Addiction is a knife that cuts through life

First of all, the beauty of sweet tea is blessed.

There are tranquil tea, sad tea, crazy tea, and desperate tea.

After "Summer Night", Sweet Tea once again appeared as an addict. The performance is very good, the levels are very rich, and the emotions are well controlled. The male protagonist's performance and sweet tea are also perfectly matched, from distressed continuous giving to distressed desperate giving up.

But I actually have a question: What is the motivation for addiction? The film didn't explain it clearly. Of course, someone may point out that it is because of the family's broken and reorganized relationship, but the sweet tea in it has exhausted all kinds of drugs that can be inhaled. I think it is only after a huge twists and turns that such behavior will occur, right? What's more, from the flashbacks in the film's father-son interaction scene, it can be seen that the father cared for tea meticulously. I think it might be because of the protection of the privacy of real people without focusing on the motivation of addiction, or the focus of the movie is on "going out", so the reason is rushed.

This is a film with social and educational significance for quitting gambling. By coincidence, the neighbor Maple Leaf Country just announced the legal trade of marijuana, which can be said to be ironic. Tea is addicted to drugs, wants to be hallucinogenic, but actually wants to escape. He may have always felt that he is a pretty boy in his father's heart, but he feels depressed in his current life, or space, and he can with drugs. I completely paralyzed myself, as if crossing into another world, that world may have the original complete family without quarrel at first. Poison can be compared to a blade that sweet tea cuts through the existing life, and in the end it hurts itself all over the body, no one can save it. Cha felt that he was ugly and disgusting in his heart. He lied, took drugs and wasted his life. But in the eyes of his parents, he is the pretty boy, so the father and stepmother have been trying their best to help him, never giving up, but they gradually discovered that they are useless in this matter and can get him back. The person can only be tea herself. There was a scene I remember very clearly, Tiancha took his girlfriend in a hurry and drove away from the house. The stepmother immediately chased him, and stopped halfway through the chase, crying loudly. I can feel a sense of powerlessness after doing my best. There is also tea’s mother who called his dad to say that she can’t give up tea anyway, but needs his help. In this phone call, it’s no longer blaming each other, but more like confession. The reason why confession tea is addictive is Their relationship broke down, and that beautiful boy would never come back.

The egg in the film is a monologue of tea, and he analyzes himself in a calm tone.

Finally, he returned.

Once again became a person who can perceive small happiness in a crowded crowd.

So pretty.

Beautiful Boy quotes

  • David Sheff: There are moments that I look at him, this kid that I raised, who I thought I knew inside and out, and I wonder who he is. He's been doing all sorts of drugs, but he's addicted to crystal meth, which seems, uh, to be the worst of all of them. And I guess I'm here because I just want to know all that I can about all of it. Know your enemies, right? So, my two big questions are, what is it doing to him, and what can I do to help him?

  • Nic Sheff: One day, I tried methamphetamine... Yeah. That felt good... and I thought, "This is what's been missing." I felt complete. Today's a good day. Yeah, I've been chasing that high ever since. No matter... how much meth... or whatever else I can find to shoot up into my body... I do, it's never enough. And I went to a couple of rehabs, I detoxed, they would talk about disease, sure, but... it never clicked. Until one day I woke up in a hospital and someone asked me, "What's your problem?" And I said, "I'm an alcoholic and an addict." And he said..."No, that's how you've been treating your problem."I know now I need to find a way to fill this big black hole in me. Anyway, so I'm fourteen months clean. I have a job at a rehab. It's fulfilling to help other people get sober. I have a sponsor, Spencer. He shows me how great my life can be sober. And, um, I still have family. My mom's been amazing. My dad's been amazing, too. I want them to be proud of me.
