Everyone was accumulating resentment. Except for the third daughter who brought a little youth and vigor, the whole family atmosphere was dead. The old father went to the three daughters' room to wake people up after morning exercise every day, which was the brightest scene. It was as if the estrangement and unspeakable misunderstanding between those long-standing family members did not exist.
But Ang Lee took the repressed feeling into a comedy atmosphere, and even had some absurd existences. These absurdities are everyday absurdities, mixed with bitterness and joy. For example, the infatuated man who had been waiting for a colleague for a long time suddenly said that he was waiting for the third daughter, and the two developed rapidly until one day, the third daughter announced at the dinner table that he not only had a boyfriend, but more importantly, she Pregnant with his child and moving out. In this way, the youngest daughter moved out first, while the second daughter, who had been willing to move out and invested all her savings in the house, failed to invest and had to continue living at home.
Another example is the eldest sister's unknown love letters, although she was finally found to be a prank by the students, but her heart was revived in the process. Whether it was empathy or love, the eldest sister slowly changed in the process, yes The music of the neighbors for many years launched a resistance, and at the same time changed the conservative dress in the past, permed his hair, wore a red sweater, and walked in the school with style. The denunciation on the school broadcast made everyone even more surprised. What she denounced was her own depression for so many years. Woman breaking her own heart. She took the initiative and boldly kissed the physical education teacher, but fortunately, everyone was happy and made everyone sweat for her.
These absurd comedies in life are so good, I thought the movie would end in this repressed joy with a warm ending. But the second daughter, who was the first and most unwilling, bet all her life that she would never think that she was the one who left in the end. Seeing that both the eldest sister and the third child had left home, she also refused foreign job opportunities in order to take care of her father, but her father gave An orgasm for everyone. Although the audience and the three daughters did not agree with the old father and Aunt Liang, it was still the father's own choice and would not really object. The dinner was going on tepidly. The old father said something unintelligible cup after cup. At this time, he was still calm. When the camera turned to Jin Rong, what she said quietly made it not only the glasses but also the chin that were broken. It was about to fall off. I opened my mouth for a long time and didn't react. I guess I couldn't feel it even if my teeth fell out.
The eldest and the third are all logical little comedies, but the old father's one has the least foreshadowing and the most unexpected one. Only the father's love overflows and takes the initiative to make all kinds of delicious bento for Shanshan, and eat the unpalatable bento made by Jinrong himself. Later, Jinrong came over one day and told him that Shanshan would not go to school that day, so she didn't need to give lunch. Everyone thinks that the bento incident is just to show the deep love between Shanshan and her old father, grandson and grandson, thinking of father's love, thinking of the evening love with Aunt Liang, but not Jin Rong and her old father, this can be regarded as a curve to save the country.
In the end, Jin Rong turned around slowly, with a big belly, straightened his old father's clothes, kissed him, and whispered, "I love you." It was really blood spilled all over the place. But the old father has tasted the taste of life again, which is always a good thing.
Well, it's a complete failure, director, I've got you.
