say out

The film expresses the loneliness and helplessness in the life of the retiree to the fullest. After retirement, the huge gap in life makes Schmidt very uncomfortable. As the lady said, although on the surface, he treats people with kindness and smiles. In fact, Schmidt is deep in his heart. It's loneliness, anger, and even fear. All the appearances now are actually an occupational disease caused by work. In the film, Schmidt's overly indifference when he hits a wall and still smiles forcefully makes me feel desolate. About this, the film also grasps the details very well. Among them, Schmidt was very reluctant when he saw his daughter off at the airport. When he came out of the airport and couldn't start the car for a long time, any middle-aged or young man would have a good explosion in the car, but Schmidt Te is not on the contrary, but very calm. His indifference highlights the desolation. There are many details in the film that all highlight this point. To put it bluntly, at this time, Schmidt has no sense of existence and is powerless to everything around him. He has been working hard. To change, to try to find a sense of existence, to go to places where I have been, to interfere in my daughter's wedding, etc. But all failed, there is no place to vent, release again and again, layer after layer, layer by layer, layer by layer, layer by layer, layer by layer, from my personal point of view Mitt's speech at the final wedding banquet can be completely released once, but he hesitated again and again to tell a lie of idealism. This is life. This is also the highlight of the film. Schmidt didn't want to say that he didn't want to release. Of course not, but he said no Exit because this is life. There are too many things like this in our life, let alone a 66-year-old old man who has been thoroughly environmentalized, but deep in his heart, he is clearly unleashed by his yearning. He also has the capital to release at his age who yearns to express his true self, but because of decades of habit, he can't release it. I think so? You can't do this! Then I want that? Neither can you! Wait wait... Now you can! Okay, I get it now. But fuck I don't want to or I just don't have that ability! What does life society bring us and what does it take away from us?

    Every straight man will miss his deceased wife until he finds out that his wife cheated on the letter, but in the end he will forgive his wife because of loneliness. The charm of American films lies in the commercialization of literary films, just like Japanese animation, and the quality of the films is guaranteed. overlooked good movie
