It's about gold, not just money

Some time ago "Drug God" reminded me of Matthew McConaughey's "Dallas Buyers Club", and then watched another Matthew movie "Gold Mine". Contrary to "Dallas", Matthew gained a lot of weight for this movie, further destroying his image and staying "bald". The films and themes I like very much, I want to express the theme is actually very big and there are many clues, but the director and screenwriter control it really well. Matthew said, jokingly, it can be said that it is a huge scam, I lied to everyone, but hey bro, I didn't lie to you, okay 5: 5 points whatever if fakes. But Kenny, played by Matthew, said during an investigation that it's about gold, not money! So is the money what he needs? I guess when he thinks there must be a gold mine, he wants more than just money, as Kenny said when he was robbed of the "gold mine", he wants his name and his father's name to stay in history, yes Yes, compared to making a fortune, gold diggers are like a dream, a big gamble, just believing that the gold is there, and there will always be something to keep moving forward, people don't want to stop, they are full of energy, even if there is doubt in the middle, even if " "The largest gold mine" The gold mine with unprecedented gold content is full of doubts, but no one really went to see it, as the last scam appeared, experts said, we just didn't see it for ourselves. In fact, this movie is really delicate, whether it is intentional or not, because at the beginning of the film, it explains that it was an era when the economy was declining and people lost confidence. , especially Wall Street, which has always been full of big bets and instant riches, would rather believe than be intoxicated rather than wake up. The life of the Nuggets really misses our real-life dreams, those dreams that are close to daydreams. A meaning, a fantasy, it doesn't matter whether it exists or not, as long as people believe it exists, the "female version of Steve Jobs" scam was exposed some time ago. In fact, it also sells concepts, stories or dreams. Sometimes, dreams happen to happen. Once luck came true, we thought we were "experts", that we had discovered "laws", that we could understand the huge universe, and that we could tap more and more gold mines with laws, wisdom, and "professionalism". In fact, there may be more luck, but life is limited. Some dreams can be lived for a lifetime, called "inspirational and successful" life. Just needing a belief that the gold mines are there, Mike gave Kenny a dream. In a huge time and space, a huge "game", success or failure can never be determined. For example, if Kenny took the $300 million that was first acquired at that time, it would really become a "fraud" and could not be washed away. , he didn't take it. At the end of the movie, he got 80 million US dollars and freedom from prison, but he woke up.

Just think of another possibility, if Mike told Kenny early that this was a "game", would Kenny be able to get out of it? Maybe it's a guilty conscience and heavy-handed, and can't escape the FBI's investigation? So very interesting.

At the beginning and the end of the movie, the neighbor's meme, father and son's meme about the sky, and Kenny and his wife's meme all echo back and forth. I guess, the screenwriter should be the kind of professional film theory education? Check it out later [laughs]

Finally, I want to say that in a few barrages, some people say that Matthew's acting is too hard. In fact, I think it's just deliberate. After all, the micro-expression is really stable at the end. ]

It’s been a long time since I wrote such a long film review. To understand everything that seems abstract, a simple obsession may make people happier than looking for the so-called “rules”. Maybe a daydream will come true? [Laughing] To tell you the truth, the things I've watched recently are really in the same line, "Walden" said: Simplify! simplify! simplify! "A Brief History of the Future" has a "meaning" to life, in a wide range of categories.

    "The last card you turn over is the only thing that matters." It wasn't until Kenny Smith opened the letter at the last moment that he realized it, what a big game of chess!
