Let’s first analyze a clip that served as the direct trigger of the climax: She went to wear high heels after wearing a dress, and suddenly found that the shoes did not fit her feet, the clothes did not fit, she frowned and thought about it carefully, so she simply threw the shoes into the corner and took off her clothes . But she found that the ill-fitting dress was difficult to take off. She tried hard for a long time, and finally took it off. The moral of this clip is that the heroine usually wears a fake face to face life, just like the dress and high heels in front of her, it is actually a kind of suffering, a kind of restraint, a kind of hypocrisy that she is tired of, but she It seems that he is used to such a life, and it is not easy to remove the mask now. Now, the arrival of her father has highlighted the badness of her fake life. She doesn't want to go on like this anymore, so she decided to go out and meet her frankly.

The arrival of her father has mixed up her life into a ridiculous and ironic way. The father loves his daughter, and he doesn't want her daughter to live with such a heavy and busy body. He broke his daughter's life in such a stinging way. In the end, the father's love awakened the daughter, and we ushered in such a scene of tears: the father and daughter finally used a different way - the father dressed as a hairy monster and the daughter in loose pajamas. The long-suppressed "Dad" Afterwards, we embrace each other deeply - reconciliation, sublimation. This is a blatant satire of the indifferent family relationships of the contemporary middle class. ——Don't dare to face family affection in a real way, and always have to use a mask (with the help of some emotional medium) to truly release.

However, what is the value of living? what is the meaning of life? The father finally gave such a painful answer: "Most of the time in life is often occupied by daily trivial matters, do this and do that, and time is like flowing water, so is life. How can we grasp life well What about every moment? Sometimes I think of you learning to ride a bike when you were a kid, the day I found you at the bus stop, unfortunately we are always only in hindsight, and when you are in the game, you can't aware."

I do not know the true face of Mount Lu, only because I am in this mountain. When we discover the meaning of life and the beauty of life, it has gone away like running water and can never be recovered. Beauty is always fleeting, time is still waiting for you and me. We always realize in hindsight, how deeply sad. Therefore, in most of the time, we can only reminisce those good memories alone. "I thought that the beauty of time is precisely in its passing."
