people lost in luxury

?The 21st movie "City of Absolute Beauty" The protagonist Jab is an old man who is approaching his twilight years. He once wrote a very famous novel when he was young, and he never wrote it again after that. He was trapped in the city all his life, when he was obsessed with fame and fortune every night, his soul was empty. The introspection of today's prosperity fades away, but self-deception, reminiscing about the past life, emotion is eternal. A lively summer, a beautiful city that cannot be described in words, a story that seems absurd but has deep meaning, scenes of life and death, intertwined with nothingness and reality. Colorful, life is full of expressions! People taste despair in loneliness, and feel lost in amnesia. This beautiful Rome is like an old man going into his old age! The lines in the movie that impressed me most were: "We are all on the verge of despair, all we can do is look after each other, be with each other, and joke around"

The Great Beauty quotes

  • Jep Gambardella: To this question, as kids, my friends always gave the same answer: "Pussy". Whereas I answered "The smell of old people's houses". The question was "What do you really like the most in life?" I was destined for sensibility. I was destined to become a writer. I was destined to become Jep Gambardella.

  • Jep Gambardella: Madame Ardant!

    Fanny Ardant: [after a long pause] Bonne nuit.
