Isn't this the barrier of each of us?

Josiane 2022-03-25 09:01:10

I really don't understand the world of adults. Maybe there are no adults in this world, we are all children, or there is no difference between adults and children.
I thought that if the barriers were repaired, the people I loved could be enclosed, but I didn't expect that sometimes people couldn't be enclosed. Just like the coming of death, it cannot be stopped. A husband who loves his family, his children, and his wife, he understands his responsibilities and his own life, but he still can't refuse others, even if he builds up barriers. And the barriers that were originally meant to encircle the lover have also become the estrangement between them that can never be eliminated.
There are also conflicts between two generations, the most basic survival problems, and the dreams of young people... Isn't this the problem we face? Every girl will be like their mother, just like every boy will eventually live like their father...
Finally, we understand from the film that to love someone is to accept all his good and bad, Without preconditions! Because, to live, and to be happy! Perhaps, we do not need to accept, because we still have ourselves!

    It's too uncomfortable to make a stage play into a movie and not change it? The male protagonist can't understand

    It's really ugly. The first half of the talk is a lot of nonsense. At the end, a man like the male lead was inexplicably whitewashed and praised by everyone. I really don't understand. All in all, it's a film that's all about acting.

Fences quotes

  • [first lines]

    Bono: [riding their garbage truck job] Troy, you oughta stop that lyin'.

    Troy: I ain't lyin'. The nigger had a watermelon this big. Talkin' about "What watermelon, Mr. Rand?" I liked to fell out... "What watermelon, Mr. Rand?" And it's sittin' there bigger than life.

    Bono: What Mr. Rand said?

    Troy: He said nuthin'. He figured the nigger too dumb to know he carryin' a watermelon, he wouldn't get no sense out of 'im. Trying to hide that great big watermelon under his coat. Afraid to let the white man see him carry it on.

  • Troy: [building a fence in their yard] What does she want to keep out? She doesn't have anything that others want.

    Bono: Some build fences to keep people out. Others, to keep us in it. Rose wants to keep everyone together. She loves you.
