The next day, when Liszt arrived at Philip's house, he got the answer he wanted: Philip decided to keep him and make him his caretaker.

This answer is not unexpected. After that interview scene, everyone can see that Philip has a good eye for him, and it is completely reasonable for him to get this job.

Soon the butler showed Liszt his house, and Liszt was astonished to see the room that Philippe had prepared for him: he had his own special room, his own bathroom, and the elaborate decorations and objects here were quite different compared to his price.

The lives of the rich and the poor are two completely different worlds, and working as a caregiver here is many times better than working in the black man's own home.

These things seem to remind people once again of the gap between these two people. The disparity in identity and status between the two of them was extremely great, and even if Liszt was here, he was just a nurse.

How did his relationship with white people develop? That's what people are looking forward to. Blacks settled here. The story is starting to get on track.

It's strange to have a black man living in such a big house. This was also the consensus of everyone at the beginning.

The maid looked at the black man's room and turned into a pig's nest in a few days, and when she found the knife in the black man's bag, the maid was also scared and uneasy. The black man's work and study are not smooth, and he always makes some unnecessary mistakes at work, which also makes others look at him with suspicion.

Can such a person really be a good caregiver? A lot of people are skeptical.

Only the old rich man is very insistent on this.

"I chose him because he wouldn't sympathize with me." When the maid mentioned this, Philip's eyes, which had been half-closed, suddenly opened, and the light in his eyes was very sharp, "I need it." Not sympathy! I'm not a trash, don't treat me like a trash! ”

Philip's anger was fueled by the sympathy of those people. He was disabled, but he didn't become decadent because of it. He is still a mature person with his own judgment and his own ideas.

This is also reflected in the later plots.

Immediately, after the occupancy, the movie began to pay attention to their daily lives. Trivial matters run through their lives, and these trivial affairs. That is the soil in which their friendship germinates.

And the foundation of this friendship is, of course, two hearts.

Although Philip was crippled, he was never a boring and boring person. Although his body was basically unable to move, his heart did not die because of it.

When Liszt mistakenly mistook the foot cream for shampoo and applied it to his head and complained that it did not foam, he would mockingly say that his feet had never been so well groomed; When Liszt thought that stockings were a woman's thing, he reluctantly put them on for him. He would joke that Liszt's earrings were good-looking, and that he should try his hand at beauty; Even when Liszt found that his legs were not numerous. When he couldn't help but pour hot water on his legs for the test, he could also calmly ask if you had had enough.

It can be seen that this old man is not a good old man. When others make mistakes, he will still give ridicule and accusations very sharply. However, his taunts are also good. Whether it is a joke or not, it is all about Liszt's mistakes and lack of seriousness in his work, and he has never made any accusations against Liszt's identity.

Just as Liszt didn't particularly care if Philip was disabled, Philip didn't care if he was black.

He didn't care about Liszt's skin color, nor did he care about Liszt's black customs and culture, which was the most rare.

In the eyes of mainstream society, black culture is all associated with vulgarity and rudeness. Very few whites appreciate black culture, and even some wealthy blacks don't particularly like the customs and culture of blacks at the bottom. In their view, discriminating against black culture is not discrimination against black people, but for black people, it is also an insult in itself.

But after being disabled, Philip is different from others, his psychology is much more sensitive than others, and he can skip those external rude behaviors and look directly at whether people's hearts are good.

Compared with the hypocritical and pretentious white culture, which is obviously discriminatory but has to be disguised as pity, he is more able to appreciate the culture of black people. Although Liszt was vulgar, rude, and sometimes vicious, he never hid his attitude, which was acceptable to Philip.

And after he accepts it, he will also find fun for himself in life.

In fact, Philip in the story was not an old-fashioned and boring person. Although he is a rich man, he also has a strong sense of adventure and a taste for life. His paralysis stems from the fact that he plays sports like skydiving, and he is a person who knows how to live.

A person who knows how to live will not laugh at other people's interest in life. Whether Liszt joked about wanting to build a special service profile, or he joked with Philip's unconscious legs, these were all things that Philip could forgive.

And this also made Liszt more and more open in front of him. After giving him another massage, he would make Philip clench his fist and then fist him; In Philip's pile of letters, he would take letters from women in some special service industry and joke with Philip; He would even try some over-the-top jokes, even though he knew it wasn't good.

After all, with such a tolerant friend, how could he not let go?

And what is even happier is that even if he can let go, he does not have a lot of incorrect pity for Philip. He resisted wearing stockings for Philip because he didn't think men should wear them; He jokes with Philip with the letter, because he also sees Philip as an ordinary man at this time, rather than a boss and a patient; And when he went out, he refused to use a special ambulance, because it seemed to him to be for animals, and not for people—and in these times he saw Philip as a man, a friend. A normal person with a slight problem, not a person who is already dead in the eyes of others and needs to be taken care of everywhere.

The mutual understanding between the two people is constantly heating up in day and night contact. The black man is not actually disabled in front of the white man, and the white man does not care about the seemingly vulgar culture of the black man. There is a good understanding between the two of them.

And subtly, they are also influencing each other.

At Philip's home, Liszt began to be exposed to knowledge that was previously impossible. Classical music, opera. Art appreciation, these things began to enter Liszt's life. Liszt could not fully comprehend these things, but this did not prevent him from understanding the beauty of these things little by little. He could laugh out loud when he watched a satirical opera, he was ready to imitate the art when he saw that it was valuable, and classical music was very good on the first day he stepped into Philip's house.

Elegant things, in fact, don't look so otherworldly. Even if it's an ordinary black caregiver. As long as you can appreciate the beauty, you can learn these things as well.

In the same way, Philip was also influenced by Liszt.

When someone else's car was parked in Philip's door, Liszt rushed up and pulled him out of the car. Philip will also sigh at the effectiveness of this and express his appreciation for the way black people have been handled; When Liszt suggested that Philip educate his daughter, Philip would follow the advice. disciplining his own daughter, and even listening to black people, his tone is very tough; Even. The most important thing is that when Philip corresponded with his female friend for half a year, and when he wrote various poems in the letter but did not dare to make further statements, Liszt also boldly suggested that he stop playing with these false things, send a photo over, and see what the other party's answer is.

Liszt influenced Philip with his attitude towards life, he broke the kind of suave but always revealed falsehood and disguise in Philip's original high life, and he used black straightforwardness, honesty, and even some rough ways to affect Philip's life, which made Philip's life very different from the past.

The next nearly 40 minutes of the movie revolves around the lives of these two people. Their daily life is interspersed with some banter, some humor, some ways of treating relatives and friends, and more importantly, the two of them influence each other and grow together.

They can even take care of each other's families. When Liszt's brother was arrested, he needed to go home to take care of him, and Philip would ask him how the family was doing. And Philip's daughter is not sensible enough, and Liszt will also express some opinions on this, as a reminder that other servants dare not do.

Such a thing is friendship.

Under Liszt's tutelage, they began to try something they had never tried before. Liszt would offer to bring a cigarette to Philip's mouth and let Philip try what it was like to smoke. When Philip was writing love letters, Liszt would constantly come up with bad ideas around him. Liszt would also drive Philip's Maserati and go out with Philip, or change the speed of Philip's wheelchair to take him for an alternative ride, or even take Philip to enjoy a massage.

These things are very different from Philip's life, which in his previous life did not exist.

These things, let the audience watch, and gradually have a little resonance.

In people's lives, there will always be such bad friends. These people will teach you to smoke, help you with chicks, take you for a ride, and do all sorts of things. They don't have any bad intentions, they do these things because they enjoy them, and they want others to enjoy them too. These are things that some people may seem to be absolutely unacceptable, but for friends, these are some rather happy memories.

Perhaps, a man like Liszt is not a good friend, but he is indeed a good friend. (To be continued......)
