I finally finished watching "Happiness Terminal" last night, and finally wanted to write something. "Happiness Terminal", I started watching it in the computer room of the school last year, but I only saw the beginning. I bought a disc again during the winter vacation, but it turned out that half of the disc could not be released. So when I went home, I downloaded it again, but after I downloaded it, I didn't have time to watch it. Yesterday, if it weren't for the hard drive to be deleted and freed up after reading it in a hurry, maybe I wouldn't watch it yet.
"Happiness Terminal", finished watching. I realized that it was another fairy tale about jazz. Victor Novorsky, played by Hanks, has been holding a jar of canned peanut butter, and everyone wants to know what's in it. Later, he told his friends at the airport that it was Jazz inside. Later, he told the beauty Zeta Jones that there was a promise. There were 56 autographs of jazz masters in it, and it was his father who entrusted him to write many letters in English to send to the United States. His father has a photo with 57 jazz masters on it. His father wanted 56 autographs, only one, and he died. Novorsky promised that his father would go to New York to get this last signature.
It turns out that this movie still promotes the two things that Americans are most proud of: New York, and jazz.
New York represents freedom.
At the end of the movie, Novorsky finally walked out of the airport and set foot on American soil. He called in a taxi, and the driver asked him where he was coming from. He said Kakozhya (the fictional country name in the movie). The driver said he was from Algeria and had just arrived on Thursday. This is the America that Americans want foreigners to know. No matter where you are from, as long as you come, you have a chance.
"Happiness Terminal", a beautiful and false movie, tells a story that can only happen in fairy tales. Zeta Jones, who appears to be 25 years old, said she was 39 years old. Stabbed an old policeman in India working as a cleaner at an airport in New York. Novorsky lived in the airport for 9 months because of passport issues, and he actually found a job as a decorator, earning more than a customs officer. In order to date Zeta Jones, he bought it in the clothing store in the airport. A suit of HUGO BOSS. It actually made a big fountain using the drinking pool and broken plates in the airport.
So "Happiness Terminal" is a fairy tale about America, about jazz, about freedom, about love, about destiny and... However, a fairy tale is a fairy tale, no matter how false it is, it will make people like it. It's like reading Grimm's fairy tales when I was young, knowing that they are all fake, I still hope that they are true.
There are never such simple and beautiful things in reality, so we have to let them all happen in fairy tales.


I have always wanted to revisit the Smurfs again. Recently I found out that it was available for download, so I downloaded an episode to watch, but I was disappointed after watching it. It was completely amused for children, but now I feel too silly to see it again. But despite this, the fond memories of watching the Smurfs as a child cannot be erased.

Speaking of "Happiness Terminal", I couldn't help thinking of the Smurfs again. In the second half of the film, the customs officer in "Happiness Terminal" seems to have deliberately opposed Novorsky by preventing him from setting foot in New York. I couldn't help but think of Gege Witch. At the beginning of the Smurfs, Gege Witch chased the Smurfs and shouted, I hate you, I want to catch you all. When he was a child, Gridwu felt so terrible. It turned out that the reason he wanted to catch the Smurfs was just because he hated it, and catching the Smurfs had become his life's business.

Every story must have a bad guy, otherwise there will be no dramatic conflicts. And all the bad guys don't have a bad enough motive, this is a fairy tale.

I still remember watching the Japanese version of Swan Lake when I was a child, and felt that the devil inside was so terrible, it could turn a little squirrel into a toad. I bought a disc not long ago to see it, but found that the devil looks really cute, just like the big fat in Dora A's dream.
