floating life like painting

"In this painting, the leaves of one tree are green and the leaves of the other tree are red. What season is it?"

"The prettiest thing of all seasons, I guess."

This dialogue in the movie sums up the warm tone of the whole movie "MAUDIE", which makes you smile after watching it, but you can't help but shed tears, but the tears are sweet.

This is also a movie based on real events, and MAUDIE in reality at the end of the film is also pure and gentle when he smiles.

MAUDIE suffers from severe arthritis and is not seen by his family. Seemingly weak, cowardly and even a little strange, he has been kissed many times by the pain of life. She still supports herself with the beauty of the little bits and pieces, and the thin and small people have great energy.

EVERETT is a fishy man who grew up in an orphanage and is grumpy and stubborn. When he slapped MAUDIE, I think this man can't want it, hurry up and leave.

But it is these two people who have achieved a story of mutual dependence and mutual sympathy. Instead, it corresponds to the saying in the "Bible", "There is a time to love, and a time to hate. There is a time for everything, and there is a time for everything in the world."

They are like two socks left alone in the world, meeting at a certain point and beginning to become whole. She taught him how to be gentle with the world, and he gave her everything she wanted.

Everything she wants is not much, just a brush is enough. With you and paintings, the rest of my life is enough. In her world, everything she sees is beautiful. The ordinary life becomes bright and moving in her brushstrokes. He is also changing little by little, becoming gentle. Seeing what this ironic man did silently for her, I couldn't help laughing.

Her heart, both soft and tough, flows from her pen with black cats, white snow, and colorful flowers, representing all her memories and love. Floating life everything is framed into a painting, right there. Each of her paintings will belong to her and her husband's common name: Maud.Lewis.

Their plain love, in the bumps and disputes, in the day-to-day details of life, is getting better. Two imperfect people lit up a ray of light in each other's hearts and painted life into a colorful picture. But life is still ruthless everywhere, she still passed away from a serious illness, leaving him alone and a room of beauty. She left him a colorful world, although I am no longer, but you see how brilliant the flowers on the wall are by the window.

The people of Sri Lanka are like a rainbow, and when they meet above, they know there is. You may not be that good, but I know you are good.
