"The Weather Man"

forgot where to look, but he knew about this film for a long time. I saw it in a disc booth a few days ago and bought it. When I first knew this movie, I probably didn’t like this type of movie very much. I was in college at that time. I liked love, funny, hot, action, big production, and visual impact. It attracts all kinds of annoying and trivial movies, even if you try hard to watch it, you will only watch it.

And now, after working for more than a year, I will soon come to my Benming year, and I can already understand many things that happened in David's life in the play. Just as I feel more and more strongly or face up to the fact that I have entered adult society, And my parents are getting old day by day. I used to think that distant problems are coming one after another, so I can understand it, and I have a heart.

"It's been months since I've been on this show and
people haven't thrown anything at me anymore...
probably because I'm running around with a bow and arrow."

David's life is unsatisfactory for most of the film, often People threw fast food, and at the end he went to do a show on national television in New York, was still a weather forecaster, and he practiced archery a lot, and his skills were good. Although his father passed away and his wife married someone else, his work life was much brighter, and no one ever threw fast food at him again. He said that because he ran around with a bow and arrow, everyone knew: like a rock

is indeed very good A bland movie is not as sensational as "Seven Pounds", but it can give people strong power.

As David said, I also imagined a long time ago what my life would be like, what I would be like, but now I am very different from that, as David said, time passes, those qualities I expect I didn't get a single one. David finally became the weather man, and I, at this time, still have some time and possibility, what am I going to become?

After writing the article, I suddenly wanted to ask if the film described the so-called mid-life crisis, and I only had such a relationship in the second birth year of my life. Does it mean that I have lost my passion and am no longer young?
