The eldest sister is looking for a cowardly and unfeeling pediatrician who has not been formally divorced. She is not handsome, but she has the temperament of a mature man in her gestures, which seems to be quite reliable.
The second sister, Naijia, is easy to believe in the sweet words of little men and is willing to help each other. As the payer in love, she is often cheated of money.
The third child is even more bizarre. He likes the shop manager who is weird and has six toes missing, and is very proud of his feat of climbing Mount Everest.
This may be the plot deliberately arranged by the director, and the love of the three sisters is relatively incomplete. Who brought this influence, of course, was the "absent" father.
The eldest sister is sensible early and has fully witnessed the quarrels and categories of her parents. She hates the departure of her father, and hates her mother who doesn’t care about it. She always reminds herself not to be irresponsible like these two people and walks stubbornly toward their opposites. So she provoked the responsibility of taking care of the family, but her heart There are also times when they are extremely vulnerable and eager to find someone to rely on. Even if this person can only share worries for her in form, so that she won't be left to talk to, she looks much more reliable than the frivolous young people in the hospital. As a de facto third party, she endured the bite of her conscience and worked silently. Between hard work and caring for two crazy and unreliable sisters, she longed for a kind of mature, adult-like warm companionship, even if Just eat together and chat quietly. But for the sake of family, even if you finally choose not to go to the United States, even if you finally choose not to go to the United States, you may not be able to leave for your own happiness like your father and mother. My sister's view of love follows her own principles in entanglement, and she has a religious tolerance, which is a sense of responsibility greater than her own enjoyment.
The second child is very simple in nature. Growing up due to the absence of her father, it is difficult for her to recognize what a good man is, and it seems that she has not established the concept of family and the standards for choosing a spouse. I have dissatisfaction with her father in her memory. At night, she heard her parents quarreling and saw her sister comforting her mother. These painful memories of childhood made her want freedom, happiness, and unburdened company as an adult. Therefore, she is willing to spend money and time to keep her ignorant boyfriend, and she has been cheated again and again. Because no one taught her what a real good man looks like. She fumbled, hit a wall, gave up on herself, until she met the bank manager, she seemed to be gradually attracted by this person and began to grow by herself. The film did not go on, but I really hope that this kind, responsible and caring section manager can become her warm home.
The appearance of the third-girl boyfriend is more like an unexpected cold joke. The two sisters thought this little sister was not mainstream. The youngest Qianjia had the most vague impression of his father, but also the most curious. She likes fishing and plays with fishing rods at home. When Ling talks about her father also loves fishing, the expression on Qianjia's face is like a child's excitement-it turns out that my father and I are very similar on this point. Her father is still the object of worship in her heart. With this kind of mood, she slowly grows into a girl, and it is not surprising that she will be attracted by the store manager who loves sports, has a passion for climbing Mount Everest, and is full of adventurous spirit.
But Rei Asano (I have always wondered why the same father has different surnames) has almost a complete fifteen-year-old father's memory. This is exactly the time when the three sisters and their father had no news. This is a nearly perfect image of a young girl. She may have inherited her father's beautiful appearance, kind character and passion for sports. Her father would make sardine toast for her and take her to go fishing, and never missed the most critical period of her growth. So her love—though it's just Puppy Love, seems to be the most comfortable. The little boy Fengtai has been paying attention to her silently and staying with her. Although he is ignorant, he can see that the beautiful feeling is like the cherry blossom tunnel, "you have to look at it before you die to have no regrets". I really like the director's tender and restrained performance when portraying this little boy's love.
Perhaps the three sisters took her to Kamakura out of sympathy, but slowly, I felt that the presence of my little sister made the family feel more complete and the atmosphere more intimate. The eldest sister is no longer just as strict as a mother, the second sister has a little more sense of responsibility, and the third sister's role as peacemaker has also increased. In the hearts of the three of them, the vague impression that father was just "gentle" became a concrete existence for the first time-"Although my father is not reliable, he should be a very gentle person, so he left us with such a Good sister". Towards the end, there was a shot that was particularly impressive. The eldest sister has always liked Ling very much, but the knot seems to be the last one to open. She took Ling to the top of the mountain where her father had taken them overlooking the sea (that was the softest memory of her father that she had kept in her heart), hugged the little sister tightly, and said to her that you can stay here forever. I think that at that moment, she really reached a reconciliation with her father in her heart, and it was also the first time she faced the love that she could not give up to her father in her heart.
The last shot of the four sisters walking by the beach is my favorite. They look so relaxed and comfortable, the sky is high and the clouds are wide, and the kelp has taken away all the sorrows. They still have a lot of love and strength, and look forward to tomorrow's arrival together.
