      The film tells the story of a brother and sister. A brother and sister whose parents died in a car accident when they were children.

      Please stay close to me - an unexpected surprise!

      It has a 95% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I can't believe it at first sight. Is there really such a high number. Independently produced in 2000, the Chinese translation is "I am at ease when you do things" (makes people hit the wall), and there is another called "Integrity is priceless", Taiwanese translation "Please lean on me again" (a little better, but I can't figure it out) .

      Don't worry about me

      written Roger Ebert

      November 17, 2000

      Sammy is a divorced mother with an 8-year-old son. Work as a small loan clerk in a bank to make a living. She's been dating Bob recently, what kind of person is Bob? Very boring person who doesn't excite Sammy or eat the vinegar of her new boss.

      Terry is her cheap brother. The character is charming, loving and maddening, but not too much.

      The title of the film is "You Can Count On Me", or, eerily, "Don't worry about me doing...

      He is not my father!

      Although Terry is gone, little Rudy has already seen clearly what the so-called "biological father" is in his heart.

      This bastard said in front of the police: "I'm not his dad"

      Who would want to go to jail, but what he did was to plant a seed in the heart of an 8-year-old child. Terry and Rudy's work and fishing life brought him the missing fatherly love and taught him to distinguish right from wrong. Men's teachings are completely different from women's. I'm glad that Rudy has...

      a little sigh

      When Sammy was about to send Terry away, the two of them chatted abruptly with some irrelevant words, and sometimes sat silently, at a loss, clumsily trying to ease the awkward atmosphere, but finally more at a loss. It is not perfunctory to say the words left behind, but I know in my heart that I always have to leave, there will always be a different life, no matter how much reluctance, even if there is no long-term direction, but who is not. The unspeakable emotions finally turned into tears...

      Everything is back to where it started. Big Love! Big Love! Plain narration, delicate and sincere feelings, and true expression. The cinematography is good, the script is brilliant, and the soundtrack is profound. Finally, Laura deserves to be my favorite actress, everything about you is so...

    Movie plot

    Terry ( Mark Alan Ruffalo ) has been living a wandering life since both parents died in an accident. He is impetuous and unruly, but he is full of confidence in the future. He always insists that he will not be ordinary forever, but the people who understand him have not yet appeared. But his cynical demeanor is suspect. When Terry stumbled across a girlfriend on a Massachusetts bus, he moved to upstate New York, hoping to make more...

    Evaluation action

    The film is full of humorous charm, and the performance is powerful. The characters are real and credible, and they are as kind as old friends who I see every day. The director did not let the film flow too much sentimentality and affectation, and the whole film has always maintained a The tone is light, the plot is natural and smooth, and it is pleasant. Laura Linney portrays Sammy's self-restraint to the core, making her embrace of...

    Movie quotes

    • Terry: Where were you?

      Sammy: Nowhere. I had dinner with my boss.

      Terry: Kind of a late dinner, ain't it?

      Sammy: Yeah. How was Rudy?

      Terry: Fine. He's asleep.

      Sammy: Did the plumber come?

      Terry: Yeah, the fucking plumber came!

      Sammy: Terry, just give me a break!

      Terry: What's the matter with you?

      Sammy: Nothing, I'm just tired.

      Terry: Wanna smoke some pot?

      Sammy: No I don't... why, you got some?

    • Ron: You know, Terry, a lot of people come to see me with all kinds of problems. Drugs, alcohol, marital problems, sexual problems, health problems

      Terry: Great job you got.

      Ron: Well... I like it. Because even in this little town, I feel like what I do is very connected with the real center of people's lives. I'm not saying I'm always Mr. Effective, but I don't feel like my life is off to the side of what's important. You know? I don't feel my happiness and comfort are based on closing my eyes to trouble within myself or trouble in other people. I don't feel like a negligible little scrap, floating around in some kind of empty void, with no sense of connectedness to anything around me except by virtue of whatever little philosophies I can scrape together on my own...

      Terry: Well

      Ron: Can I ask you, Terry: Do you think your life is important?

      Terry: You mean - Like, me personally, my individual life?

      Ron: Yeah.

      Terry: Well... I'm not sure - What do you mean? It's important to me. I guess. And like, to my, you know, the people who care about me...

      Ron: But do you think it's important?

      Terry: I -

      Ron: Do you think it's important in the scheme of things? Not just because it's yours, or because you're somebody's brother. Because I don't really get the impression that you do.

      Terry: Well, I don't think... I don't particularly think anybody's life has any particular importance besides whatever - you know - whatever we arbitrarily give it. Which is fine. I mean we might as well... I think I'm as important as anybody else...

      Terry: I don't know: A lot of what you're saying has a real appeal to me, Ron. A lot of the stuff they told us when we were kids... But I don't want to believe something or not believe it because I might feel bad. I want to believe it because I think it's true or not... I'd like to think that my life is important... Or that it's connected to something important...

      Ron: Well, isn't there any way for you to believe that without calling it God, or religion, or whatever term it is you object to?

      Terry: Yes. I believe that.

    • Sammy: I don't know what the church's official position is on fornication and adultery these days, and I felt really hypocritical not saying anything to you about it before, but... what *is* the official position these days?

      Ron: Well... it's a sin.

      Sammy: Good, I think it should be!

      Ron: But we try not to focus on that aspect right off the bat.

      Sammy: Why not? I think you should.

      Ron: Well...

      Sammy: Maybe it was better when they screamed at you from the box for having sex with your married boss, they told you what a terrible thing it was, they were really mean to you. Maybe it would be better if you just told me that I'm endangering my immortal soul and that if I don't stop, I'm gonna burn in hell. Don't you ever think that?

      Ron: No, not really.
