A job that is gracious but boring, and is often laughed at; tidying up the messy family life, hoping that the divorced wife will get back with him as soon as possible; and working hard to save a life that is gradually lost. This is the protagonist in the film All of life. The title of the film is "Mr. Weather", but this is not a film about the profession of weather forecasting, but a film about the life of an ordinary American middle class.

The middle class is mostly middle-aged. In the United States, the young and successful elites, such as the Bill Gaizi, are few and far between. To get rich and decent life. The "discussing life" in Shanghai dialect is quite appropriate and vivid to describe such a situation. Middle-aged, a life stage with too many things on his back. There are old and young living and family backgrounds, so that those middle-aged people have more worries and worries, so they have to give up many dreams and pursuits that they once had but have not yet realized. I remember that before graduating, my international economic law teacher was discussing the writing of graduation thesis for a group of young people who were still reckless facing the unknown society, and talked about career pursuits. When he looked at us students who were coveted and eager to move in the field of international economic law, he was full of envy in his tone and vision. But when it comes to their own future, they are more regretful. Yes, although I still have opportunities and still have illusions about the future, when I think about my responsibilities to my family and the half-old children, all my professional and professional visions are only Can finally drift away like a dream. This is the sadness of middle-aged people. Standing in the scorching heat at the end of summer, my heart is so hot and unbearable, but I already seem to see the approach of autumn, life is about to come to an end, the last time, the last opportunity, is the hardest time.

Yes, this is the shit life (the shit life!). In life, in order to get some, you have to give some. When he heard this passage from his father, perhaps David truly understood and saw the real life of his father who once seemed to him to be perfect and enviable, and only then did he truly understand and learn. How to ask for your own life. Did the wife leave and marry someone else? Did the children’s problems make myself a headache? That damn boring weather forecast job still caused me to be ridiculed by passers-by, teased, and even bombarded by fast food on the street? It doesn't matter anymore, because this is part of my damn life. We have no way to escape, no way to erase these painful memories and experiences, because life is not always going forward as we imagined, even after we got a new and more decent job with an annual salary of millions of dollars. after.

I believe that not only the words of my father, but also the death of his father, David finally chose the new job in New York. At that moment, the decline and death of his father's life, until the final death, made him truly understand that not only is life a puddle of shit, but even man himself finally becomes a dung-like fertilizer and enters the ecosystem. It’s just in the circular chain. Therefore, in life, no matter how many disasters, no matter how sorrowful, and no matter how unsatisfactory, you can only laugh at the wind and the wind, facing the sea, and the spring blossoms, then learn to treat yourself better, and don’t just make peace. I can't make it by myself. So, let go of those things that have to be let go, and enjoy what you have now, while we still have time, right?

    Cold humor and real confusion

    Thinking on the road last night what a hopeless, lifeless cement slab on the ground? A stinging machine, or a haze that fills the sky? What would the vibe be like if a movie put all of this together? Some more music with a hint of hope in despair? Today I dug out this movie from my hard drive and watched it. The climax was that he ran after the car and stuffed the hot dog back, and the beating part was pure catharsis, fuck it!

The Weather Man quotes

  • Dave Spritz: We both just think it's better for the kids.

    Robert Spritzel: David, sacrifice is... to get anything of value, you have to sacrifice.

    Dave Spritz: I know that dad, but I think that if we continue down this road, it's gonna be too detrimental for the kids. It's just too hard.

    Robert Spritzel: Do you know that the harder thing to do and the right thing to do are usually the same thing? Nothing that has meaning is easy. "Easy" doesn't enter into grown-up life.

  • Dave Spritz: Always fast food. Fast food. Things that people would rather throw out than finish. It's easy, it tastes all right, but it doesn't really provide you any nourishment. I'm fast food.
