real life

Woody Allen's film has become a compulsory course at the end of the year.

In "Encountering Strangers", we are told the story of a family, father, mother, daughter, son-in-law, everyone has a new story because of encountering a stranger.
One center, five basic points.

The scary part of life is that it's the same, every day it's fresh from the copier.
Fortunately, there are always strangers in life.
However, when strangers become mature people, it is inevitable that they will be disappointed again.
Beautiful and romantic, like soap bubbles, colorful, but always - "bang" burst.

Suddenly I remembered having dinner with my sister born in the 70s that day.
She said that after going through so much, she finally understands that it is the same with everyone.

This is really cruel.
But isn't that the reality?
Woody Allen, this little old man, no longer creates fairy tales for us.
A father who wants to be young and energetic has a flash marriage with a prostitute who is younger than his daughter. It was too late to find his own wife.
The nervous mother survived her husband's departure by relying on the words of a liar as her spiritual support. Met a single old man, but he wants to be jealous with his dead wife.
The poor daughter was fed up with her incompetent husband, went out to make a living and met a boss who was also unhappy in her marriage. She thought the boss was interested in her, but in the end she was unrequited.
The incompetent son-in-law relied on the love of the young red-clothed woman who cheated with his eloquent words, and stole his friend's manuscript, thinking that he could become famous, but unexpectedly learned that his friend was not dead.

You see, no one's life is easy.
What to do then?
Woody Allen told us his advice that living in fantasy is not necessarily a bad thing.
It's not your fault for thinking of life as a colorful soap bubble, and when the bubble bursts, don't be surprised, don't panic.
This is what life is really like.

    After watching the two bad films, I feel very comfortable watching the master's works, but that's all. After contributing a few classics to his recovery state, Allen returned to his traditional route. There were no surprises but not bad, and it was fair to see, not to mention Watts and Indian beauties.

    Humorous Woody Allen-style love group drama sketches. Is reality really a love killer, and is only imagination capable of nurturing love even though it may be instantaneous or even non-existent?
