Back then, I urinated ten feet against the wind, but now I wet my shoes down the wind.

When a man's temples are gray, the saddest thing is not that he hasn't finished his career, and it's not that he hasn't spent money, but that he can't get up. What kind of power, status, and fame can be wiped out once soft. The greatest insult to a man is not that he is poor and powerless, but that he cannot. In the film, Fred (Michael Caine) and Mick (Harvey Keitel) are old men, one is a famous conductor and the other is a playwright. They are both successful and admirable. so what! The two hid in the sanatorium and waited quietly for death to come. The first sentence they met every day was "Did you pee today?" Urine is a small thing, not a big one. The two old people looked at the naked young carcass in the hot spring, and there was only a picture of envy of the fish, how sad it must be. Picasso indulged in women and painting all his life. Many people think that women are the source of his creation, but the prostate is actually. After Picasso had prostate surgery in his later years, he lost all his creative inspiration and could only draw some sketches (how fun is it to be alive). Ancient and modern, all over the world, how many kings and domineers, and how many are passionate and generous, depressed and frustrated, are just the outbreak of male hormones. How often have you seen eunuchs have great ambitions, and eunuchs go to guide the country? Aging is sagging skin, sagging muscles, dull and cloudy eyes, brown spots all over the face, gray and sparse hair, and staggering steps. This is common to both men and women. For men alone, aging means not being able to, not lifting, not being hard, not being able to last. It means that even if a hot and deadly girl is willing to offer her body, you can only look at it, and you can't catch it. This is really dying! Don't tell me about Confucius' father, don't tell me about Yang Zhenning, that heaven-defying act is not enough for me and other mortals to follow. Fred and Mick also became in-laws, kissing and kissing, but Mick's son dumped Fred's daughter Lena and had a hot fight with a singer. Mick was ashamed of his old friend, let alone the singer. Yes, Lena, famous, ladylike, good-looking and dignified. Looking at this singer again, there is that vulgar and uncultured energy all over him. Lena couldn't figure out what was wrong with her and how she lost her husband's favor. Mick asked his son for an explanation in front of his old friend Fred. Tell me, how is this singer better than Lena? If you don't give a reason today, don't think of it. The son hesitated for a while, and told the truth: she was excellent in bed. Fred and Mick looked at each other silently, and accepted the reason with silence. Yes, even if you are beautiful as a court vase, it is just a decoration, and the user experience is king. This man understands, understands. Long live the understanding. "The Story of the West Chamber" is well written: "The snail corner has a false name, a small profit, and the mandarin duck is to be demolished." When he was young, he used his good years to exchange for fame, fortune, and wealth, but when he got old, he realized that it was worthless. Erections that seem innocuous or even annoying when you are young are precious when you are old. When the prime years have passed, and when it is difficult to even pee, I can understand more: hard or not is the only criterion for testing the quality of life. Oh, did you pee today?

    Sorrentino's aesthetics, positioning, composition and body movements are also harsh, but the overall feeling is still lifelike, the plot is easy to understand, and it is easy to bring emotions into it. The repetitive contrast between youth, where everything is near, and old age, where everything is far away, is intertwined with dreams and reality, and the connection and performance are calm and relaxed. In fact, the film did not deliberately distinguish between old and young. They are in a harmonious relationship and interact with each other. [B]

    The screenwriter must still be middle-aged. Only middle-aged people can be so melancholy, but the real old people are open to it. The atmosphere is well grasped, but the lines over the top from time to time make people play, and they are a bit sad. In the end because there is still concern.
