just a pack of aspirin

When I watched this film, it was calm, just like when he died in the end, he just hugged him and looked at the sunshine outside the car window, there were no tears or sensational lines.
It's just a tough ride for two men at the bottom who are forced to live together. There is no romantic romance, only the unpleasant tone of voice makes people feel harsh.
But a few days after watching the movie, Dustin Hoffman's gestures and gestures kept rumbling in his head. This is a veritable slow heat, right? When their humble figures and harsh quarrels kept revolving in their heads, they suddenly felt that the two of them who supported each other under the hardships actually had love. This kind of love doesn't need to be ups and downs, and it doesn't need to be unforgettable. It's too extravagant. For these two men, this relationship doesn't even need the fancy name of "love", it's just a cheap straw, like themselves, no It's worth mentioning what's optional... It's light, very light, very light, humble feelings. When I watched the movie, I didn't touch the part, and when I repeatedly experienced this humbleness and insignificance, I couldn't help crying. Not everyone can die heroically, and not everyone can love heroically.
It's just a pack of aspirin, the first aspirin he thought of after he made money, the aspirin he complained about after a night of high fever.
