One is an old man who never compromises on his dreams and who considers himself a great writer. One is an unemployed young man who grew up in a single-parent family and has a talent for writing. They are a pair of strange father and son who have never met before, and they reunite again by chance due to the compulsion of life after 18 years of separation. However, the disparate personalities between the two, mutual distrust, incomprehension, deception, rejection, until the final break, made them fall into the abyss of self-indulgent degeneration. But both share the same traits, a dream of becoming a writer and a woman they both love deeply. In the end, the family relationship between father and son brought them back to their normal life track and continued to pursue their own life dreams.

De Niro plays the old father, a cocky, arrogant, unhappy writer who dreams of being as famous as Mark Twain. I can only make a living by driving the classic yellow taxi like a ghost and wandering around the city alone. Just like in "The Angry Bull", the old man is still as fierce as he was in the past. After rolling the sheets, he takes it The stick rushes downstairs to fight the rock band together. Two scenes in the film left a deep impression on me. One is the photos of his beloved wife and his young son hanging on the wall at home. Although they have never seen each other, they still miss their family and keep in touch with each other. The son vaguely remembers his father's teachings. : "We came into the world to help others". The father hopes that his son can inherit his writing talent and continue his dream of becoming a writer. When his son's poetry collection is published in a volume, the father is pleased to frame the cover and hang it on the wall. .

The mother is the most tragic character in the film. A single mother raises her weak son alone. The boring and heavy work, family and social pressure have stifled young women's yearning for youth and freedom. They can only bring some comfort by constantly changing boyfriends. membership. In the end, when I saw my son's self-reported novel, which revealed the helpless life of my mother, and reflected the infinite loss and pain in my mother's heart, I couldn't let it go. It's a pity that the son ended his life with a bullet before the completion of the part of the son's deep love and gratitude to his mother. I don't know if life would be the same if she could wait until that part was done. The mother's story runs through the entire film as closely connected as a zipper, affecting the relationship between father and son, and becomes the link to communicate the feelings of father and son in the film.

What also surprised me is that the film depicts a complete shelter and rescue system for vulnerable groups. The American society in which humanitarianism is practiced and people care for each other is truly warm and touching. Finally, let's talk about the girlfriend of the young writer. I felt familiar during the process of watching it. I suddenly remembered that it was the close friend in the movie "Juno". I haven't appeared in a work for a long time. It turns out that short hair can be so beautiful, it must be continued. pay attention to.

Finally, the original sound of the recommended video, the style you like, must be downloaded!
