The film won the Best Picture Award at the 49th Cannes Film Festival. Watched Mike Lee's fourth film ("Meanwhile", "Nothing", "Life is Sweet", "Secrets and Lies"). Looking at it this way, I already like the master's story style very much. If I rank it in my heart, I would like to have nothing, secrets and lies, and life is sweet. Compatible with the master director, are the actors in these films, with their elegant and restrained British demeanor, plain and indifferent life emotions,...

I didn't ask you to give birth to me, and
I don't want to conceive you , so
you should think twice about taking off your underwear!
In the 15th minute, when the photographer came home, his wife was using a vacuum cleaner and then made a fuss and lost her temper unreasonably. . disgusting woman. . .
After 30 minutes of basically understanding the tone, I basically kept laughing all the time in the
film, the harder I cry, the harder I laugh. . The expressions and...

An ode to the suffering of people.
Mike Leigh, have your tears been flickering during the filming of the film? This moving ode, it slowly flows into my heart, like a trickle in the desert, giving me a long-lost warmth .
I really want to say something to you, I really want to know what you have gone through, I really want to touch your face, I really want to use my heart to gently wipe your wet tears.
You are a poet, expressing people in distress with compassion, expressing their sadness, expressing their loneliness,...

"Secrets and Lies" is a movie directed by British director Mike Lee in 1996. The film won the 49th Cannes Palme d'Or and the Best Actress Award.
It is worth mentioning that the film has no script. The director just called each actor over and told them the characters’ experiences and emotions. The rest of the lines were improvised by the actors. And the secrets and lies of the film are...

A tearjerker, maybe too much too obvious, narrative is also not loose enough, not my favorite Leigh, but some scenes are so good that it's inconceivable anyone else could've done it besides Mike...

The final party was handled so well that I was still embarrassed for the female assistant when I watched it, but when she cried and said she wanted a father like Moris, it didn't feel superfluous at all. The dialogue is wonderful, especially the outburst of Moris at the end and the dialogue between the two sisters at the end. This is...

The story of dog blood was wrapped up by Mike Lee especially warmly. But this film just infected me, but didn't touch me. The emotions piled up slowly and then concentratedly erupted and finally returned to plainness. It was to put trust in the most important position in the family. For a bystander, witnessing A family quarrel was embarrassing and touching, so when Morris's assistant finally said that sentence full of comedy, he still felt that the point of the film was too...

Maurice: Lovely!
Monica Purley: Since when was Hoovering a spectator sport?
Monica Purley: I'm having milk. Not in a wine glass. Give me a highball. You don't put milk in a wine glass.
