Watched for sweet tea.

The soundtrack of the movie is too low, and many of the soundtracks are very abrupt and unclear.

The director may be mainly on the record, which leads to the vagueness of the meaning conveyed by the film. The gloomy temperament of sweet tea itself is very consistent with the role.

The movie shows more when Nick is sober, rather than the fascinated look after taking drugs. When he is sober, Nick is always remorseful and ashamed, and wants to quit drug addiction, but too much self-reproach and shame makes him think more To get rid of drug addiction, the father most of the time was puzzled about the reasons for his son's drug use, eagerly hoped that his son would return to the right track, and suspected that his son would relapse, all of which were invisibly aggravating Nick's shame, so David looked at Nick's diary recording his drug addiction journey. It is the most important and meaningful part of the film.

After Nick performed the normal, expected side in front of his parents and family, when he was alone, there was only a greater emptiness left to be filled with drugs, which was one of the reasons for his constant relapse. But the movie, like the novel, ultimately doesn't make it clear why Nick was addicted to drugs in the first place.

Although the movie does not intend to excuse drug addicts, it does want to convey the helplessness and inner loneliness and helplessness of drug addicts. The ultimate drug addiction is not only an inner surrender, but also an increasingly accumulated disease (damage of genes and dopamine neurons). ).

The movie may hope that the family members of drug addicts can, like David, fully understand the pain and struggle of drug addict Nick, and guide, help, and accompany them more understandingly and patiently, and don’t lose confidence in them.

    Although the expectation value is automatically lowered, I still feel very angry after reading it. The theme of anger + cast is just wasted. If it is particularly bad, it can be criticized severely, and I am most afraid of making such a mediocre work as it is now. The characters are miserable from the beginning to the end, the front and rear perspectives are all problematic in the presentation of the structure and motives, and even the soundtrack is disturbing... In the end, let's be the easter egg of

    Hastily released, low-key publicity, and zero discussion on the Internet, I guessed that this movie was Fu.

  • David Sheff: Do you know how much I love you? If you could take all the words in the language, it still wouldn't describe how much I love you. And if you could gather all those words together, it still wouldn't describe what I feel for you. What I feel for you is everything. I love you more than everything.
