We are all children

The English name is "Little Children", the Chinese translation is "Being a Mother", and the heroine Kate Winslet is the heroine on "Titanic". She was also nominated for this year's Oscar for leading actress. This is a very interesting and sexy film with some horror and suspense. It should belong to a family ethics film. The blandness of marriage and the passion of cheating, reason and emotion, choice and redemption are all deeply reflected in this film. .

Sarah is an idle housewife, taking care of her daughter at home. Her husband was caught by Sarah while browsing adult websites and masturbating at home. Sarah felt insulted that her husband betrayed her and gradually began to alienate the family. Brad is a housewife and male. After obtaining a law degree, he took the bar exam twice but failed. He has a beautiful and professional wife. It can be said that Brad lives in the shadow of her wife. Of course the two of them met, and it started out as only a spiritual connection, but of course they would go to bed. They start having sex frantically, enjoying the union of spirit and flesh. They do it in the basement, they do it in the attic, they do it during the day, they do it at night... Of course they are so bold, Brad's wife will definitely notice, they can't be bold anymore, what to do? After a fun time, they decided to elope!

Also in town are Ronnie, a pedophile, and Larry, a police officer who once shot and killed a child in a mall. Both Larry and Ronnie were like little kids living in the past. Larry became very sensitive due to his past mistakes and hated Ronnie very much. He often troubled Larry. Although almost everyone in the town was against Ronnie, Ronnie's mother still loved her son very much. During a conflict with Larry, Larry accidentally pushed Ronnie's mother's frail body and caused her death. Mother said "Be a good boy" to Ronnie before she died.

The final ending was a little unexpected. Ronnie went to the park in order to practice her mother's saying "Be a good boy". Sarah waited for Brad at the place where Brad was going to elope (also the park), and Brad didn't come. But on the way to the date, he had a long time wanting to skateboard and fell, and they both thought that the elopement was no longer important, and the family was the most important thing. Larry met Ronnie with guilt and took him to the hospital.

At the end the voice-over sounds: You couldn't change the past, but the future could be a different story, and it has started somewhere... Maybe that's the "theme" of the film.

In fact, Little children are everywhere. We are all children. We all make mistakes, but it is good to correct them. Let us be good children.

    It feels like a profound version of "Desperate Housewives"

Little Children quotes

  • Ronald James McGorvey: I just wanted to cool off!

  • Narrator: Sexual tension is an elusive thing, but Kathy had pretty good radar for it. It was like someone had turned a knob to the right, and the radio station clicked in so loud and clear it almost knocked her over. Once she became aware of the connection between them, it seemed impossible that she'd missed it before.
