A gift for the Decadent Syndrome

When you meet the right person, you must be at the right time; when you meet the right movie, you must be in the right mood. This movie is a winter fur hat and firewood in a cold night for the decadent sufferers.
It's a movie about loneliness, but it makes people feel warm. At first glance, it seems a little incredible, but this is what the director is brilliant at. When one loneliness meets another, they are no longer lonely, which is similar to fighting poison with poison in martial arts novels. On the contrary, if you try to dissolve loneliness with excitement, it will only backfire and make it more lonely.
Based on this principle. When a person is sad, watching comedy films only temporarily numbs oneself, and tragedy can play a role in relieving pain and let people get out of sadness.
There are two kinds of separation between people. Live or die. Charlie lost his wife, three daughters and dog in an accident. From then on, he was devastated, depressed, said goodbye to this society, and became a child wearing the body of an adult. It's sad, but what if it's a separation? I think life and separation may be more painful than death, because after death, you can use depression to numb yourself, hide in your own world, and pretend to forget everything, just like Charlie, stepping on an electric scooter and wearing headphones on the street every day Wandering like a walking dead. However, Shengli not only has to suffer the same pain of parting, but also bears the expectation of reunion. Even if his heart is broken, he still has to maintain a healthy and wonderful life.
Sometimes, I long for Charlie's life. Living alone in a strange city, I don't know anyone, and I don't know anyone. Every day, you can freely step on the electric pulley and drift in the night, collect your favorite records, play electric games, play your favorite music in the music room, and read your favorite books.
