Learn to enjoy growing old

In 1999, "American Beauty" brought the mid-life crisis into the mainstream film theme and brought it to the extreme. Many similar films appeared in the past few years, and many films in recent years have positioned the protagonist as the elderly. For the time being, the group will call this theme the "crisis of old age". For example, "About Schmidt" and "Bucket List" are better shot in the United States. In Europe, there are "Love" and today's "Youth", not to mention the pictures in the picture. The contrast between the young body and the old body that keeps appearing is like this. It was originally a story about two old men, but using a name like youth obviously has some deep meaning. Actually, if you think about it carefully, whether it is "youth crisis" or "middle-age crisis" Or the "old age crisis" is all because of some changes in life. The mentality begins to change. From not accepting the reality to trying to change and then failing to change and then admitting the reality, in the end, time takes everything away. Occasionally, I will ask, "I I'm getting old, but I don't know how..." (I burst into tears when I heard this line)
The sanatorium in Switzerland is so beautiful that there is no treatment, so people can't help but wonder about these old men and women We can enjoy such a good old age, what are you fussing about? It's probably like every child is looking forward to growing up quickly, every old man is looking forward to being able to go back to his youth when he had a lover and a friend Having a career and having a body that doesn't have to worry about getting sick all day long... But life is ruthlessly growing old all the time, so probably learning how to accept and enjoy growing old is the most important thing ...

    If Thomas Mann gave the magic mountain of a generation of Europeans, this is the magic mountain of a generation of European intellectuals. Irreversible decay, decline, oblivion, disappearance, even the force of conflict is gone, submerged, submerged.

    Sorrentino always knows how to put those deep emotions, the great loss, the lonely night, the alienation between people. In the ears of musicians, how the world has a beat, in the eyes of artists, how does the soul feel pain and love. This is a movie that is worth watching back and forth. At different ages, you will see different worlds.

Youth quotes

  • Fred Ballinger: I'm wondering what happens to your memory over time. I can't remember my family. I don't remember their faces or how they talked. Last night I was watching Lena while she was asleep. And I was thinking about all the thousands of little things that I done for her as her father. And I done them deliberately so that she would remember them. When she grows up. But in time. She won't remember a single thing.

  • Mick Boyle: I have to believe in everything in order to make things up.
