instilled values

This film is instilling a so-called value. You should do what you should do at your age. To put it bluntly, you have to obey. Therefore, the male protagonist Ben is portrayed as a willful and abusive person. He wanted to use this willful way to be his own master and avoid possible heart disease, not only squandering his health, but also squandering the trust of his surroundings and his family. . Originally the most trustworthy car dealer, it just turned into a street rat. His self-confidence and experience did not bring him wealth or the joy of growth rings, but turned into a betrayal. His daughter and son-in-law were very tired of him and were unwilling to clean up the mess for him. In the end, even if he still If you don't give up on the young mm, you still have to be forced to return to the family.

Perhaps the 60-year-old man played by Michael Douglas is too attractive, and he always finds that he is still attractive to children and beauties. Beauties, regardless of age, are willing to have a relationship with him. Although his grandson can't wait When he went to a party, he was more willing to play video games with him, and he was also willing to be with young people. He seemed very energetic and unrestrained.

The worst thing about him is that he doesn't choose what to eat, and always starts by his side, which makes the relationship awkward. If he is a super rich man, there are many young and beautiful girls who are willing to accompany him.

Compared with the grandfather and grandson of those super old rich people who are often reported in the newspapers, everyone can accept it and it is commonplace. When this happens to one's own father or husband, when encountering such a restless uncle, the sense of morality will flare up. , tired of accusations are coming.

To be honest, I prefer to see Ben seize a chance to succeed again and win the favor of young beauties again, self-righteous.

Solitary Man quotes

  • Jimmy Merino: When my father gave me this place years ago, I used to dream about these girls. Every night, dreams, all kinds of dreams about 'em. But then I'd see them coming back after graduation. They'd come to homecomings, ballgames. They'd sit at the same tables, eat the same food. And I'd look at them and I noticed, they don't stay like this. None of 'em. They put on years and pounds and wrinkles. And I got one like that at home. So. And we can talk to each other. I know her and I'll always know her.

  • Ben Kalmen: You got your little jokes, you know, the Spanish thing, interests are the same, and the studying. But, um, are you getting it, you know, where it counts?

    Maureen: Oh, Ben. Cheston thinks you care about him.

    Ben Kalmen: This has nothing to do with him. He's never gonna know about this. Never.

    Maureen: Aren't you a little old for all this?

    Ben Kalmen: You're still standing here, aren't you?

    Maureen: Yeah, 'cause I'm contemplating throwing this drink in your face. But I'm not going to, because I don't want Cheston to know what you just tried. So you can just walk away. Please.

    Ben Kalmen: Nothing personal.

    Maureen: Hey. That is it, actually. Since you asked, that's what I get from him. Something personal. Besides getting it done where it counts, which he does. Cheston and I reach each other. He's tender and sweet and smart and funny and a million things that you aren't.

    Ben Kalmen: I was once, honey. It doesn't last.
