cool. From the beginning to the end, it is the perspective of the male protagonist, to see how he re-experiences the world. In fact, the death of his wife is a blasting point. If there is no death of his wife, the life of the male protagonist can still be lived in numbness. It's like poking a hole in the center of a complete painting, you can only find a way to change it or destroy it, it will never return to its original shape. The world established by various visions and standards is so attractive that it runs very fast and keeps justifying itself. As long as you relax a little, you may completely lose your true feelings and pursue a reasonable, or should. . When his wife died, he should be sad, but he was not sad, so he began to deconstruct himself like a machine, and observe his contact with the world completely and truly. The contact with the heroine gave him a world that was completely accepted. In the daze, this was an extremely precious foothold and gave him a place to start again. Although people are inherently lonely, they essentially need another gaze to verify their existence.

The rhythm of this film is great, and in the process of getting to know the hero and heroine, the concerns of a single mother have created a little suspense, which is like a fairy tale, naive but real. The male protagonist's life and the outside world are like two water stains that are close to each other, infiltrating each other at the edge, changing each other but not turning into a puddle in the end. It creates the life of two classes, and talks about each other's hypocrisy and embarrassment. The male protagonist is in the upper class, and his identity is in a position where he can freely roam, so he can connect the two classes. Maybe the film beautifies the life of the relatively lower class, but this is not the theme of the film, because the theme is always the growth of the male protagonist, the life he rediscovered, the re-experience of the love between him and his wife, the long time Every moment of truth lurking beneath his suit and smile.

Demolition quotes

  • Davis: [thinking] My parents left for Tampa this afternoon, and I stayed at the airport an extra two hours watching people walk back and forth with their luggage in tow. I find I'm suddenly filled with... wait... Overwhelmed by... a growing sense of curiosity. What are in these bags? I wanna know what these people can't do without for four days in buffalo. I wanna go through every one of them and dump their shit in a huge pile.

    Davis: And the national guard guy? I wanna hold his gun. I wanna protect my country.
