fall in love with England

Watching Movies and Walking the World: England. "What did we do on vacation"? A: Our family of five drove from London to the Scottish Highlands to celebrate the 75th birthday of my grandfather. Say something. 1. The Scottish Highlands. Like the road film, the aerial shot of the Scottish Highlands, the postcard is generally unbelievably beautiful. Plant grass UK, especially the Scottish Highlands. 2. Scottish kilt. The male protagonist's brother Gavin is wearing a pleated skirt, which turns out to be a Scottish "formal dress" for weddings or other formal occasions. Completely subvert my cognition, tsk tsk. 3. British English. To non-English speakers, it sounds more authentic British than American English (well-spoken, articulate without swallowing). To make an inappropriate analogy, British English can be compared to Mandarin Chinese (American English can be compared to Beijing dialect). 4, the wise grandfather's golden sentence. Disagreement between relatives is nothing. At the end of your life you will understand that none of these matters, that love is what matters. 5. Beach funeral & couples play. To be honest, these two scenes are kind of silly. However, I also understand the editor. The former is for the ups and downs of the plot, and the latter is to cater to the audience's psychological needs for happy end. Of course, the flaws do not hide the beauty. The overall look and feel is good, I like everyone in the film, old and young (each has a distinct personality, and each has its own advantages. For example, grandpa's mastery / uncle's cleverness / aunt's general knowledge / cousin's little talent / father's outfit / mother's love / Three treasures of the bear and cute / The frankness of the grandmother of the Ostrich Manor). Give praise, 7.8/10 points.
