"My Ruined Life", when I clicked the title, I just encountered a setback and fell into a low point in my life. The title fits my mood at the time, so I'm curious, what exactly is this film about? I never imagined that it would hit my heart in one fell swoop. It is different from the usual practice of laughing and forgetting about comedy films. After watching this film, I save it on my hard drive. Immediately good, and every view will have a new harvest. This film will rank at the top of my "Top Ten Classic Movies in My Heart", and the ranking will not drop in a short time.
That's how life is, everyone experiences stress and it's not always smooth sailing for you. It's like if you want to be a walker, but you have to bite the bullet and obey the boss's instructions every day; you want to have fun, but you have to write test papers in the classroom; you have a lot of plans, but you are busy Life is disrupted one by one and cannot be made...
Georgia is in such a predicament. As a Greek American, she deeply loves everything about her hometown, the scenery, the food, the architecture...especially the long and moving history of Greece. After graduating from the Department of History, with a beautiful dream, she returned to Greece and applied for teaching qualifications in several universities. Living alone in a country that is both familiar and unfamiliar, Georgia had to work as a temporary tour guide in a travel agency because of her livelihood. Yet her rigour and inflexibility have often been the subject of complaints from tourists who come to Greece with a curious mind - they criticize her for telling dry history without taking them to more interesting places. Without the comfort of relatives and the company of friends, work is not going well, colleagues always run against her, and the boss always wears small shoes - the most difficult tour group is stuffed to her, and there is a personality harmony with the tourists. A collision of cultural hysteria... Georgia was so frustrated by the impending collapse of her life that she was temporarily powerless to change, and almost came to the brink of despair.
Our lives are so similar to Georgia, that we are always put on heavy shackles by life, so that we lose all enthusiasm and joy. In fact, the essence of life is bland and boring. Whether you can have fun in the ordinary depends on your mentality. Georgia started another tour guide with this bad mood. This time, she was complained by the whole group again because she was boring. The inability to communicate with the driver also made her depressed, and everything went in a more wrong direction. Thanks to this time, an optimistic and cheerful old man named Irv in the regiment told her: "When you think of work as work, it will never be fun. Ordinary life is full of fun. All the complaints, if you change the angle, it will be unique. There is an optimistic nature in the Greeks, the Greek is called "kefi", whenever there is a problem, they don't get depressed, but dance to make fun of it. No matter how busy they are, they will set aside time for coffee, coffee is more important than work There are more.” Georgia tried to practice, tried to find the bright spots in others, and changed her own vision of the world and the way of tour guides, and everything gradually began to improve: she found that everyone in the group was actually very friendly; The familiar scenery changed the way of explanation, and it had a different style; I found that the driver Poupi (pronounced as poopy, "poop"), who has always been silent and like a primitive man, is actually very thoughtful, and he is very sexy after shaving his beard... …In the end, she found true love, was recognized by all clients and bosses, and received an acceptance letter from a university lecturer. However, at this time, Georgia did not hesitate to reject the offer she was looking forward to, because at this time, She has already found her kefi and enjoys the surprises that life brings to her every day.
