This is a Russian film. Возвращение, Russian, come back.


We relax in Xiangxi. After a 4-hour bus ride, I rushed back to Zhangjiajie from Fenghuang in the evening. Who knew that the plane ticket back to Xi'an was gone.

Back to the airport hotel. Huhu sleep. T said to turn the street the next morning. I know that we are all sleep deprived, so I dismissed the idea, go to sleep, go to sleep. So sleep.

wake up. Turn on the TV to watch, and there is an appointment for a good CCTV movie. At the beginning, the title of the movie will return.

T said not to look at this, I said look.

The result did not understand.

Two boys play together. A man came to the house, and mother said it was your father. Dad drove a car and took them on a tour. Where is tourism, it is simply suffering.

——The thief stole the child’s wallet. The father didn’t chase after seeing it. He asked, why don’t you chase it?

- Don't eat? Then get out of the car and soak in the rain.

- The car got stuck in the mud. Go cut branches and stuff it under the wheels. The hand is a little slower, and the head is a blow.

All kinds of.

The father educates the son in his own way in the slightest details of life, but the son does not accept it.

The younger son angrily climbed a high tower where his father was said to have worked as a navigator.

The father was afraid that his son would jump, so he also climbed up. As a result, the planks of the tower were broken, and the father quietly fell to the ground.

Son, and us as the audience, were stunned.

The eldest son followed his father's instructions and sent his father's body to the other side with his younger brother. Unexpectedly, the boat carrying his father slid into the sea, along with a small box he had dug out of a shabby house that must contain a secret.

I don't understand. T, who has always watched movies better than me, didn't understand it either.

We are a little bit depressed about this. Laugh at it again.

Then, I came back from Xiangxi. (20051204)
