener: Yes! There will be growth in the spring!
Benjamin Rand: Hmm!
Chance the Gardener: Hmm!
President "Bobby": Hm. Well, Mr. Gardner, I must admit that is one of the most refreshing and optimistic statements I've heard in a very, very long time.
[Benjamin Rand applauds]
President "Bobby": I admire your good, solid sense. That's precisely what we lack on Capitol Hill.

Ron Steigler: Mr. Gardner, uh, my editors and I have been wondering if you would consider writing a book for us, something about your um, political philosophy, what do you say?
Chance the Gardener: I can't write.
Ron Steigler: Heh, heh, of course not, who can nowadays? Listen, I have trouble writing a postcard to my children. Look uhh, we can give you a six figure advance, I'll provide you with the very best ghost-writer, proof-readers...
Chance the Gardener: I can't read.
Ron Steigler: Of course you can't! No one has the time! We, we glance at things, we watch television...
Chance the Gardener: I like to watch TV.
Ron Steigler: Oh, oh, oh sure you do. No one reads!
