The past is the only thing that has passed away, but exudes a sweet smell

A movie adapted from a novel. I haven’t read a novel. According to the description of people who have seen it, the novel is relatively large. ldgie and ruth are a pair of lovers. However, there are many restrictions on homosexuality in the filming era, so the director made a lot of changes and downplayed it. After this pair of emotions (really very weak), it brings in other people's emotions, either strong or weak. Some people have a preconceived feeling after reading the book, analyzing the emotional line between the two in the movie, but it is really a bit far-fetched. It is more appropriate to describe love with each other rather than direct love (only in movies). I think of it as A separate film separated from the novel.

Ninny is an elderly ldgie. When she saw her telling Evelyn about ldgie and Ruth in the nursing home, she wanted to laugh. Everyone who saw it could basically guess that the two were the same, but you would wait until the end of the movie. Like Evelyn, he suddenly realized the "So it was you" expression.

Ruth lost his first love-ldgie's brother, if his brother were still alive, Ruth would not have such a bad marriage. Because of religion and character, Ruth prayed for patience in times of difficulty, but she told ldgie that if her husband were to grab the child, she would not pray that he would break his neck directly. The same ldgie said when he saw Ruth being beaten, "If you touch her again, I will kill you."

After Ruth's death, the railway no longer passed by, and the cafe they opened was also closed. The elderly Ninny returned to the deserted and desolate place. She sighed when she saw these joys that could feel the survivors of the past. There are so many people in a small place." What kind of joy is it? It’s George, Old Mo, pastor, and all of ldgie who protect and love Ruth, and even do something for Ruth together. This will make Ruth thoroughly. Get out of the anxiety. When Evelyn accidentally drove to this deserted place for the first time, the fate of Evelyn and Ruth was also connected at that moment. The coffee shop is closed. The people of the past are also scattered, but the interdependence and emotions between people have once again recovered and continued. This should be the theme of this movie, and this time it is the turn of others to return to Ruth. Love, love her, take care of her, and accompany her to the end, this is the end.

The four actors are very comfortable to watch. I first decided to watch this movie after watching a group photo of the four. Such movies include "I Drive for Miss Daisy" and "Golden Pond", which are very soothing and gentle. movie

The movie also warns you to have common sense of safety, don’t stay in dangerous places for too long. I have seen the ending when ldgie’s brother was picking up hats slowly on the rails...

    Always wanted to see a movie that I finally saw, other people's stories always inspire us to move forward

    Although I kept jumping back and forth in the two years, I really like this kind of straightforward interpretation. It doesn't play with fancy shots or superficial pretentiousness, and there are no over-modified scenes. It is really fresh and natural without being artificial. Aggie and Ruth are both Buddy's admirers, and Buddy is also their spiritual connection, but their friendship is even more natural, and the sisterhood is nurtured here, which in turn influences others.
