Let's pray for your husband's soul.

I slept drowsy for a long time in the afternoon, as if I was about to catch a cold. Hurry up and eat a hot ramen. This film has been in my computer for nearly a month. I still remember that I had to download it because I saw Keanu Reeves. I never imagined that he was actually just a supporting role in this film. Robin Wright Penn is the heroine. When I saw this name, I thought it was somehow related to Sean Penn. After checking it again, sure enough, she was Penn's wife. Ha ha



, after watching this film, I feel that the change of a person's appearance can't resist the wildness in her heart. The once crazy, because of one person, gradually changed. She married an old man who was 30 years older than him, and also married a tomb. After the initial love, the two dug a hole for each other, knowing that the person said, I already feel that the soil is buried in mine Throat, I can't breathe. 20 years ago, that man abandoned his wife, and 20 years later, he abandoned his wife again. In the end, he couldn't take it anymore, and his brain stopped working.



There are two scenes and dialogues that left a deep impression on me:

1. After a long race, Pippa Lee passed the baton to Sandra, and at the same time passed the burden to Sandra, she suddenly felt so relaxed. (Pippa Lee once took the baton 20 years ago.)

This reminds me of a TV series I watched recently, "Dwelling", which also tells the story of Xiaosan. It's really easy to say abroad. Why China is so dismissive of Xiaosan is because we have always paid attention to women's morality and three obedience and four virtues. But people abroad don't know about it. Falling in love is a personal choice, you can choose not to love others and then love others.



2. Cris took Pippa Lee out and said in his car,

when you pray for, what do you do?

Make my kids happy...

Do you wanna pray for your husband?

It's not useful. His brain is dead.

Not for his head, for his soul.

I can't even explain why Cris said that, and Cris used his fingers to make Pippa Lee relax completely. I only remember Jesus on Cris's chest, he said that this tatoo is the only thing left for his faith in God. And it is this tattoo that allows Pippa Lee to re-understand the things of life.



I don't understand why foreign directors can make human nature so realistic, and they are always portraying the hearts of characters. Real life gradually makes us become an actor. Life is like acting, we are all playing different roles. Role. But we had the biggest problem, the identity of the characters. I started to confuse myself, and in the end I almost didn’t know what kind of person I was and couldn’t accept myself. Sleepwalking, depression, etc. When Pippa Lee recalled her past life, I was thinking, a person like this, at least in my opinion, her previous life was so rotten, but she also changed. In fact, anyone can change, and everyone has their own characteristics. What changes is not the wildness in your heart, but the way you gradually adapt to your own life.
