One is a professor of literature at Carnegie Mellon University, with first-class academic literacy, but hates colleagues, hates students, hates life, hates everything, and is busy and doesn’t know why;
the other is a poor and unemployed homeless person who has no formal job, but loves life. Infect everyone with happiness, and enjoy life leisurely;
who are smart people?

A seemingly plain film, with a seemingly plain name, and the director's debut, I didn't have much hope, but I didn't expect to meet Allen Page and Sarah Jessica Parker in it, so I was pleasantly surprised at the beginning of the film For a while. As the plot unfolds, I like this drama more and more, because it is so real, so real that it makes me feel an inexplicable depression. It's completely my dish~~~~~

I feel very sad to see that professor, even the academic world without academic corruption is far from being as beautiful as we imagined, and the days of using brain cells to fight publishers and editors for a lifetime It is very anxious, unless you are Newton Hawking Einstein Curie. The feeling when you have to use what you love as a tool; when you are constantly modifying your own wisdom for the editor's liking; when your baby is not seen by others; in achievements and status Under the halo, there may still be a little helplessness and sentimentality hidden.

Allen Page is still young and old inside. Wisdom and clean forehead, slightly raised forehead lines, perfect SAT scores, she seems mature and powerful, but who knows how fragile her heart is? How many untold secrets did she hide? Maybe all the naughty shells are to protect the soft heart full of secrets in the heart.

Sticking to the blurred line between self and self-absorbed is a question of how to balance it. People who have self will exude charming charm, just as in the movie Janet falls in love with Lawrence, a learned and rigorous Victorian literature professor, but after a date, she finds out that the professor she has been secretly in love with turns out to be a very self-absorbed person. He can be at 45. Zhong Nai talks about himself

Favorite topics without caring about other people's feelings at all. Janet suddenly lost interest in him. Everyone needs to be cared about, no matter how much they love each other. Only those who love others are more lovable.

The ego is like a lake, choosing to follow the current will turn into a small stream without scenery; choosing to stand still will turn into a lifeless pool of stagnant water. While sticking to one's own territory, and having a polite and harmonious interaction with the surrounding playthings, it will keep oneself peaceful and beautiful at the same time.

At the end of the film, the no-nonsense professor begins to play humor in class.
Smile.
Love is our only salvation.
