"The Law of the Cider House" (translated in Chinese as "There is Always a Bright Sun") tells the story of Homer, who grew up in an orphanage as a child, went from a closed orphanage to the outside world to pursue freedom, and gradually realized that although the rules were not reasonable, But freedom also has to have rules, and then comes back to the story of the orphanage. Everyone yearns for freedom when they are young, and doesn't understand the rules their parents require. Later, when they grow up and experience the wasted life, they realize that the original rules still have some truth. It's as if your parents told you: lying down and reading, your eyes will be short-sighted, and you shouldn't take it seriously. When I put on my glasses, I realized that it was true. Then, go to tell your child, and then add another pair of glasses, and the cycle goes on and on. It is only after personal experience that people know that some rules must be followed, but life is too short to be repeated, and people cannot have so much time to experience it. Rules and freedom are a double-edged sword. If there is only freedom without rules, it will be lawless and do whatever one wants. There are only rules, not freedom, and it will be lifeless and lifeless. Human society needs reasonable rules, and also needs corresponding freedom. The rules must be innovated to keep pace with the times, and then there will be full freedom.

    Owen's novels are always filled with a lot of elements, and they don't seem to be easily visualized. The adaptation of this film is undoubtedly quite successful, especially Toby Maguire’s classmate, who successfully performed a very difficult role. Of course, it may be the true character. The evidence is that after Spider-Man, in addition to marrying, having children, and divorcing in these years, it seems that he also No serious business... the supporting roles are also very good, and the whole film has a convincing taste of ancient times. But the translation of the name "There's Always Hot Sun" is so puzzling, maybe it's because you see the temperament that is similar to "Gone with the Wind"?

    Toby hadn't made his mark with Spider-Man when the movie was made. His acting skills in this film are brilliant. There is always a bright sun, what an inspiring sentence.

The Cider House Rules quotes

  • [Homer reads the actual Cider House Rules to the illiterate workers]

    Peaches: What do they think, go up to the roof to sleep? They must think we're crazy. They think we're dumb niggers, so we need some dumb rules, is what they think.

    Rose Rose: That's it? It don't mean nothin' at all. And all this time I been wonderin' about 'em.

    Arthur Rose: They outrageous, them rules. Who live in this cider house? Who grindin' up those apples, pressin' that cider, cleanin' up all this mess? Who just plain live here, just breathin' in that vinegar? Well, someone who don't live here made those rules. Those rules ain't for us. We are supposed to make our own rules. And we do. Every single day.
