If I were to recommend it to a friend, I think I would say: "It's a movie worth watching, and it's also a movie that I won't want to watch a second time."
Since it's too heavy, I don't think I can write something lightly. what.
I want to talk about the reality revealed by the content at the front of the movie.
Before entering the church, Silvia's father said something while persuading her mother to travel with him,
"We might have less quarrels without these two children."
Then, the mother sent Silvia away Let them go back in the car by themselves, and when they said they wanted to settle some matters with the father, they looked at the father and raised the corners of their mouths.
In my opinion, although mother couldn't bear to leave the children, she also agreed with father's "burden".
In other words, her maternal love was temporarily defeated by the beauty of travel.
(Sorry here, I think they're going to have a blast at this time.)
This allows me to boldly derive (personal opinion)
I don't think father and mother are the kind of parents who plan to have children.
I think they were probably together when they were young because of each other's love of travel, people who said they would just walk around.
The attitude towards children may be to let nature take its course, or there may be a little subconscious thought of not wanting children.
The later births of Sylvia and Janney were apparently unplanned.
From the film, it seems that the two sisters are very well-behaved and sensible, and they move around with their parents and never cause trouble.
Parents must be very happy about this, because they can have both the travel they love and their lovely children.
Then came Gertrude.
I don't want to say anything about her.
Apparently, the frequency between Gertrude and father fluctuated a little.
When Gertrude put his hand on the father's lap, the father completely trusted her.
Judging from the subsequent plot, it is obvious that Gertrude's trick is effective for both teenage boys and tens of years old uncles. As for a man, I feel disgusted with anything above
╮(╯▽╰)╭ . The most annoying thing is that Sylvia called her parents and told them that Gertrude physically punished them. After they hung up the phone in a hurry, their parents didn't come back right away! They actually believed Gertrude's words, and they had to travel to another place to delay their return until November! They actually went on a trip with peace of mind without confirming the situation of Sylvia and Jenny! OK, I want to derive again. They got a call and were surprised by the corporal punishment that Sylvia said. mother is worried. But both felt incredible. Father couldn't believe that the woman he was talking to was meek and amiable. How could it be possible to corporally punish someone else's child? What's more, they paid for it. Besides, so many children in her family are growing up very well. Gertrude and father must have had a call later. Of course Gertrude would say that Sylvia was doing well, that she took good care of Balabala like that. So, father never believed it, but he really didn't believe it. I think mother still has compassion, and she is still worried when her precious daughter says they are not doing well. So the father will definitely enlighten her, I think so
I called Gertrude just now, don't worry, our baby girls are doing well, you think, it's their first time staying in a stranger's family (it seems they were all in grandma's house before), for sure I won't get used to it, some small frictions are inevitable, maybe she misses us too much, so she exaggerates, so many children in their family are growing up well, our daughter will live well, you can rest assured . And the boss told me that we can go with the carnival event next month. . . . . . . . .
Then they took a shot. . . .
Mother's maternal love was once again defeated by the beauty of travel.
At the end of the movie, the trial is over, and the footage is given to the parents.
mother cuddled on father's chest and cried.
I fuck
Sylvia didn't cry what the fuck you cry.
Your fucking tears are worth a few coins.
Did the fuck that woman touch your thigh and the semen backed up into your skull causing a short circuit in your brain?
No matter what that woman did, if you had done your duty and got back in time,
Sylvia wouldn't have been abused in such a way that she died.
I wouldn't say this about the parents without the final sentence of the film.
The film ends with the words: The parents went on another tour, this time they were boarding Janney with a prosecutor's family.
Look, they still travel.
Even so, they still travel.
In the end, Sylvia said that
God has a plan for everything, and
I think I'm still trying to figure out my destiny.
This sentence left me speechless for a long time.
When watching the movie, I could feel the director wanted to downplay the whole story.
Generally, for the sake of artistry, movies will exaggerate the facts and exaggerate the acting skills for the sake of effect.
But I can feel the film, the director wants to control the effect.
The story cannot be exaggerated by indulgence.
Because ordinary people can't accept it.
Most people can accept fantasy ghosts and ghosts, but it is difficult to accept "adaptation from real stories".
Here, I'm only talking about her parents, what the woman and the other kids did to Sylvia later on.
I have nothing to say.
This movie is highly recommended, but I can't give it five stars.
