The moaning of the baby boomer generation

"Generation: A specific group of people with the same age of birth and growth background (including behavioral patterns), whose growth background has a great relationship with the country's society, education, politics, economy, and values ​​at that time." - wikipedia

The United States is not as vicissitudes and vicissitudes as the motherland, so a generation of people born about 20 years apart can have a lot in common

The post-80s and post-90s in the motherland correspond to the Milennials in the United States

It's as difficult as watching a boyhood, so it's a bit of a torment. The silent generation that grew up during the Great Depression and the baby boomers after World War II have nothing to do with me. Although I'm not representative, it may be because I like Annette Bening too much. The post-80s generation in the motherland is closer to the American Silent Generation in terms of values.

20th Century Women quotes

  • Jamie: I thought that was just the beginning of a new relationship with her, where she'd really tell me stuff. But maybe it was never really like that again. Maybe that was it.

    Dorothea: In March of 1999, I'll start to feel tired and confused. When I finally go to the doctor, he will say that the cancer in my lungs had already travelled to my breast and brain. I'll try to teach Jamie what to do with my stocks, but my instructions will be impossible to understand.

    Julie: Abbie will take me to Planned Parenthood. And I will go on the pill. I will go to NYU and lose touch with Jamie and Dorothea, and I will stop talking to my mom, I will fall in love with Nicholas, we will move to Paris, and choose not to have children.

    Abbie: I will stay in Santa Barbara. In just two years, I'll marry Dave. A month after I get married Carlotta will die. A week later, Max will die too. I will work out of my garage and show in local galleries. Against my doctor's advice, I will get pregnant, and by the time I'm thirty I'll have two boys.

    William: I'll live with Dorothea for another year. Then I'll open a pottery store in Sedona Arizona. I will marry Laurie, a singer-songwriter. We'll get divorced in a year. Then I'll meet Sandy, we will marry, and I will continue to do my pottery.

    Jamie: My mom will meet Jim in 1983, they'll be a couple until she dies. On her birthday each year, he will buy her a trip on a biplane. Years after she's gone I'll finally get married and have a son. I'll try to explain to him what his grandmother was like - but it will be impossible.

  • Jamie: [to his mom] You know, when the firemen come... people don't usually invite them for dinner.
