Movies where you can find your point

I watched the movie "The Gambler" today. At first, a friend told me about the movie and introduced me to see that the actor in the movie or what the movie talks about is a bit like me, so I watched the movie that night. After watching the movie, I really feel that sometimes my thoughts are similar to those of the actor. It seems that my friend knows me better.
In fact, many people certainly don’t understand why the actor wants to groan without illness. He has a good life, a happy family, a house of his own, and a stable job (it should be considered a relatively satisfactory job after all, university associate professor), so why should he get himself At this stage, I cannot pursue the essence of life, do not understand the meaning of life, do not understand why people live like this, and I am extremely dissatisfied with the students in my class, thinking that they all come to this class for credits. I’m confused, so I have to go to the casino one at a time and I don’t know whether to release myself or deliberately fight against myself, because he is not gambling to win, but better. On the contrary, in the situation of losing, I turn from the male protagonist’s face. I can see a smile on my face. It seems that losing all the money on his body is the purpose of going to the casino, and then he keeps borrowing usury, and then gambling, which makes him fall into a blind spot step by step.
Indeed, the few people change the world, and the majority are changed by the few people, so what kind of ordinary life we ​​should have as the majority is what we should have
Sometimes I suddenly think of this male protagonist, and suddenly think of what I am pursuing in my daily life, repeating and repeating it every day, not finding what I like to do, and I am very happy with many ordinary people in life. I don’t care about things very much, and I really don’t understand the meaning of life. Maybe when I am not still struggling with this thing at my age (I am already 27 years old), I should work hard to make money, and then work hard to buy a house and a car. , Looking for a wife, getting married, and eating and chatting with friends when you are happy, you will feel that this kind of life is more satisfying. But I sometimes like to ask myself boring questions that I can’t find answers to. Friends and relatives around me won’t ask you these things. They are busy getting married and making money, so sometimes I seem to be particularly out of place and lonely, so Sometimes it’s necessary to introspect for yourself. I don’t know how long this kind of bewilderment and death will last. It seems that the whole world owes me money all day long. In fact, I don’t really like this kind of face, but I still hope that I can face it positively. Regarding life, after all, no one wants to be a person full of energy. The reason why I write these things is just to record my mood after watching the movie at the moment, so that many years later, I will remember that I had this kind of experience. State, just like the current self will always remember the boy who happily ran on the basketball court when he was in middle school! !
