I would like to admire the author of the original novel. He has fully demonstrated the psychological state, external performance, contact with the outside world of patients with bipolar disorder, as well as the different reactions of family members, neighbors, and colleagues to patients with bipolar disorder. The small details portray different characters and characters are quite plump and in place.
The male protagonist’s father’s obsessive-compulsive disorder and violent temper, a large part of the mental illness comes from heredity and the influence of childhood parents;
when the male protagonist’s emotions are out of control, hearing voices, uncontrollable limbs, regret and self-blame after calm down, low self-esteem, Inability to communicate effectively with others. Especially he is reluctant to take medicine. They are all very real plots.
However, as the plot continues to unfold, the American comedy characteristics of the film gradually appear, and it is difficult to continue to experience and substitute with a serious mentality. When he saw the hero's father decide to make a bet with Randy, he could only regret disappointment and sigh. Obviously, the climax has arrived, but there is no suspense at the end.
There is basically no reason and nourishment in this kind of comedy. It will make people have fun in the movie theater, and they will be refreshed for a while. When the film ends and you get out of the theater, you may soon forget the plot. The truth in the film is difficult to find projection in reality. If you believe it and try to copy it, the only thing that greets you is a cruel blow. Just like cola and fried chicken, eating and drinking are refreshing, happy, and joyful, and you will gain weight in the end. Because life is a technical job, we never give a good face to blind optimists.
Regrettably, the subject matter that was originally good is actually just the old-fashioned framework of American popcorn comedy. Originally, many powerful actors can only act like crazy and behave stupidly.
Especially Robert De Niro, sir, you have a meaningful and clever face. When you see you, we will know that it is the godfather. It is a taxi driver in the United States. Meeting your father-in-law may be the bottom line for many of your fans. Yes, please don't take this kind of play of playing a stupid old American man, can you? ! Martin Scorsese is your true love. Don't worry, we will never get bored with you. . .
The tone of American comedy is always that a bunch of complicated situations, because of someone’s self-confidence, persistence, and courage, turn into a simple, one-sentence truth. As long as you believe in this truth, you will be successful and happy. . In the end, I feel that everyone is holding their heads up, confident, swearing swearing, and uttering what is in their hearts. Everyone is living a happy life with simple minds and well-developed limbs. How to solve the problem specifically, whatever, if there is no reason, it is solved.
Is this not scientific at all? !
The WASP (American mainstream values population) in this kind of film, especially the blonde and white beauty, are mostly paranoid and realistic annoying selfish queens with excessive control desires, endlessly torturing men and women around them, such as those in Mean girls. The cheerleader, the sister of the heroine in this film, are all beautiful, well-built, overly active, value material things, and ignore other people's feelings. Usually in the movie, such people are ridiculed in the end, and the heroines who are opposite to them are ordinary, but light in their hearts. They seem to be rude, but in fact they are sincere and frank. In the end, everyone loves her.
The reality is often completely different from this, and the chance of a female Dios counterattacking Bai Fumei is small and small.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that this kind of cardio-like comedy has a market. Thinking of this, I don’t want to laugh, because if I laugh at such an unskilled, dream-like ending, it can only prove that I am a man. Loser without judgment.
It may also be that I am really old, unable to dream, and unwilling to be fooled easily.
Speaking of this movie, for those who like American comedy, the first half of the film is ridiculous and lacks eye-catching highlights; for those who like to watch more in-depth literary and artistic films, the second half of the film is too far-fetched and conventional.
If this is a dream, then the first half is too realistic; if this is a story, there are too many false elements.
Movie fans nowadays are too difficult to serve, ha ha. .

Finally, let me talk about the mental illness involved in the film-manic depression
is now under great social pressure. Adults have some psychological problems, and there are not a few people who develop into mental illness. Manic depression, to be precise, is depressive manic depression. It is different from general depression patients, avoiding people and refusing to socialize. They have a wide range of interests, like lively, talk more, hyperactive, and even hoarse, but they are not tired. The energy is very vigorous and I feel surprisingly good. I think my body has never been so healthy and energy has never been so full. I think I am agile, a look and ten lines, etc.,
like the male protagonist in the film fitness and reading, the female protagonist sleeps all the men and women in the office.
However, their mood changes are extremely ups and downs. When manic episodes, they are prone to irritability, and because of some trivial trivial matters, opinions are refuted, or requirements are not met, they will jump into thunder and even destroy and attack. The association process speeded up noticeably, concepts followed one after another, with a lot of voices and endless talk. Due to distraction, the topic often shifts from place to place, and there will be erratic ideas and synonymous phenomena. In the first half of the film, the protagonist's words and all kinds of weird behaviors are very vivid.
For example, the male protagonist in the film was completely unable to communicate with his parents when he first returned home, as if a chicken was talking to a duck, and he complained to his parents about Hemingway in the middle of the night.
It's like when the hostess suddenly left the dinner party at her sister's house. On the way home, she hugged the hostess and slapped him in pain. . . .
Fortunately, the two of them had separate episodes, which ensured their self-healing smoothly and the possibility of falling in love.
In the film, the male protagonist, because of his father's strict education and the invisibly suppressed by his excellent brother, has formed a character that requires perfection in everything, with beginning and end, and he has a grumpy temper. After witnessing his wife's affair with others, he was unable to control his emotions, showing violence, refusing to communicate, auditory hallucinations, and inability to concentrate and other pathological behaviors. Resistant to treatment. On the one hand, he firmly believes that he is not ill and refuses to take medicine. On the other hand, he shows self-blame and a sense of powerlessness for his loss of control.
There are many similarities between the female protagonist and the male protagonist. The parents are the supporters of mainstream ideas. There is a very successful sister in a broad sense. She has an inferiority complex. After the death of her husband, she is understood as a licentious person and cannot face it. Fear of frustration, sadness, and misunderstanding of sadness can only be comforted by constantly making love and seduce others. He was not forcibly sent to a mental hospital because he did not act violently. In fact, his illness is no worse than that of the male protagonist.
Fortunately, both of them have the intention to solve psychological problems, and through dancing, concentration, to resolve anger, fear, anxiety and loneliness.
In reality, depression also has these characteristics and onset manifestations of the hero and heroine. Unfortunately, the recovery of depression is far less simple and interesting than a comedy movie.
The probability of recurrence of depression is extremely high, and most patients require life-long medications, which have great side effects. The pain they bring to people around them is far more than the team losing, and they don't let you sleep so easily in the middle of the night.
I won't talk more about it here. Interested comrades can chat privately or find relevant books and materials.
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------
Regardless of the filming, I personally Like it or not, I have to admit that at least one meaning is good, and there is sunshine behind the dark clouds. No matter how cruel life is, stay positive and optimistic or good.
In addition, just ignore it, the female protagonist’s enchanting waist, the male protagonist’s handsome face, Stiles and Robert De Niro, who can’t help but dance, the feuds of Philadelphia and New York, and FILA’s various sports and leisure clothes. . . . . blahblah. . . .
