A Serious Man

In fact, it is saying that this person is too serious in his conduct, and everyone else is messing around. He is right, but instead he looks like a different kind of person. If there is no inexplicable dialogue between the Polish couple at the beginning, I would have read it as a simple story and realized the complexity of being a human being. But because I didn't understand the opening paragraph, I googled it on the Internet, and it turned out to be the Coen brothers. Use this question to develop their views on Judaism. So I took a serious look at quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's theory, and "The Light". Maybe the director expressed it very well, and Jewish audiences saw it very critically. We foreigners can only watch it lively and be popularized. In fact, sometimes Chinese people don't need to be too arrogant. Fading or missing beliefs is a problem of globalization.

Larry Gopnik: I'm just-I'm not ungrateful, I'm, I just don't know a lot about wine and, given our respective, you know...
[Sy abruptly hugs him]
Sy Ableman: S'okay. S'okay. We're gonna be fine.

Larry Gopnik: Submit. What. What do you...

Arlen Finkle: Uh-huh.
Larry Gopnik: Those anonymous...
Arlen Finkle: Yes, I know. Yes.
