Funny Life, everyone is the same.

"It's like on the verge of blowing up, all the stress and pressure and anxiety just bubbling up, but I'm never able to let it out like that." This quote from Craig after Bobby was out of control was especially touching. Almost everyone will encounter this critical point, but the choices they make are different. Nia will go to see a psychiatrist; Craig chooses to send himself to a mental hospital before committing suicide, which is considered self-help; Noelle has attempted suicide many times; Bobby abandoned his daughter and divorced his wife, and is decadent; Muqtada is afraid of the world being bedridden. . . Everyone inside and outside the mental hospital has their own story, their own pain, trouble and depression, and their reasons for not wanting to live, crazy, stupid, and boring. But at the end of the film, everyone still finds the meaning of life, although the transition is more abrupt and joyful, or the power of family love and friendship.

After all, it's still alive, isn't it? A day of happiness is a day, and a day of depression is also a day. Oh, it's actually that simple. The state of life is often in one thought. Choice is important. When you meet verge again, take a deep breath, look at the ceiling, and walk down with a smile even if you cry and complain of absurdity. Suicide and madness are useless, they have to be cured. Stop being hypocritical, everyone is the same.

    It's a bit ridiculous to say, that year we were still very naive, noble and glamorous thinking that we could save others, but in fact we were selfishly waiting for others' redemption, the boring world of the past can't be fooled by the second illness, and finally we have to face it ourselves, just breathe & live.

It's Kind of a Funny Story quotes

  • Craig: Okay, I know you're thinking, "What is this? Kid spends a few days in the hospital and all his problems are cured?" But I'm not. I know I'm not. I can tell this is just the beginning. I still need to face my homework, my school, my friends. My dad. But the difference between today and last Saturday is that for the first time in a while, I can look forward to the things I want to do in my life. Bike, eat, drink, talk. Ride the subway, read, read maps. Make maps, make art. Finish the Gates application. Tell my dad not to stress about it. Hug my mom. Kiss my little sister. Kiss my dad. Make out with Noelle. Make out with her more. Take her on a picnic. See a movie with her. See a movie with Aaron. Heck, see a movie with Nia. Have a party. Tell people my story. Volunteer at 3 North. Help people like Bobby. Like Muqtada. Like me. Draw more. Draw a person. Draw a naked person. Draw Noelle naked. Run, travel, swim, skip. Yeah, I know it's lame, but, whatever. Skip anyway. Breathe... Live.

  • Bobby: Well, well, well! Still working on it, Cool Craig?

    Craig: It's not what you think.

    Bobby: I think the two of you were playing the question game outside, that's what I think.

    Craig: ...Well, I... guess it is what you think then.

    Bobby: I thought so.
