Two middle-aged people, one was divorced for two years and depressed; the other was about to get married, but was unwilling to get married. So they embarked on a journey, one to remember the past, one to say goodbye to the past. This movie, "A Life With Wine", is the story of two people. Miles was divorced and has never believed in marriage ever since. Even in the face of a new relationship, he is very indecisive. Finally, he finally realized that he: "I am a fingerprint on the window of a skyscraper! I am a toilet paper when I go to the toilet! I am a trash dumped into the ocean!" At this point, he was already aware of everything There is no longer any hope. He confessed to the woman: "My book is said to be unmarketable. I am not doing well. I am divorced. I am not a writer either." He has no hope. Instead, being relieved, the woman threw an olive branch for him again. Finally, he mustered up his courage and knocked on the door. Another protagonist, Jack. He is about to get married on Saturday. He feels that he may never have the opportunity to indulge, so he deliberately presumptuously sees a woman loves a woman, just wanting to escape the marriage he is about to fall into. However, when he got into huge trouble, maybe even the marriage he wanted to escape from might never be obtained again, he realized that it turned out that that marriage is his bottom line, and if he loses it In that marriage, it is possible that everything will be lost. At this moment, he suddenly realized. It turns out that this movie, everything, talks about how to face oneself. Facing yourself honestly is perhaps the hardest thing in the world. I suddenly thought of Zhou Xingchi, his whole life, I don't know how many mortals envy. When he was interviewed by Chai Jing, he said that he was out of luck. He said that if he started all over again, he would definitely not choose this way. Haruki Murakami said: Who likes to be alone, but doesn't like disappointment. Perhaps everyone who arrives in middle age is afraid of disappointment. Miles was afraid of disappointment, so facing his own heart, he dared not confide in the truth. Jack is afraid of disappointment, so facing his true self, he is unwilling to admit that he has nowhere to go. Many people are not withdrawn, but most of the time, they still find it too difficult and difficult to face themselves. Because if you accidentally show your feathers, but in exchange for the other person's look blank and panic, you will always feel very embarrassed and embarrassed. Therefore, simply close yourself up and don't confide in your heart easily. Maybe you will miss a lot, but at least you won't embarrass yourself. This movie allows us to face ourselves truly. Even the most ordinary men and women, like those in the same building Fingerprints, you should also face your own sorrows and joys naturally. Even if you are frustrated, you have to face yourself truly. Just like the bottle of 1961 red wine in the movie, don't care what date or who is used to match this bottle of wine. As long as you want to open this bottle of wine, then this day is an anniversary in itself. You face yourself truly, every day is a day worth celebrating
