The right solution to a midlife crisis

Four old men think about using alcohol to solve\escape the problem of mid-life crisis, to stimulate their passion in life and regain their vitality through alcohol. It's a pity that the role of alcohol in the story is ambiguous. This thing was first of all these people's best friends, helping them rekindle their passion, but it also caused the death of the one with the least problem. It seems that the creators themselves have such complicated emotions about wine, which also led to the collapse of the later stage of the plot. But Uncle Ba's acting skills are great, even if he's an old drunk, he's quite charming.

95/100. #TIFF在线第一场#Life is the simplest but most complicated thing in this world. The simplicity is that you only need to change it a little bit, and it will become what you want. The complexity is that your poorly controlled changes may destroy you in an instant that hardly becomes a reality. All fantasy. When Winterberg was shooting this movie, his daughter unfortunately died in a car accident, so I felt the strong negative energy in the movie's comedy atmosphere. A glass of wine once let the heroes completely shake off their boring life, but it plunged them into a more terrifying abyss. We will also have the moment of swaying and releasing our enthusiasm, but that is just a tiny angle turned by the short-lived pointer. In 360 degrees of 359 degrees, we can only swallow all the hardships of life, pick up our aging face in the lonely boat sailing on the cold water, and continue to stare at this gray but unwillingness with eyes full of tears. The world that doesn't go on.
