When I was wandering on the Internet last weekend, I happened to see netizens discussing that the show "House of Flowers" was very beautiful and very interesting, so I made a low-handed video, and then I dedicated the whole weekend to this show. (Ha ha). This drama is produced by Netflix, with Manolo Carlo as the director and screenwriter. The original sound is in Spanish and the English dubbed version is also available. At present, the first and second seasons of the show are over, and the third season will be launched later this year.
Although the two seasons are a bit tiring to watch together, fortunately, each episode is only about half an hour, and the plot is also interesting and unexpected, so the overall impression is still good.
Now I will briefly share with you the few points I have most impressed with the drama "House of Flowers". Tip: The following content may have spoilers .
"This family has many secrets that cannot be seen"
The House of Flowers (la casa de las flores) is an old-fashioned flower shop run by the protagonist's family and has a history of nearly 50 years. This family is considered a decent figure in Mexico, and their house parties are even covered in magazines. But at that house party, the host’s mistress chose to hang himself in the flower shop, and the police and ambulance were dispatched. Although under the strong request of the family, the matter was not exposed, but this is just the beginning. Many deeper and lesser-known secrets have begun to eagerly want to surface...
"There is another face under the delicate flower-like face"
In the Flower House, there are not only colorful flowers, but also people with delicate faces like flowers. First of all, regardless of the two daughters and a young son in the family, both the two daughters and the one young son are both slim and graceful. The host and hostess who have passed away are still very well maintained. It can be said that they completely crush the existence of peers in appearance. But these delicate flowers-like faces actually have another side unknown. The host has a derailed lover and has a young daughter; the biological father of the hostess who has a child is not the host, but someone else; the eldest daughter divorces, her ex-husband turns into a woman; the second daughter is away from her boyfriend Derailed during the relationship, and broke up within a few hours after marrying her boyfriend, and then constantly wandering among various men; the youngest son is gay, and he keeps with his apparent girlfriend during his relationship with an older male friend Physical relationship. Such a family is really a mess!
"How should people live? Will you be happy if you live like everyone else?"
The House of Flowers has many secrets that cannot be seen, and the troubled and gossiping neighbors and the media always like to come to spy on the news from time to time. As a result, the people of Flower House started a battle of wits with them, and even resorted to such detrimental tricks as fishing law enforcement to their neighbors. Fortunately, the secrets of Flower House were kept in the family.
The youngest son in the Flower House is gay, or bisexual as he defines himself, but neither definition is acceptable to traditional Mexican ethics. The hostess once heard a friend who had afternoon tea mentioned that in Mexico, the fate of homosexuality is either going far away or receiving electric shock treatment, which makes her extremely anxious and worried.
Although the hostess tried to keep this secret, as the video leaked, the youngest son became the joke of countless Mexicans, and his same-sex couple was treated differently at work. Even so, the hostess did not give up the plan to let the youngest son marry his girlfriend. When the youngest son was in a quarrel with the same-sex partner, she gave the youngest son the diamond ring left by her great-grandmother and asked him to propose to his opposite-sex girlfriend.
But it was such a mother who finally witnessed the diamond ring left by her great-grandmother being worn by a man. But the most surprising thing is that she herself found the younger son’s same-sex partner and persuaded him to reconcile with the younger son. Although she saw the younger son propose to a man, she couldn’t help but complain. " If you The great-grandmother can see this scene, and it is estimated that she will die again. "
If there is anything that can compete with traditional ethics, it is the heart of a mother who is willing to do everything for the happiness of her children.
"The Flower House without the Flower House"
What does the house of flowers mean? For this family, it is not only a means of earning a living, but also a family business, and a symbol of social status, but at the end of the first season, the hostess sold the house of flowers that she had guarded for a lifetime, and redeemed the host from prison. And went to the United States alone for anti-cancer treatment.
When the hostess announced the sale of the House of Flowers, it was the 50th anniversary of this traditional flower shop. In 50 years, it is long enough to make people dependent, and I have to do everything I can to protect it. This is the case for florists. Why not care about others' opinions and persist in living the same way as everyone else? Just like what the play said: Living like everyone is like walking on a flat paved road. It’s very comfortable to walk on, but there will never be flowers on this road (La normalidad es un camino pavimentado: es cómodo para caminar, pero nunca crecerán flores en él.)
Without the Flower House without the Flower House, life continues. Maybe life will still be a chicken feather, but please believe that the flowers will bloom again.
