American Beauty - wonderful lines

I watched the movie while on vacation.

The lines are wonderful.

Wife: I'm complete awe of you. I mean, your firm is hands down the Rolls Royce of local real estate firms, and your personal sales record is, it's very intimidating. I'd love to sit down with you and just pick your brain.

Complimented man: According to her, I'm too focused on my career. As if being driven to succeed is some sort of a character flaw. She certainly did take advantage of the lifestyle my success afforded her. Call me crazy, but it is my philosophy that in order to be successful, one must project an image of success at all times. The benefits that success provides. You can call me crazy, but my philosophy in life is that in order to be successful, one must maintain an image of success at all times)

The woman is a drunken slogan, satisfying the man's great vanity, and the two begin to get together. Originally, each other's life was riddled with holes, and the living color gave birth to a fresh appearance.

The first time the boy showed a girl what he thought was the most beautiful video, a plastic bag dancing around a street corner before the snow, the boy said a great line: That's the day I realized that there was this entire life behind things and this incredibly benevolent force that wanted me to know that there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Sometimes there is so much beauty in the world. I feel like I can't take it. And my heart, is just going to cave in. (Translation: The day I realized the whole life behind things, this benevolent force wants me to know that there is no reason to be afraid, never. There is so much beauty in this world that I can't take it anymore. My heart is already about to collapse)

The human heart is a very strange container. Sometimes a little bit of things can overflow, and sometimes it fills up like a black hole. Sometimes I feel that I have grasped some very beautiful things, and sometimes I clearly feel that these things can’t be too much. The more they are, the more greedy they become.

The adultery between a man and a woman is discovered by the woman's husband. When the man runs away, he says: I guess we should cool it for a while. I'm facing a potentially very expensive divorce. (Translation: I think we should calm down. I There is also a large amount of divorce alimony to face)

The all-too-normal reaction to a man is that a woman goes crazy in the car and then goes hysterical. An extramarital affair is just a new stimulus for a man, but a rejuvenating drug for a woman. Even her husband noticed that the woman's face was radiant recently. Poor man, it's just a momentary start for a man and an end to another performance.

American Beauty said: I don't think there's anything worse than being ordinary.

Of course, she knew that she was beautiful, and she was unwilling to be mediocre. She always mocked the covetousness of men with a familiar tone, but she missed the point. When she told her classmate's father that she was still a virgin, she instantly evoked a certain part of the man's noble character. . The girl just owes her mouth, but she is naive. She asked casually, which made the man sigh: It's been a long time since anybody asked me that. .

Man ended up being shot and killed by neighbors because of a misunderstanding. Death narration brings the film to its climax: I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me, but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst. And then I remember to relax and stop trying to hold on to it. And then it flows through me like rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life. You have no idea what I'm thinking about, I'm sure. But don't worry. You will someday. Yes, but it's really hard because there's so much beauty in this world. Sometimes I feel like I can't bear to watch it all at once, and my heart is like a full balloon that will explode at any time. Later, I remember to relax and don't keep trying to hold on to it. All the goodness washes me like rain and makes me grateful for every stupid and humble piece of life. You must have no idea what I'm talking about, but don't worry, one day you'll understand)

It's very interesting here, the dead man and his daughter's boyfriend, that is, the neighbor boy, mentioned there's so much beauty in the world. The boy said he couldn't bear it, and the man sighed until he died, the beautiful things are actually fleeting, thankful for once Own, but don't dream of long-term possession. What you think is only what you think. One day, the truth will be revealed.

The film after being edited and compressed restores the truth of life to the greatest concentration. People always want to live an extraordinary life, and eventually fall into the world inevitably, so enjoying the moment may be the most extraordinary shining moment in an ordinary life.
