Hector and the Search for Happiness

It seems to be an adult fairy tale. Hector is a young psychiatrist who is worried that despite his advice and medicine he can not satisfy the patient. He decided to travel around the world to China, Africa, and the United States to understand what makes people happy or unhappy. If there is a secret, he decides to find it.

Even though it started from the "past era" as if it were a child's picture book, this book has a simple and fickle format. The hero was written as a part of a savvy intellectualist and an innocent little boy. For example, there are frequent narrations in parentheses (Hector is clever, but it is not always clever). These are often obvious, without mentioning a specific philosophy, nationality, and religion.

Hector wrote an impression on his notebook. He knows that you have to be careful as you ask directly whether they are happy, because this often makes men laugh and makes women cry. He met some people, including monks from Chinese monasteries, and he wondered why many Westerners were interested in his religion. Finally, Hector's findings were summarized by famous happiness experts in the "country with the most psychiatrists" and he told that he was able to discover some of the most popular on travels . Try putting them in the indicator, then the expression

It is an easy-to-read companion of all non-fictional happiness texts, but I soon got tired of the feminine tendency of Hector and the way it was drawn luxurious as his funny little weakness. He repeatedly deceived his long-standing partner Clara on the street and continued to think that his custom of "doing this if you feel better" may bring happiness to others and to himself. This is not a good habit. It is written as if he were a little boy who wants to taste different sweets, and he is messing up people's lives. It's kind of cute and it looks superficial on the surface.

Of course, those figurines and novels must be designed to work carefully. This is another theme. It is struck by our face every minute, and it is not always elegant. It's ambiguous, I do not think it is something like "Little Prince" or "Alchemist."

On Saturday night, my wife, Mimi, opened a Netflix movie called Hector and Looking for Happiness. The film follows the hero of the hero and is studying the happiness of his journey throughout the world. In the climax of the movie, Hector asked me to relive the saddest, scared and happy time in my life. I have no intention of giving up on the movie any more, but I really am fond of working with colleagues, so I am sad. From product, engineering, operation, law, sales, and marketing. I am very angry because we are no longer able to develop magic products built from scratch and we currently invest millions of dollars of advertising costs from top advertisers.

Hector and "Looking for Happiness" found a roughly mixed negative comment. According to 83 reviews of Rotten Tomatoes, the score of the review is 36%, the average rating is 4.6 / 10. Consensus said, "Simon Peg is still attractive as usual, but seeking Hector and happiness overwhelmed his charm in Schmalz," consensus shows. 29 points (out of 100 points) indicating "universally unfavorable comment"

But is everything related to happiness? I started to ask this question for 2014 movies "Hector" and "Pursuing Happiness". It is a story of a psychiatrist who lives in a highly patterned normative life and suddenly makes people happy. I am interested in things. Hector's reality is a painful and universal reality. Most of us are living a perfect life, but this long-lasting and consistent life does not bring happiness to us. So Hector decided to break his relationship with London and then decided to leave for a trip to China, Africa and Los Angeles where he is seeking lighting, adventure and lost love
