Reign Over Me

A
Charlie stood on a motorcycle, with disheveled hair, a straight waist, and a lonely back. "I am a simple man. So I sing a simple song ......" slowly sounded, following the steps.
Bicycles are like fallen leaves, walking through the streets of the city in early winter, fast but not fast, and drifting away.
Every turn, I never hesitated, as if I had no worries. Passing all the way, day, evening, and night faded. . . . . . The scenery is clear and the light and shadow are warm.
Light and sad, I like the taste.
Charlie wears big earphones, wears a heavy coat, and mumbles, trying to wrap herself warm, trying to isolate herself from the world, trying to give up all the memories.
His expression was stagnant, walking silently through his own spiritual world, resolutely and resolutely.

The disappearing back of Charlie's bicycle reminds me of the madman riding a bicycle in prison escape, spreading his arms and trying to fly.
The same indulging in the world, the same struggling back.
An ecstatic, fast
a dejected, Qiong Qiong Jie Li

two
Johnson - famous black dentist, a wife and two women, ordinary life. Occasionally, a female patient confessed ambiguously, suppressed by the partner, but also tolerated and retreated. The operation in the besieged city was easy and smooth. They seem to be happy and peaceful, but they don't know the people in the besieged city. Under the so-called pressure of life, each still has a room that can't be walked out of. There is no door to find and no window to lean on.

Charlie-a former dentist. The 9/11 air crash claimed the lives of his wife, three daughters and a poodle, and completely destroyed Charlie's world. From then on, he plunged himself into the shadows, facing in isolation. Live in an empty house, play ps2 games all night, go out to ride a motorcycle, and choose real-world sounds by adjusting the volume in the earphones. Without meeting people talking, collecting old records, and painting the kitchen at home over and over again, he tried to save himself through a strong heart, but he got deeper and deeper without knowing it.

They are roommates and close friends of the university. Encountered on the street in winter, fate makes the world of the two people very different, but the years stubbornly entangle the trajectory of the two people. Friendship, family, destiny, years, disasters, stress. . . . . . All the life factors slowly emerged in the communication between the two men, and gradually became warmer in the winter sun.

Johnson sat beside Charlie, trying to share his suffering. Charlie still said nothing. Johnson accompanies Charlie to drink, play games, watch old midnight movies, pick up guitars and drums, and sing those school songs. The memories of the years of youth heal the pains, but at least they are no longer alone.
Charlie asked Johnson to stand on the motorcycle and walk through the city together, laughing and laughing all the way. It's like a perfect life. Men’s friendship is so simple, they can comfort each other, regardless of time.

"I have three daughters, Gina is 5 years old and Jenny is 7 years old. She already likes boys. Julie is 9 years old. They look alike, they all look like Doreen. My wife... We have one. A dog called a spider is a poodle. They always like to wake me up. On Saturday morning, they sing the Beatles song to me. The four of them sing together..." Charlie finally started talking about herself. The sealed past, his eyes were sad, and he sobbed softly.
Only when the happiness at hand stops abruptly can people feel the same way. Those so-called disturbances are nothing but smoke. The greatest suffering is the loss after possession.
The seemingly strong and hard heart is far from the opponent of soft memories
.

The three
climaxes are abrupt, but unexpected.
Charlie told his father-in-law who was trying to send him to the lunatic asylum, and said that he was really sad. Mercury floods the ground, pointing directly at people's hearts. All the people who have lost their true feelings will recall in that monologue the years that they were once unbearable and tried to get out of it.

I don't need to talk about or look pictures. I don't need to talk about or look pictures.

Because the truths a lot times i see it on the street. Because the truths a lot times i see it on the street.

how won't times street i see it someone other faces. I can see on it.

clarity the any your pictures, could you. clear the any your pictures, could you.

i get your pain but your guy each other. i get your pain but your guy each other.

you guy each other. and i am the one who's the gril see all the time everywhere ago.
You are with each other. I am the one who always sees her and the children.

i indeed the dog. That's fuck ..... I even see the dog. It was so fucking miserable. It was obviously a German Shepherd, but what I saw was a damn poodle.
(Return)

Charlie finally left the empty house, the house full of memories and the tentacles of relatives. Leave a brand new and beautiful kitchen. Because in the last conversation with Doreen, they were arguing about the decoration color and style of the kitchen.
After Charlie tried various colors over and over again, he left the most beautiful kitchen, the one that Doreen and the children liked.
He finally chose to leave.

Johnson stood on the motorcycle left by Charlie, crossing the streets back home.
The wind blows the robe, and the heart is warm, unstoppable.

"Is life always this hard.or is it just when you're a kid?"
"Always like this."

    Post-traumatic sequelae, Adam Sandler's performance is very good. There are a lot of close-ups of Wanda and the Colossus.. But the first time I went to his house, he said that there was one left, but after I went, I was playing the first one.. - -

    This is the first adam Sandler drama I've watched~~ still has traces of his comedy performances~~ a person's own performance style is hard to erase~~ a drama without danger, it is estimated that It can arouse the feelings of Americans who have experienced 9/11. In my opinion, it is only ok, and it can be seen at the level of improvisation.
