标题: Breaking Night - 书评 [打印本页] 作者: 角落有故事 时间: 2013-5-25 18:01 标题: Breaking Night - 书评 " Breaking Night reads more like an adventure story than an addiction-morality tale. It's a white-knuckle account of survival. . . . By age 6, Murray knew how to mainline drugs (though she never ...
“Forgiving her didn’t mean that I wasn’t devastated. I was heartbroken and deeply hurt whenever they left us hungry. I just didn’t blame Ma or Daddy for my hurt. I wasn’t angry at them. If I hated anything at all, I hated drugs and addiction itself, but I did not hate my parents. I loved my parents, and I knew they loved me. I was sure of it.
Ma and Daddy were always making it clear that they simply couldn’t give me what they didn’t have. They had no intention to hurt us. It wasn’t as if they were running off during the daytime to be better parents to some other kids and then returning home at night to be awful to us. They simply did not have it in them to be the parents I wanted them to be. So how could I blame them?”
The world moves. You're just a speck. It can all happen without you. Situations are not conducive to what you want for yourself. Someone else's needs, someone else's plight is going to be stronger than yours is. I think people just get frustrated with how harsh life can be, so they spend their time dwelling on that frustration and calling it anger, keeping their eyes shut to the wholeness of the situation, to all the little tiny things that have come together to make it, what it is.
世界在转动,你只是一粒尘埃,就算你消失了,地球仍然转动。现实是不会按照你的意志去改变的,因为别人的意志更强些。生活的残酷会让人不知所措,于是有人终日沉浸在彷徨愤怒之中,不愿意睁大双眼看清形势, 不愿去想是哪些细小的因素累积起来, 造成了这样的局面。 作者: YUQI 时间: 2013-8-3 10:40
因为看了这个电影,在网上看了几个简短的访谈决定看她的自传,两整天看完这三百多页的自传,在看到一半,而再去回忆电影里的情节时,感觉到电影中对人物和故事描述的单一性,感觉就像小时候学校会安排孩子们看的一些”主题“电影,里面的人物似乎总是只有一个性格,一个面。人的多面性,和复杂的心理,千丝万缕仿佛是永远解不开的缠绕。细微的描写,和一段段的自白,让这个感觉遥不可及的故事那么亲近。让人从她的故事里,看到自己,其实我们不都是这样,脆弱又坚强,渴望爱人与被爱,懒惰又勤奋,自私又无私,因为我们都只是人。好像Liz一直说得“那些人”,而最终明白其实我们都只是人而已。“whatever your background may be, the same holds true for each of us: life takes on the meaning that you give it."
