This is a film that delves into alcohol.
When I was a child, I learned an idiom, "borrowing your sorrows with wine".
Later, I also learned a poem, "The water will flow more when the knife is cut off, and the sorrow will be more sorrowful with a toast."
But there are still people who are obsessed with alcohol.
So for a long time I was "talking about wine discoloration", I didn't want to do some stupid things like those drunk people, so I chose to stay away from alcohol, I said I was allergic to alcohol and abstain from drinking.
However, it wasn't until every day, when I secretly drank a little, that I finally understood the benefits of alcohol.
Alcohol will give you short-lived happiness, urge you to do things you don't want to do, and it's a dashing, wanton, and beautiful feeling. Alcohol represents passion, fall and escape.
But at the same time, it will also destroy your life, make you "toast your sorrows and worry more", make you lose everything, and leave you with only wine in your life.
Alcohol never changes, its properties are immutable.
The real variable is always the person himself, and the mentality determines everything.
If you just use wine as a pastime, want to add some color to your boring life, and want you to have the courage to do what you want to do, then wine will do what you want.
If you want to use alcohol to solve all your problems, you want to live under the influence of alcohol forever, and all that awaits you is pain, depravity, and destruction, like a gym teacher.
In the beginning, I watched these four men set up an alcohol program with great vigor, and even the plan was quite effective, I thought it was good, I even thought that if they hadn't become addicted in the end, the alcohol program might have been successful. .
But is that really the case?
All of their changes were never brought about by alcohol, which may act as a catalyst, making you feel like you can rely on it to rekindle your passion and find yourself. But in fact, this has always been a blind spot of thinking. It is not alcohol at all that makes you change, but your determination to escape from this comfort zone that is suppressing you.
At first they rely on alcohol, from strictly controlling the daily intake to later trying to liven up their lives through large intakes, which is all wrong. At the end of the day, they've been running away, watching the world from behind alcohol, thinking it would bring a sense of security. Even, lost his life.
But the alcohol gave them a blow, and the alcohol told them it was not that easy.
Love and youth, vitality, passion never need alcohol to be found, they are only temporarily buried in the dust.
Finally when they ditched the bottle and stopped relying on it so much, everything they wanted came back. The alcohol at this time is a vague thing for them, and for them, it is just a booster.
We don't need to deify alcohol, or to paint it as dangerous.
Alcohol is always like that, it just depends on how you treat him.
I would say, the best attitude is to drop everything and get drunk every now and then, confirm rationally that you want to get drunk, recognize or face what might happen, and then get drunk. It's okay to dance a dance like Uncle Mai.
I think the most outstanding thing about this film is not only Uncle Mai, but also the rendering of the atmosphere. If you look closely, there are contrasts everywhere.
At the beginning, those students drank wantonly, that youthful energy, there was a feeling that I was the only one in the world. But when the four of them were drunk, I felt dangerous. The same is drunk, one is to control the alcohol by himself, and the other is that the alcohol captures people.
And when the four of them were happy, no matter how happy they were in the early stage, they felt covered in a layer of gray fog; at the end, the three of them roared, that was the real happiness, and they felt fresh.
And Uncle Mai, when he appeared at the beginning of the movie, I wanted to say I would choke if I were his student. For Zang Ke's family, "Some people are alive, he is dead" is a perfect gift to Martin at the beginning. So much so that my friends at the time said that he was out of line when he was young, and I was surprised. But at the end, I saw from this middle-aged man the high-spirited appearance of the young man, as well as the vigorous vitality, blood, and passion.
Uncle Mai's acting skills are really excellent, and he's so handsome! ! ! !
The solo dance at the end was stunned!
Originally this was a four-point slice, but because of Uncle Mai, ahem, five points!
I think I know how to deal with alcohol now, and occasionally get drunk when I'm bored, but I'll get my stomach meds ready a few days in advance.
I just didn't prepare it in advance this time, it was very refreshing to drink, and it was going to hurt to death when I woke up.
I think I now know as
what to do with alcohol?
