Empathy

Sometimes I just want to find a random film, unattractive, but hypnotic, and then fall asleep silently. But occasionally I encounter a good movie that excites me, and as a result I will see it in the middle of the night. For example, the dark humorous "The Treasury Heist" that I watched last night, such as last night's "Spicy Mom".

The hot lady tells a story of empathy. Empathy is the most conducive way for me to communicate with people. I often say that between lovers, friends have to communicate frequently before, so that each other knows each other's psychological process, so that we can better understand each other. It can be more accurate when thinking in empathy. In fact, it is not only between family and friends, but also in the workplace. The so-called being in his position, seeking his own business. Everyone’s position in the workplace is different, and the way they think about problems will not be the same. If you always think about problems from your own perspective, you will always talk about you and me, and conflicts will never be resolved.

Although I can accept that everyone lives with a variety of personalities and styles. But occasionally I hope to meet good people, and occasionally I can change my seat to think about it for me. But only oneself can control oneself, not anyone else, right?

In fact, empathy is very simple, listen carefully to what the other person is saying, and you will understand what the other person thinks. People's lives and attitudes are simple but not simple, but they are all traces of complexity. You really don't have to be in the other person's body to understand his situation. This is actually not a very interesting experience.

There is an irony in the film that the daughter is going to help her mother in her mother's body, as a psychologist. Then she told her "listening is very important", but she herself is not listening to her daughter. Perhaps there may be a saying that "caring is chaos" because it is a very important family member, so there is no way to objectively see what happens around him. In fact, after watching this movie, I want to say that every child is a good child. The key lies in whether you care about him and understand him. For example, Daisy initially thought that Jack, whom Anna had a crush on, knew Jack in the remorse room and that Jack was a bad boy. It turned out that Jack went to work in the regret room after learning about it, and Jack was also a mature little boy who knew what love was. Sometimes the world of a child is very simple, and adults who think that a child is not good may just have a misunderstanding of him. This is also the importance of communication.

A movie that surprises me, the actors are very good. Daisy's boyfriend Ryan is very handsome, mature and stable, and Anna's boyfriend Jack is young and energetic. The old grandfather has gray hair, always can't hear other people talking, and he likes to fight with his little grandson Harry, so cute. Having young and old at home is the happiest thing. And the old Chinese lady who caused them to switch positions is very happy.

I'm thinking, this kind of story should have been many in our Hong Kong movies, but we often use the form of ghost upper body to express. Chinese people are really mysterious to foreigners, so they will choose an old Chinese lady to have such ability.

In addition, the music is very good, because Anna is playing the underground orchestra, and both songs are very good. Every time I see this kind of orchestra in a movie, I always think of Lincoln Park. I remembered that when I was in college, I sometimes went to watch movies organized by the Film Association with my honey friends, and then their president loved Lincoln very much, and they always played Lincoln's concert at the beginning of the movie. Shocked!

Our youth that is nowhere to be traced!
