Everyone is drunk, I wake up alone

After watching the movie "Love in the Arts", this movie tells the story of a 35-year-old literary young man who still can't let go of his college plot, so he can return to school with a chance and talk to a 19-year-old girl a short-lived love. He also slept with his favorite English literature teacher, and saved a little boy who was very similar to him at school. I think a lot of people focus on this story about the 16-year-old love between the uncle and the little loli. Of course, one of the ways I appreciate in the film is to not turn this literary uncle into a dream come true, eager to do everything man who wants. Instead, you can see the calmness between speech and behavior, as if all this experience is not for getting anything, but for growth. Just like the 19-year-old girl finally confessed to the hero, I want to be with you, probably more because I want to find a shortcut to growth from you. So the male protagonist should also be able to realize that all this is just because of his maturity, but he can't just blindly believe in this illusory beauty. Because when the girl wanted to give him her first time, he felt the great responsibility. So he still refused like an adult.
In the process of watching this film, I felt superficial and evasive to say myself more than once. Although I'm only 24 years old and I haven't left the school yet, but my mentality seems to be like a student in it, and I really want to grow up. But don't know what to do. At the same time, I was also faced with finding an internship and facing social problems. But my heart is shouting to me, I don't want to work, I want to stay on campus forever. So when I was little I told myself that I was going to stay in school, so I was going to do a Ph.D., so I could stay in school and teach forever. But I saw the teacher in the movie saying that although you are surrounded by 19-year-old children, you will often make yourself feel as if you are 19 years old too. But when I looked at my wrinkles in the mirror, I realized that I was an adult or even an old man. And the teacher also said that the biggest secret in the world is that no one thinks of himself as an adult. It also reminds me of the 19-year-old heroine who said that every time her parents accused her of something, she fantasized them as if they were drunk. She would feel like saying how can you care about drunk people what they said. So she will feel happy. If you combine this with the old professor's words, people in this world do something bad for you, and you can think of them as drunk.

    2012/09/28 The rhythm is very good, with a touch of warmth and rationality interspersed with humor. The image of the male protagonist man-boy is very good, and the female protagonist’s eyes are bright and hot and beautiful. In fact, this question has always troubled me: if a person likes something that you think is worthless, shallow or stupid, is that person still worthy of liking?

    Why does the girl control the uncle? The answer is here. A middle-aged uncle who doesn't want to grow up, a young girl who just went to school and envy of adulthood, a professor who just retired and doesn't have time for leisure... Intertwined is the whole life. It's beautiful and artistic, age is the truth of love after all, we all need to grow up like a fool, and then return to our own world, don't we?

  • Jesse Fisher: Dear Zibby. Even after all these months, I'm still half expecting a letter from you to be sitting in my mailbox. I'm sure you have little left to say to me at this point, but your letters are very much missed. I know I hurt you, and I'm sorry. Any bone headed moves that may have lead to confusion were not malice. That said, I've been feeling lately the stirrings of something I can only call growth. It's a tribute of sorts to say that someone sixteen years my junior helped me to finally start acting my age. A wise man in a red hat once told me: "Everything is okay." I didn't believe him then, but for some reason I'm starting to.
