I might be wrong about this movie.
A very quiet, very calm expression has always been on Homer's face. The author does not know if this name is a metaphor for our Odyssey-like long life, the way home?
An orphanage, a hospital that also has an abortion function, a desolate station where trains rarely stop, a group of isolated orphans and a doctor who exists like a god, the film's tone is dark, and the orphanage is cold white.
He has never been influenced by the outside world since he was a child. He is pure, honest, kind, and longs for the outside world. Even if he knows it is hurt, which young man is not like this.
The plot of reading a story to the children in the house is very warm. We may have been so innocent. How can we lose it? Must we take the loss of innocence as a rite of passage?

The Cider House Rules quotes

  • Fuzzy: Is your father dead?

    Dr. Wilbur Larch: She looks after other people's children.

    Fuzzy: Did she grow up around here?

    Dr. Wilbur Larch: No. She was an immigrant.
