The helplessness and sadness of ordinary people

At first, I watched it to pass the boring afternoon, and I hadn't read the comments before, "Golden Family", I thought it was a woman's play, but there were no actresses, and I slept in the middle. But when I saw half of it, I was getting better, and I was able to put the people around me in the right seat.
As a real estate agent, glib lip service, posturing, and cheating are indispensable. Otherwise, there would be no performance, no income, and no way to support the family. It's just that everyone's moral bottom line is constantly being tested, and it can be said that there is no bottom line at all. Some people do it for a living, while others do it for performance. In other words, everyone is working hard, just for different purposes.
At the end of the story, the mood ups and downs are quite big. First, Levine is undoubtedly excited to have successfully signed an order. Second, Ricky does not agree with the client breaking the contract and taking other people's marriage as a test, which is undoubtedly angry. Third, after learning that Levin robbed the office, he was undoubtedly surprised and annoyed. Fourth, it is undoubtedly depressing to know that the order that Levine has successfully signed is invalid. Fifth, when John said that because he didn't like Levine, he deliberately allocated bad business to him, no doubt helpless.
Aren't we the same in life? In China, if you can't fight for your father, you have no money and no power, it is unrealistic to try to create the future with your own hands. If you don't play a little cleverness, and don't test your moral bottom line, everything is for nothing. We often feel that God is fair, isn't it, maybe it's just Ah Q's spiritual self-comfort! Live, always give yourself some confidence and hope!

    David Mamei’s script, iconic machine gun-style lines, and very few scenes adapted from stage plays. Believe it would be better if they were actually performed in the theater? But the premise is that these hardcore actors really! All of them are great! Even Baldwin’s monologue stared at me, haha, even though there are several movie kings sitting in front of him, he still dares to act.

    Mamet's play has a lot of powerful actors, old Jack Clement is too great
