A man who dedicated his life to his family is about to leave, and we cannot bear to tell her this cruel truth. This is the most important bond that holds our family together, even though we are far apart, our roots are here, but now it is about to wither. This is really the saddest thing I've ever known in this world, because I was born into such a family, and my grandmother who cares about keeps us together.
First, it's a simple story. Grandma had terminal cancer. Her sister didn't tell her, but quietly informed her family. On the grounds that "the title of Chongxi is purely my nonsense, everyone should laugh after reading it, don't take it seriously", everyone flew back from the United States and Japan, gathered together and finally accompany this lovely old man. It is full of jokes, and it always pokes your tears at certain moments. I like the part where the elders in the family bicker at the dinner table after the massage, which basically reflects the values. The one who wants to send the child to the United States should be the youngest daughter in the family. She is greedy and vanity. The one who wears glasses should be the brother of the heroine's father. The heroine's name is Uncle. I'm sorry I didn't have Chinese subtitles. Now I can't read the lines without subtitles. The father of the man, "I can't help but mention it here. Although these two Japanese expats have few lines and scenes, they are very happy every time they see them." Sophistication, and the majesty of the elders "the scene where Billie stops her father from smoking". There is also the conversation between Billie and her mother in the room where Dad was brought back to the room by his mother when he was drunk. This kind of portrayal of each character is so perfect that I took a deep look into it.
I don't want to discuss whether it is a basic human right to tell a terminally ill a fact that she should know, there is a line in an American movie I watched that was "When your mother was carrying you like a cask, I I will definitely not call her the barrel directly, but will praise her beauty, this is a white lie" forget the source, the original line is definitely not like this, but I think Americans who can say this line in the movie should be able to understand our mood. If telling her that fact doesn't make things better, then white lies, if not entirely good, should at least not be classified as evil.
But let me tell you a fact, the most vicious curse in this world is "for your own good", when they say the three words "for your own good", in fact, most of the starting point for this matter itself is them A one-sided perspective feels "for your own good". But when these things are added to you, you will never feel good. It's good to impose your own views on others and use my heart, at least from my point of view, it's the best for you, why don't you listen to me? They don't understand. It took me a long time to finally understand. This is just the angle from which we understand the world and the events themselves, which are different. Even if they don't have bad intentions, they will never be persuaded to change their minds by you. You should also decline or deceive them. Their perspectives are different from yours, just as people are different. But even if you use all kinds of methods to resist perfunctory or deceive them, don't hate them, because you only have different perspectives and concepts, which does not mean that they are not treating you with sincerity. Because just as they don't fully understand you, you absolutely cannot fully understand them. Here I am writing this piece of spiritual insight to every friend who reads this film review. You can rebel against her, but please don't hate her, because as she said, she really loves you from the bottom of her heart, but in this way, it's too painful for you.
Finally, those "weird murals" were deliberately photographed to be funny. It's not that I say this with a sense of national inferiority. It's really weird in the eyes of my native Chinese. It's a North Korean symbol, and I don't really care. For this flaw, I may praise its excellence. The first person to see such a profound portrayal of a Chinese family was Director Ang Lee's promoter, eating and drinking. I really wish there were more movies like this.
Finally, let me show you my favorite group portrait, too Nima is cool.
