Taste of life

Personal preference, let’s talk about the male protagonist first.

Colin firth has inevitably started playing the role of daddy since 2000. Compared to the darcy in arrogance and prejudice, the former Yushu Linfeng is gradually being smoothed by time, and the wrinkles and the obviously loose skin that creep up to the corners of the eyes are all conveying: the fans are intentional, but they are helpless and ruthless.

But what Colin is best at is the role of infatuated single father. It is understandable that colin has a strong aura. 187cm, enough sense of security, father's height. The words are full of English accent, and the sense of stability is enough, father's voice. The neat shirt and the old-fashioned leather handbag are the father at work. Affectionate eyes, small awkwardness when cutting vegetables for the first time, and clasping her daughter's arms when hugging Mary, he is the father at home. From the fan's point of view, Colin is really an immortal man.

Let's talk about movies. The lens has a somewhat documentary taste. Kelly said to Mary, you ruin my life, and I will ruin you too. Kelly has an implicit complaint towards his sister. The three people are in a foreign land, trying to enter a new life, but uncontrollably let the past situation immerse into the new life. Towards the end of the film, kelly sits in the back seat of the motorcycle, still remembering all kinds of puzzles with her mother. Mary is in When sleeping, the mother still appears in the dream. The daughter’s puberty issues and the increasingly tense relationship between the daughters, the father spared no effort to make everything under control, but still lost the little daughter twice.

Until, Mary caused a traffic accident. Kelly, who has been ignoring her little sister, said sorry for this. The father and daughter embraced under the interchange. At this moment, the depressed and flustered life can be temporarily ended, and the depression and contradictions of life can be temporarily released.

The end of the film is open. After sending his daughters to school, the father walked on the road. end.

The opening ending makes me feel that the taste of life in the film has suddenly improved.

Everything is like life.

Even if you can't see happy ending. Also see the warm sunshine of Genova at this moment. In order to love, we must be happy and hardworking, on the road.
