happiness is gone

I watched this movie when it first came out. I like the soundtrack of this movie very much. The laughter in the children's paradise and the light movie music made people cry. When I watched this movie, a friend died. When thinking about life often, I remember a saying that death is not the opposite of life, but is eternal as a part of life. Thinking about it now, still sad. This is the story of a man who forbears and bears the sadness of his wife's death while facing the children with a smile and optimism. John Cusack interprets the helplessness and struggle in this man's heart.

John Phillips: It's important that people have their own views based on an understanding of facts. But, it's also important not to trust the facts, because most of them are lies.
Heidi Phillips: I don't get it.
John Phillips: It basically comes down to a gut thing. You just have to be open to allowing for a truth which differs from your own opinions. Or else you'll never actually see the truth at all.

Grace Phillips: [leaving a message] Hi everyone, it's mom! I just wanted to call and tell you how much I'm thinking of you. Stan, I guess you're at work now.
