I haven't seen much of her work before, and even "The Last Dream of the Covered Bridge" was the first time I experienced it last year, for which I generously shed my tears. Of course, the real pain is not measured by the number of tears, but by the amount of tears. Auntie's every look, every action.
In the same way, real happiness does not need to be conveyed by funny jokes or exaggerated expressions. Since "Mamma Mia", what I have seen is an independent, optimistic and life-loving Aunt Mei. Age has not stopped her from bursting with vitality. , the only addition is the charm brought by the precipitation of life. It makes people happy from the bottom of their hearts, a kind of joy that seems to be free from the influence of external things.
Starting from Julie&Julia, Aunt May's food journey starts happily. Living in France with her diplomat husband, she was reluctant to be a housewife and signed up for the Le Cordon Bleu chef training class. As the only female trainee, she practiced chopping onions with a group of men, tossing her wonderful life in the kitchen. She was willing to take the time to debone ducks, peel potatoes, and cook stock. She is a smart woman, she knows that a woman who is always passionate about life will be the most attractive woman.
It's complicated seems to be a sequel to J&J. It happens that Aunt May and his ex-husband's roles are also J&J – Jane & Jack. This time, life seems to bring Aunt May a new test. Ten years ago, for the sake of the mistress, she abandoned her ex-husband of nearly 20 years of marriage and three children, and pursued her at the same time as a calm and reserved architect. The proprietress of a bakery who also cooks a table of delicious food for her family. Aunt Mei, how should I choose this time? Broken mirrors can never be reunited, and overturned waters can never be reconciled, but how can this simple truth be so easy to understand for the protagonist in a predicament? Well, the life experience given by the years is not only the wrinkles on the face, but also some mental growth. She understands that what she needs is a long stream of water, not the sun that is suddenly far and near, sometimes hot and sometimes cold. “Good morning, I have something to ask you, do you happen to have some hot chocolate croissants?”
Not sure if I am a smart woman, only try to be a woman of courage, independence, confidence and taste.
