It is unbelievable that the third daughter was the first to get married. The eldest daughter lived in a lie she weaved and did not want to get married and said she wanted to guard the family, but she became brave and finally found the person she liked and married happily. .
Lao Zhu is a master of cooking, so the dishes on their table are usually very rich, and the meals on the table are usually not finished. The family should be happy and happy to eat such a sumptuous meal and talk about everything, but the old Zhu family's meal time is extremely silent. The daughters usually take dinner time as an occasion to announce important things to their families. Hearty meals, silent family.
The daughters are all grown up and will marry sooner or later. Lao Zhu, who lost his sense of taste, also lost his friends later. As he grew older, he took care of his three daughters at first. When his two daughters got married, the second daughter was also transferred to work abroad due to the arrangement of the company. When the daughters thought they had already found a Twilight wife for him, he announced a shocking news. It turned out that the father already had a partner.
Wu Qianlian in this movie is very moving. She played the most important role of the second daughter very well. She wanted to move out of the house and live outside, but she was the last one who stayed in the old house that had been sold to cook and wait for everyone to come back. In fact, in Lao Zhu's heart, the second daughter is the one who is most like him and his wife. Although father and daughter are often angry, scolding and quarrelling are usually a way of expressing love. The "Dad" at the end of the story said everything.
There is such a line in "Food Men and Women": "Actually, a family lives under one roof, and they can still live their own lives, but the kind of scruples that arise from psychology is what makes a home a home. "
I read Ang Lee's family trilogy backwards, "Food and Man," "Wedding Banquet," and "Pushing Hands." After watching "Pushing Hands", I thought of this sentence in "Diet Men and Women", only to realize that these three movies are all telling the same truth.
Because we are family, we need to communicate more. Because we are family members, we have a kind of scruples from our psychology. That kind of scruples affects our words and deeds. Words sometimes even express and reflect not the real self. That kind of scruples is formed by a love that fears hurt.
The reason why a home is home is because of language differences, cultural differences, lies, quarrels, misunderstandings, whether you choose to leave in the end, or you tell the truth, when you understand, it may be for this home.
In "Diet Men and Women", Lao Zhu's second daughter Jiaqian is usually just called "home" by one word.
Movies about home don't seem like sci-fi stories, love stories, and suspense stories that are immediately engaging. It may seem boring because of its bland description, but it's the most difficult story to tell, and it's the one that's silent when you watch it. , thinking, silent story.
A Chinese saying: Every family has a book that is hard to read.
