People always subconsciously divide their life into several worlds, which circulate together on this earth, not contradicting each other, but rarely intersect. It's like when you come home from get off work on a bicycle against the strong wind and see a fat bald man and a beautiful woman with heavy makeup in the oncoming Cadillac. You live in the same city, but you never set foot in the places they frequent, and the places where you hang out will never be found. See Zainab's expression when Walter says to Zainab, Don't worry. I'll keep my pants on. Pity Walter's rare sense of humor.
Tarek said to Walter, I know you're smart, but when you're playing the drums, be fully committed and don't think about anything. Smart people often struggle to experience certain pleasures because they are too smart. Therefore, they can't devote themselves to one thing. They know that the world will not greet you with a smile because of temporary happiness, and they always maintain a part of their sanity to deal with the harm that may come at any time. We often laugh at women who have zero IQ when they are in love, but in fact, it is a sad thing that the IQ is not zero at any time.
Walter's 20 years of doing nothing is not a conceit, but a sense of powerlessness after a loss. We often complain that we work hard for our parents, wife and children, but Walter's pain is that no one can enjoy his efforts. His wife has been dead for many years and his son is far away in London. When your success doesn't bring happiness to anyone, you don't have much craving for achievement. So he wants to learn the piano, even if he doesn't like it, because the piano makes him feel that he still has some connection with his wife; so he wants to stay in foreigners who don't know the details. How many Americans will know this kind of thing after 9.11 Do; so he'll take a long vacation and do his best for Tarek. It's all just because I want to make my existence meaningful to some people.
The first time Walter met Tarek, he was grabbed by the collar at his home and asked, "What are you doing here?" Walter's attitude even seemed weak. And the outburst in prison after learning that Tarek was deported back home was a different story. On the surface, Walter has always been helping Tarek, but Walter has changed from a walking dead to flesh and blood, all thanks to Tarek. What a blessing it is to have someone who can make you angry for him.
About drums. Percussion instruments are always the easiest to decompress. Intellectuals are always unable to let go of their posture. The so-called origin comes from love, but from etiquette. However, just like people who have never heard of pork sales getting depression, the more polished the surface, the more high-risk groups. This may be the so-called rp conservation theory. In the end, Walter played the drums like nobody else in the subway, and along with the distant sound of the drums, he also took away all the unhappiness brought by life. There are many things we can't change, the only thing we can control is our own state of mind.
