Several protagonists in Life is Sweet have a few appearances, but they all show their personalities. The housewife Wendy has a cheerful and lively personality, and she always bursts into hearty and rhythmic laughter without saying a few words. The husband Andy is also a down-to-earth man, optimistic and peaceful, slightly wordy. A pair of twin daughters, one takes a bath at home during the day and is sensitive to autism, while the other rides a bicycle to go shopping, buys a white shirt and comes back quietly. The clothes are just like people, plain and white.
The life of a family of four has no earth-shattering events that deserve to be written about, but it is also full of dramatic conflicts one after another, among which all kinds of ups and downs are too trivial and ordinary, and often make the audience have a familiar understanding: the husband is in Hu Peng's drinking friend's Flickering to buy worthless junk, the housewife kindly went to a friend's restaurant to help, but fell into an embarrassing situation after the other party was drunk and mischievous, and the daughter who had passed puberty was tortured by anorexia and bored at home. A daughter with a calm and mature personality makes people feel comfortable.
Wendy's subconscious reaction is always laugh at it when her husband spends stupid money, gets a work injury, etc. A series of unfortunate things happen. Although it is annoying to hear too much laughter, her cute and positive personality makes people unable to help do not love. And the heavy burden on her heart didn't burst out until the end of the film. Facing her neurotic daughter, who had nothing to do at home, she couldn't help laughing at her life. The father who just got up and went to work did not give up, but you have already given up!
What a familiar word this is. The idea that life is not easy has been expressed and stated over and over again in countless movies, novels, and stories, and patients with anorexia or autism always appear in literary works as victims, but Wendy regards this as a The question of subjective initiative is about the simple question of "giving up and not giving up".
So this is why she can always be the driving force behind her life.
At the end of the movie, the emotional outburst of the dialogue between mother and daughter always reminds me of my own mother and another mother C. My mother is also a hard-working and flamboyant person, but she is always stern and thin, and C is our former neighbor, she and her husband have a mentally retarded eldest son on a meager salary, and another who is not A very smart young son, but he lives a life of laughter and scolding, a hundred colors, a wide heart and a fat body.
Whenever we chat behind closed doors and talk about the darkness and cruelty of today’s society and life, we can’t help but sigh and leave a long blank. At this time, my father will say: Look at C, if they can put it together Life is going to be enjoyable, what right do we have to complain and give in?
Wendy and C are the same people. They are ordinary and ordinary. They are only thinking about trivial matters in their parents, and even some annoying shortcomings in their personalities and living habits. But they themselves are completely unconscious, that kind of natural enthusiasm for life and that kind of tenacity are the most precious and shining gems, shining under the scorching sun of life, making us, who are disheartened and disheartened on the road of life, When I look back, I can't help but recall that
life is difficult, but it is also beautiful.
