Marvin's room, the first shot of the film drives a car, and a woman gets out of the car. I'm sorry, I couldn't recognize her as Diane Keaton at the first time. A generation of goddesses has become so old. There are many stars who are reluctant to act again when they are old, and some even quit the entertainment circle completely, such as Wang Zuxian and Guan Zhilin. I think it is a good thing to keep the best face on the screen and then leave. Aging is a very painful thing, both for them and the audience, we just don't want to accept the unbearable reality, we want to keep the good forever. The film came out in 1996, when Diane Keaton was 50, Meryl Streep was approaching 50, and Leonardo was 23. The film is actually a very sad family relationship, and the director tried to present it in the form of comedy as much as possible. In fact, it can't be called a comedy. It can only be said that it should not be so sad, but it is difficult for those who have watched the whole film not to lament. In the film, Diane Keaton may have never been married. She had a crush when she was young, but that person also passed away early. Sadly, everyone thought he was laughing, when in fact he had drowned, but his expression seemed to be laughing. Diane Keaton has spent her life caring for her elderly father, who suffered a stroke, and an aunt who has long since entered Alzheimer's. She also has a sister played by Aunt May, but the two have not had any contact for more than 20 years. Until Diane Keaton was diagnosed with leukemia, perhaps a bone marrow transplant was the last hope, and she contacted Aunt May, who she hadn't seen in years. At the same time, Aunt Mei's family is also indescribable. She has a son, Leonardo, who is in the rebellious period of his youth. Between Diane Keaton and Aunt May's sisters, between Aunt May and Leonardo's mother and son, between Aunt May and her father, between Diane Keaton and her nephew, how to deal with a variety of complex emotions. I suddenly remembered another movie, Manchester by the Sea, with the same similar emotional conflict. We long for affection in our hearts, but we have been running away. We use the sharpest knife to treat our dearest people because we love them, but we also try to run away from them because we love them. Just as Aunt Mei returned to her father she hadn't seen in 20 years, she tried to call her father in a relaxed and unconcerned tone, but just seeing the scene of being paralyzed in bed, she closed the door directly, not daring to face her father . If you haven't experienced the years, you can't understand the complex emotions. There was also a fierce quarrel between Aunt May and Diane Keaton. After the two of them were relatively polite at the beginning of meeting, the two sisters finally revealed their deepest scars, the biggest resentment in their hearts, he They were arguing more fiercely than ever, and said the most cruel words, but after turning around and running out of the house, Aunt Mei was left in tears. I don't think Leonardo, who was 23 years old at the time, would understand this emotion.
