Women's fragrance. Always provocative and charming.
Feminine. Always moving and beautiful.
But the story has nothing to do with women, at least not so. Starting from a woman, it is to set off a blind veteran who has been retired from the army, once pedantic, once rebellious, and once unlovable, but he is sensitive enough to easily smell the faint fragrance of the lady's body fragrance.
Well, I use the word sensitive. Because for such a lieutenant who lived in the sky but suddenly became blind, it seemed that there was nothing more important in life. I often remember the stupid question, "Which is more painful? Lost without gain, or lost without gain?"
My answer is the latter.
The film uses blockbuster time and footage to render such an absurd veteran, alcoholic, bad-tempered, persistent in smoking, arrogant and frivolous, and picky at others. Anyway, the beginning of the story starts with the weak laughter of college students who go to school on scholarships, and such a paranoid old man. Such a lot of foreshadowing is completely excusable by me. Why would such a difficult person come to ruin other people's lives?
There are also clichés. Anyway, it is the formula of Hollywood blockbusters. Sad people always have a sad past. The veteran insisted on returning to his brother's house in New York, but he was not welcomed at all. The nephew was unhappy and shook out the old stories of old sesame and rotten millet, which greatly damaged the veteran.
Apart from being so pitiful that no one loves me, I can hardly think of another word to describe such a person. From here on, I look at this man from another angle. He is decisive and has his own way of life. Although he is self-pity, he does not blame others. have some principles of their own. Of course, the male protagonist has other principles, that is, love women. This is almost the only plot worthy of the name of the movie, a middle-aged blind man, and a young and beautiful woman, happily tango on the dance floor, I always worry that he will bump into a musical instrument or some other person, Until the end of the whole dance, there was no mistake, it was perfect as if it had been rehearsed more than once.
When the veteran wanted to commit suicide, Charlie kept him for two reasons - "Actually, you want to live too; you're so handsome when you dance the tango and drive a Ferrari." It's a joke, but it's true, it's hard cover things up.
Imagine a person who can't even see Guangliang, holding the steering wheel in his hand, completely ignoring whether there are cars on the road, whether it is restricted, or whether it should even turn, is such a crazy Sa Huan'er, like a child successfully pedaling a bicycle for the first time , shouting contentedly. At this point, Frank's image has changed again and again - it turned out to be just a childish old fritter pretending to see through the world.
It's not unreasonable to say he is an old fritter. He once said to Charlie, "I used to be rebellious about everything. You rebelled because of your own principles. I rebelled because I proved my existence. I also faced Crossroads, I also know which way is right, but I didn't choose the right way, because I knew it would be full of danger and hardship." I remember a saying that when you know that a pearl is better than a glass ball When it's valuable, you grow up sadly. How can such a person who fully understands common sense after growing up in life not be included in the ranks of the old fritters. In addition, this person's skill in talking to women makes me feel ashamed. Can't help but sigh, Jiang ah, really is still old and spicy.
Of course, the above is a joke. But the story revolves around two clear lines. One is Frank's four-day experience in New York, and the other is how Charlie should solve the troubles at school, whether it is about betraying his friends to protect his own interests, or keeping his mouth shut and being expelled from the school. And the dark line can't escape the understanding of "right and wrong" and the final choice in life.
The end of the film gave us the perfect perfection. The paranoid Frank is as usual, and he is no longer cruel to children. Maybe in a few years, he can really feel the temperature of the women around him before he wakes up every morning. Charlie, on the other hand, stuck to his principles, neither betraying his friends nor keeping his chance at school. What a good story, so good to the point of vulgarity.
But you know what? The real story has just begun. The next stop we have to experience is not only smelling the fragrance of women, but also recognizing the femininity. Can you smell the scent of life? So can you identify what's right and take a bold step forward? Smell the fragrance and know a woman, we have only taken the first step.
