..."What I remember most about my childhood is holding your hand. My wee hand in your big hand, and the smell of tobacco. I remember, I could smell the tobacco in the palm of your hand. When I want to feel happy, I try to remember the smell of tobacco. "... ——In

the Name of the Father 1993

Darkness floods Northern Ireland. Giuseppe was lying on the prison bed, his nose bulging, his mouth breathing slightly. With death on his head, he leans over to kiss him, and he bids farewell to the viewer with the breath of an old man. Da! This word is found in languages ​​all over the world. Conlon just took out his mother's womb and instinctively shouted with all his strength, rolled over and got out of bed, and beat Giuseppe vigorously. The audience felt pain for him.

At the end of "The Man from Earth", it is the son who leaves the world first. A man who claims to have lived for 14,000 years, moved several times in the short one-hour film, which is really a long-term taboo. If the film could be made longer, he would definitely die. It must be the emotional cells that killed him, like cancer, developing healthily and prosperously.

Until death separates us, we set off in a silly straight line like a staking, delusional about turning back into a vast territory of our own before sunset. But it turns out that you are my starting point, my ending point, and my whole meaning. When darkness comes, if I don't see your hand beckoning on the horizon, I will die of exhaustion and nothing. As smart as a screenwriter, he also knows that the way to forcefully hit the viewer's weakness is to show that it is never too late to return to the original place. That power is always there, driving me home in the wind and snow, trying my best to get close, and trudging through the world for years away from you with a non-stop clockwork without fear. But as smart as a screenwriter, he never knew that even if death separates us, we will never be separated until death separates us.

Once I want to feel you, I try to remember the smell of tobacco..

    The notorious real events in modern British history, the unbearable torture to extract confessions and the passionate court overturning the case, the story itself is shocking enough. DDL and Postlethwaite performed extremely well, and the father-son relationship was deep. Behind the father's forbearance is the strength of his love and the wisdom of taking care of the overall situation. The son has also transformed from a wild and uninhibited gangster to a fighter who is a father and a cry for the truth. In the face of the power of darkness, some people are willing to protect themselves as ants, and some people are willing to light up the darkness for the faint light. Bono performs the soundtrack, and the bald girl's singing pierces people's hearts
