bloom like a magnolia

Such a complex story, so many characters, such intricate relationships, and so many love-hate emotions, were told so clearly and clearly by the director in 3 hours, and together they formed a magnolia full of rich emotions. I admire you.
Seeing a lot of familiar faces, it can be said that basically every actor has performed well, so a good actor must have a good script and a good director to be able to bloom like a magnolia. I especially appreciate Julianne Moore's performance. Of course, brother Tom is also very good. It's a little "released".
The music is just right, especially when everyone sang the song it's not going to stop together on a rainy night, their eyes showed the same confusion and emptiness, and their hearts were the same depression, sadness and at a loss.
In the end, after everyone chooses their own way, some people choose to forgive, some people choose to let go, some people choose to give up, and some people choose to hope.
In fact, their confusion, we have all experienced in our lives, more or less.

    80/100, it may still focus too much on narrative and force, the group portraits are perfectly portrayed, but almost everything is waiting for the opportunity to meet "that rain". Even the masterful use of music did not make the film as unexpected as other PTA works.

    The film that you can't understand but can't stop watching it over and over again. In life, there are not only coincidences. The director, screenwriter, performance and music are exceptionally good, and the film is ruthlessly ignored.
