There are endless things to buy every day, but when you open your wallet and look at the other people who are glamorous, you will be overwhelmed by the feeling of "no money" in an instant.
If you are often engulfed by the black hole of shopping desire, then before you lose your mind, let's watch a good movie first, recommend 5 of my list of films to eliminate shopping desire, and life will be better after watching it.
01.《Small Forest》
Ichiko (played by Ai Hashimoto), who grew up in the countryside, moved to the city with her boyfriend when she grew up, but because she was not used to the pace of the city, she decided to go back to Komori, a small village in the northeast far away from the city, to live a self-sufficient life, and to live a self-sufficient life.
"Little Forest" is divided into four parts according to the seasons, "Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter", and every scene of the film is beautifully and warmly shot, planting tomatoes, picking fruits, making jam, and rolling soba noodles.
There is no gorgeous packaging, but it makes people feel warm and yearning. A simple meal, a simple sunrise to feel happy, there is no need to shop.
02. "Confessions of a Shopaholic"
The quirky Rebecca, like many New York girls, doesn't just play but buy. She dreamed of working in a fashion magazine, but by mistake, she entered a financial magazine as a columnist.
While teaching people how to manage money, she grabbed her high heels and went to checkout, but the bills were piled up but couldn't be paid, Rebecca chose to deceive herself and turn a blind eye, although she tried to quit her shopping addiction but failed, and saw that her life was about to be ruined by her beloved boutique, what should she do?
In a comedic way, the film shows the tragic situation of modern people besieged by shopping desires, and this movie is still 15 years old, and it still makes people feel uneasy to watch. The pleasure of buying things is really limited to the moment of swiping the card, and the subsequent pain and end, Rebecca has personally demonstrated to you.
03. "Eun-joo's Room"
Eun Zhu is an ordinary office worker, because he was tired of the hard work life, he simply resigned decisively, and after becoming a case taker, he started to stay at home every day, because a friend helped install a lamp, because fate would begin to decorate the rental house, and gradually find himself who was erased by the workplace in the process of decoration, and silently feel happy from it.
Eunzhu, on behalf of thousands of women in this society who are as ordinary as us, can make people feel happy not only with money, but also from changing the home environment, while looking at the heart is also warm, free from the material black hole.
In fact, happiness is not really far away, it only takes a little difference to make the gray daily shine again.
04. "Heart-pounding Life Finishing Magic"
Marie Kondo, a Japanese finishing expert, proposed a heart-pounding finishing method, only items that can make your heart flutter can be left; If you can't, thank the item for your contribution and say goodbye.
Marie Kondo was specially invited to produce an 8-episode reality show together, visiting a family in each episode and instructing them to tidy up their rooms with heart-pounding rules.
"The Magic of Tidying Up Your Life" has books and TV series, but the reality show brings more stamina.
Every item must be bought now, and if you want it, what about three years, five years, or ten years? Would you still want it?
While watching, slap yourself in the face with these real questions, instead of spending money on waste, it is better to have a good meal.
05. "My Home Is Empty"
Since childhood, he has always made a mess of the room and is too lazy to tidy up the dance (played by Xia Fan), who once fell out of love and planned to hang himself, so he began to become a heartbroken man, taking losing things as the greatest pleasure, and being proud of the title of throwing things perverted.
Later, due to the disaster, I had to live with my mother and grandmother, and after a series of frictions and disputes over the loss of things, I quietly changed the tight family relationship, and in the face of my grandmother who died of illness, this time I did not discuss what to lose, but what relics to leave to each other.
This is a very interesting drama, with exaggerated discarded paranoia, which strongly highlights the state of people being dominated by the desire to shop.
In fact, people's material needs can be extremely simple, too many must and needs, are derived from business marketing and self-persuasion, when you don't need anything, not only the space widens, but also the heart will be opened up at the same time.
