Those who know how to drink know how to love, and those who know how to love know how to drink. The film focuses on wine, extending the farewell single activity before the wedding, which stretches on the highway with the bright California sun. The four people developed affection and love around the wine, and in this way interesting, bitter and sweet memories and experiences occurred.
In the film, the two male protagonists miles and jack are added together, which is simply a combination of Dionysus, the god of wine. Miles is good at tasting wine. Faced with his wife's divorce and the unappreciated work, his bones are gradually filled with depression and melancholy, but the trough that slowly walked out of Maya's love, used Chavel Blanc 1961 to water his sorrow. And Jack is a frustrated actor, who often thinks in his lower body. Testosterone and dopamine spread to his nerve center.
The flat and straightforward narrative style, mixed with California sunshine, spreads in the folds of the story, and the smooth wind did not encounter Hollywood-style "car crashes", "cops and robbers gun battles" and other weirdness. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a road movie, but the screenwriter has no philosophy at all. Several cities in California simply use letters instead. Wherever the red convertible goes, it is filled with the interweaving of fine wine and hunting beauty. You can drink wine for life, and stop and taste. Giamatii, the actor of
one person’s wine glass
miles, has played countless small roles, just like Wu Mengda in Hong Kong movies. Although he is not so brilliant and funny, but he was able to provide such superb acting skills in his acting career in his later years. I look forward to his next work "Iron Armor". And Jack’s actor, church, joined the American drama "episodes" this year. The two little characters who have been in Hollywood for decades are still performing in this film. I believe it is the tempering of their little roles that made the screenwriters give up. Clooney's please Ying.
I have a few friends, they sometimes perfunct me, they don’t appreciate my work, we can drink together and make girls together, enjoy the bitter cold wind, and see the shady moonlight together. When we encounter difficulties, we can It turns out that we are not friends of wine and meat, let alone friends of fox and dogs, we are brothers.
I have never had love, not even my first love, but I have longed for it, and I can even confess it nervously. Miles and I are both old and old. I even like the girl I once liked. If you can find so much consensus from the protagonist of a movie, you will really applaud the movie because you are the protagonist. He is playing a role, you are playing life.
The worst times are the best chances, self-pity, and find yourself in movies. The stubbornness, low self-esteem, depression, neuroticism, and impulsivity in Miles are all things I have. In terms of temperament, I feel that Miles and I are the same people, not appreciated, impoverished, and unloved characteristics may be the characteristics of me in the future.
In the word-filling game that Miles usually does, every time he fills in a word, he must take into account the choice of other words, but in real life, Miles is not as handy as the word-filling, he has to spend it in the choice, and the worst thing is, His choices are always out of consideration. And I, always indecisive, let opportunities slip through my fingers, and never have a choice. In the end, it is still me and miles who are injured.
Miles's mother didn't particularly love her son. From the perspective of Miles' novels, he combined his own experience in the novel, depicting a man taking care of his father who suffered a stroke, and finally looked at the world with his father's eyes. Apart from flirting with Jack, her mother was chatting with miles about Vicki. Miles only took out his hidden private money when he was free, and continued on the road with Jack. I dare not say that he does not love his mother, but his father's death and the failure of his marriage have dealt a huge blow to him, and he is responsible for all of this.
Shanyin’s miles don’t have many collections, they drink bottle by bottle. The keen sense of smell, sight, and taste did not improve his life, on the contrary increased his loneliness and helplessness. His excellent alcoholism made him extraordinary in the wine road, but his decadent life made him helpless.
In fact, Pino is the confession of miles. It can only be rooted in a few corners of the special world. Only the most patient and meticulous growers can grow it. Only those who are really willing to spend time and those who truly understand the potential can lead to the prosperity. Stage, and the final fragrance will be the most durable, the most brilliant, the most shocking, the most subtle, the oldest, and it will be extraordinary on the entire planet. And Miles’ self-pity, desperate impulse, depression, moodiness, no one dared to appreciate it, and even needed drugs and lyric games to soothe his broken heart. Isn’t these all the most true portrayals of Pino?
Chavel Blanc61 should have been a ceremony for miles. His rebellion, love, freedom, and passion are all in this bottle of wine. When he and Maya were talking about this wine, Miles said that this bottle of wine needs a special occasion and a special person. It was opened on the tenth anniversary of his and Vicki’s marriage, but the intellectual Maya answered this way—you open it. Its time is a special moment. The climax of the film I understand is that Miles is serving fast food in a fast food restaurant, surreptitiously pouring the bottle of 61 into a Coke cup, without tilting 45 degrees, without sticking the nose into the cup, without sloshing and oxidizing, and without observing the color of the edge of the wine. , Only one drink can dispel the anger, sadness, inferiority, and resentment in his chest, turn it into a block and flow in his heart, and then quickly rush out of the clouds.
The quartet
love in wine is not gazing at each other, but looking in the same direction. The love in the film is revealed in several places. First, the love between Miles and Vicki, but it was broken because of Miles’ derailment; Jack and Christine’s marriage showed Jack’s helplessness and paved the way for his turmoil and cleverness; Jack The affair with Stepine, Jack's slickness and sexual impulse, make people cold and handsome; the love between Miles and Maya is the warmest, most charming, and most regrettable passage in the film. It can be said that these passages give Miles the courage to continue to live.
The glass of wine reflects not only the color of the wine, but also the innermost part of the characters through the reflection of sunlight. Wine has given vitality to everyone in the film, including Miles’ ex-wife Vicki. When the two talked about drinking, Vicki’s few words about drinking because of pregnancy directly led Miles to waste his treasured 61. That kind of sadness cannot be ignored. Humane sadness, only Miles can bear it.
Miles can muster up the courage and take a kind of loneliness as his own baptism. Miles will continue his life of drinking wine. Jack who accepts the Orthodox wedding may never let go of his prodigal heart, but miles will be in the future. I really found a confidant-a close friend of life and death different from a friend like Jack. His novels are appreciated, his loneliness is no longer lonely, his life can continue, the unknown hidden in the ending is no longer important. This loneliness has naturally become a mood, which can be given as a gift to the beloved to listen to, and it is also a good thing.
Loneliness is not only noble and sometimes shameful, but loneliness can be defeated by the loneliness of the heart, and noble to be independent from the world: and Zhang Chu, who can spring up, slowly sing "Lonely people are shameful." Miles' loneliness is worrying, because he is born with a long history of loneliness, even in the introduction of his novel "the day after yesterday" can be seen. But he was restless and melancholic, and needed the help of antidepressants to calm him down, and the sadness after the cold silence wrote of his unremitting efforts.
Sometimes we make ourselves lonely because we long for love. We, who are suffering from attachments, don't realize this. Instead, we will hurt each other more frantically. Longing but not asking, but not asking. Miles yearns for love and being loved. Two years of divorce made him lose his established track. He sticks to his last position and does not know where he can finally fall. Fortunately, he still has brothers, and Confidant; Jack is about to become a groom, but he can't let go of his stray and actor dreams. Whether an old woman has a fat girl with a waist and a thin waist, or a ugly foreigner of the same sex, he can take it all for a while. A painful man, the links of comedy and humor often meander from his bones; Maya has experienced marital deception, but she has recovered herself from wine tasting and gardening, and her love for wine has gradually made her comprehend life Closer to miles, two calm hearts slowly throbbed. Maya’s antibodies to lies did not form after all, but her kind and intellectual nature made Miles no longer depressed. Stepine also experienced failed marriages (three out of four have experienced it) After a failed marriage, Jack’s debauchery is likely to lead him to follow in the footsteps of the three. I don’t know whether the lessons of the wedding ring and a happy marriage can make him truly mature.) Although the film does not overly write about Stepine’s misfortune, she is hearty and strong. It still makes people's eyes bright.
Maya is undoubtedly a very successful character in the film. The double-tail pattern on her lips even reminds me of the girl I had a crush on. As the ex-wife of a philosophy professor, Maya was talking about personal wine tasting experience with Miles at Stepine’s house. She is good at thinking about the life of wine, she likes to think about what happens in the year when the grapes are ripe, and how the sun is swagger; when it rains, she likes to think about the people who cultivate and pick grapes, if it is an aged wine If so, how many people are no longer alive now. She likes wine constantly evolving, for example, if you open a bottle of wine today, the taste of wine will be different from opening it at other times, because wine is alive. And it keeps evolving, and keeps getting new elements, so that it reaches its peak, like the 61 of miles, and then it starts to stabilize, inevitably recedes, and its taste becomes too good.
Drinking for two people
The young man in white clothes is no longer flamboyant, and all that is left is the middle-aged cowboy who is tired of drawing a gun and bleeding five steps with his back on the yellow sand wasteland. In an attempt to break the contradictory fable-like life, but the ending is still old-fashioned, subdued in it, the youth is no longer, burning the piano and boiling the crane, bowing his head in silence. But life is eight sufferings, birth, old age, sickness and death, separation of love, unwillingness, resentment, five yin excesses, why are the four sufferings after life not related to love, the result of lust and greed will never be good.
If you have been waiting for yourself to become an angel before you love, you will always miss love. Maya is the goddess of Miles, although Miles did not completely come out of Vicki’s shadow, everything is unspoken, we also have reason to believe that Miles will not feel inferior even if he is not met, because he believes his confidant will always support him. Go down.
Cowardice imprisons people's souls and hopes to make you feel free. The strong will save themselves, and the winner will survive. Miles' cowardice gradually faded in the scent of wine on the highway, and the rhythm of the ups and downs brewed the next day's prosperity. Although a little melancholy and a little helpless, Miles was relieved by his successful escape. He could finally calmly treat Vicki's bigamy and pregnancy and treat Maya. Give him the last hope and treat the bottle of Chavel Blanc 1961.
Long white rabbits are walking around looking around, people are not the same, clothes are not as good as new. In the film, Maya and Miles talked about wine together, and when they shared their understanding of wine, I couldn't help but think of Bai Juyi's poem-green ant new wine, red clay small stove, the sky is snowy in the evening, and I can drink a cup of nothing. This implied sentiment can also be discovered by the two unconsciously holding hands. Of course, if Xia Chong can't talk about it, the two did not have a superb tasting and understanding on the wine. Then, I think Miles and Maya may never get out of failure. The two redeemed each other's souls.
There is no gloom in the place where the sun is invisible. There is no gloom in the wilderness of Santa Barara in Southern California. We follow the camera, babbling through the humorous dialogue and gentle and euphemistic details, as the time of the week is arbitrary. Shuttle in the world of wine. The wine is naturally a bit sour, but the bright yellow hue makes us cruising in pleasure and softness, and the strong resonance of miles and maya once again ripples lightly to a new realm of life. Even if emotions cannot be smoothed due to boundaries, they will melt into a smile if they can't reach the end.
Maya's speech is often haunted by episodes, intermittent, like weeping like a complaint, looming, but it makes people empathize. We can't help but regret that Miles lost Maya. Whether it’s Maya talking about wine with Miles when I am drunk, or Maya’s message to Miles at the end, it is full of passion but not losing wisdom. A slightly hoarse voice with a simple piano reincarnation surrounds the earlobe. The clear melody speaks, tacitly but not broken. I believe that the bottle of 61 will never become the fetters of miles again. This tells. People and this fragmented memory have really become the only faint light of miles in this world.
Willing to be played with by reality, but not driven by Jack's crookedness, obviously miles is a complex of contradictions. Sometimes, the sluggishness of consciousness is the meteorite falling into a cold stone. "I am a fingerprint on a skyscraper window/I am a piece of dung on a toilet paper wipe/Run to the sea with thousands of sewers without returning." When Miles quoted Bukowski’s verse, he The blurred vision may have blocked his talent, and his frustrated face was full of helplessness. Life is still going on. He may be able to erase his edges and corners by hitting the rocks again and again, but he persists in his reluctance to vicki, his reluctance to jack, and the feeling of Maya. No matter what happened in the past, the best is never yet. arrival.
Friendship is sometimes subtle and beautiful, but it doesn't mean you can talk and listen with all your heart. In the end, all the sadness, struggle, unwillingness, and condescension will be bitten in the mouth and rotten in the belly. Just crying alone is enough, and the whole world laughs with you. In the smile of Shanhua, you only need to celebrate with your true friend by toasting, and after a smile, you have to hurry on the road.
Singing loudly, the sword goes slanting forward, and the song goes, and all of my friends feel the throbbing heartbeat under the throbbing of youth. The lonely sandbar is cold, and the former teenagers can weave graceful dreams, or they can be bizarre, chaotic, and luxuriant.
Miles’ blurring can really be traced from Damien Rice’s singing. When I wrote this comment that can’t be regarded as a comment along with rice’s singing, I sighed, the bone-to-heart chill melted in the singing, and I swayed to sleep. With the increasing heat in Nanjing, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
