*Thinking of Nebraska, it's all stories of stubborn old men who went on the road to do a crazy thing, the former was to win the lottery, the latter drove more than 300 kilometers with a lawn mower to see a brother who had a stroke* A girl who ran away from home, a woman who killed 13 deer in seven weeks, a cyclist, a WWII veteran, twin brothers who quarreled all the time, a priest... *This is probably the best movie I've seen this year, the soundtrack, actors, The story line and scenery are very good. At the end, when the two brothers met, lyle just asked if Alvin drove a lawnmower all the way to see him. Tears started to glisten in his eyes... I was moved to tears... two The acting of the old actor is fantastic. The length of the meeting between the two is only about three minutes, but it's really good enough* The movies of the 1990s are very characteristic of that era, and so are the movies of the 1990s in the United States, allowing you to see ordinary people in the United States in the 1990s Life, a peaceful town, a laid-back old man, and the occasional crazy things that happen *Seeing this, I finally understand why a road movie can be a subject of its own. There are not only the stories of the protagonists, but also the stories of the protagonists. The stories of other passers-by, so a film can fully reflect a lot of things *Alvin said that when he was a child, he often lay on the ground with lyle and looked at the stars, imagining whether there are human-like creatures on other planets in the universe... Now his biggest wish It was to watch the stars with Lyle again. After driving more than 300 kilometers with a lawnmower, he did it
*There is a special feeling to watch this movie, one is about American life in that era, and the other is about life in a hurry. The kind of life presented in the movie is really peaceful, even strangers help and respect each other. Nothing special is going to happen. Very quiet, very ordinary, but very comfortable. Alvin says one of the worst things about aging is that you remember when you were young. More and more I feel that time really flies by so fast. I am in my twenties now, but I still remember what happened more than ten years ago. I feel that everything is too fast and people are aging too fast. You will remember today in many years. , I feel like I want to go back to today many years ago, but now you don't cherish it too much
*Two of my favorite movies from 1999, David Fincher's Fight Club, and David Lynch's Mr. Streeter's Story
