A niche movie with both form and spirit

I have to say that in the year I first watched this film, my direct perception was very dull because I was not stimulated by anything in the film to stimulate the hormonal changes in my body. The only thing that stands out is the close-up of Monet's paintings, so since then, the WeChat avatar has also been replaced by a woman with a parasol.
I am glad that I still have a little aesthetic ability. After watching it several times, I realized that the film's plot, the setting of the characters, and the expression of father's love are surprisingly consistent with what Monet's paintings want to express. Many people may disagree if they evaluate the film as a woman holding a parasol in the film industry, but I personally feel that this way of interpreting emotions in a film is quite comparable to the way painters express emotions in oil paintings. A superb "forger". However, because the carriers carried by the two methods are different, the natural fit is lacking. Starting from human nature itself, women and children can arouse some emotional resonance, and the main narrative line composed of adult men in the camera lens makes it inevitable that the film will be compromised in the audience's acceptance; however, if we can jump Get out of the film and the painting itself, and observe it from the perspective of the painter, the fathers in the film, and even the director and actors: for the painter, the kind of talent that devotes everything to the short-lived beauty of natural timeliness and the momentary self-emotion at that time The creation that is condensed and solidified into a pair of oil paintings; how similar is it to fathers, who are willing to do everything they can to satisfy their son's wishes, whether it is early release from prison, forgery or theft, etc. However, the final result was so bland and serene; therefore, in terms of the commercial market response, it was not so enthusiastic, which must be the result expected and wanted by the director and the actors, regardless of the respect for the original artist, In terms of respect for art and even the original respect for the father's love, there is no flaw at all; and these beautiful and timeless things have the cross-dimensional power that traverses time and space. . . . . . . .

    Travolta recognizes the plot and takes a few more shots on the child's face. A real filmmaker wants to express his emotions in a movie way. Travolta has already integrated into the movie world!

    The whole film does not closely follow the theme of the forger, but uses it on the family relationship between the three generations of the grandson
