Nowadays, people are becoming more and more indifferent and isolated in the reinforced concrete of the city. The old man feels that no one understands his feelings, but in fact, he has not given too much affection to his wife and daughter in the more than 40 years of marriage. People are selfish and fragile. , on the one hand, expecting others to pay, on the other hand, he is stingy with emotional output. In such layers of packages, people are getting more and more lonely and lonely. The letter written by the old man to the adopted child is actually a real confession, because he does not hope for a reply, so he writes with sincerity (with some little vanity that does not conform to reality), and because of this , when the child responds to him with a simple crayon drawing, he can feel inner satisfaction, this kind of emotional communication that comes and goes, perhaps the first time he has experienced in these years. The movie ended abruptly, a little abruptly and a little dazed, leaving it to the audience to experience it for themselves.
This is not a typical Jack Nicholson. On the screen, the old guy is always arrogant, arrogant, wicked, with raised eyebrows and upward glances, and a little grin, and the evil spirit will burst out~ Even if it is The movies that appear in light comedies are also weird old men who don't change their hearts and don't make people worry (see [Love is Compromise], [Perfect], [Battery List], etc.~). This time, Mr. Warren Schmidt will also act a little weird and funny, but more of the loss on his face and the anguish hidden behind the forced smile.
PS Old Nicholson's words are very beautiful, smooth handwriting, much stronger than the common foreigners spelled out with capital letters~~~ (I watched it on TV, but unfortunately there is no screenshot..)
