After watching "Planes, Trains & Automobiles", it should be the prototype of "People on the Road", the 1987 work, the Chinese translation of "Fantastic Road Trip". I will watch this movie because it is also one of the classic examples of the "Golden Fleece" prototype. The protagonist is in order to "go home on time for Thanksgiving" (Golden Fleece/Holy Grail), overcoming all kinds of hardships along the way, but achieving the original goal At the same time (or before) obtained other precious things. There can be many different treatments at this point, such as discovering that the Golden Fleece that I cared about is just a hypocritical illusion, but I have obtained something more precious during the journey. Or like this film, double harvest, the male protagonist learns from this completely unreliable travel companion the optimistic spirit of laughter towards everything, and his previous friendliness is just polite. Coupled with the added value, more learn to get along with different people, get along with adversity, be flexible, and have a friendship. The old movies with strong plots are still fresh forever, and I don’t see them at a big discount compared to 30 years ago.

There are three breaking points in the ups and downs of the plot. The first is when the plane is stopped, the taxi is pitted and the hotel is pitted, and finally the unlucky child can't sleep, and the emotions erupt. The solution was that the unlucky child showed weakness, and did not return the attack without reluctance. This made Baifa embarrassed, and the dilemma was that he had nowhere else to go, so he could only temporarily truce and lie down to sleep. The second is that the train stopped for a bus, and I decided to leave the fat man behind and rent a car and drive home alone, but found that the car rental company was unreliable and didn't give the car at all. I could only go to the car rental office by crossing the road in the snow, but I was provoked by the poor service attitude, and my emotions broke out again. In the end, the conflict intensified to the point that the staff was knocked down with a punch, and was almost run over by a car. The solution is to get fat in and out of the car, or let's go on the road together. The third time the fat man drove the car to a retrograde road. He was almost killed by two large trucks. He laughed and said that he was not dead yet. The male protagonist exploded (who experienced the moment of life and death? The solution is that it can be even worse. The cigarette butt burned the car before, and the male protagonist was so angry that he laughed. Hahahahahahahahaha. You finally feel your own way. I see what to do when you return the car. In retrospect, how did you borrow the car without a credit card, and brought out the truth. The two of you got the wrong card when you stayed in the hotel before. The fat man borrowed the car with his card... At this time, he made up his mind to ignore the catastrophe. He stayed at a hotel at night, and he had a dead end, mortgaged a brand-name watch and asked for a room, and let the fat man solve it by himself. The fat man had no famous watch, so he could only Back in the broken car, the hero moved compassionately, but completely reconciled. The two drank and ate snacks, slept and continued on the road tomorrow. Here is a detail of the fat man’s monologue in the car, which is actually prepared by the screenwriter for the audience, because the male protagonist is impossible to hear, but for the emotional change of the audience, so that the male protagonist’s behavior is not obtrusive to the audience. Just arranged this paragraph. To experience this technique, I arranged the plot for this story so that the audience does not feel that a certain turning point in the plot is abrupt, but in order to accommodate the audience, the turning point is destined to be abrupt. Interesting. I think the strongest part of the reconciliation is here. I figured everything out and went back to invite the fat man home for Thanksgiving, but it was logical. The dangerous car was stopped and I had to sit in the freezer of the milk truck and go home. A small fight is a soothing massage after orgasm. But in the last scene, the eye sockets of the people who watched it were hot, which was a success.

Planes, Trains & Automobiles quotes

  • Del: I've never seen a guy get picked up by his testicles before. Lucky for you that cop passed by when he did, or you'd be lifting your snutz to tie your shoes.

  • Del: [talking to Neal on the plane] I always order a special meal. On this airline, I go with the seafood salad. On American, I'll have their kosher plate: a little slice of salami, some roast beef, some turkey, dark rye bread, very nice. Now, if I'm flying United, I'll say I'm a youngster and they'll give me the kiddie plate. That's a hot dog, bag of potato chips, a gherkin, and a nice little bag of Oreo cookie, mmm!
