An ode to the suffering of people.

Mike Leigh, have your tears been flickering during the filming of the film? This moving ode, it slowly flows into my heart, like a trickle in the desert, giving me a long-lost warmth .
I really want to say something to you, I really want to know what you have gone through, I really want to touch your face, I really want to use my heart to gently wipe your wet tears.
You are a poet, expressing people in distress with compassion, expressing their sadness, expressing their loneliness, expressing their struggle, expressing their tolerance, expressing their dignity and beauty.
Thank you, thank you, let me know, all this is worth it.

    Golden Strawberry: Similar themes need sensational elements to pave the way for the outbreak of the final ending. Mike Lee still shows traces of over-deliberation, which makes the movie feel like an interpretation. The photography and editing are very solid, but when I think of the "Home in the Snow Mountain" I watched this year, I can understand the secrets and lies better. Family gatherings, ancient and modern, all over the world, will sooner or later be a big drama, maybe this is human nature.

    "Secrets and lies, we are all suffering, why can't we let others share?" "If the truth is to be revealed, we must be mentally prepared." Everyone has their own hidden troubles, and it becomes doubly tormented because they cannot tell and know. The director spent 120 minutes making a long cushion for everyone's story, which made the last 10 minutes of explosion and release become extraordinarily exciting.
