Taste life with wine
//////////
Weekend time is always short and precious. Get rid of the tiredness and suffocation of the working day, and people's vitality and vigor always reach their peak on weekends.
In the world of Daqian, there are also ways for Daqian to spend the weekend.
▷ Or accompanied by food, let the ups and downs dance on the tongue and taste buds
▷ Or have a picnic in Bay Park when the summer sun is shining
▷ Or share recent news with three or two close friends
For me, contentment, leisure and pleasure can be found in the cinematic world that is ingested in a small glass of the lens.
In two or three short periods of time, I experience the various states of life, appreciate other people's dreams in the flickering light and shadow, and find the shadow of my own dreams in them, and find my inner voice in the stories of others.
For those who have never traveled far but have the feeling that "the world is so big, I want to see it"
For great ideals, movies are the way to understand the world.
It is also a different kind of going out.
Watching movies is never limited to the subject matter, nor does it set a movie viewing list based on the public rating standard, it is always a sudden interest or idea.
Maybe look up, look at the stars and the moon, explore the mysteries of the universe in "gravity" ; maybe feel down, turn off all the lights alone, be surrounded by kindness and warmth in "Heidi and Grandpa" , and be healed by the scenery of the Alps; It may also be a drink tonight, looking for the ambiguity and spark between wine and movies, and comprehending the meaning of life in "Life with a Glass of Wine".

"Life with a Glass of Wine" is a classic wine film , in which wine is mainly used as an important prop that assumes a metaphorical function, and is one of the important clues supporting its film.
The film tells the story of Miles , a middle-aged man who has no hope of remarrying, but has an unfulfilled dream of publishing a novel. Jack , an out-of-date actor who can only get a few commercials to make a living, has a reckless nature and decides to have one last indulgence before his marriage .
So, the two brought a few bottles of good wine and drove to the California grape-producing region to start their wine tasting journey, which is also a dignified journey to find the identity of others.
Along the journey, there are always stories. Miles gets closer to Maya, a waiter, and Jack has a hot relationship with another Asian girl;
Unexpectedly, Miles learned from Jack that there was no hope of remarriage and the cruel fact that the novel could not be published, and Miles did not intend to tell about Jack's impending marriage, which made Jack's affair come to an end. Time is too short to be broken in a blink of an eye. They are forced to think about the meaning of life, to think about the future.
Jack came to his senses in the romantic affair. He couldn't stand the cruel reality, and he couldn't let go of a stable life. Compared with the panic of losing everything, the bondage of marriage is no longer a problem;
Cowardly by nature, Miles, after this trip, has accepted the fact that he is just an ordinary person, but he still moves on. When he learned that his ex-wife was pregnant, he mustered the greatest courage to cherish the bottle, only when it was important. Open the wine at all times, abandon the crystal clear goblet , and drink it with a disposable paper cup with a hamburger.
It is also from this moment that the beautiful and illusory wine glass is broken and the illusory dream is extinguished. He is determined to face the reality, look directly into his heart , and begin to truly taste the taste of fine wine, forget the past, reconcile with himself, and knock with the most authentic self. Open Maya's door.

The story is flat and straightforward, without the ups and downs and dramatic turns of ordinary road films. The rhythm is slow, and the viewers are a little impetuous, and they may not be able to fully enter the story.
It itself is like a very old glass of wine , which requires waiting and patience. This process is as plain as water, but it gradually develops a different flavor and has an endless aftertaste . In the film, Maya's words are simple and simple, but very shocking.
In fact, your life is just like this. In the process of careful brewing, it gradually reaches a climax and surging, and finally gradually becomes stable and stable, and then ages.
Most of us, chasing, lingering in the peak of glory and vanity, and even spend a lot of time creating an illusory world to make yourself a hero , and then tie ourselves to the past or the future.
In the movie, the cowardly and incompetent Miles finally chooses to be honest with himself, admitting that he is just a fingerprint on the window of a skyscraper, a piece of toilet paper when going to the toilet, and a piece of garbage thrown into the ocean.
After a long struggle with shame and unwillingness, a real and strong sense of self-identity took root in his heart. It turned out that this was just a story of confrontation. We always have high light moments and low moments, both of which require your head-on look , instead of choosing to retreat and escape in one-dimensional time.
Time is like a trickle, the moment you turn on the 61 white horse, the moment you fall from the hillside and you are disheartened, and those moments when you are depressed are all life memories melted into your blood, time, character, place, and so-called sense of ritual. It's not as good as the feeling of being fully committed to that moment, as it is the truest version of yourself that you are with.
It is worth mentioning that the film was not only nominated for the best director Oscar that year, but also had an unexpected impact on the wine market. The protagonist's love for Pinot Noir caused a Pinot Noir craze in California.
It's a hard grape to grow, you know?
Its skin is thin, very sensitive, and ripens early.
It is not as easy to grow as the black grapes of cabernet
Pinot noir needs constant care and attention
It only grows in those hidden and special corners of the world
And only the greatest patience and nurture of the gardener can make it grow.

Much of the film was shot in Santa Barbara, California . The unique long and narrow landform, advantageous geographical location and cool climate make Santa Barbara County one of the important producing areas in California for the production of world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
There are also some shots about wine planting and brewing in the film. The mottled vineyards and the natural scenery of California make the whole film feel a little warm in the rich sad tone.

Today is drunk, today is drunk
The "notorious" hammer of life in Wang Xiaobo's text will always come as scheduled, hammering down the inflated ambition and momentum of our youth, and then we are like deflated balloons swaying in the breeze in the sky.
But please remember to remind yourself that you are still in the sky, you can still feel the wind, the rain, and the warm sun, and you will see many scenery and meet many people on the road.
Poetry and distance can be right in front of you, you can watch the sunset through the window when the stolen leisure is broken; it can be the sound of life in all things when the summer is full of vitality; it can also be when the night is dark and the roadside flies by fireflies.
