to experience

This film deals with more than one aspect, about abortion, about love, and about responsibility.

Homer asks how Candy can always wait and see, but isn't Homer himself reckless when he falls in love? Mr. Rose is actually reckless when it comes to falling in love. Is Homer's behavior justifiable? Simply because there are no serious consequences.

Larch's persuasion did not make Homer go home, but Homer grew up step by step from his own experience, and had a deeper understanding of responsibility and emotion. I think Homer's initial distaste for abortion was due to its simplicity. Simplicity is not always good, so what we seek is not simplicity, but truth. But truth can only be pursued, not attained.

I feel like I don't see things deeply, so I accept all experiences, good and bad. Experience and think, you can grow, and you will not lose your time.

The second half of the plot is more compact and better than the first half, and almost all the parts that reflect the film's ideas are in the back.

    There is always a hot sun: good night, the prince of Maine, the king of New England. The music is beautiful.

    Grandpa Kane>< So, people, after a circle, will still return to the same place, but the change is only the state of mind. The soundtrack is top notch! !

The Cider House Rules quotes

  • [Homer reads the actual Cider House Rules to the illiterate workers]

    Peaches: What do they think, go up to the roof to sleep? They must think we're crazy. They think we're dumb niggers, so we need some dumb rules, is what they think.

    Rose Rose: That's it? It don't mean nothin' at all. And all this time I been wonderin' about 'em.

    Arthur Rose: They outrageous, them rules. Who live in this cider house? Who grindin' up those apples, pressin' that cider, cleanin' up all this mess? Who just plain live here, just breathin' in that vinegar? Well, someone who don't live here made those rules. Those rules ain't for us. We are supposed to make our own rules. And we do. Every single day.

  • Homer Wells: I'm not a doctor. I haven't been to medical school; I haven't even been to high school.
