Happiness is caring

Many people feel that this film about the life of an older London young woman laughing and joking is very incomprehensible. In our impression, London is a traditional, orderly, and gloomy city. Even Doudou wears suits and shoes every day. Let’s not talk about whether the elementary school teacher’s dress is compliant, (where did she find flower socks in various colors?), the attitude of giggling at the sight of people is really not British. Shouldn't the older leftover women hold Jane Austen to hurt the spring and the autumn in the rainy season? Why is she so happy? ? So from the beginning, when she started talking to her buddies in the bookstore, she was regarded as an alien.

However, around Poppy, we saw the real and sad London: problem boys under the influence of domestic violence, poor homeless men with mental disorders, grumpy driving coaches with psychological shadows, angry dance teachers who can’t forget the past, and Sisters who follow the rules and are not close to humanity.

If Poppy is really just a heartless silly elder sister, he should not be sensitive to the boy's abnormalities, will not try to approach homeless people, and will not teach driving coaches. . . She is not superior to others, and she is not slower than others. It's just that she chose to face life happily. Yes, we can choose to be happy, choose to let people around us see a happy me, and hope that our happiness can infect those around us.

Compared with some inspirational movies, this film does not arrange any thrilling tasks for the protagonist. Ordinary mind, ordinary things, spend every day sincerely, create a "carefree" atmosphere within the limits of your ability.

    Zoe: Food.

    Poppy: That makes a change.
