Then there is the issue of family education. The pronoun of American family education is enlightenment and freedom. I didn't see it in this movie at all. First of all, the male protagonist's father's habit of gambling, prejudice and superstitious parents is really a failure, thinking that it is enough to shed two tears at the critical moment, and see how their family can teach normal children. His mother is also the kind of cowardly person who listens to her husband as useless. It seems that she can only add to the chaos in the movie, but it is understandable that people care about the chaos. And his brother, even in order to highlight the male lead's tolerance and generosity, is it really okay to portray his brother as the kind of person who shows off how good he is when others are in the most difficult time? And his dad just gently stopped him from the side! Anyone who encounters such a friend can't help but curse, let alone his own brother!
Besides, the very prominent incident of being caught in the stadium, his dad TMD actually only cares about losing the ball, and then scolds his younger son. If his eldest son went to fight, how could the male protagonist be so fishy? Can not bear to look. So the words that Tiffany retorted and counterattacked really made me feel so cool, as if saying, "Dare to scold me and my man, we must have strong data to support it. If it wasn't for chasing men, what would I do with so many bullshit ball games?" ! This episode of Jennifer Lawrence is really good, and the male lead is a little weak. (The pit father chases back)
So I don’t understand the American way of thinking, and the values are very different. You can say that they are real and we are hypocritical, you can say that they are open and we are conservative, or that they put human rights first and our morals are conservative. It is because of this inexplicable conceptual estrangement that humans cannot build the Tower of Babel.
But this film can only be summed up at the end: in front of love, everyone is a fool.
