there is no rule about happy ending

After watching the first two movies that were deleted after watching, I think "The Beaver" is probably also a movie that was deleted after watching it. It's not even like the first two movies before deciding to delete it after watching it. I thought about deleting "The Beaver" as soon as I watched it. But I didn't expect that it would end up being one of the ones who haven't been able to enter my save list for a long time.
It's still a very strange film, and it's about the spirit of people. The male protagonist suffers from depression and is unwilling to talk to anyone, causing his career to fail and his wife to be separated. Later, it was necessary to speak through the sea puppet on his hand, but he did not expect that it was through the beaver that the male protagonist could communicate with his family normally. business peak. When the plot turned from sadness to happiness because of the wired way of talking through the beaver on the male main costume, I thought it was a typical American comedy ending, but the plot did not stop here where everything seems to be good . The male protagonist gradually exists as a beaver in spirit, instead of himself with his family and colleagues. I found that when my wife needed me instead of the beaver, she collapsed again, directly and completely denied the past, the family, and herself, and finally turned into a battle between herself and the beaver that she fantasized about. Only after being cut off did it get real pacification. It really made my mood go wild. What impressed me a lot was the graduation speech written by the eldest son of the male protagonist at her graduation ceremony later: "We have been instilled by our parents, teachers, and people around us that "everything can be fine", In fact, not everything will get better, even most of it will not get better. We need to admit that many times it is not so ok, all you can do is to know that at least you are not alone." There's never been a rule "everything can be fine", it's just our good opinion. Since it is not inevitable that it will be ok, why should we panic when we find it is broken? I think of Monica's very simple line in my friends, but I like it very much: "Welcome to the real world! It sucks. You're gonna love it!" Our reason for avoiding it, what it needs from us, should be a complete hug. Perhaps it is precisely because of the completeness that we realize its fineness. And in the end, we love the whole process, not just the part that many of us feel good about.

    An allegorical story directed and starred by Jodie Foster. Through the beaver puppet, tell us: we are living in a big lie, everyone tells us: "Everything is going to be OK." But what if not? Some things come out of nowhere, and sometimes pain is like DNA, and tragedy is occasionally fatal. The antidote is not alone. U do not have to be alone.

    Both of them are old, this is the first sigh; Mr. Beaver finally turned into a nightmare, making people understand that escape is not the root of the problem, and people can't disappear out of thin air, but they need blood lessons. There is one line for the father, one for the wife, and one for the eldest son, but the eldest son's line does not have much interaction with his father. Even if it is vicious, the story with the young and beautiful girl has become the focus of the adolescent boy, and it is suspected of occupying the theme. .

The Beaver quotes

  • Porter Black: Tagging? Like... like graffiti tagging?

    Norah: More like art. It was just... illegal.

  • [first lines]

    Walter Black: This is a picture of Walter Black, a hopelessly depressed individual. Somewhere inside him is a man who fell in love. Who started a family. Who ran a successful company. That man has gone missing. No matter what he's tried, and he's tried everything, Walter can't seem to bring him back. It's as if he's died, but hasn't had the good sense to take his body with him. So mostly what he does is sleep.
