The pressure of the gap on ordinary people

It's a very profound movie, and some people chalk it up to the protagonist's moaning, I don't agree, the moaning you see is because you didn't reach that level.

This world is divided into classes. Some people are born rich and some people are born poor. All we can see are people in our own circle. Just like officialdom, there will be no intersection between central cadres and grassroots cadres. Yes, unless they are the second generation of officials. Every class has difficulties at every class, and these things are incomprehensible to other classes, just like Brad didn't understand when he told that band girl how he felt, and it boiled down to their absence In a circle, the girl in the band usually comes into contact with people who have to pay attention to even eating, and Brad is a typical middle class, so when he first talked about his job, the girl was envious, but he felt that it was the same. That way.

In fact, I really understand Brad's unhappy breakup with his friends at the end, because he couldn't accept the humiliation brought by that sense of difference. The humiliation did not come from others, but from himself. Since college, he has been a child in the eyes of others. , loved by the teacher, but after entering the society, he lived a very ordinary life. When he saw those who were not as good as him, how could he remain calm when he knew that he was once a competitor In the end, when you don't take care of yourself at all, how can you not be sad. This feeling cannot be accurately described in words, and I believe most people can understand it.

Maybe we're fine in the eyes of others, but who knows? In fact, we are not so good, nor so unbearable, just like the last scene of the movie, when the son tells his father that I love you, we will understand that everyone in this world only cares about themselves, except for your family and one or two True friend.

Finally, I hope everyone can live the life they want, if not, then cherish the moment, cherish relatives, cherish friends, cherish everything you have.

Brad's Status quotes

  • Brad Sloan: [narrating] Her friend, Maya was equally captivating, equally compelling. I suddenly felt a deep grief... for all the women I would never love and all the lives I would never live. I imaging running away with them both and starting again and what that might look like.

  • Troy Sloan: When we were walking around today and you embarrassing me, I kept thinking, like, you know, if I go to this school, everybody here's gonna remember this and I'm never gonna live this down. But... you know, they're not gonna remember. Because, everybody's just thinking about themselves. You know? Nobody cares. Like, the only person that's thinking about you, is me, so... the only person's opinion that you should really care about is mine.

    Brad Sloan: Yeah. What's your opinion?

    Troy Sloan: Well, I love you.

    Brad Sloan: Thank you.
