In my opinion, this drama is about a middle-aged crisis. In recent years, I have discovered a lot of films about the midlife crisis. From that American beauty to Lost in Tokyo, and then to this film, these men in their forties, who are already brilliant in the workplace, have their own difficulties. through. Robert De Niro, the protagonist of the show, plays a major producer. With the fierce competition, his career is getting worse. He has to work hard to keep his career, status, money and family, struggling to live in all kinds of complicated affairs. When a person is more than 20 years old, he is energetic and energetic. The most important thing is to know how to be humble, know how to learn, and is not afraid of being ridiculed, rejected and scorned, because he may not have a wealth of money, may not have a prominent reputation, and be a small employee in a certain place. , Unknown, wipes the table and sweeps the floor every day to make coffee for the boss, but there is time and ideals. When I was in my 20s, I often thought, stick to it, and wait until I'm 30 and 40 years old to be able to be in the position of XX. At that time, I have everything. By the age of 30, with a relatively stable position, you have to start to figure out how to get to the next level. It seems that your life is beginning to be on the right track. When you are in your 40s and 50s, half your life’s hard work has finally earned a certain status and annual salary. At this time, the child is getting older, and you don’t need to worry too much about it, and you also find that you feel as though you are being taken by a child. Being thrown away by the society, there are more new things and new concepts. No matter you are used to seeing it or not, whether it is ethical or not, it will all strike you. You don’t have the right to speak, you only have to accept and look at the society around you. If you don’t move forward, it’s going backwards. However, from energy to physical strength, you are not as good as a 20 or 30-year-old guy who can fight hard, but you can’t be reconciled. The reputation and status built by half a life's hard work was ruined. In the face of such a crisis, some people gave up, pretending to be younger again, some people were perished and eliminated, and the most people were lost and at a loss. This is the midlife crisis. When there is nothing, you have hope, when you have everything, all you have is fear, fear of loss. Sometimes I would rather not get it than fall into deep fear. Robert De Nino struggled in this fear, trying to satisfy everyone's requirements to do his job well, but everything is not easy. When it comes to the work of a producer, it is simply horrible.
I thought Hollywood producers all live in big houses, and the beauties around change every day, drink and drink to the stars, and are rude to the director. Lao Tzu gives you money for you to make a movie. Why are you talking nonsense? What are you doing? It's not easy to see this man. Somehow they can also participate in Cannes and be the cover of Vanity Fair. Directors, actors, investors, film companies, each one needs you to fix it. It's okay when they are in the same interest group as you, when everyone belongs to different interest groups, or when everyone has their own abacus, the producer really died miserably. Investors and film companies are all staring at the box office. I don’t care what bad movies you make. I think there is no such unit as the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. Service, the effect of the shadow version must be earth-shattering. As a director, if someone pays to make a movie anyway, you have to make something that I think is an art. Every director has his own style, and everyone doesn’t want to ruin his own style casually, let alone if you don’t want to. He broke his strength and often smashed his own brand. The story from red sorghum to golden armor fully proves the truth that a director should go his own way. If he walks the way of others, he will be killed by rotten eggs and tomatoes accidentally. The director named jemmy in this movie feels like Quentin’s style and violent aesthetics. The bloody scene of the dog being killed even reminds me of the blood-splattered scene of killing Billy. The director is also quite good. It's not easy, but also consider whether your style is acceptable to the audience. Now that I think of it, I have watched some particularly boring independent films before, and it was really unkind to scold the director after watching it. It's not easy to be an actor, let you be thin without getting fat, and if you shave, you can't see the stubble. Some people are completely beaten in such a severe environment and commit suicide in order to return to heaven. Others are struggling to maintain what they already have in such an environment and linger.
We all say that this society is cruel, and the reality is cruel. When you are in high spirits, you stand in the middle of Vanity Fair. One day, by carelessness, you find that you have been ranked next to P. Is P a metaphorical past? Maybe someday in the future you will never appear on Vanity Fair again. Isn't this cruel society created by ourselves? Our eyes are always on the gorgeous people in the center of the stage. One day they are not in the center or even in the audience, they will be abandoned by us forever, as if those gorgeous and dazzling people have never been there. We are heartbreaking for the tragic death of a dog, but can we watch Sean Penn get shot again and again? This real society is a cruel society given by all of us. What are we complaining about here? Sorry for the dog, because he is innocent, and will not be sad for humans, because they asked for it. Since when did we learn to abuse ourselves in disguise?
Alas, no matter what, it's not easy for anyone these days. If God gave me another chance, I would be more tolerant of a movie, a book, a piece of clothing, and a meal. Because I am also a lingering, busy self-perpetrator for what I already have or what I don't have yet.
