The first half of the film is peaceful and slow. It feels like watching the ordinary life of a small person. How Gilbert takes care of his younger brother, how to accommodate his fat mother, and how to discipline his ignorant sister.
In fact, I was really desperate for Gilbert. When I watched it, I kept thinking, what would I do if I were him. I think I'll leave them behind. Sure enough, later he ran away from home and wanted to leave. I hope he doesn't go back. but none. Although he is very hard, he loves this family in his heart, and all his wishes are for this family.
But I don't agree, saying that he met a girl with a cheerful personality, and it changed, how, how. In the end, if his mother hadn't died, Gilbert wouldn't have burned the house and left town with his younger brother. So it was the death of his mother that gave Gilbert a relief and gave him a different sky.
