What joy is life, what sorrow is death

In the summer drama shortage period, I watched the five seasons of "Six Feet Under" SIX FEET UNDER intermittently.

Peter Krause and Michael C. Hall, who play the FISHER brothers, are familiar faces. Especially Michael of DEXTER in "Blood Judgment", it is interesting that his character always deals with the dead, the mortician in "Six Feet Under", the forensic doctor and serial killer in DEXTER.

HBO is HBO, "Six Feet Under" is really a strange show, all the characters in it are more or less annoying, some are even quite annoying, but there is a magnet-like attraction that makes people want to stop Keep watching.

Brother NATE, he had no choice but to do the family funeral business that he wanted to escape, and he had no choice but to be the husband of his child's mother. The brain aneurysm he thought he had overcome, but three years after the successful operation, he took his life without warning. Life, NATE's life, is full of helplessness;

younger brother DAVID, too self-controlled homosexual, weak in personality, but kind-hearted, also unlucky, and black boyfriends on and off, rarely indulge with Las Vegas male prostitutes She was caught by the police as soon as she had a good intention to let a stranger take a taxi, but she almost lost her life when she encountered the devil;

little girl Claire, an angry youth who thinks she is an artist, everything in the world is out of her eyes, drug addiction, promiscuity, Engaged in art, tried everything, even put on professional clothes and became the company white-collar worker she hated the most;

mother Ruth, the most annoying character in the whole play, the old man is full of wrinkles, and he is always a girl She is like, chattering all day, annoying to death, neurotic control freak, her love history is richer than her three children;

Brenda, NATE's lover, second wife, her whole family is crazy . She has an IQ as high as 185, but what she is best at is making a mess of the lives of herself and the people she loves. This is the real tendency to self-destruct and destroy others. She can't restrain herself from betraying her lover and messing with others. The desire to do it seems to be controlled by an invisible black hand. Once it gets on the right track, the black hand will reach out and disrupt everything;

Billy, Brenda's younger brother, fell in love with his own sister, and would fall into a crazy psychosis without taking medicine;

Lisa, with a mediocre appearance and a dull temperament, became NATE's first wife due to an unexpected pregnancy, but she is not here. The two people who loved each other mysteriously disappeared and died when they were preparing to start a new life;

...

The only thing I really liked, of course, was the lovely Maya, the blond, always with a lovely smile and a young voice. The poor child lost his mother when he was one year old, and lost his father when he was two and a half years old...

Life is joyful, death is hard, and the open ending makes people feel extremely desolate.

Six Feet Under quotes

  • Maggie Sibley: I know that if you think life's a vending machine where you put in virtue and take out happiness then you're going to be disappointed.

  • Officer Keith Charles: [talking to David about marriage] You're in my will, I'm in yours. We basically are married, even if the law refuses to recognize it. But then again, I refuse to recognize most of the Bush Administration. I guess it all evens out.
