Sideways2004
In search of wine. In search of women. In search of themselves.
Two middle-aged men embark on a spiritual journey through Californian wine country. One is an unpublished novelist suffering from depression, and the other is only days away from walking down the aisle.

79Hysterically funny yet melancholy comedy.
非常现实的中产阶级困境,葡萄酒与文学的精英主义设置了共情的门槛,真情实感的叹息难免会在不同阶级眼中成为无病呻吟。更希望此类影片能有更多女性视角作品;女性在这类题材中太沉默了,永恒的他者与困境制造者,是小怪是boss而不是英雄勇士。对身边人不再怀有希望,打开珍藏的61年白马庄园波尔多红本身就是一场仪式。生活如此,公路电影不一定带来治愈与成长,兜兜转转仍是庸常。喝着勃艮第黑皮诺的夜晚观看,很应景。
It's an intoxicating feeling when a movie excites and enlivens us like this -- and there's a particular giddiness to be had in thinking about what movies can (but don't often) do for one's soul after imbibing such a fine vintage.
