Young is good
Darron 2022-02-21 08:01:42
Profound means more pain and less likable. In our age, profundity is a disgusting thing. What is really likable is to pretend to be profound, that is, things and speeches that "look very profound" ——This opening sentence can probably summarize the movie. The seemingly witty talk, coupled with the irony that the West has always used, and a touch of vanilla-flavored warmth, all the essence is here. Young people are always accustomed to raising eyebrows in life, while old people are insensitive and accustomed to sneer. What else can we do? In any case, even if we succeed, we still cannot change that we are all vulgar.

The style is a bit Woody Allen

This kind of record of nihilistic society in the last century is quite interesting. Young people who have nothing to do are a little stupid and a little warm. A bunch of harmless fake people. Community fell, and love was born.

Charlie Black: It's a bit disappointing. I thought we were better friends than that.
Fred Neff: I wonder whether we're really friends for them at all. We're just way stations between dates. I mean, for them, men are either dates, potential dates or date substitutes.

Fred Neff: I think I'll be going now. I have nothing to say, and I'm completely boring without a drink.
Tom Townsend: It's only midnight. You can't go.
Fred Neff: I'm sorry, but without the cocktails, staying up all night loses its charm. Besides, I haven't had anything amusing to say since I stopped drinking.
Tom Townsend: Did you have anything amusing to say before you stopped?
Fred Neff: I know, but it seemed amusing. Now it doesn't.
