story briefing (excerpt from the 37th Hong Kong International Film Festival) :

Robbie, the little bastard who just became a dad, wanted to reform and rehabilitate. He planned to start over after serving the community labor order, but his grievances cannot allow him to retreat. He accidentally bumped into a winery tour and accidentally discovered his own wine tasting tips. In order to start a new life, the impossible task of a copycat oolong version began.

Robbie, a young father who barely escapes a prison sentence, is assigned to community service. There, he meets up with fellow hooligans in similar circumstances due to their criminal records and lack of prospects. Little do they know that drinking would be the solution to their problems ... not the cheap grog type, but the finest of malt whisky.

Robbie, who has done nothing, has just become a father. For the future of his wife and children, how can he start a new page in his life?

Ken Loach's "The Angels' Share" (The Angels' Share) tells the story of Robbie. The movie led the audience to witness how Robbie walked out of the quagmire of life. The tone was humorous and there were no lack of delicate and moving scenes. It was very pleasant to watch Li. I like the gift Robbie prepared for the benefactor the most. The short scene is warm and touching, enough to sweep away all the haze in the world!

(Press: The Angels' Share refers to the amount of whiskey lost in the barrel each year, about 2%. Robbie can start again, which has a lot to do with whiskey and winery.)

    6.3. We are scrambling to turn a movie into a TV series, but you can't just turn a TV series into a movie! What kind of trouble is this? Speaking of He Ying and He Mei, how could the same script be so different from the other? It's all normal, the long orgasm in the foreplay is unbearable, a few bad jokes and a perfect ending are not bad.

The Angels' Share quotes

  • Robbie: Whisky? I've never even tasted whisky.

  • Robbie: [to his baby son] Luke, I swear on your life, and on mine, that I will never hurt another person as long as I live. That's a promise, wee man.

    [kisses the baby]

    Leonie: What if Clancy turns up? What about your promise then? Will you walk away?

    Robbie: Leonie, if I turn and walk away, or run away, it's not gonna make a difference to me. He's gonna stab me in the back.

    Leonie: What is it between you two?

    Leonie: His dad fought my dad at school. It's been like this for years, it's just the way it is.

    Leonie: The way it is? And will Luke fight his son, too, Robbie?
