Another journey of redemption. Who would believe that a poor old man in his 70s, leaning on two crutches and sick, drove his lawnmower for more than five weeks to more than 300 miles (nearly 500 kilometers) away to see him without contact for ten years Brothers? It's not actually made up, it's an adaptation of a true event! It's just a matter of life, and I wiped a sweat for him several times in the middle, but I can also understand that he has to rely on himself to see the last side of his life.
In the end, when he trembled outside his brother's door and shouted twice and no one responded, my heart trembled, and I prayed to God, let this poor old man see his brother one last time. The stubborn younger brother knew that the old man's eyes were red when he drove the lawnmower all the way to see him, and I cried too, how can people have such complex emotions, so that brothers can hate each other for ten years without contact, and let one of them Going alone for hundreds of kilometers just to see another one last time.
In short, it is a very good road movie, with plot, moving, pictures, music, perfect!
The most poignant line is when a young guy asks Erwin "What's the worst part about being old, Alvin?" Erwin replies, "The worst part of being old is remembering when you were young."
