There are many movies similar to "About Schmidt", the most famous Japanese "Tokyo Story", Germany's "Sakura Blossom", America's "Journey to Heaven", "Broken Flower", etc., I call it the review of life trip. Maybe people will reminisce about the lost time when they are old, and try to keep themselves a little bit less regretful in life, but often things go against their wishes. With the deepening of the truth, you will feel that there are too many regrets in life that you can’t make up for in your whole life, but you have a bigger heart. disappointment.
Mr. Schmidt is an old-school successful man. He retired at the age of 66. His wife suddenly passed away. He drove the luxury car that his wife insisted on buying to attend his daughter's wedding. We watched his actions and thoughts together along the way.
Some people say that in modern society, there are too many private things. What is the most important thing you need to destroy before you die? In other words, if everyone is gone, there is nothing to worry about. Schmidt's wife left her husband with a secret that made him choke his throat like a fishbone. In the end, Schmidt let go. There are too many temptations in life, and it is inevitable that there will be emotional transfer.
What made Schmidt worry the most was the daughter's marriage. He felt that his son-in-law was unfeasible, and he feared that his daughter would not trust him. This is the most worrying thing for parents, but he still said blessings against his will at the wedding scene. Yes, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren. In the very independent United States, parents are still worrying about their children. It can be seen that this is the most human beings. Sincere emotion, this is also the biggest characteristic that distinguishes humans from animals.
Watching these kinds of movies is not hurried or slow. We look at other people's lives in the movies and contrast our own lives. Whether it is brilliant or lonely, this is our own life.

    After all, life still treats Schmidt kindly, and finally gave him hope that although people like him who had dreamed of making contributions but ended up just ordinary lives will eventually die, and everyone who knows him will die. In the end, he seems to have never It has never existed, but his RV can really make people laugh happily in heaven!
