Wondering how to translate that thought-provoking line at the end? "The unexamined life is not worth living. The examined life is no bargain." "No bargain" means that you can't bargain, and the reason why you can't bargain is because the item is no longer on sale, and that option has expired. Timing is truly everything in life. So it feels a little bit inaccurate when it is translated into a scrutinized life from other places, and there is no regret that time cannot be reversed and life cannot be reversed.
The philosophy of this line is very similar to the regret and absurdity of the Czech writer Milan Kundera's "The Unbearable Lightness of Life" in which there is only one life, a draft but not a draft. Obviously you have to experience it to know where to improve, but many times there is no chance, and if you miss it, you miss it!
ps Little K's head is too crooked, the sitting and standing postures are too bad, and I need to take a body class hmmm... It's really uncomfortable to watch, although she did a good job in Ang Lee's movie, but this movie is really too shallow. Woody Allen doesn't know what love is, right? The love he has here is replaceable. The character of Little K can easily give up the person he fell in love with from the beginning, and naturally he will easily give up and fall in love accidentally people. Do you know what true love is? True love is not love at first sight, I have a physical response to you and I think about you that is love. True love is difficult. It is the resonance of many details of the soul. It is not so easy to fall in love with someone after two meals. But the story is set in Hollywood in the last century, and it doesn't matter how absurd and distorted the plot of the characters is. Maybe I haven't watched movies for too long and have lost my sense of drama. Woody Allen, the little old man's understanding of feelings is too rough and bad reviews. (Looking back on it later, it is also possible that he used this exaggerated form to satirize the cheapness of feelings in the environment of that era.) I may have liked this so-called literary jazz movie when I was young, but now I really can't stand it, if not Interested in Eisenberg, really too lazy to watch.
