Phnom Penh on every dark cloud

Time, love and death are the three essential issues that people face. At the beginning of the film, Will Smith preached chicken soup in the workplace, but the energy of losing his daughter three years later made him full of doubts and anger about these three concepts.

Time is not enough and cannot be replaced.

Love abandoned him.

Death... What he wrote in the letter, and his three friends helped him and even "help others to help themselves" to heal the hurdles in his heart that he couldn't get past.

Time is limited, don't waste it,

Death is terrible, but it should be faced and said goodbye.

Love is always there.

Compared with "The Shabby Room", this movie is more acceptable to those of us who do not have religious beliefs.

God is divided into three people in the shabby house, and there are three important problems to face in life here. It also corresponds to the Tao Te Ching, "Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things."

Collateral's original meaning is subsidiary, and the meaning shown in the movie is mentioned by the host of the psychotherapy group. Don't forget the "beauty of pain", the translation of the movie lines is written like this. It is easier to understand than the four words of subsidiary beauty, this subsidiary beauty is too far-fetched. It's literally Google Translate. I think this attached is like a golden edge on a dark cloud. Every dark cloud has a golden edge. Only by seeing this hope can we keep walking and live.

    Although such a good lineup was wasted, Kate Norton and their characters are a bit redundant, the whole concept is quite good, especially the connection of the stage play, which is quite favorable. But the appearance of Helen Mirren in the hospital is too nonsense. Western art is really fantastic.

    It's boring and unconvincing chicken soup, and the acting of the whole movie is also very casual, especially Will Smith, who really can't feel Shi Huang's acting skills.

Collateral Beauty quotes

  • Amy: [as the personification of Love] I know you don't believe me, but you have to trust me.

    Howard: Trust you? Trust you?

    Amy: Yes!

    Howard: I *did* trust you! And you betrayed me! I saw you every day in her eyes, and I heard you in her voice when she laughed, and I felt you inside of me when she called me "Daddy." And you betrayed me! You broke my heart.

    Amy: No. I'm in all of it. I'm the darkness and the light, I'm the sunshine and the storm. Yes, you're right, I was there in her laugh, but I'm also here now in your pain. I'm the reason for everything. I am the only "why." Don't try and live without me, Howard. Please don't.
