寻找幸福的赫克托

当时听闻Simon为了拍摄《 Hector and the Search for Happiness》到了上海，我毅然带着《Nerd do Well》乘十几个小时的火车赴沪，辗转两天，偏偏Simon到了上海前两天什么消息都没有，也没被人扑到，我跑遍了一切可能的地方，最后迫于学校有考试，想到不得不无功而返的时候内心百感交集，只记得最后站在浦东的滨江大道失望的吹着江风，繁华的都市更衬托自己的悲凉...回来后，我却凭借一手消息帮助一个上海本地机油在老街一个很不起眼的巷子里找到了拍戏的Simon，那天，现场的粉丝很少，她们就在那看了很久的活生生的Simon，Simon还走近她们与她们交流甚至拥抱...而我最终仅仅收到了一份签名..图戳→http://www.douban.com/photos/photo/2181127937/ 签名是那位在我帮助下找到Simon的机油帮忙要的，她对Simon说了我寻找他却扑空的故事，她能做到这么多已经很不容易了，可能相对很多人来说，有一份签名已经十分宝贵了，但是如果我能在上海多留几天，就能和她们一样见到Simon，想到这点，依然遗憾之至。

两年半过去了，直到现在才敢看这部电影，直到现在才敢正视这份遗憾。

就电影本身来说，这样一部正能量题材的电影本身就是我的菜，画面也十分纯净和唯美，一路上遇到很多人和事，越到后面越多的煽情桥段、越会触碰人们心底的东西，让我在观影时也在思考什么样的东西才是我最珍贵的，什么样的东西才是我快乐的源泉。

最后，Simon的笑真心治愈，是对快乐最好的诠释。

无意中知道这部电影，一看，居然有佩吉和罗莎！

这组合居然再次降临，罗莎你在《消失的爱人》里变态之前居然 和佩吉合作治愈系小清新！

你和佩吉果然是荧幕最佳情侣嗯。。。

片头看到德国出品的时候稍微疑惑了下，结果，这碗鸡汤的味道开始越来越古怪，一个住在欧洲大城市，有着美丽能干的女友，有着体面的工作，然后开始华丽的闹起了中年危机，话说心理医生这个职业真的是荧屏最爱之一，而且大都不是什么正面塑造，欧美电影工作者你们这么喜欢黑心理医生，你们的心理医生知道么？

其实，如果剧情变成一个心理医生对自己的工作方法产生疑惑，然后通过旅行和高科技来得到更好的工作方式从而帮助病人，这样的故事比什么寻找幸福真的好一万倍，编剧好好去采访采访真正的心理医生吧，看看他们的职业困境到底是什么，放心，绝对不是对“幸福"的困惑。

好吧，至少本片是少有的没有黑中国的电影，毕竟中国每年买了不少宝马奔驰车，中国历任总理都会去德国访问。

中国的镜头很棒的表现了现代化大都市的特色，看上去不像日本，不像纽约，就是完全的中国上海。

直到那个很像刘玉玲一般的亚洲女演员的出现，露了露身材，希望她能红起来吧。

银行家居然是《复仇者联盟》的教授，请欧美有钱人把钱给我们让我们不幸福，拜托了。

然后就华丽的去了西藏，这里真的是在暗指da lai，那个西藏大师从各个角度看都是在暗指那个在德国混的很爽的逃亡”大师“，藏独的中心就在慕尼黑，德国出品嘛。

这个大师果然也是很有da lai的作风，忽悠人的水平一绝，有义务去幸福？

这什么狗屁结论？

哈佛的幸福课程分分钟打这片子的脸啊。

这种说法也就吸毒的人才赞同，“我有义务把这20克吸掉，因为我要幸福”。

然后非洲，西藏，非洲，北欧，这三个地方真是欧美人“寻找自我”的经典景点。

另外，出去旅游英语比德语重要一万倍。

然后就是笔和笔记的问题，前面还算有趣，先不说每次有笔画画却没笔写东西，片子后面这笔记完全消失了。

后面教授华丽登场，片子里的仪器是实际存在的，但是非常不普及，临床科研主要工具还是磁共振，图示的脑区成功的达到了扭曲科学事实的结果，和幸福有关的脑区没那个简单。

不过这片子也体现了心理学真的需要神经科学的辅助，不然还是没什么进展。

本片另外的问题就是生孩子结婚才能“幸福”反复被提起，这片子估计会让国内不少女性喷死，她们会和德国女性一起喷，论独立自主，德国女性在世界可以进前五。

女主角又露了露身材，太美。

我完全没认出来让雷诺，真是肥的不成样子了。

这片子不如类似题材的《白日梦想家》，至少那片子还有趣。

Hector (Simon Pegg) is flying one of those old World War II biplanes. His dog is in the backseat and they are happy. Hector does a loop and the dog falls out. Hector realizes and starts screaming. A comic book type villain pops up from the rear of the plane and they begin to fight. Hector wakes up.Hector and his girlfriend Clara (Rosamund Pike) live a neat and tidy life of habit and order. He is a successful psychiatrist. His rates haven't changed for years and neither has Hector. She works for a drug company and has launched a new pill called Tranqualine.One nigh, Hector and Clara go to a restaurant to celebrate the success of Tranqualine. Clara's boss is happy that Clara never left them for a maternity leave and is totally devoted to the company without the interference of children.The owner of the restaurant notices that Hector isn't as boorish as the others. He tells her that he doesn't work for the company. He's a psychiatrist. She tells him she wants happiness, but because of her accent it sounds like wants a penis. Hector and Clara have a laugh about a penis, but truth be told, the conversation makes Hector start questioning his own happiness.His ordered life now feels like a drag. He begins to lose patience for his patients and eventually snaps. Eventually Hector snaps.He tells Clara that he needs to go on a journey to research happiness. While Clara packs for Hector she finds an old photo in his sock drawer of a younger Hector with another man and a woman. She doesn't say anything about it. Hector asks if shell still be there when he returns. She asks how long hell be gone. He doesn't know. Neither does she.Hector flies business class to China. He sits next to a cranky business man named Edward (Stellan Skarsgard). He finds that Clara has packed him a notebook to log his journey and to doodle. She also included the photograph she found in his sock drawer. Edward complains that things are better in first class. Hector notes:1. Making comparisons can spoil your happiness.Hector wants to order from the duty free store on the plane, but needs to fill out paperwork. He cant find a pen. Edward lets him borrow his, but tells him that it costs more than his car and he had better return it.At the airport, Hector fumbles with his map and realizes he still has Edwards pen. He runs to return it and Edward decides to show Hector what his happiness is. He takes him to a nice hotel and a nicer meal. Hector asks Edward what his happiness is. Edward says he works too much to think about it. Happiness is supposed to be retirement and enjoying life. But the only way to enjoy retirement is to not retire. But because Edward works so hard and makes so much money he is able to enjoy the most lavish or luxuries. Hector notes:2. A lot of people think happiness is being rich or important.Edward takes Hector to a very exclusive nightclub in Shanghai full of women. Hector meets Ying Li (Ming Zhao) and instantly falls for her hard. He notes:3. Many people see happiness only in their future.He also notes after having spent a non-sexual night in bed with a naked Ying Li:4. Happiness could be the freedom to love more than one woman at the same time.He takes her out to lunch. There are a group of poor women sitting on the street eating together and having a great time. They're surrounded by a sea of grim businessman, not completely unlike Edward. Hector asks what makes them so happy. Hector asks Ying Li to go with him to the mountains and together they can meet her family. She cant go because its shameful how she makes a living. On cue, we meet her pimp. Ying Li isn't a student. Ying Li is a prostitute. The previous night was a gift from Edward. Hector notes:5. Sometimes happiness is not knowing the whole story.Hector goes up the mountains and visits some monks. He asks one how he can be happy even though hes suffered so much in life. The monk explains and Hector notes:6. Avoiding unhappiness is not the road to happiness.Hector helps the monks set up their dish network and hes able to Skype Clara. She asks how Shanghai was. Neither can help but to notice how evasive Hector is at answering that question. The wind blows down the radar dish and the signal is lost. The monks dance beneath many colored flags which dance in the wind. They find happiness where Hector is finding grief. Next, he goes to Africa.Hector flies on a terrifying plane. One of the African women tries to comfort him by noting how old the plane is. That means its never crashed. If they land safely he should meet her family for Sweet Potato Stew. He notes:7. Does the person you're with bring you predominately A): Up or B): Down?Hector meets his old friend Michael (Barry Atsma) from the photograph in the sock drawer. He and his bodyguard Marcel take Hector to his hotel. Its a dive. In the bar he meets a drug lord named Diego Baresco (Jean Reno). Diego is upset and quick tempered. He doesn't believe in happiness because his wife is unhappy in spite of taking medication to make her happy. Hector offers to look at her prescriptions. He finds out there may be some harmful interactions between pills and directs Diego to a colleague who may be able to help. He has to borrow Diego's pen though, because he's given Edward's pen back.Michael sees Hector talking to Diego and explains that Diego is a criminal and should be avoided. Hector still has his pen. He spends a week helping out at Michael's clinic and notes:8. Happiness is answering your calling.At the end of the week he finds out that Marcel is more than Michael's bodyguard. Hes his lover. And they're happy. Hector notes:9. Happiness is being loved for who you are.Hector meets the lady from the plane and has Sweet Potato Stew with her family. He notes:10. Sweet Potato Stew!On the way back to his hotel his vehicle is carjacked and he is kidnapped and locked in a rat infested cell. He notes:11. Fear is an impediment to happiness.The kidnappers are about to kill him. Hector says he's friends with Diego, but cant prove it. A gun is pointed at his head, but Hector asks if he can make one final note in his book about what brings his captors happiness. He pulls out his pen to write, its Diego's gold and engraved pen. He is able to prove that he knows Diego. The kidnappers let him go. He notes:12. Happiness is feeling completely alive.The previously stuffy Hector would never dance. The reborn Hector celebrates and dances with the woman from the planes family. He notes:13. Happiness is knowing how to celebrate.He Skypes Clara, who is getting dressed in a fancy gown. He explains that he was kidnapped. She's disinterested. She has plans of her own and has to go.Hector flies First Class to Los Angeles. On the plane, he attends to a woman with a brain tumor. The pressure from the altitude is causing her extreme pain. She just needs to get to her sister to say goodbye. The pilot clears the plane for flying lower. When they land, everyone cheers. Hector tells the paramedics not to take her to the hospital, but to see her sister instead. She tells him he's very good at what he does. He explains he's not actually that kind of doctor. She clarifies that she means he's very good at listening. He notes.14. Listening is loving.Hector goes to the beach in Santa Monica where the photo was taking with him, Michael and Agnes (Toni Collette). She's pregnant and has two other kids. Agnes, Hectors one who got away, is happily married. He calls Clara to tell her he's in Los Angeles. She says she knew this whole trip was about rekindling an old flame. He explains that she's married and has kids. Hector tells Clara that smothering is mothering with an S. They break up.Agnes and Hector are going to meet with Professor Coreman (Christopher Plummer) who has written a book on and is studying the effects of happiness on the brain. On the way there, Agnes tells Hector that its unfair and insulting that he put her on a pedestal because she's better than his fantasy because she's real. She did love Hector at one time, but now she loves her husband and her family. He notes:15. Nostalgia is not what it used to be.During Coreman's lecture, he points out that people shouldn't be concerned with the pursuit of happiness, but with the happiness of pursuit. Afterwards, Agnes and Hector go to Coreman's lab and check out a project he's working on that will visually show, in real time, the brain and how it reacts to different emotions.Agnes is instructed to go into a room and think about three things, times when she was happy, sad and scared. She does and through his brain scanning technology, Coreman was able to tell which order she thought about the three emotions. Hector is next.He thinks about Clara marrying someone else. He thinks about his time being kidnapped and about Ying Li. His emotions are very blocked. Its hard to get a reading. Clara calls and Hector asks that Coreman give him a moment. His brain is still being monitored through the phone conversation.Clara tells Hector she wants to be a mother, not just his mother. Hector says he's sorry for not explaining his trip and tells her that he learned a lot and the most unhappy thing he could imagine would be to lose her and the happiest thing possible would be to become the man she would want to spend the rest of her life with.Hectors brain is no longer blocked, all the colors start firing because that's what happiness is. It's everything. We flash to the colored flags the monks were dancing around. They're just like the colors flashing in Hector's head.Hector rushes home and marries Clara.

You know? Sometimes the mind can hurt as much as the body, or even worse. How can we take care of my mind? Perhaps this is more important than taking care of our body. What technique can we use to heal the mind?Besides religion, family, and friends, perhaps psychiatrist is another option. They just need to simply listen, then it would help. However, there is only one person can take care of your mind. That is just yourself.Take care your mind, my friend.

赫克托是一名精神病医生。

每天面对神经质，神经官能症，精神病患者。

作为医生掌握各种心理工具，熟悉各种人格模式，但具有讽刺意味是，赫克托却无法知晓什么是幸福？

如何找到幸福？

心灵的地图既是一场旅行寻访也是一次心路历程。

自我意识是建立在认知功能和防御机制之上的。

童年的模式带到成年的生活，一次次重复同样的模式。

人格正是使我们远离本性，失去感受内心力量的阻碍。

赫克托每一次的记录都是认知的提升和防御的突破。

当感受到本性，活出真我时，实现了真正的蜕变。

极地之光，存在之光，智慧之光照进了现实。

抛弃那些让人自私自利活下去的理由，直面生活，勇敢去爱，这就是幸福。

这样的幸福就在当下，寻找的途径就在于不断超越人格，索取我们与生俱来的权利。

这个世界上又有各式各样的低谷，你的低谷他的低谷，她的低谷。

由于经验背景不同，在经历低谷时带给人们不同的情绪与感受。

这部电影中借男主很俗气的“寻找幸福之旅”，为人们展示了幸福的不同形态。

最后男主深入自己内心深处，挖掘内心的阴影，最后走出阴霾。

这种类型的温情电影并不适合每一个人。

当你的生活已经如鱼得水，或许这部电影只是茶余饭后的小点心。

但是当你真的快乐不起来的时候，前提是你确实想变得快乐。

（心理医生也治不了不想变好的你）那么这部电影就是你的救星。

男主很抑郁，但电影基调又没那么抑郁，满满铺开的阳光风景中穿插着隐喻、伏笔与不同人理解的不同的幸福。

另外，男主在中国被高级妓女伤了心后，去往西藏，沿途的配乐非常棒！！！！

这部电影的配乐由Dan Mangan和Jesse Zubot完成。

非常喜欢Dan Mangan的曲子！！！

他的声音可以忧郁又不缺阳光，沙哑得恰到好处。

我对于电影的音乐总是特别感兴趣，只要听到喜欢的就会收藏！

总之，很适合正在走出低谷的我。

还会再看一遍。

“这是一部鸡汤电影”的影迷真的太棒了，电影给你灌了各种成功之道，让你在敲击键盘的时候更加流畅，完全不用大脑思考。

幸福也不是钻牛角尖，还被大多数人同意，自我感觉良好！

这部电影只有6.9分的原因有一半是认为这电影辱华，有西藏的僧侣。

另一半则是强行不好看的人。

整部电影的元素内核很多，即使只有两个小时的时间，但我感觉自己看了很多部电影，大概是自己大脑的疯狂的幻想吧。

这部电影的主题是最后赫克托与藏僧说的那句，每个人都有义务寻找自己的幸福。

这句话鸡汤吗？

我没觉得这是鸡汤，我认为的鸡汤是告诉你该如何去做，才能取得像灌你鸡汤的人一样成功。

刻板印象这东西谁都会有，毕竟谁也不是白莲花，一切平等。

中国的电影拍国外的场景是真的还原国外的现状？

不见得吧。

嗷，外国提到了中国，自己就不爽了？

看个电影，能让一群愤青群起而攻之。

太可怕了。

啊？

为什么偏远地区的乡下人会说英语？

我建议你这个城里人好好学习，不要觉得自己不行，其他人一定不行。

这种牛角尖有什么意义呢？

嗷，这个电影有中国片段，那这个片段必须说中文！

傻不傻？

最后我给这部电影五星是因为笑点足，西蒙全身都是笑点，有英国的黑色幽默。

电影本身深度很深，耐人寻味。

告诉了很多人对幸福的看法，所以我们自己也得需要自己独一无二的幸福！

整部片子就是英式喜剧的风格，荒诞的喜剧包袱，精彩的配乐，演员到位的演出，主题上又有点哲学问题的意味，寻找快乐，结尾处男主与女主的那通激烈的电话，也是点题了，男主找到了自己的快乐。

说这片是鸡汤，有失偏颇，非要定性的话，这是部喜剧片。

当然不要随便给人或物定性，每个人都有自己对影片的解读。

是部好看的片，推荐，好过80%的喜剧片/

今天在CHC上看了这部电影，还是很有感受的，与最近热播的《如果岁月可回头》有共同之处。

一个精神科医生想寻找他认为的幸福，到中国、非洲、美国……当他在旅途中经历了一系列遭遇后，可知道对于自己来说，什么是真正的幸福。
