As Hemingway said in the preface of "The Sun Also Rises", most people in this world are at a loss. We comfort ourselves only because there may be a God sitting in heaven.
"When happiness comes knocking on the door." I think this translation is probably a humor from the last father and son. Knock, knock. This onomatopoeia is enough for the translator to instantly capture a warm and moving inspiration.
At the end, my eyes were red after all. Although the motivational purpose of the film is so exposed and so abrupt. In the United States in the early 1980s, five years after the Vietnam War ended, the society began to slowly recover from the depression of the war. Black person. The marriage broke down. Not much education. The protagonist with these backgrounds is enough to reflect some of the cruel reality of contemporary American society. Emerson once said that in the United States, both spirit and wealth are never equal. But looking around, everyone is smiling and looks so fucking happy.
There are as many American dreams as there are Americans. Happiness. Jefferson mentioned this term thirteen times in the United States Declaration of Independence. At that moment, the great founding father of the United States believed that this was a dream guided by God, so they took up swords and guns and stopped singing "God Bless the Queen." Two hundred years later, Jefferson became the head on the dollar bills, but happiness was still out of circulation. The government and philanthropists provide people with milk and food, and provide temporary housing, but they still cannot give people an illusion of happiness.
Life is bitter, tears are salty. Selling those white "time machines" is not enough to maintain a good life, but it is enough to attract the attention of hippie girls and psychopaths. Globalization has shrunk people, and movies have enlarged people. Anton Rioni's words uttered the charm of film art. We have lost the focus of attention, but for money and material, we still maintain ample appetite.
I read Kundera’s first book when I was in college-"The Unbearable Lightness of Life", there is a saying: Life often makes us feel hard, and it will make us witness life in various ways countless times. Distortion and deformation under heavy pressure. So we saw that the father who was usually polite and could not tolerate fuck graffiti on the outer wall of the kindergarten was forced by life to be like a mad dog: not paying the taxi fare, and turning his face with a friend for fourteen dollars, it was pretty pretty. Ruthlessly jump in the line and explode. Struggling at the bottom of society for too long, the instinct for survival inadvertently castrated virtue.
I envy other people's life so exquisite, but my own is so violent. Happiness knocked gently on the door, but misfortune and disaster knocked it open roughly. Therefore, we often say that we miss love and happiness, and disasters and misfortunes will entangle you like little hooligans on the side of the road. They usually don't pass by carelessly.
For the weak, being victimized is a habit. In the stable days, we have lost our ability to discern the disasters and crises ahead. We don’t care because we usually don’t feel that we are as unlucky as that father.
Being alive is really hard work, but there is always a reason to stick to it. Last night, I had a long conversation with a female friend. She said that if it wasn't for this or that kind of concern, it would be better to sit among the railroad tracks and die. I actually want to tell her that the more meaningless life is, the more worth living it is. These are the words of Camus, full of our provocations to the sparse fate arranged by God. Nietzsche pretentiously said that God is dead, and I softly said that God just left heaven. He wants to give way to some specific happiness and ideals in our hearts.
Just like Will Smith in the film keeps telling his children and his wife, we will definitely get better, we will definitely get better. When playing basketball, he also said, child, you must protect your dreams. At that moment, I saw that a happy family and children are his true beliefs-there is no red tape in the literary and artistic accent, there is only a father's love and warmth.
For everyone, God is different. God is a girl, God is a gun. Sometimes, they are all burdened with some kind of real meaning of salvation. When everything in life begins to abandon you, when you start to get tired of that GOD always uses things like the gospel and original sin to evade and shirk responsibilities, fortunately, we who are strong will always find a God and sit in heaven.
