This drama was mentioned by Li Dan in the Thirteenth Invitation. At that time, after reading the reviews, I thought it was too sad and I didn't dare to watch it for a while. I had an idea at the time: if you want to be funny, you have to try your best to get yourself into a sad mood. The more painful you feel, the more funny you can bounce back. After watching this drama, I am not as sad and desperate as I imagined, or it may be that my ability to feel emotions is not sensitive enough and relatively dull, or it may be that I always feel that the plot scenes in the drama have some deep meaning and are not fully immersed.

The scene of this play is almost only two floors up and down the bar. The rules of the bar are so old-fashioned that there is no electronic information equipment inside the bar. At the same time, we can't see the day and night outside. The content of the frequent exchanges to judge what era is now. There is no plot in the whole play. It is almost entirely based on dialogue, and it does not have coherence and memory points. It seems that Louis deliberately wants to make such a play that does not conform to the laws of the market to express what he thinks in his heart. The idea of ​​​​is unadorned, and there may be a feeling that the foreword is inconsistent, so this is also a very personal work of his free will.

Horace is a middle-aged bald uncle. He enlarged his wife's sister's belly during his wife's pregnancy. He has been single since the family broke down. His daughter will take care of him but treat him badly, and his son has never met. he. Years later, his ex-wife also had an incestuous encounter. The two chatted for an episode in a bar. They did not forgive, but at least they could find someone to listen to her. Pete was originally his older brother, but when he was sixty years old, he suddenly learned that Uncle Pete was his father, and he knew so casually that he was mentally ill and had been relying on medication to relieve his condition. Later, my sister came and wanted to sell a tavern for treatment, but the two of them didn't allow it. They felt that this was a tradition and a dream, and they had nowhere else to put themselves.

Whoever is unhappy with whoever speaks out directly, it’s so straightforward that it’s ridiculous enough that it’s almost too lazy to modify his own words, like a sister who is completely expressionless and tells the bad things about Pete’s girlfriend and his history of mental illness, completely Don't care if the atmosphere is awkward and don't want to be polite, I guess Louie is trying to embarrass us in front of the screen for them, and they don't feel anything about it themselves. The customer asked the old man if the wine had been mixed with water, and the old man directly and confidently said yes, and even let the questioning guests get out. The appointment is also direct, like Sheldon, there is no foreshadowing, no hypocrisy. Similarly, it is politically incorrect to say sensitive words such as "nigger", "cunt", etc., but he wants to say it deliberately, so he puts such a behavior on another mentally Any meaning, only mental illness can do whatever it wants.

Positive people feel that they have to get up early and compete with fate; negative people want to be intoxicated and sleep a little longer, so that they can spend this fucking life in the most paralyzing way and get over it quickly. At a certain time you want to cry, but you can't cry, so you use other to force yourself to cry to express your emotions, but you know that what you want to express is not the same as what you really express.

The pub sells alcohol to different people at different prices, which is obviously discriminatory, and they are justifiable, and even the reasons they give make us feel very reasonable. The first person was charged two dollars because living nearby is to find a place with alcohol to drink, and the second person was charged three dollars because they knew that besides coming to drink, he could also feel the novelty in this special place and drink A friend brought it here to show his ability to find something new while laughing here, the extra dollar he spent was an additional payment for his enjoyment, and he obviously bought more than the first customer. It seems unreasonable, but isn't this price discrimination, but the merchants in our real life do this behind the scenes.

This is my life, it's completely different from the plan, his ex-girlfriend took the matter of her husband's death very lightly. Accepted, it seems that we are too serious, too serious, too serious, and take things seriously. I think we have to force ourselves to take things seriously, but that's what happens when things don't go away. , you always have to get used to being hated.

The dating software helps you find people with similar hobbies and matching conditions. Yes, you have selected a person who is passable at first sight from so many people. It seems to be love at first sight, but you also find that you hate him very much. What is the difference between this kind of channel that is too purposeful and blind date? Big data does not seem to be able to calculate love. It depends on chemical reaction. On the contrary, there are many loving people who say, "I never thought about it at first. Be with him." Falling in love rather than intentionally is a problem that doesn't seem to be solved, it seems like it's useless to do anything, and it's more likely never to happen, it just doesn't happen to you.

I didn't understand the last episode at the beginning, how come I haven't seen these characters, I didn't understand until the customer at the bar was scolding President Carter. The position scolded the same things in society. Pete's mental illness was estimated to be the result of domestic violence, and his father who abused him was not his biological father, and his biological father continued to dislike children beside him. The mother only took her own children, and the parents left such a mess. No matter what Pete is, whether he is a brother or not, whether he is mentally ill or not, it doesn't matter much to people in their fifties or sixties, Horace still misses him and doesn't want to believe the fact that he is gone, and finally he finally walks through the familiar door Back, we thought the hope was coming to see how Pete told the story of his disappearance, and he picked up the knife and killed Horace, which would have helped him end the pain. In the end, Horace's son came and asked his aunt what kind of person he was. The aunt said flatly that he was a man, and it seemed that it was nothing to remember, but it was such a person that made the usually mean aunt cry and cry. The voice is scary enough, and it can be regarded as a hint of warmth.

"Let's vote for Trump because we have to help poor people, how kind we are."

"Cancer is when your body is flirting with death."

"With normal people, you are not sure if they will make mistakes. People who have killed people have no reason to make mistakes."

"Don't ask questions if you don't want to know the answer."
