remembered that I just watched the Hong Kong films "Forty for Men" and "Forty for Women" a while ago. Why is it so difficult for people to be middle-aged? The career is threatened by younger and more energetic people, and the bottleneck that cannot be broken through is reached. The old and young at home need to be taken care of. There is nothing new between me and my partner. The topic is only the trivial matters of the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar at home... Self The state of doubting self-denial is a little scary. Can't everyone avoid it?
Thinking that I haven't called home for a long time, they may think I'm heartless and don't hang up once I go out - what's the benefit of raising a child. My dad is probably in the same state as David in the film. Grandpa and grandma are sick all the year round, and the family doesn't seem to be very harmonious. Although the child does not need to be supervised in his studies, the generation gap with him is very deep, and he has to quarrel after a few polite words. , work can be said to be a lifetime of inaction... Thinking about it this way, it's really not easy, and I'd better quarrel with him less in the future. When he is in his twenties, he should look like an adult.
Going back to the movie, Nicolas Cage played such a middle-aged man easily, and it felt effortless at all. The gestures of self-deprecation, embarrassment, anticipation, and depression after the loss of expectations are so kind that people can't help but feel sympathy in their hearts.
The most impressive scene is that his estranged wife turned around and walked into the house. David wanted to say something to her and wanted to reconcile. Turning around in response, the snow mass was hitting her face, and she was even more angry. It makes me sympathize with doing things better and doing things worse. I feel like I'm getting bored like this sometimes. Huhu.
Maybe this is life, never running according to your original intention, so you can't predict what will come next.
In contrast, I like David's father, the old man who won the Pulitzer Prize when he was young. Perhaps because of the vicissitudes of life, his attitude towards life is peaceful, tolerant, open-minded, wise, and at the same time there is no lack of warmth and care. I was very moved by his love for his son in the details. For example, although his son only had time to say a word at the "living funeral", he still found Bob Dylan's song to listen to.
In the end, I fell in love with the sport of archery after watching this film, but Xia Xia, who knew me deeply, said: You should concentrate on practicing swimming. Hehe, I think it would be good if I live with Xia Xia in the future.
