The suffering and warmth of life

Because I love the movie "The Cramers", I found another film "Nobody's fool" by director Robert Benton, starring the famous Paul Newman.

The movie takes place in the northern town of Bath, New York. The whole town is covered with thick snow, quiet and cold. The film revolves around Paul Newman, a construction worker who was lame due to a work injury. It narrates a series of realities between him and other people in the town, yet reveals a warm story.

For example, a pocket watch that brings courage, a conversation with his son before entering prison, a conversation with a grandson hiding in the back compartment in a restaurant, a conversation with a simple and honest Rob on the threshold...

Every bit is the essence of life.

    The thick warmth has long overshadowed the snowy winter, a quiet and humane town

    The music of the 90's movies is all in the same tune, and it is too full, it looks so cliché. The dialogue is wonderful, PL's performance is full of joy, and he can continuously adjust his acting skills from the method school of the 1950s to adapt to the styles of different eras. The Berlin actor deserves his name. It's a pity that such an excellent actor does not have a real masterpiece, a little regret
