The motivation to watch this film is to enter middle age unconsciously. Like the protagonist, he is anxious, watching others succeed, but still struggling at the bottom,The hero’s doubts about life originate from contrast. They are all their friends, including famous directors, politicians and businessmen. What they all have in common is that they can enjoy life as they like without worrying about money.
Brad took his son to Boston to visit the university. Before leaving, he was disappointed because of the embarrassment caused by the upgrade of the air ticket. When I think about how the rich people travel, old friends have private planes and will no longer take public transport. There is no need to endure, queue up, crowded and despised.
His only pride is his son, who has musical talent. When he missed the interview at Harvard and had to beg for old friends, he was conflicted and tangled. However, for the sake of my son, it doesn’t matter.
I was disappointed to learn that I was excluded from the circle. Old friends forget to call him when they get married. I still have to pretend to my son that I will consider whether to go or not if I have invited myself! We saw a lovely and mean father.
It was still a little efficient for a friend to help. My son went to the interview again, and the response was good. In order to thank their friends for their help, they made an appointment to meet for dinner in the evening.
I really felt the same way in the restaurant. He went to the restaurant ahead of time, but the waiter led him to the table beside the door, which was always disturbed by people coming and going. He asked the waiter to change the table without anyone in the middle. Without permission, he said it was full. He had to endure it. Celebrity politician friends came and greeted him warmly. He took Brad to the middle seat without any hindrance. There was also special service. Brad asked him if he often came, and he said he would come for the first time. When they were talking, perhaps celebrities and politicians were recognized by the masses, and they interrupted from time to time to ask for a group photo, and friends agreed. At a simple party, the politician flaunted his popularity as if nothing had happened, which made Brad burst into anger, and then went to find his son and listen to the concert.
It was this concert that made him burst into tears and looked at himself in the music. He held his son’s hand until the end, and silently read in bed: still alive.
There is a saying on the Internet that has been circulating for many years: as long as you don’t die, you will eventually emerge. In fact, the good reason, as we all know, is that no action has been taken. The plot of the film is very simple, and the reality dilemma reflected by each scene makes us very hurt.
As early as thousands of years ago, there was the voice of “kings, princes and generals, rather than seeds”. That movement failed, with its limitations. Life is alive, and you don’t change. Who can take your place. To change, start from this moment. Although there are still decades to come, every minute is precious. Come on!
