This film reminds me: I am lucky to be able to live without food, clothing, and shelter.
And for many people, the hardships of life are real: electricity bill reminders, dilapidated houses, single mothers skipping meals for days in a row to save food for their children...
[Edited again] Sorry, this is my first time writing a film review and I have no experience and forgot to warn: there are spoilers, spoilers,...

Faced with seemingly rambling questions from the health consultant, Daniel answered all questions honestly with doubts, and his condition was mechanically ignored. The shady scene at the beginning of the film omits all the pictures of the consultant but stares at Daniel, which is the director's attitude throughout.
Daniel, who suffers from heart disease, was defined as suitable for work by the government outsourcing company. He lost his eligibility to apply for welfare allowances and...

I really can't watch more of these depressing movies
I was not active at all, and I lost my confidence after reading it.
Occasionally I see my hideous face reflected on the screen
I hate everyone, everyone. Get out of my eyes.
Remember a few details:
When a single mother was receiving relief food, she was so hungry that she secretly opened a can and couldn't wait to eat it with her hands, her mouth full of brown liquid.
When she went to the...

The struggle between petty citizens and the steel system
The system will never lose, the people under the system will always lose. There is nothing wrong with a rigorous system in itself, what is wrong is overkill to shut out some really needy people. The protagonist Daniel and a single mother are examples of them. They are both grassroots struggling to survive. They pay taxes on time, and have been doing their civic duties silently, but just when they needed help the most, the system ruthlessly abandoned them. .
The film was shot...

The rhythm is relatively slow, but it is very life-like, that is, it feels very close to you. The selected actors are not the kind of beautiful flowers, but also reflect the life of foreign low-level people. I believe it's true, people's fantasies about life in foreign countries are all too good, but no one's going to tell you what their poor are like, there's a heartbreaking scene in which the mother cooked spaghetti for her The two children, who gave up her share to Blake, swallowed her...

The film that won the Palme d'Or at Cannes last year over "Tony Erdman" is really good! It is simpler and sharper than the latter. Excellent human works of art must look directly at reality and life in this way, and express humanity, ideals and feelings in an artistic way. Our film industry, which is completely controlled by the entertainment box office, should be...

To understand the reasons for Jia Zhangke's popularity in the West, it is extremely difficult to get a glimpse of a real national image just through movies. Movies can only open up a gap in reality, show the limited reality in front of us, and see a story that is completely different from the grand, profound and dramatic through their living conditions and living conditions. Of course, it is not only the shortcomings of the British welfare system and the plight of the lower working class, but...
Daniel: We should all be drinking a lot more bloody coffee.
Ann: Please listen to me, Dan. It's a huge decision to come off JSA without any other income coming in. Look, it... It could be weeks before your appeal comes through. You see, there's no time limit for a mandatory reconsideration. I've got a time limit. And you might not win. Please, just keep signing on. Get somebody to help you with the online job searches. Otherwise, you could lose everything. Please don't do this. I've seen it before. Good people, honest people, on the street.
Daniel: Thank you, Ann. But when you lose your self-respect, you're done for.
Daniel: Was I a soldier? Oh, more dangerous than that. I was a carpenter.
