"Mr. Good", before watching the movie, I was thinking about what this movie is about. Is it a man who says everything well and has no opinion? Wouldn't it be absurd, not psychologically distorted and depressed? Turned on the phone with curiosity about the movie.
The male protagonist Carl is very humorous, a person who can bring joy to everyone even when he is very low. There is a clip: Carl's car runs out of gas and is parked on the mountain, and Alison drives him up the mountain on a motorcycle. The two were racing all the way. On the way, Alison asked: Do you think I am fast on a motorcycle? Carl said: No, actually, I think you can be faster, if I crash, I can just die, I don't want to be in a vegetative state. Seeing this, I can't help but applaud his humorous pessimism.
The story is about a man who is addicted to the depression of marriage failure and refuses everything. When he encounters a training class similar to some kind of commitment, he promises to say "yes" to life from now on, otherwise he will suffer great harm. .
Since then, the two beliefs of "yes" and "no" were implanted in his brain, because "yes" he met the girl he liked, and because of this "yes" girl left him.
In the end, in order to break the spell, he found the old gentleman and had a car accident. The old gentleman told him there was no magic spell, it was fake, you took it, you can say "no" and nothing will happen. The purpose of saying "yes" is so that you can voluntarily say yes to life, you embrace the possibility, you absorb all the energy in your life, and you get rid of the dross.
Sending the old gentleman's words to Carl and you too.
