Hollywood, which is accustomed to filming grand narrative hero complexes, has also filmed a lot of waste. Those marginalized people who have nothing and nothing in the eyes of mainstream society, those little people whose lives are so unsatisfactory and even riddled with holes, those tiny beauty and suffering that are not noticed by the huge things curled up in the corner. Compared with the learning of motivation and success, the squatters I have seen have one thing in common: they seem to live more real and grounded, even if this truth is concealed in all possible ways before they come to awakening.
After waiting for a long time, I finally saw the "Silver Linings Playbook" (Silver Linings Playbook) written by a mental patient. I didn’t feel the splendor in the legend or imagination, the relationship between the hero and the heroine came a bit suddenly (although it felt like Pat went back to turn over the wedding video in the middle of the night after they met for the first time, and the family was upset because he fell in love with T at first sight. It is more of a cliché in romantic films. The story is weak, and you can rely on the excellent actors and Cyclonus's clever and humorous lines to jokingly interpret life, and of course make it the darling of various awards seasons.
Watching movies is the same as reading. Whether you like it or not depends largely on your life experience, emotional experience, and perception ability. This kind of black manic, machine-gun dialogue, and a romantic comedy that can be snarled and ripped apart by farts may make many people uncomfortable. Watch carefully. This is the story of a mental patient who met a female lunatic and used madness to cure madness and use poison to fight poison. I tried to clarify what it said, there may be some inaccuracies:
Pat, who had been in a psychiatric hospital for 8 months, brought a restriction order within 500 feet and was taken home by her mother who had taken the risk to assure the court. "Continuous Upward" is posted in his ward, and he seems to be too optimistic to always see the bright side of life. He learned a set of "silver lining" theory in the mental hospital, so he always said "every cloud has a silver lining" (probably meaning that there is sunshine behind every dark cloud). Pat used to be a high school history teacher. One day he ran into his wife cheating. Xiao San'er said to him, you should go. At that time, the DVD at home was still playing their wedding song. It was normal. He beat the little San'er fat to death. It was very serious and almost killed the kind. The court will naturally sentence him to pay for this. But he has always had bipolar disorder that he didn't know and was not diagnosed, and he easily lost control. Probably for this reason, some kind of agreement was reached with the court. At the beginning of the story, he stayed in a mental hospital.
Pat, whose wife’s working house is gone, is left with a father who has severe obsessive-compulsive disorder and does not know how to get along with his son with bipolar disorder, and a mother who loves his son and fears him losing control all day long. After returning home, his condition did not improve, and he would still be mad at any time when he heard the wedding song. Even if his wife sold the house, he still paranoidly believes that they are true love, and he is full of confidence in redeeming the marriage. He began to rebuild himself: running and fitness with a trash bag every day (according to him, trash bags are used for sweating, but it would be unscrupulous for you to let such a handsome guy wear it), a book that lists his wife for students After the single recitation, get back the previous job. He thought that as long as he straightened out his life, his wife would return to him.
Tiffany, a young widow without her husband and work. The typical problematic young woman, bohemian, smashing, and people always call her a slut. The fact is that she attributed her husband's accidental death to her neglect of him, and even some crazy actions that were not understandable: such as having sex with everyone in the office, regardless of gender. Unlike Pat’s escape, she admits and likes the bad parts of herself. She wanted to overthrow the mess of her life and start anew.
Pat’s friend introduced him to his wife’s sister Tiffany, and it’s no surprise that the first time a mentally ill and a lunatic girl met, it was just a smell of gunpowder. But it's rare for them to roar and talk about all kinds of mental antidepressants at the dinner table, and you will find that they are the people of the world.
Pat and Tiffany became acquainted with each other after a morning run meeting and a roaring clash in the restaurant. Pat asked her to help him send a letter to his wife, and he wanted his wife to see the changes he made for her in order to redeem it. T agreed on the condition that Pat must accompany her to dance and participate in the competition. Pat was quite reluctant to this request at first, and only agreed with T's both soft and hard. After a few small incidents, they healed each other, and then they got together in a cliché...
Pat, he lost his job and gambled and wanted to open a restaurant . He didn’t know how to get along with the sick son and pretended to be a strong dad, and he often trembled for fear of losing control of his father and son. Loudly said that I'm going to get some grumpy snacks for my mom, a friend who seems to be suffocated by work and family but must pretend to be a calm wife and strict friend. Look around, there are so real existences.
People who love life but have been hurt by unexpected changes in life probably understand Pat more? He was just trapped, and he hasn't slowed his mind: his life is fragmented, and he doesn't know where to find positive energy, so he always keeps the "silver edge" theory and his wife who has become unfamiliar. On the lips. He refused to take medicine and see a psychiatrist, thinking that he was not the kind that would explode. He escapes reality and hurt, just want to get rid of the self that he doesn't like, he doesn't like the broken things that are sad and crazy.
At the end of the film, Pat, who said "I’m kidding, Sunday? I love Sunday, and I’m alive I’ll point to Sunday." I’m crazy in my heart or in others’ hearts. But so what? Sunday has become my favorite day again. Thinking of everything that everyone has done for me, I feel like I’m really a lucky person.”
De Niro has always played well, and the post-90s Jennifer Lawrence also played well, but the nomination of the statuette seems a bit too much. After all, I don't like her appearance that has always been so pure and gentle. The biggest surprise is Cooper. Even though he is to accompany the Oscar to a large extent this time, the nomination is an affirmation of him. After all, I don't agree with him squeezing out the acting skills I also like. It's long been discovered that Cooper is not just being handsome, he is just a late bloomer. His performance even made Pat irritable and cute, the kind of nagging sensitive and fragile emotions, the kind of helplessness and helplessness were all caught by him. No way, Hollywood has so many talents whose acting skills are as dazzling as their appearances.
Pick out a few sections that I like more:
1. Pat started to read Hemingway as soon as he came back, and he went crazy as he read. Throwing the book out of the window at four o'clock in the morning, then ran downstairs and continued to rant and criticize Hemingway at the awakened parents. Mom thinks he needs to apologize for waking them up, and Pat thinks that the responsibility lies with Hemingway. Dad responded very humorously and told Hemingway to call us to apologize.
2. The first time I went to see a psychiatrist, the music played was the wedding song that could make him fall apart at any time. After the crash, he and the doctor recalled the bathroom accident. Here, it's so sad. .
3. Someone came to their home and asked for a psychological interview, but my father refused to protect Pat. He closed the door and said to him: Human beings are so stupid that they don't know what they are talking about. Don't let them hurt you.
4. Pat tried to be friends with T according to the advice of the psychiatrist, and made an appointment to eat in the restaurant. Tiffany said that Pat looked a bit like her. Pat disagreed, thinking it was wrong to tie them together, he was normal. T began to go crazy. Including the scene outside the restaurant, the actor and actress played really well.
5. Pat's brother Jake, a successful man, came back and showed off to him: how good he is now and how bad his brother is. Pat didn't lose control, but calmly expressed his love for his brother and gave him a hug.
6. The handling of the very tense father-son relationship is also a good part of this film. Finally, Pat father said passage is a mentor and a little funny:
