    B. We all have the right to choose not to reconcile with the past, and have the right to sink all the time, but we should not live up to the waiting of those who truly love you. This is the compromise that life has to experience. People are not sages, and who can truly mature to the point of being invincible to all kinds of poisons, it’s just that the scars slowly fade and are forgotten, but the scars will always be there, always an invisible sting. We are all ordinary people, but each of us...

    Robert Redford handled the story in a restrained and repressive way, but instead made the dialogue between the father and son at the end extraordinarily moving. Although there is nothing particularly dramatic in the plot, some fragments of life seem very real, but the encounter of the male protagonist It's too "rich". After being continuously hit by fate, I can finally let go, and I can get out of anxiety and depression, and I can even see a glimmer of hope. This is a bit...

    90/100 This film is to peel away the layers of ordinary people's lives, and let people realize that the essential motivations originally buried under our human words and actions are far from being as simple, clear and reasonable as we imagined. A son who lacks love and needs attention meets a mother who is also difficult to care because of lack of love. Fortunately, he finally found a good replacement and a good father who understands...

    The film "Ordinary People", as its name suggests, tells the story of an ordinary family. The elder brother died in an accident, and the mother who felt sorry for the elder brother vented all her emotions on the younger brother. In the face of this tragedy that no one wanted to happen, the younger...
