In the 1950s, the Irish folklore was conservative. Filomena, who was unmarried and pregnant, was swept out by her father and stayed in a monastery. The nun sold her illegitimate son Anthony to the Americans for £1,000. Fifty years later, the retired nurse Philomena and the unilaterally dismissed BBC reporter Martin went to the United States to find a child and found that the monastery was hiding a greater evil. The Bible teaches: "A person with knowledge is not easy to get angry; forgiving people's faults is their own glory." Philomena finally chose to forgive.
The atheist Martin represents the human perspective. The nun trafficking in children has already made him intolerable. It is too disgusting and unforgivable that the pain of separation between the flesh and the flesh is extended to the cemetery needlessly. I will forgive you.” Even Judy Dench finds it difficult to identify with his role: “In her environment, she can forgive each other. I can’t imagine that kind of situation.”
As if God overlooked Philo on earth. Mena, is she deceiving herself or suffering from Stockholm syndrome?
The memory of the monastery to Philomena is by no means as simple as good or bad, black and white. If life fails you, do you still have the ability to love? Not every time someone is in pain, someone will pay for you: getting pregnant without marriage is a shame for the entire family. If it weren’t for the monastery’s accommodation on the condition of four years of unpaid labor, the homeless Philomena would definitely live on the streets; nuns are not all demons. , Philomena's only small photo of Anthony, from the Brownie camera borrowed by the kind little nun.
The spring night is worth a thousand dollars, and Philomena looks back on the past without any regrets: "I committed a felony, and what's more terrifying is that I still enjoy it. Sex is so wonderful, it's ecstatic. He is very handsome and hugs me. In my arms, I don't even know that I still have a clitoris." Her frankness gave Martin the Antichrist leeway, and it was with this amazing frankness that she could face the suffering and grace of life.
Mother and child unite heart. If Anthony has no nostalgia for his homeland and relatives, and he doesn't know how to play the harp, how can he wear an Irish harp badge? Philomena was ecstatic to learn that Aiko had achieved academic success in the United States and that he was the chief legal counsel to President Reagan of the United States. You know, under the label of an illegitimate child in Ireland, Anthony could not achieve such an achievement. The old Irish lady's nagging, kindness, frankness, surprise, panic, and compassion were performed very well by Judy Dench. Finding that Martin and Anthony (Michael Hess) had a fate, Philomena, who was surging, grasped the hand that had been in close contact with her beloved son, as if grasping everything she had missed: "He is very smart, There was a strong handshake, what else? What did he say?"
It was not entirely because of the jet lag and whim of Philomena that disturbed Martin’s dreams in the middle of the night. I just wanted to tell you, thank you for coming to the United States with me to find a son. I know you lost your job and their loss is my gain."
Martin, who claims to have been treated unreasonably, is full of complaints about the outside world and can't wait to thank everyone. Philomena was somewhat funny in his eyes: "I finally understand how influential Reader's Digest, Daily Mail, and popular fiction are. Philomena has been grateful to the hotel staff, she must think They are all volunteers.” The
film is based on Martin's 2009 biography "The Lost Child of Philomena". There is enough evidence to support Philomena's forgiveness. Her world is far from heaven but it is worthy of reconciliation. And Martin’s never forgiveness also has good reasons; life itself is full of variables, and a good movie cannot and should not give a standard answer. Regardless of the fact that Blanchett won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress with a smooth sail, due to the film’s own quality and structure, the Oscar’s attribution of the Best Actress is likely to prove once again the old saying that Jiang is still hot.
