Being There

When watching movies, I like to gain some new knowledge and new ideas. Please point out the following puzzles.

I don't know much about politics, I can only watch the movie from the perspective of human nature.
The first half is the playful orchestral music that often appears in American movies. Shansi was forced to run away, and the shot on the uphill road was beautiful, with endless traffic on both sides. Luxurious private hospital in the home of influential bigwigs.
I am very happy to see a movie with this theme. Technology has brought great changes to people's lives, giving people more choices of interest, but has it also brought alienation to people? The film discusses this. A lifelong companion of the film, who only repeats the language and behavior on TV, seems to be an alienated person with only a young child's IQ, but is easily admired by the audience from the common people to the big names and the president. , which is ridiculous.
This person has no normal perception of the existence and death of human beings. Whether it is the death of the old man or Ben's funeral, he has shown a counterintuitive reaction.
Television has created a large number of couch potatoes, TV show addicts since its invention. Although TV viewers received a lot of information in a clear way, they lacked active thinking. "I like to watch", seeing Mr. Gardener who likes to mechanically press the remote control of the TV, makes people feel a sense of horror.
Please be more active and choose less passive reception. The closed operation of TV programs still has many disadvantages.

    Slow-paced, somber comedy

    Very interesting story, very well performed. A gardener who has never experienced society, a middle-aged man who is naive and stupid and only loves watching TV, has become a man in the United States by accident. In one situation, the boss's friend, his simplest words are interpreted by everyone, his identity is investigated by everyone, and his winter to spring is considered a political philosophy. Fun!

Being There quotes

  • President "Bobby": Mr. Gardner, do you agree with Ben, or do you think that we can stimulate growth through temporary incentives?

    [Long pause]

    Chance the Gardener: As long as the roots are not severed, all is well. And all will be well in the garden.

    President "Bobby": In the garden.

    Chance the Gardener: Yes. In the garden, growth has it seasons. First comes spring and summer, but then we have fall and winter. And then we get spring and summer again.

    President "Bobby": Spring and summer.

    Chance the Gardener: Yes.

    President "Bobby": Then fall and winter.

    Chance the Gardener: Yes.

    Benjamin Rand: I think what our insightful young friend is saying is that we welcome the inevitable seasons of nature, but we're upset by the seasons of our economy.

    Chance the Gardener: Yes! There will be growth in the spring!

    Benjamin Rand: Hmm!

    Chance the Gardener: Hmm!

    President "Bobby": Hm. Well, Mr. Gardner, I must admit that is one of the most refreshing and optimistic statements I've heard in a very, very long time.

    [Benjamin Rand applauds]

    President "Bobby": I admire your good, solid sense. That's precisely what we lack on Capitol Hill.

  • Ron Steigler: Mr. Gardner, uh, my editors and I have been wondering if you would consider writing a book for us, something about your um, political philosophy, what do you say?

    Chance the Gardener: I can't write.

    Ron Steigler: Heh, heh, of course not, who can nowadays? Listen, I have trouble writing a postcard to my children. Look uhh, we can give you a six figure advance, I'll provide you with the very best ghost-writer, proof-readers...

    Chance the Gardener: I can't read.

    Ron Steigler: Of course you can't! No one has the time! We, we glance at things, we watch television...

    Chance the Gardener: I like to watch TV.

    Ron Steigler: Oh, oh, oh sure you do. No one reads!
