YSS STRONGLY RECOMMEND

just drank two glasses of red wine, a little high. Recently, I have been bothered by things, and my husband is not around to listen to my nagging. I find that I will never find anyone who will listen to my complaints seriously, let alone help me solve my problems. I was lonely and grumbling like Woody Allen, the gray-haired old Jewish man, muttering, dissatisfied, and full of thoughts. Ask yourself, maybe that's the reason why I like Woody.

During the most difficult, darkest period of my life, I lived off the box of Woody Allen Complete Works that I bought with my ex-boyfriend. When I really can't stand the unbearable lightness of life, I will watch a movie in my dog's kennel, and in his constant nagging like a Tang monk, I will get the only one who is not as good as death. A little joy and distraction. Seeing his story, the characters in his stories, the ins and outs of his characters, the good and the bad, I can finally draw some comfort from the pain of the fictional characters. At the end of the day, Woody can't forget his greatest characteristics and strengths--the key to him that no one can replace--he is playing the role of God, who takes the false, self-deceiving, contradictory, unpredictable , The bitter and joyful life is put on the screen for us to see himself, and then he puts on his usual mocking, joking, dismissive gesture and tone to ridicule everyone bitterly, no one can succeed, including in front of the screen you and me. We know that this kind of sorrowful joy comes when we can finally get away from our own worthless life and stand aside to watch other people's fun - don't others see our fun in the same way! ? No matter how big it is: in ourselves, it's a shattering thing—breakups, marriages, divorces, cheating, extramarital affairs, relationships between young and old, unemployment, suicide, murder... In the old Jewish grandfather's camera, it's always It's accompanied by half-jolly, half-sarcastic guitar or jazz that seems insignificant and at the same time stupid. We find all the weird things that can happen to us both amusing and annoyed, but we, like the characters on the show, can't do anything about it! Because life is so ridiculous and inexplicable!

There is almost always a woman who is hysterical and mentally vulnerable in old man movies. It was before, and it is now. He himself often played the hysterical and fragile man. This film made me see the super cute Woody ramble and nervous, malicious narration and involuntary characters, experiencing all kinds of emotional encounters in the most ordinary oil, salt sauce and vinegar, hi, Anger, sadness, embarrassment, regret, disappointment... Everyone in the story is ourselves, and every day we are playing out a story as wonderful as he told. He doesn't want to talk about any specific big truths. In fact, after so many years and so many films, the old man is always talking about the same simple and profound one with various elements of poetry, language, characters, music, etc. Thing: Life is impermanent.

The most beautiful thing about this film is not that he made any creative breakthroughs, but that he made the ending of the story more casual and open, just like life. He does not deliberately arrange a fixed ending for each clue in order to complete the narrative as he used to. This time, he put helplessness in front of everyone, as if to say, haha, screw you guys! This is life! That's right, this is life, it's endless, and it will be reborn even after death! According to the super victim, the most classic character in the photo, "Mom", people have a past life, a rebirth, and a determined future, whether it is a so-called psychological suggestion or some mystery in the universe that we have not yet discovered. Realm, the fact is, we have to live! damn it! Because we have no choice but to tell ourselves that I was Joan of Arc in my last life! Haha, live well, what is more important?
