"Life with a glass of wine" shows a truth: ordinary people's stories are more attractive to the audience than those dazzling stunts.
The character image of Miles portrayed by "Glasses of Wine" has a thought-provoking "three-dimensional" character and is full of humanity. This is the most conscious of the many ordinary characters portrayed by director Payne. The most exciting scene in the film is that Miles and Maya take turns explaining their reasons for falling in love with alcohol. A simple scene becomes a classic because of the outstanding performance of the two actors. The deep but extremely vulnerable relationship between Miles and Maya is the main line of the film, and the slutty and comical relationship between Jack and Stephanie, who is the side line, is also performed wonderfully. Paul Giamatti, the actor of Miles, is also a highlight of the film. His quirky appearance makes this seemingly ordinary character full of expressiveness. Because of this, "A Life with a Glass of Wine" is sometimes as calm as the afternoon sun, which rejuvenates the forgotten traditional film art techniques with vigorous and strong vitality.
"Life with a Cup of Wine" is a small production without big stars, an independent production film about ordinary people's life, and a return to traditional film art. The ordinary stories of the little people have accurately grasped the pulse of life and the times. It extols true love and lashes out hypocrisy. It is indeed like a glass of wine, worthy of people to savor. Because there are no big stars in the film, ordinary audiences can feel the closeness and attraction of the film. It seems that the film is about the people and things happening around them.
"Drinking Life" tells a story about wine, women and men's midlife crisis, rich and subtle, just like a fine novel.
