Depressing Movies

There are many problems that we cannot solve. We go out with problems in the morning and bring them back in the evening. Constant escape becomes detachment.

We are stuck in our spiritual world, and the male protagonist says "We have to learn to read...to improve our self-awareness, our belief system". And the fact is that the stronger the self-awareness, the thicker the separation from the world, and the harder the world will be.

The female teacher said it very well, it is easy to become indifferent, it takes courage to face it bravely. But spending a lifetime and plucking up the courage to live hard is also "drives us to work hard and encourages us to die in silence". It's a vicious circle.

The whole movie is depressing, talking all the time about what we can't do and what we can't do.

Death is certainly not the final detachment, otherwise we would be told to live in the quagmire of hardship every day. However, confiding to others, those life mentors who seem to be wise but actually more melancholy end up with emotional breakdowns; buried in the bottom of their hearts, they finally became depressed and committed suicide by eating a poisonous black cake. The male protagonist has asked others to "write down the pain" many times, using this method as an outlet for emotions, and there are so many stories in life that it is difficult to write.

Detachment quotes

  • Henry Barthes: How are you to imagine anything if the images are always provided for you?

    Henry Barthes: Doublethink. To deliberately believe in lies, while knowing they're false.

    Henry Barthes: Examples of this in everyday life: "Oh, I need to be pretty to be happy. I need surgery to be pretty. I need to be thin, famous, fashionable." Our young men today are being told that women are whores, bitches, things to be screwed, beaten, shit on, and shamed. This is a marketing holocaust. Twenty-four hours a day for the rest of our lives, the powers that be are hard at work dumbing us to death.

    Henry Barthes: So to defend ourselves, and fight against assimilating this dullness into our thought processes, we must learn to read. To stimulate our own imagination, to cultivate our own consciousness, our own belief systems. We all need skills to defend, to preserve our own minds.

  • Henry Barthes: [agitated at assisted living nurse] Let me be very clear here, you stop neglecting his needs, or I will start fucking with yours! I will have you fired! Then it's going to be your family! Your children are gonna be at risk! You got it?
