Bf was looking for some pirated movies to buy the other day and this movie caught my eye. I thought he will like Ben Stiller's acting.
It is a comedy-drama.
I realised I started talking a bit like him after the show. Some of the lines are funny but when you read between the lines along with the context and flow of the movie, you won't think of it as funny anymore. Instead, it is painfully funny.
Synopsis from Moviefone:-
Roger Greenberg (Ben Stiller), single, fortyish and at a crossroads in his life, finds himself in Los Angeles, house-sitting for six weeks for his more successful/married-with-children brother. In search of a place to restart his life, Greenberg tries to reconnect with old friends including his former bandmate Ivan (Rhys Ifans). But old friends aren't necessarily still best friends, and Greenberg soon finds himself spending more and more time with his brother's personal assistant Florence (Greta Gerwig), an aspiring singer and also something of a lost soul. Despite his best attempts not to be drawn in, Greenberg and Florence manage to forge a connection, and Greenberg realizes he may at last have found a reason to be happy.
Fragile.
It is easy to be weak. It is never easy to be fragile.
One is of choice and another is not.
Living in the past is stupid. Living in the present and not mindful is a waste of life. Being mindful does not mean you have to totally embrace the presence while ignoring the action plan.
Live a meaningful life is not the same as living a busy life. Doing nothing can be a way of life. (Doing nothing here means not having a full time job specifically) Doing a lot of things can also be one of the ways.
What makes you happy? Is happiness important or you think happiness should not be sought after on purpose?
