This movie roughly depicts three kinds of people in our lives: people who know how to pretend or transform themselves to achieve their goals, people who are pure and unreserved, and stupid people who are useless with medicine. The one we encounter more often is the first type, because the second type is too easy to be used by the first type (for example, the mayor who wants to legalize gambling), and the third type can't be achieved no matter how much you toss. . Because most people have a certain degree of intelligence and self-protection mechanisms, it is difficult for us to face others, or even ourselves, with our true face. The truth is often difficult for people or one to accept. What impressed me the most was that the little FBI agent discovered that Huyou is not a real British, but an American who pretended to be a Londoner in front of him. The little agent thought that no matter how unsuccessful, there is still a "beautiful woman" with him. In the toilet cubicle of the nightclub, the two men vowed to have sex before they started having sex. They found that "beautiful woman" had been deceiving people, and it was deceived to the bottom of his heart, because he wanted to trust her It is a more noble British beauty, not a native American beauty. In fact, as the protagonist Big Fudge Irving said, everyone wants to believe what they believe. The little agent never listened carefully to the ice fishing story of his boss. His life is a portrayal of his ability to understand: he only believed in his own inferences, and never thought about figuring out the actual situation. I know a black American who immigrated from East Africa as a child. When I first met him, he told me that I was from Oxford in London and spoke a strong British English. I am dubious, after all, there are very few exchange students from Great Britain in my ghost place. Later, I learned that Yuan Zi had spoken in this London accent a few years ago, making everyone believe that he was a black man from England, not a black American. He pays attention to dressing and dressing, and his style is European style, not hip-hop or sports style. He said that the Americans are too good to deceive. As long as they speak British accent and behave politely, people will give him the green light everywhere. He said that too many American girls were crazy about his accent and took the initiative to force him. When the professor heard his accent, he would talk about his trip to London for no reason. Even British friends thought they were his own. From an easily misunderstood black American to a high-yielding black intellectual in London, he has found a world of difference in his luck and wealth. Rosalyn (Jennifer Lawrence) and the wife of the hapless mayor first met to talk about nail polish, it was a god. The wives of two "important people" talked about nail polish next to their husbands, making various jokes about their husbands, and the last two women who met for the first time felt like sisters. If Rosalyn does not have the need to be recognized, and if the mayor’s wife does not have the need to assist her husband, could these two women with such different identities and backgrounds see each other like this? The so-called Hustle is to survive by fooling, chasing, and unscrupulous. The success of my black friends and Irving is not how clever their deception is, but they know how to grasp the weakness of people, and what they show is what others want to see and hear. Sometimes even if you want to confess, others don't want to believe it. It's like after Sydney confessed, Agent Richie was dumbfounded and finally deceived himself and said, fuck it first. When the female fudge Sydney was exposed, she defended herself very loudly. Who would not pretend to be ourselves in order to survive or to make a name? If you (the little agent) have to curl your straight hair, you don’t admit that you have a tiger mother and fiancee in your family. You pretend to be serious, and say indignantly that your mission and mission are all pretends, aren’t they all? Want to fool others into thinking that you are not good for bullying, is it just to get promoted and get rich and get out of the current dilemma? The protagonist in the film does not have a father like Li Gang, and the process from scum to big boss requires countless ways of flicking. Although we in our lives are not serious enough to deceive people for money and describe Mexicans as Arabs, we have all learned different methods since we were young. This kind of self-modification is a modification that caters to the desires of everyone around me. I follow myself and follow the wishes of others. No wonder it is the same as Roslyn's expired nail polish-it is very bright and scented, but there is a little bit of fragrance in it. Rotten smell, but can't bear to throw it away anyway. That is ourselves. It doesn't matter if you wear heavy makeup or put on a pose, you use it every day because it works, even if it's unbearable, it's a part of yourself. After careful management, the so-called "chengfushen" and "pass accidents", this kind of mask may always be effective. Because the back of cheating is greed. If you are not vain and want a London girlfriend, if you are not greedy for money and want those hundreds of times of huge profits, if your governor is not delusional to be famous forever, if you are not ambition to control the construction and operation of Atlantic City casinos , If you are not coveting to become a world-famous FBI detective...you will not be framed so easily. So if You feel that you have been deceived by life, so you might as well ask yourself what you covet for life. Also, about change or self-reform. Changing yourself is by no means a black and white thing, it may be motivated, or it may be a disguise. Reading books to enrich oneself is a change, and beginning to learn to look at beauty is a change. Except for crimes, good or bad lies not in the means of change but in the motivation for change. For example, if you want to exchange the envy of others, or use it to please others to achieve your own goals, I am afraid it is not a noble motive. If you are afraid of failure or avoid change because of laziness, this cannot be called self-preservation or innocence. The article Rosalyn read is right, the power of intention (the power of intention) Intention) is very powerful, and finding the right motivation will make a good change. The last time Irving played his tricks was because he couldn't bear to look at this innocent, the only good buddy Mayor who would give him a microwave oven in his life, planted in the hands of a rookie agent who was eager for quick success. A just and well-intentioned intention makes everything easy. Many times we subtly hypnotize those motives that are dependent on the existence of others to ourselves, telling ourselves that these are the goals of work or courtship. Our hearts are gradually unable to discern what makes us happy, and when the goal is reached, there are still endless desires to fill. If you feel this way, perhaps your motivation is not simply "better material conditions" or "a man who loves me" or "a stable job." Let me tell you a simple test standard. Looking back after a few years, there is no feeling of "I haven't lived for myself in this life", so it's not bad. The true kindness will not do bad things, and the kindness for doing bad things is mostly fake kindness or kindness that is unknown. When you want to support education, figure out whether you like to show the image of selfless dedication or want to "save the poor child". If you want to change the world, figure out whether you want to be looked up to or whether you want 99% of people to listen to you. Command. Our motivation may be mixed with different proportions of selfless justice and eagerness for quick success and quick gains, and early discovery is beneficial to ourselves and others. "Live on the ground", "Ordinary" is not to encourage you to give up your ideals and become cynical. Recognizing your own face and motives, if you have it, you can change it, and if you don't, you won't have any loss to anyone. I accidentally wrote a bit solemnly. But the reason I gave this film 5 stars is that this movie made me laugh from beginning to end, and it is very rare to explain the truth of life in a humorous way. In the end, the people in the city must be careful of the stupid people, such as Rosalyn. Her stupidity is naked, and her clumsy cover-ups (for example, finding scientific truths or wise sayings in magazines like Reader's Digest to "enrich" herself) are only perfect for herself. But often this kind of people's unreasonable cards will make you fall short and cannot bear to look straight. It is best not to neglect this kind of people, but it is also best not to use them, or else steal the chicken and lose the rice. 01/21/14 Update: I thought about why the dialogue in this film is so careful and long. I think the screenwriter or director wants us to pay attention to the conversations with others in our daily lives. We sincerely praise how many conversations we have, and sincerely want to understand, the set without a strong purpose is close to or leave people we want to present. Of the impression. I can't recall many of the specific dialogues in the film, but those who are interested can rewatch and taste it. Update 2/8/14: There are many people who can't hear Amy Adams' British accent. In fact, I feel that although her pretending accent is not very strong, her accent is still relatively obvious, and this level is enough to show off mystery in daily life in the United States. Although there is a possibility of being spit out by others, I think it must be the students whose oral English basically reaches the native level (British or American) to be the most sensitive to differences in accents. It's like foreigners may not be able to tell whether you speak Mandarin with a Hunan accent or a Taiwanese accent, but for us, the difference is very big.
