      Wrinkles are not just wrinkles, they are the stories of time, including birth, old age, sickness and death.

      This is a Spanish cartoon about an old man with Alzheimer's disease getting sicker, and what happened in a nursing home with a group of old people who also suffer from the same disease. There are many details in the film that the old man recalls the past from the present. In this contrast between youth and old age, the old man used to be a very successful person, working in a bank and swimming occasionally when he was young.

      But there...

      There's always something we can't escape

      Many times, disease is like wrinkles in old age, and it is inevitable. Miguel always fools old people with confused memories to show his cleverness, because in his opinion, he won't get this disgusting disease, and he will never go to the top floor with a group of people who can't take care of themselves. people live together. In fact, this also happened to explain his fear, fear of becoming like them, so he tried his best to prove the difference between himself and them. He has a box full...

      old age

      After watching the movie, my thoughts are chaotic, my emotions are chaotic, and my heartbeat is chaotic.

      How do we grow old, Miguel said to Emilio: Either continue to fantasize about being able to swim in spring, or face reality. Emilio in the early stage of Alzheimer's did not believe in evil. He told Miguel with actions and words, I like swimming, I want to go swimming, I go swimming, maybe a year later I don't remember who I am, but now I am alive. . The...

      ending song

      Since my mother began to forget things, like the woman played by Gong Li in "The Return", she often loses things. I started to fear. Mom is such an optimistic, positive and beautiful person! At the end of the film, an old woman sang a song in Spanish. I think of the grandma who sang Su Wu Shepherd with me. I don't understand the lyrics, but I understand the full meaning of this song's existence. When he is dying, the song must be the most beautiful memory in his/her life. Life itself is...

      Recommended to see

      From the name, you know that this film is related to the elderly, revealing a microcosm of the life of a certain part of the elderly in Spain. The protagonist of the story, Emilio, was the president of a community bank branch. Although he was not a particularly successful career when he was young, he was a leader anyway. After getting old, his memory gradually declines, and he often regards his son and daughter-in-law as customers who come to the bank for loans. From this, it can be seen...

      The story of nowhere for the old, the nursing home seems to be the nightmare of all the old people in this type of movie. "Arrugas" gives hope and despair coexist. After watching it, I immediately called the old man at home and learned that my grandmother's old neighbor has Alzheimer's disease I went to the hospital, alas, in today's society, everyone is too busy to take care of themselves, what to do when people get...

      In old age, no matter whether it is deceit or honesty, it will be good if it can bring happiness. We came into this world without remembering anything, and when we get old, we don’t remember anything when we leave this...

    Evaluation action

    In the film "Arrugas", the audience can see the compromise and powerlessness of people in the face of old age, which has become the most tender and realistic theme of the film. Even if he is blind and deaf, he will not forget to make a harmless joke with the beautiful rehabilitation coach. Inconvenience has become the best excuse for mischief. In the face of the indifference of reality, the old people use the scoundrel of children to...
