"Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Club", the name is really confusing. At first I thought it was a movie like Anthony Hopkins's "84 Charing Cross Street", fresh and eternal, and affectionate. After seeing it, I feel that it is not the loneliness of the petty bourgeoisie, and it is not as simple as making friends with books, but a sad experience, with the unfortunate fate of the characters, which is quite heavy.
The film tells the story of two persistent young women, one who dared to love, dare to hate, and dare to act during the German occupation of World War II; the other lived after the war. By learning about the story of this wartime book club, he found his way to this special place. self, and pursue it without hesitation. I see these two young women as one kind of characters, one kind of expression at different times. I don't really like to elevate a character to the point where he can give up everything he has for others, even his own children. It is better to understand it from the perspective of love and hate, unable to hide your attitude, and unable to overcome temporary emotions. Whether it was the love for the German military doctor during the war, the rescue of the laborer, including the most fatal road in the concentration camp, or the resolute abandonment after the war to go to the United States with American diplomats to live a superior life, all of them show They can't tolerate the stubbornness of the sand in their eyes, showing that they don't compromise on the unsatisfactory things. There are quite a few such people in the West. They not only stick to their own principles, but also condemn those who disagree with them immediately and mercilessly. Yes, why should we compromise on the ugliness of society, why should we obey the violence of the powerful, why should we worship money and wealth? I have a low level of thinking, but I just feel that their image is too tall, and the tall ones are not cute, and there is absolutely no pejorative meaning.
