growth, at every stage

Movies often take on the grand task of interpreting the growth of characters and inspiring the meaning of life for the viewer. From Melvin, Carroll to Simon, the film presents multiple characters - both in life and character, knocking out a crack, stepping into a process of peace and contentment at one stage - to be emphasized Yes, a stage.

Recently, I have rarely seen a blockbuster movie at the box office, so I will choose this kind of storytelling method that is gentle and slow. Without deceiving conspiracy and dog blood, the whole film uses humorous handwriting to connect the small accidents and small surprises in life, and slowly points to the change and growth of the characters. So what I see in this film is more like a small clip of a space cut off from the timeline. Look at these little people with different ages, characters, and lives to meet the subtle changes in life again and again, and then become emotional a bowl of warm water.

The three actors interpret the three main characters in a real and lovely way, and even the flaws are just a little extra to become a "human".
