life is to fight

In fact, I didn't understand many parts of this film, such as the story at the beginning, and the meaning of the result, etc. I don't even know what the center of this film is trying to tell me. However, this does not affect my admiration for this film at all. Maybe everyone will find out the answer to their own life after watching it. This is the most valuable part of a film.

And in my opinion, this is totally an inspirational film. Funny to say, the story of such a useless man inspires and empowers me more than the story of success. Whenever this unpromising man deals with problems softly, it gives me the urge to go up and help him.

What a useless man this is! !

The wife and wife couldn't control it. She didn't tell him the affair behind his back, and she justly asked him for a divorce. In the end, she even asked him to move out, but the idiot agreed to all of them.

He couldn't control his son, he didn't know if he didn't study hard in class, and he knew what to do when he bought records behind his back. The funniest thing was that every time the TV broke down, he seemed to ask him for repairs as a matter of course, but he never seemed to think about it. This kid can fix it himself.

And his brother, it's natural to take care of a person like his brother who has a difficult life, but he should also be restrained.

In front of his family, he is so useless, and even more disgusting in front of outsiders.

The part where his rival brought wine over to chat with him made me laugh and cry. In the face of such a person who took away his wife, this dear man can be so polite. Even if you don't flatter this bastard out of politeness, it's okay to invite him out at your own house, and it's not a sin not to drink his wine. There were also several other performances in the face of a rival in love. I don't know what this big brother thinks of himself.

The same is true when dealing with neighbors and students' parents. What's more polite when there is a conflict. Others have stabbed you twice with a knife, and you still hold this smiley face and say that we are friends, right?

I don't know if there is such a person in reality, but I dare to say that this is definitely a top-notch useless person, and men all over the world can find confidence in him.

But then again, which man is not a bit of a coward, but this dude is a bit of a coward.

Maybe he wants to be a good guy, so it's normal to be bullied. The right has always been won by oneself, and no one will give it kindly. Everyone's desires are infinite. If a person does not cherish his rights, he will naturally be eaten by others. How can a person want to have his own rights without conflicting with others.

Some people may say that such a society is too cruel and unreasonable. Yes, society should ensure that each individual has the same interests, but if a person is bullied, how can he help him without appealing to others. For vulnerable groups, we naturally have the obligation to protect, but as a big man, do you want me to help you like the old and the weak?

Life should be fought, especially for men, who can't protect themselves, how about protecting the country and the family!

A Serious Man quotes

  • Rabbi Scott: No, of course not. I am the junior rabbi. And it's true, the point-of-view of somebody who's older and perhaps had similar problems might be more valid. And you should see the senior rabbi as well, by all means. Or even Minda if you can get in, he's quite busy. But maybe - can I share something with you? Because I too have had the feeling of losing track of Hashem, which is the problem here. I too have forgotten how to see Him in the world. And when that happens you think, well, if I can't see Him, He isn't there any more, He's gone. But that's not the case. You just need to remember how to see Him. Am I right?

    [He rises and goes to the window]

    Rabbi Scott: I mean, the parking lot here. Not much to see. It is a different angle on the same parking lot we saw from the Hebrew school window. But if you imagine yourself a visitor, somebody who isn't familiar with these... autos and such... somebody still with a capacity for wonder... Someone with a fresh... perspective. That's what it is, Larry.

    Larry Gopnik: Um...

    Rabbi Scott: Because with the right perspective you can see Hashem, you know, reaching into the world. He is in the world, not just in shul. It sounds to me like you're looking at the world, looking at your wife, through tired eyes. It sounds like she's become a sort of... thing... a problem... a thing...

    Larry Gopnik: Well, she's, she's seeing Sy Ableman.

    Rabbi Scott: Oh.

    Larry Gopnik: She's, they're planning, that's why they want the Gett.

    Rabbi Scott: Oh. I'm sorry.

    Larry Gopnik: It was his idea.

    Rabbi Scott: Well, they do need a Gett to remarry in the faith. But this is life. For you too. You can't cut yourself off from the mystical or you'll be-you'll remain-completely lost. You have to see these things as expressions of God's will. You don't have to like it, of course.

    Larry Gopnik: The boss isn't always right, but he's always the boss.

    Rabbi Scott: Ha-ha-ha! That's right, things aren't so bad. Look at the parking lot, Larry.

    [Rabbi Scott gazes out, marveling]

    Rabbi Scott: Just look at that parking lot.

  • Larry Gopnik: She seems to be asking an awful lot. But then, I don't know. Somebody has to pay for Sy's funeral.

    Rabbi Nachtner: Uh-huh.

    Larry Gopnik: His own estate is in probate, but why does it have to be me? Or is it wrong to complain? Judy says it is. But I'm so strapped for cash right now, carrying the mortgage, and paying for the Jolly Roger, and I wrecked the car, and Danny's Bar Mitzvah coming up, I...

    Rabbi Nachtner: Something like this... there's never a good time.

    Larry Gopnik: I don't know where it all leaves me, Sy's death. Obviously it's not gonna go back like it was.

    Rabbi Nachtner: Mm. Would you even want that, Larry?

    Larry Gopnik: No, I- well, yeah... sometimes... or... I don't know; I guess the honest answer is "I don't know". What was my life before? Not what I thought it was. What does it all mean? What is Hashem trying to tell me, making me pay for Sy Ableman's funeral?

    Rabbi Nachtner: Mm.

    Larry Gopnik: And did I tell you I had a car accident the same time Sy had his? The same instant, for all I know. I mean, is Hashem telling me that Sy Ableman is me? Or that we are all one, or something?

    Rabbi Nachtner: How does God speak to us? A good question.
