Let’s chat with you today about this healing German movie "Chicken Stewed in Red Wine"
Henry is a cynical and lingering writer
His life is chaotic and tight, as if he has no purpose in life, so he can live it away .
My car was towed away and there was no money to redeem it
When Henry was in trouble, a very good job got him.
His old lover, Catalina, asked him to cooperate and adapted a popular novel of his own into a film and television screenplay
This is a great opportunity for Henry
Can both solve the livelihood and recover Katerina
But at this time another "surprise" also came to him
A lovely eight-year-old girl Magdalena - Henry's biological daughter
This originated from an "accident" between Henry and his friend Charlotte eight years ago.
Charlotte went to New York for company legal affairs
Had to give Magda to Henry to take care of it for four weeks
Henry knew that he had a daughter
But Henry doesn't like children and doesn't know how to take care of a child
Even when he broke up with Katerina, part of the reason was that he didn't want children.
Magda shattered Henry's bad life like a bomb
Henry doesn’t know how to do homework, he doesn’t know how to cook, and there are scattered expired foods in the refrigerator.
I don’t have any supplies suitable for children’s lives at home
He cut his clothes into a set of pajamas to Magda
Made the only chicken stew in red wine that can cook
But Magda doesn’t like the taste of red wine
Henry has no idea how to get along with a child
He even smoked in front of Magda
The cute Magda frowns and tells him that smoking makes people sick and smells bad
Henry left Magda at home alone and let her order pizza for herself
Eight-year-old Magda wants to fry her own eggs
As a result, the kitchen was burnt...
Henry hurried home
The firefighters blame Henry for not leaving an eight-year-old girl alone at home
And asked about Henry's relationship with the girl
Just when Henry hesitated
Magda said loudly: He is my father
I don’t know it was this accident that left Henry in his heart.
It was the conversation between the firefighter and Magda that influenced him
Henry slowly started to change
He will prepare a hearty breakfast for Magda
Will help Magda teach her classmates who bullied her at school
Will prepare child seats for Magda
Will play boxing with Magda
At work, he changed his attitude
Take this rare script adaptation seriously
He gradually learned to understand and compromise
It also made him get along with Katerina more and more
Catalina told Henry that he was actually very good
But Henry in the past was always cynical and denied everything
Then throw your brilliant ideas into the trash can
Because he never likes to finish one thing from beginning to end
This is actually a very wonderful thing
When Magda appeared before Henry without warning
Henry is at a loss
I never thought I would fall into such a situation
But now he starts to like this kid
This is the first time he has felt a kind of responsibility in life
He began to think about how to be a true father
Then he reviewed his life
I find that my life is a life of constant mistakes
This reminds me of that old-fashioned saying
When a boy becomes a father, he starts from a boy to a man. Of course, this doesn’t necessarily apply to everyone.
But I think that for many people
The identity of "father" is weighty after all
He can teach boys how to love and how to take responsibility
Although this process may be more difficult and long...
But it is impossible to be perfect whether you are a father or a child
All need to keep learning and running in
Hope we can make progress together
In general, this movie is a more routine father-daughter warmth movie in terms of plot.
But Magda’s cuteness and quirkiness are a highlight of the movie
Her various little expressions make me so cute!
And the actors are really two fathers and daughters in reality, maybe this is why they are so impressive~
