For a post-80s old aunt who often writes entertainment gossip, the lace gossip of celebrities is what I am good at. Maybe this time everyone has been staying at home for a long time, and the little cuties of the pickpocket sister are tired of the artists' gossip and lace, so several fans have asked me to recommend some movies and TV series; a 35-year-old male fan asked me how to change his life now that he is 35 years old and in deep trouble. Pickpocket sister here thank you for your love, the answer and method I do not have here, combine these two questions together, after watching this Japanese movie we will talk again.
The protagonist of the film is sakurai (Masato Sakai), who also happens to be 35 years old. After years of struggle, he has always been poor and poor, feeling that his future will never come out. Looking for a job, hitting a wall one after another, eventually losing his job; falling in love, his girlfriend looking down on him, marrying someone else after breaking up...
Successive blows made this desperate middle-aged man think of suicide. However, due to his cowardly nature, Sakurai did not even have the courage to commit suicide.
You may have seen the little friends who already know which movie the pickpocket sister wrote - "The Way to Steal the Key".
The Movie The Way to Steal the Key is a 128-minute feature film produced by Cine Bazar in Japan. Directed and written by Kenji Uchida and starring Masato Sakai, Teruyuki Kagawa, Yoshiko Hiromi, Ryoya Arakawa, Andyoko Moriguchi, the film was released in Japan on September 15, 2012.
What if Sakurai repeatedly commits suicide? Heartbroken, he happened to find that he still had a bath ticket, thinking: Maybe I am too dirty to even accept me? If that's the case, then I'll wash it clean and "go"! Unexpectedly, his decision gave himself a chance to have a new life.
Just as Sakurai was going to take a bathhouse, a traveler in the bathhouse slipped and fell unconscious after stepping on a bar of soap. In the wrong mood, Sakurai and the traveler exchanged the key to the locker. When Sakurai opened the other person's locker, he was dumbfounded: not only did he have a lot of money, but he also had the keys to a car.
After a struggle of ideas, Sakurai decided to take the traveler's money and drive away his car.
After that, Sakurai was exactly like a different person, he used the stolen money to pay off his debts; he drove in a car to find a job, a girl... Perhaps out of fear and guilt, he decided to go to the hospital to see the slippery traveler. Unexpectedly, the other party was seriously injured and lost his memory.
In this way, Sakurai "deservedly" replaced the other person's identity: driving his luxury car, living in his mansion, and living the rich life he had dreamed of.
What he didn't expect was that this amnesiac man named Kondo (Kagawa Teruyuki) was actually a killer. Sakurai enjoyed the other's rich life, but also brought a lot of trouble because of the other's identity.
When Kondo came out of the hospital, he mistakenly thought he was Sakurai, who was devastated. When asked for directions, he met the magazine's editor-in-chief, Sanae (Ryoko Hiromi), a 34-year-old middle-aged woman who set a date for marriage even though she didn't even have a marriage partner.
Originally, Early Miao had an extraordinary temperament, outstanding appearance, and many colleagues who pursued her, but she refused one by one - colleagues were confused all day, unmotivated, and were not her ideal objects.
In fact, her requirements for the marriage partner are very simple: be in good health and self-motivated! Kondo, who did not expect to lose her memory, aroused her good feelings.
After "exchanging identities" with Sakurai, Kondo returned home (actually Sakurai's home) and sighed when he saw the chaotic room: "At the age of 35, there is no fixed job, living alone in this kind of place, and if you don't commit suicide, you will commit suicide!" ”
Sighing and sighing, Kondo did not give up on himself. First, he began to clean the room and cleaned the room step by step; second, he began to record his life in the form of a diary or bit by bit; then, he "picked up" the dream that Sakurai had lost and began to study continuously; finally, he began to look for a job.
Through Kondo's continuous efforts, he not only found a job (won an actor role in the crew), but also gained his love.
On the other side, after Sakurai and Kondo swap identities, can they achieve happiness? I believe that the pickpocket sister is no longer nagging, and the answer is self-evident.
Seeing this, we solve the problem in the topic: how can a 35-year-old middle-aged man change his life when he is in deep trouble?
Start by changing your living environment
Let's look at the second picture of the article, Kondo's home is dirty and messy, clothes and cigarette butts are littered, can you live in such an environment every day with the confidence to change? Just like Kondo sighed when he first saw this situation: "Living in this environment, if you don't want to commit suicide, you have to commit suicide!" ”
Kondo, on the other hand, started by cleaning up his room. Writing here, the pickpocket sister can't help but think of a letter that the writer Sanmao once wrote to a fan:
From your short self-introduction, it seems very shocking, twenty-nine years old is just young, actually a series of use - the lowest, poor, bleak, inferior, ordinary, humble, limited ability these many incorrect definitions to describe themselves... If it were me, the first thing I would do would be to decorate my room. I would paint the room bright white, make myself a beautiful curtain on the window, I would put a small ordinary radio at the head of the bed, make a bookshelf in the corner, change the light bulb with a warm and warm lampshade, and then, I would go to the flower market, carefully pick a few pots to see the pleasant bonsai, and put them in my window. If I still have any money left, I'll go buy a few copies of the famous paintings— the poster-like ones— and hang them on the wall.... In my estimation, it will not exceed four thousand Taiwan dollars, of course, except for the radio, everything is done by yourself, which saves the cost of craftsmen, and life will be much more interesting.
Sanmao's advice is the same as Kondo's approach in the movie!
Keep a good attitude
We see Sakurai in the movie lamenting and sighing all day, talking about himself enclosed in the dou room every day. The optimistic Kondo occasionally sat in small restaurants and strolled around the street, on the one hand, to make himself cheerful, on the other hand, he also defended his inferiority by making friends. Kind, virtuous, and self-motivated people have more contact, and their lives have gradually begun to be enriched.
Never forget your ideals
Sakurai's ideal is to be an actor, but his ideal only stays on the level of fantasy. He lay in bed all day fantasizing about one day becoming a big star, becoming a star, and it seemed that everything could change now. Constantly comforting and paralyzing yourself, and then gradually forgetting your ideals. Kondo, on the other hand, knows exactly what he wants to do and what he wants, and reminds himself all the time. Let me ask you: Can a middle-aged man who has forgotten his ideals change his life?
Keep learning constantly
Any industry, any profession, any age needs to be constantly learning to progress, not to mention middle-aged men in difficult situations. As the line in the movie says, "The Strasberg book in your room only reads the first 8 pages, and the same goes for the other books." It was hard to have a little bit of motivation to learn, but as soon as the book was bought, it was satisfied. "Isn't this a true portrayal of many middle-aged men in distress?"
Without learning, what is the change?
Act now
Inertia everyone has, take the pickpocket sister, originally this article wanted to be left until tomorrow to write, but tomorrow there are tomorrow's things! Tomorrow after tomorrow, how many tomorrows? Do the first few things well and act now, because only then will you have the possibility and opportunity to change your life!
Stunned to write a film review as a "chicken soup text", the grill sister is also helpless.
But even if this movie can bring you a little warmth, a little encouragement, I think this article is worth it!
Pickpocket sister is also a middle-aged man, also very ordinary, every month also need to pay off the car loan, mortgage, credit card, but we are still very young, change life, first start by changing yourself.
Well, I hope that you who see this article will win everything, realize your ideals as soon as possible, and change your life!
