"Keep Silent" (Originally published in my blog 2006-04-22 22:02:30) is


a small town in England.
A housewife on the verge of despair. (The coquettish girl in Christine Scott Thomas' "The English Patient")
An orphaned woman who doesn't know who her mother is.

She has an adolescent daughter who keeps changing boyfriends and is eager to give up. She opened her eyes early in the morning and saw that the RV parked in front of the lawn downstairs was shaking, and she knew she was messing with her new boyfriend in his car. Engage. In front of the neighbors and the Lucheng people, she dragged her daughter out of the car angrily.

She has a son who goes to elementary school. Because of being cowardly and timid, she is always bullied by a group of bad cyclists. She goes to school to pick him up every day.

She has a husband who is a pastor in the town (Ron Atkinson's famous comedian Mr. Bean), who is too dull and serious. She is exhausted by various trivial matters in the town every day, and loses her sense of humor and interest in life. But he didn't realize that he was far away from his depressed wife.

She has a neighbor who blames the old man. The dog of the old man barks all night long. She sleeps all night listening to the clocks, and she suffers from schizophrenia. Advice to the old man was ignored, and she was left with a curse to vent.

She has a secret, her golf coach, a sturdy American muscular man (Patrick Swayze's infatuated man in "Human and Ghosts"), who likes to get rid of flowers, provoked her repressed Erotic, the two are planning to have an affair.

She still has a secret that she doesn't even know.

43 years ago, a pregnant British housewife was on a train journey. When the salute was inspecting the salute carriage, he found that a large suitcase with the name of the housewife was leaking blood. After arriving at the station, the police appeared in front of the housewife. Ask her if the two dead bodies in the box are her husband and his lover. The housewife said frankly: Yes. I did it when I found out they were cheating. Do you think I should stand by? !

43 years later, the family of the housewife who was on the edge of despair ushered in an old woman who was enlisted to be their housekeeper (the powerful female teacher in Harry Potter, the famous British evergreen actress Maki Smith). Among the old woman's luggage is a huge suitcase.

After the housekeeper appeared, something amazing happened to this house!
The life of the crazy housewife returned to the beautiful scene little by little from the edge of despair.
The dog's barking disappeared. The neighbors started looking for dogs everywhere. Then the neighbor disappeared. The housekeeper said he went on vacation.
The serious husband gradually learned to laugh, and the large-scale sermons he was preparing had vivid speeches.
On the eve of the day when the lover asked to go to Mexico for affair, the pastor's husband suddenly understood the true meaning of sex from the Bible, and the couple who had been abstinent for a long time found the joy of Eden again.
The sexually liberated daughter actually started to learn cooking and finally found a reliable man.
The person who bullied his son finally got retribution, and his son became confident and brave.

A TV show became a turning point.

The old woman turned out to be the murderer who was parole and murdered 43 years ago.
The desperate housewife is on the verge of collapse again, especially when the old woman says: as a mother I can only do so much for you! Looking at your life in a mess, can I just stand by and watch? !
Only then did she know that the people and animals that disappeared from her life were turned into corpses in the garden pond by her great mother!
The housewife cried ugly, and hysterically complained that her mother didn't help choose the wedding flower basket like other daughters' mothers, but discussed dealing with dead bodies!
Seeing this, I promise everyone will laugh loudly!

Excellent British humor and British performances, this story gave the three British starring Biao drama ample space, and the American role once again became a mockery of sarcasm! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
