but in my heart, there is a timed alarm clock to remind you of how lonely you are."
One afternoon in Yangchun, I watched a film for a lonely person alone. The movie I watched-"Lost in Tokyo". The life of the people in the film is as described in the lyrics above. Facing the hustle and bustle of various life content, they are out of place. Although they seem to be very engaged and enjoying themselves, they always remind "You are a spectator."者", so they are lonely, lonely. I believe that many people have felt this way, not because of frustration, suffering or whatever, but because you have been in a certain life state for too long, and you are just a more introverted self-focused People who feel, therefore, it is inevitable to have such feelings. In fact, loneliness and loneliness are not sad and terrible things. When facing their own hearts, everyone will ask themselves the purpose of life, the meaning of hard work, what is their own value, and what is the true meaning of love. Not every time there will be an ideal explanation, so you will doubt yourself, feel lost about things around you, feel lonely, no one understands, feel lonely, no one talks or even doesn't want to talk. It can be said that "people have sorrows and joys, and the moon is cloudy and clear." This is a normal thing, not depression but a little melancholy. It can be said that loneliness and loneliness is a state of life of modern people, but some people are more obvious. Bob Harris and Charlotte are such people. Let us first enter the world of these two people.
Under the lonely night sky of Tokyo, two sleepless Americans met in a bar. Perhaps it was the unconscious loneliness in the eyes that caused the strange men and women to come together quietly. They were hopeful in despair, secretly looking forward to an adventure to change everything... Bob Harris, gradually passing away The Hollywood movie star, sadly and feebly, watched Fenghua pass away a little bit. Love retreats sadly from marriage, and all the passion for survival disappears. Life no longer had any meaning to him, as if there was only a numb body walking blankly. Harris came to Tokyo to shoot a whiskey commercial. He had no interest in this job. Returning to the hotel, just sitting alone, he is not tired, but completely tired-not only for the current life, but for life itself. Charlotte, a young and beautiful college graduate, is just in his youth. She married a photographer and accompanied her husband to Tokyo, only to find that her husband was completely immersed in work and almost ignored her existence. Charlotte had to wander the city boredly, wandering aimlessly in the streets. She suddenly felt how annoyed she was about this state and how ignorant she was about her husband. A pair of equally lonely and depressed men and women sneaked into the city together, and finally found their faith in the hidden possibilities of life...
Lonely and lonely people are sometimes very noble, they are used to sitting on the sidelines, sarcastically watching the people around them seriously every day They are boring, just like Charlotte watching those Japanese housewives concentrating on arranging flowers, and Harris watching women working hard to lose weight by the swimming pool. They like to do something casually by themselves, never participate, and think that boring people will do Things dominated by others never get tired of it.
Lonely and lonely people are sometimes very inferior, because they think that watching other people's boring life is more boring in itself. On the contrary, those who are serious and boring live very fulfillingly every day and spend every day as their own according to others' orders. It's really hard to judge which kind of life is better.
People who are lonely and lonely are more sensitive. Things that happen around them can easily remind them of themselves. The more lively and noisy the more they reflect their loneliness. They shed tears when looking at the colorful streets outside the car window; when they are together with others. They are more accustomed to sitting outside when they are crazy karaoke late at night; but when they are lying on the bed alone, they have difficulty falling asleep. As said before, their loneliness is not tired of their current life, but of life itself.
But people who are lonely and lonely will not change, just like Harris finally left Tokyo and did not stay, and did not even exchange contact information with Charlotte, because loneliness is the identity card of the lonely, and loneliness is the motto of the lonely. This loneliness itself is their life, they are not feeling loneliness, but creating loneliness.
In fact, the heroes and heroines in the film are in a similar life dilemma. Whether it is a mid-life crisis or a youthful confusion, it is also a question of the value of human beings. This dilemma is further intensified by being in a foreign country. The lonely young woman and the down-and-out middle-aged man are the men and women pairing that is the easiest to spark a spark. In their hearts there are the same unsatisfied desires and the sadness of loneliness and loss. Therefore, the heroes and heroines would have insomnia that night, chatting together in the bar until the early hours of the morning-they saw themselves in each other, and we watched the movie also saw ourselves in them.
In my opinion, the love between Harris and Charlotte has less elements of male and female affection and more elements of friendship. They are more eager to understand and release, especially in a foreign country. As for sex, sex has become Secondly, this is rarely seen in American films. Although the film has always whipped the audience's appetite for the relationship between the two, and even developed this ambiguous relationship to the bed, they did not have a relationship. We can also imagine what would happen if the two had a relationship? Obviously, it won’t be any better, loneliness will not be eliminated, loneliness will not be reduced, because two lonely people need comfort and talk. They are completely spiritual and have nothing to do with the body, but physical contact will increase. The feeling of loneliness and loneliness, because each other knows that this life is short and obscure, and the happiness of derailment cannot dilute the tastelessness of reality, so it is a cold beauty to maintain restraint and distance, so the overall tone of the film will linger. With a faint sorrow, we can see their hearts eager to collide in loneliness, and we can see our own shadow, so we indulge along with it.
At the end of the film, after a deep hug and the only kiss, Harris left with a gentlemanly smile. Charlotte resisted the tears and turned around firmly, smiling and turning around as if to tell us that lonely people don’t People who are lonely are not necessarily not strong. Lost is because they are tired of the influx and anesthesia of material desire. Life continues, the city is still noisy, and the lost people are still looking for it.
