      Little Children--No Permanent Adult

      I didn't pay attention to the English name before watching it. The Chinese translation is called "being a mother." I thought it was about a mother's love. Adults like children. The strange thing is that all the protagonists in the film have more or less their own shadows on their bodies and experiences. At the end of the film, all the "children" have grown up after experiencing their own...

      What does it feel like to grow up

      It's been a long time since I watched a movie, so when I saw that post, I decided I had to watch a movie this week.

      I watch a lot of movie recommendations every day, I think this one, it must be Kate Winslet and this story that attracts me. Whether it's Titanic, or Revolutionary Road, or the Reader. She always left me with the impression that all the characters she is creating are all women who face the inner truth, and whose vitality seems to be restrained...

      Is there anyone obliged to redeem yourself

      I think little children are better than being a mother. The reason why it translates to being a mother is that after all, it is an attempt to put mothers and mothers in the position that they are obliged to redeem their children. It can be said that this kind of coercion will eventually lead to a lot of unnatural burdens. Because not many mothers have the epiphany as the few in the film.

      Rather than redemption, it is better to speak of preservation, rather...

      little childern

      The more I saw the back, the more depressed sarah and brad were unwilling to live a dull life. They both cheated for their own desires, but when they finally agreed to run away together, both of them packed their luggage. Sarah changed her mind because of fear and confusion about the future. When I brought my daughter home, Brad was actually attracted by the skateboard. After he fell heavily on the skateboard, he also chose to return to his wife and children. It can be seen that the...

      It's better not to be empty inside

      A movie with a surprise ending. Each character is set as the weakest, helpless person in modern society. An intellectual woman full of passion and nowhere to vent; a family husband and a man with sports dreams; a natural pedophile, a sex offender, and a mess of mud; The cowardly housewife of "The Ball Prince". Everyone is very empty inside, especially the suspended police officers do nothing wrong every day. It is the most classic to bully sex offenders to "punish evil and promote good"....

      From the beginning to the end, it is not a literary film but an ethical film. So you must not be a housewife, you must have something to do! ! Including men. What does the other line mean? Just want to give the male and female lead a reason not to elope or is family...

      In the last 15 minutes, the emotions have been squeezed to the point of exploding, just waiting for the blood to splash into the sky, the tragedy in the world, the loss of life, who knows, who knows, who knows, but gently put it down and a happy ending! So convinced! ! ! Everyone got what they thought was right and returned to a peaceful life... It seems that the boredom, boredom and boredom that puzzled their emotions before all disappeared in a second! How ridiculous! A child indeed! The...

Compared with the other three noisy and chattering women, Sarah Pierce looks much quieter, watching her daughter, she seems to be lost in boundless contemplation. At this time, a handsome young father, Brad Adamson, appeared in the square, who was very well-known among young...

    Background creation

    Field saw a novel named "Little Children" by Tom Perrotta from the desk of a friend of the author in 2003. When Field saw it, the novel had not yet been officially released. After reading this novel, Field felt extremely excited, because he did not expect that what he had accidentally discovered was a story so similar to " Road to Glory ", but the authors of the two novels have a strong sense of handling the feelings of the characters....

    Evaluation action

    "Little Children" is not so much an intricate love-hate drama between two couples entering a period of marital burnout, as it is a specific and subtle insight into and display of the living conditions of ordinary people. Director Todd Field, in a difficult decision that almost stopped his heart, always focused on the crowd that was agitated and out of control, and watched calmly and not without compassion. And the visual enjoyment...

    Movie quotes

    • May McGorvey: You're a miracle, Ronnie. We're all miracles. Know why? Because as humans, every day we go about our business, and all that time we know... we all know... that the things we love... the people we love, at any time now can all be taken away. We live knowing that and we keep going anyway. Animals don't do that.

    • Ronald James McGorvey: I just wanted to cool off!

    • Narrator: Sexual tension is an elusive thing, but Kathy had pretty good radar for it. It was like someone had turned a knob to the right, and the radio station clicked in so loud and clear it almost knocked her over. Once she became aware of the connection between them, it seemed impossible that she'd missed it before.
