Quick's best-selling novel of the same name. The film was nominated for eight nominations for the 2013 Oscars and won the "Best Actress Award". This is a light-hearted and interesting movie with a profound meaning. How can Pat, who has mental problems in the eyes of ordinary people, regain a happy life in this seemingly normal crazy world? The day before the movie, I saw on Weibo that a girl suffering from severe depression jumped off the building to commit suicide. The girl confessed her last words on Weibo. The words are calm and thoughtful. The girl also wants to enjoy ordinary fun and live life like ordinary people, but as soon as she becomes ill, she feels bored and becomes sluggish as soon as she takes medicine. Slow, unable to think, and often suffer from insomnia caused by taking medicine. The girl did not want her future life to be tragically under the control of drugs, nor did she want her illness to drag down her beloved family members, so she decided to end her hopeless future. I deeply remember the last sentence in the girl's suicide note: "Love you! 』At that time, I was thinking, why did a girl with a unique personality, deep thinking, and such a loving girl still end up on the road? Then, I found the answer in "Pat's Happiness Script". [If someone stands together, "loneliness" will no longer be helpless] Paite suffers from mental illness just like the Weibo girl. He is a patient with bipolar disorder and lived in a mental hospital for eight months before returning to live with his parents. Pat is clever and interesting, but he is different from ordinary people: he is extremely paranoid. And once you become paranoid, there is no one in your eyes. He would throw the book he was reading out of the window from the second floor in the middle of the night because he couldn’t agree with Hemingway’s point of view. Then, no matter it was four o’clock in the morning, he would run to his parents’ room angrily to discuss with the two elders. This matter. All the audience laughed at this scene, Xiao Paite is really crazy! However, when I carefully recalled Pete's endless words, I found that he was indeed different from ordinary people's words. Ordinary people often read classic novels with an attitude of worship, and they always feel that the masters who are regarded as standard are right in saying everything, but Pete reads novels with his own outlook on life. He doesn't like the unsuccessful ending of the hero and heroine who has gone through ups and downs. He thinks that life has been too ups and downs. Why can't he give his hardworking lovers a little hope? Think about it carefully, what Pete said is absolutely true! There is no standard answer to reading this matter. Everyone will have different feelings according to their own experience. If you only look at Pat’s unreasonable behavior, most people will definitely shake their heads and see him as an untimely bomb, how far and far away. Fortunately, Pat has a pair of parents who love him very much, even though they treat him occasionally. The act of getting out of control due to paranoia is a headache, but they are always with Pat, not only He didn't regard Pat as a patient, and even took great pains to help him resume his normal life. Because of his parents who regarded him more important than the whole world, Pat's life did not fall to the bottom due to a momentary loss of control. He did not despair at all, even if he was indeed different from ordinary people. Because of the kindness of ordinary people, he is convinced that there will be a ray of light behind the dark clouds. Such Pat is lucky! The reason why people despair of the world is often caused by their loneliness. "Different from ordinary people" is usually regarded as a serious flaw in a standardized society. In a world where the minority must obey the majority, but the majority may not respect the minority, a different person like Pat is destined to feel lonely. Loneliness is the real reason why people can't live. If someone treats the severely depressed girl on Weibo in the same way as Pat, who is lonely, she may be able to see the invisible but truthful line of happiness behind the dark clouds. With a sense of happiness, no matter how bad life is, you can see the future. In this world, only happiness can make people no longer alone. [Weirdos are not weird, the weird is that they can’t tolerate the normal world that is different from others] The most interesting thing about this story is that not only Pat is a weird, but the heroine Tiffany is the weird of the weird! She doesn't care about the eyes of others at all. She is more likely to lose control of her emotions than Pete. She is also forced to undergo medication because of her extraordinary experience. Two people who pity the same disease are especially prone to sympathy, so they quickly become friends. People's self-confidence is amazing, and it is often built on people who are worse than themselves. Everyone believes that Pat is a madman, and Pat also knows that he is indeed far from the average person, but when he meets Tiffany who is more mad than him, he feels that he is much more normal, and he has also unknowingly developed superiority. feel. What was particularly impressive was a scene where two people were dining in a restaurant. Tiffany talked about her unbearable past with Pat. Pat was very interested and kept asking. When Tiffany finished speaking, Pat didn't want others to know that he was with Tiffany. Tiffany suddenly became furious, and then shook her head and left. Pat was anxious to explain, but Tiffany said sharply: "I open my heart to you, but you are scornful to me!" 』I suddenly felt that the girl said many people's inner thoughts. This is why the bigger the person, the harder it is to take off the inner mask. When interacting with people, you must be careful and cautious in your words and deeds in order to reduce the chance of injury. Few people are as direct as Pat and Tiffany. Direct words sound hurt at first, but what really hurts people is bad things that everyone knows about you except you. Maintaining superficial harmony between people does not mean that they fully agree with each other, but because they are afraid that some words will not only be useless to oneself, but will Create a greater gap between each other. The estrangement is sometimes incomprehensible, and sometimes unwilling to understand. No matter what it is, there is actually only one common answer: Wuxin. Without the intention of understanding, it is naturally difficult to cross the barriers. If you can treat each other frankly, who wants to be hypocritical. From this point of view, the weirdness in the eyes of others is not strange at all. What is strange is that this so-called "normal world" cannot tolerate the difference. [The line of happiness behind the dark clouds has always been there] "The Silver Linings "Playbook" is translated into "Pat's Happiness Script" in Taiwan, and "The Line of Happiness Behind Dark Clouds" in Mainland China. Before watching the movie, I felt that the translation from mainland China made people's eyes bright; after watching the movie, I felt that the translation from Taiwan was the core of the movie, and it won my heart. Life is indeed like a play. Everyone's life is a unique script. No matter the ups and downs or the unremarkable, we can't complete our own script alone. The reason why Pat's script is happy and complete is that he has a lot of love; those loves give him the courage to believe in "love" again after experiencing the deep pain. Everyone looks normal on the surface, but deep down, we are sometimes "Pat", sometimes because we are too paranoid or focused and unable to control ourselves. Fortunately, there may be a "Tiffany" beside us. She is not perfect at all, and sometimes worse than you, but she will always stand firmly in front of you when you turn around and want to escape. Sometimes she keeps talking, sometimes she is silent, when you are not sure of anything, the only certainty is: she is the light that always follows you wherever you go. If there is no "Tiffany", or at least "Pat parents" who will never leave, they may never understand your paranoia, but they are willing to look at your uniqueness from an appreciative point of view. As long as they exist, there will be endless power to support the weak you, so that you will fall to the bottom without giving up on yourself. As Pat said to his brother in the movie: "All I can give you is love. I want to say that as long as there is love, it is enough. As long as there is love, there will be no obstacles in life. The love song that I had never dared to listen to again because of a broken love will one day become a light and windy picture, and even the moment of listening to that song can be as calm as before. All these changes come because of love and are born of love. It's like Pat's cliche: "People will be happy if they look away. "This sentence, which is often heard from others, can only have a profound meaning if you say it from your own heart." After watching the movie, what I think of is not how to create my own happiness script. What I look forward to is to become the "Tiffany" or "Pat's parents" in other people's scripts. Because only by playing an important role in other people's lives, we can become better ourselves; and only by willing to give others happiness, happiness can become the umbrella of the bad world. When everyone becomes better, they will be more kind to those around them. Then, there may be fewer girls like that on Weibo who committed suicide due to unsolvable loneliness. The line of happiness behind the dark clouds has always been there. As long as we are willing to be light, this world full of prejudice and darkness
