Maybe all girls' first love is their father

I cried to death watching this film, because I couldn't stand my father's tears at all. The father-daughter relationship in the film is simply words that I can't say from the bottom of my heart.
My father, of course, does not have the blonde hair and blue eyes of my father in the film, but he is also handsome and super patient. When I was a child, I didn't want to let my mother help me with my homework. My motivation to study, I am willing to get the best grades for him. I became a scholar.
Similar to the video, our family of three originally planned to travel to Sanya, but my mother canceled the trip due to temporary reasons, and my father and I were alone. When I was walking, I said I was afraid of getting lost, so I always held my father's hand; when I was swimming, my father held my waist with both hands in order to teach me, and it felt as sweet as a dream.

As my father expected, I went to the ideal university and found the ideal job. But after my mother passed away, I felt guilty all the time, and even felt that I was the one who killed her. Because of the sequelae of cerebral thrombosis, she has been ill for a long time, and the father who will take care of her is also exhausted. After I learned that my father needed surgery, I temporarily sent my mother to a nursing home and arranged for my father's hospitalization. I felt that I could not take care of two people at the same time. Every only child has such a difficult time. Unexpectedly, because my mother was not familiar with the environment of the nursing home, she fell down late at night and died before being sent to the hospital. I'm sorry, I didn't know this could happen. I thought our family of three would be reunited after my father's surgery. But I always ask myself, is the reason why I put my mother in a nursing home temporarily because I care more about my father's illness? I hate myself so much.

Now that I'm the age of marriage, when my boyfriend tried to push me on the bed, I almost kicked him. In my father's love for me, there is no such rude behavior, but I also understand that I can't accept it , I will only be a girl forever, and can't be a woman, but what's so rare about being a woman?

It was the first time I saw Ewan's performance, but the brilliance of his loving father deeply convinced me. His patience and tenderness towards his daughter are the real ones. The pain of his being hurt by her daughter pierces my heart. He has a kind of actor. , As long as you have seen the performance once, you will always like it. Ewan is such an actor. His acting skills are on the one hand, and his temperament is really warm. After watching the film, the first thing I did was cook my father's favorite dishes and drank some beer with him.
The rotten daughter in the film, I will remind myself as a mirror. I never want my father to feel sorry for me, never.

American Pastoral quotes

  • [first lines]

    Nathan Zuckerman: [narrating as WWII era dance music plays] Let's remember the energy. America had won the war. The depression was over. Sacrifice was over. The upsurge of life was contagious. We celebrated a moment of collective inebriation that we would never know again. Nothing like it in all the years that followed from our childhood until tonight, the 45th reunion of our high school class.

    Nathan Zuckerman: [now walking down a school hallway] At 30 or 40, a gathering of my old classmates would have been exactly the kind of thing I'd have kept my nose out of. But at 62, I found myself drawn to it as if in the crowd of half-remembered faces I'd be closer to the mystery at the heart of things, a magic trick that turned time past into time present.

    Merry Levov: Everything is political. Brushing your teeth is political.
