In the afternoon of the weekend, it was raining, and I opened a light comedy "Running the Universe".
At the beginning of the film, there is a non-dialogous urban early morning outdoor scene, accompanied by classical music, slowly kicking off the curtain.
Louis is a wealthy and respected futures officer who lives in a luxury house and has a butler. He seems very sensitive to the market and can accurately determine the highest point of futures.
Poverty depends on the disability, blind and legless Valentine in Vietnam after the war, and encounters Louis because of a discriminatory misunderstanding.
Brothers of the wealthy capitalists, a person who thinks that people will be affected in a bad and bad environment will be abducted and deceived. They bet that the identities of Louis and Valentin will be swapped.
This play is all double male protagonists, equally important, equal weight, and same role. But the audience will definitely like Valentine more.
On the first night when he became rich, he pulled a bunch of ghosts and snakes from a black bar to the mansion for fun, but he quickly calmed down and realized that "they are not my friends, they are just scumbags who see them cheaply. Guy" (the line that I turned back to read). He said thank you to the butler. He accurately predicted the trend and price as soon as he touched the futures (here, it is reasonable to suspect that the script has a golden finger). He saw Louis's poverty, self-rejection and grief and indignation. He didn't hesitate for a moment after he learned the inside story of all this, and immediately found Louis. When Louis said he was going to beat up the capitalists, he said, "I realized that the best way to hurt the rich is to make them poor."
Then they will count, and they will kill the capitalists who play futures. (This drama on the futures trading floor in the 1980s is really good, but I haven't understood how the whole trading process is.)
It is said that "gold always shines." Valentin is undoubtedly the gold, which shines with his kindness, reason, and intelligence. So what if it is dusted gold? How about Louis, who is degraded, and Valentine, who pretends to be a disabled soldier? If they have been in a harsh environment covered in dust, can they still shine?
