I haven't read the original book, but Homer has always been calm, quiet and loving, and understands the feelings of the people around him. He is a very spiritual child. At first I didn't understand why Homer wouldn't accept abortions for women.
During the period, I saw the expressions of the children in the orphanage when they saw the couple who came to adopt the child, trying their best to behave properly, smiling with teeth, tidying up their hats and jackets... from the bottom of my heart.
In pursuit of the meaning of life, Homer left the orphanage and went to the cider house, where he grew from a child to an adult.
As the plot of the movie slowly rose, I saw Homer experience the various tastes of life, to feel and taste the red dust.
He has always denied that he is a doctor and hid surgical tools under the bed, but later because of the misfortune of the black girl, he took out the scalpel and performed the first abortion. When he experienced it, he understood why Dr. Larch agreed to have an abortion, and finally understood Dr. Larch's heart.
Dr. Larch is the most moving character in the film, he is emotional, intelligent, and wise. He loves Homer and is convinced that Homer is his successor. He is right.
On the whole, the movie plays a role in cleansing the soul and recalling the kindness and warmth of people.
I recommend everyone to watch this popular movie.
