This is a very moving film. This film actually has two clues, the main line is the relationship between husband and wife, and the sub-line is the relationship between father and son, just like the subtitle "To Family" at the end, this is a touching family emotional drama.
The main line depicts the feelings of an old couple who are approaching dusk, and the love from the heart is meticulously and vividly expressed. There are many films that reflect the emotional life of the elderly, such as Haneke's "Love", which was also in 2012. This film may not be comparable to "Love" in terms of artistic quality, but I believe that from an ornamental point of view, it is relatively For the calm and even cruel narrative of "Love", most audiences will be more in love with the tenderness embodied in this film.
The secondary line is the relationship between Arthur and his son. Because Arthur is stubborn, unsmiling, and shy about revealing his inner feelings, as a result, in addition to his wife Marion, even his son James cannot understand his inner world, resulting in a serious relationship between the two opposition. There is a shot in the middle that is very clear. On the right is James playing and laughing with his daughter Jeniffer, and on the left is Arthur sitting silently on the head of his wife's bed, expressionless. In the end, with the help of Elizabeth, Arthur realized his own problem, and the result was that father and son reconciled and the clouds were clear.
The soundtrack of this film is excellent, especially the covers of "True Colours" and "Lullaby (Goodnight my angel)", which are apt and natural, and add a lot of color to the film.
