    Mei Gu is really good at acting. Marriage allows us to make concessions, and what we thought was absolutely impossible when we were young, after the tempering of life, will also make us accept it in one way or...

    When the very emaciated mother said to her daughter at the end of the play, it may have revealed the most pitiful truth in many women's lives. Patience, two people together, only constant compromise can maintain integrity. . . . . . . ....

    I was a little sad when I saw the end, "I have never missed anyone so much." From the beginning of alienation and indifference to the last understanding and longing. The father's sadness in the bar and the phrase "You are my one true thing." are also heart-wrenching. The story is plain and simple. It is this point that strikes my heart every time. Not all families will always be warm and sunny, but I believe that deep down, everyone still loves each other...

    Mother: This is my home, you guys are my favorite people, the kids think I'm doing things that drive them crazy (because the kids get bored doing them), but I'm committed to it because I love you. A long-winded family relationship, along with my mother getting cancer, my father having an affair, I was called home and lost my job, even if I understand how precious it is for someone to love me, it is great to be proud of it at this age. It’s not necessary, and I won’t choose to stay at home...

    i don't wanna live like this. Growing up is also finding the subversion of previous concepts in daily life and finding the strongest and brave mother. btw, still angry at my father's cowardice and...

    Alas, why I didn't get the point, I can't understand whether the father is responsible for the relationship or not. The workaholic daughter gave up work and went home to accompany the sick mother. There was no moving point in the whole process. The mother chose to forbear or maintain the superficial relationship. Sacrificing myself and showing great love didn't particularly impress me. I can't agree with such a high rating, am I...

    Absolutely good movie. There are not so many mysteries, complex and delicate voids and doubts, but the cutting into life is very deep and true. Only by experiencing such a real life in person can we empathize to the deepest depths together. The relationship with the family of origin has never been an easy topic, for everyone. How can it be so easy to build a family together hand in hand? My one true friend, marriage is the most beautiful situation in the family. Meryl Streep's performance is...
