So after get off work, I really bought mango cheese and Kuqiao cake to accompany the slices, hugged the dog, and pressed the remote control... Then I found something was wrong. This is definitely not a film with a sweet smell in the air. On the contrary, pain, painkillers, death, hallucinations or ghosts run through the film. The heroine played by Aniston is old and haggard, and she has to endure the pain caused by the sequelae of a car accident: physical and psychological. This is a film that really shows her acting skills. In addition, I think this is the best role she has portrayed.
Or the title should be called "Pain". As for the cake, it is actually just a key to her path to healing. If you take away the actor’s deep performances, or you have not really faced the dark times in life alone, or your life is full of sunshine, there is no shit and dark times... then the plot of this film is simply vulgar. Nai: The female lawyer lost her beloved son after being in a car accident. In order to resolve the physical pain caused by the trauma, she spends her entire day with sedatives. Oh, there is also a nanny who will never give up. Then the suicide of Nina, a member of the mutual aid group, touched her (she began to be troubled by Nina's ghost, which should be a sedative hallucination), she began to approach Nina's husband, trying to explore Nina's death, and she also tried to lie on track. , But thankfully she survived and the last shot means she has been healed-forget these plot introductions, they seem to have nothing to do with the movie itself, the plot is at most a supporting skeleton, but those explorations about pain, It is the flesh and blood of this film. This film is different from the conventional Hollywood warmth and inspirational blockbuster in that it uses almost 99% of its strength to show you despair, and only ends with 1%, giving the heroine and you in front of the TV hope. But enough. Being able to face pain formally and solemnly, the director is great.
Pain cannot be hidden-the director clearly knows how, but many people don't understand. Yes, the pain is finally broken down slowly by time, sublimated into the void by the tide of life, but it can never be hidden artificially. And what is tomorrow and hope, sometimes it is the momentary tranquility that rises when the pain accumulates to 99.99%. But some people, with their blink of an eye, the peak reached 100%, such as Nina, so she jumped.
Therefore, everyone should find a way to suppress the crazily growth of pain, such as tranquilizers, alcohol, music, chat, diet, exercise, sex... Before reaching the peak concentration of 100%, let it reduce even a little bit. Because compared with death, no matter how crazy life behavior is, it can be forgiven.
Aniston and Nina’s ghost (I think it’s a sedative hallucination) lying on the rails, Nina said that the last wish before death is very important and the only thing that can be taken away after death. "McDonald's French fries" "Water baby sunscreen, because I love the taste" Then, she finally said "I used to be a good mother"-I burst into tears in an instant. In fact, the real pain she has been hiding and avoiding is the child. I think her final salvation of pain began from this moment.
