It's a movie that's easy to give up at the beginning.

A boring and irritable old man who lives alone, he has to intervene in everything in the community. If someone objects to this, threats and abuse will continue to come out of his mouth. He is really an unpleasant character.

Generally speaking, when I can’t watch a movie, I have two choices. One is to stop the loss in time and change to another movie. behind.

Obviously, this film belongs to the latter. When there is a sentence in the barrage, Ove is actually a very straightforward and kind person, but in real life people are often reluctant to understand such a person.

Because of this sentence, I suddenly want to know more about Ove.

The turning point begins with Ove's second suicide, and the memories of Ove's past will unfold after each suicide. It turns out that Ove also had a handsome face, a gentle temper, and a frank character when he was young. was gradually hidden from the jokes.

The first suicide, Ove saw his father leave, the second suicide, Ove met the angelic girl Soya. Ove's house was burnt that day, he had nowhere to go to sleep on the train for one night, and met Soya the next day, he had no tickets and no money, Soya made up for him.

So he took the train for three weeks to return the money to Soya, and Soya asked him, why didn't you treat me to dinner?

Ove is really an uninterested person. He remembers buying flowers, but the first time he saw Soya, he said: You are fifteen minutes late. During dinner, talk about engines and auto parts.

If you meet such a person in reality, you will probably be blacklisted right away? How straight, how boring, how can you be happy with such a person?

But Ove, who has just experienced the loss of his father, the burning of his home, and who has almost no financial ability, will give Soya a three-week train ride back down the track in order to pay back the money, so that she can order food as she pleases. Have a sneaky meal at home.

When Soya asks a question, she will not answer but give her what she needs as soon as possible. If she can be with such a person for the rest of her life, it will be too happy.

Ove is like water, introverted and quiet but gentle, and even tears when he touches the baby's fetal movement.

Suoya is like fire, she must live happily. She has followed this principle all her life. No matter what happens, she will walk on with a smile. Even if she suffers a miscarriage or is paralyzed, she must continue to do her favorite teaching profession and try her best to help everyone. Students find their way.

When they are together, happiness seems to overflow the screen at any time.

So after Soya's death, Ove lost his hope for life, and the debt to Soya and the unrecoverable justice tormented him every day.

Every time he sees a community council vehicle driving through the neighborhood despite warnings, Ove thinks of his father, his home burned down, and Soya, paralyzed by a car accident with no one to blame.

Life always hits Ove when he is happiest.

Originally Ove was a taciturn but gentle man, but now Ove is a grumpy and repulsive old man who lives alone, even though his neighbors still respect him, but rarely approach him.

As the barrage said, in reality, people are often reluctant to approach this kind of person, so I don't know why he has become like this, even if he is still gentle now, he will still stand up for injustice, but no one is approaching, And no one knows.

He was always lonely without Soya, so he decided to die, but he couldn't die every time because neighbors always came to him.

According to the original book, the newly moved neighbor realized that Ove was going to commit suicide, so he went to trouble him if he had nothing to do, trying to delay his idea of ​​dying. The movie didn't explain this too much, but the neighbor Really has been bothering Ove, in every way.

Because of this, Ove did not have the opportunity to commit suicide for the fourth time. Instead, he told the next story to his neighbors, and with the help of the neighbors, he slowly walked out of the past, but Ove did not enjoy such a long time. Just one morning he had a heart attack and passed away.

Unlike the previous funerals that Ove attended, Ove's funeral was full of people, and the neighbor's children even continued some of Ove's obsession with the community.

I don't know how to describe such a movie exactly, but Ove gave me a similar feeling to the moment I heard the speech at my grandfather's funeral a while ago.

I don't know their past, even close friends and family members may only know them now, but I don't know what they experienced in the past, what caused them to become what they are now, so when people around them leave one by one At that time, they became more and more lonely.

Ove said to Soya's tombstone, he doesn't know what's wrong with people now, and even the quality of a rope is not as good as it was in the past, what will happen to society in this way? Luckily he couldn't see it.

When my grandfather was alive, he often asked me, how come the children are not obedient at all, and why are no one willing to learn the brush?

Grandpa often came to me with writing brushes and copybooks. No one in our family practiced this. He hoped that I could pass it on.

In the end, I didn't have the patience to learn.

I have never understood why my grandfather is so obsessed with the brush, and I will never have the chance to know it in the future.

In contrast, Ove, who can pass on his beliefs, seems to have some happiness.
