Veda has exposed her arrogant, selfish, and mean qualities since childhood. She looked down on her mother, Mildred, and humiliated, ridiculed and hurt her mother for a long time. Her mother's fears for survival and her pursuit of money shame the teenage girl immersed in classical literature and music, the greasy chicken restaurant tarnishes her self-righteous talent and nobility, and the unexpected death of her sister deepens her love for her mother. hatred. Then she grew up, with amazing beauty and a soft voice, but her heart was like a snake. She used beauty to blackmail the rich boy, used her mother's love for her to squander the wealth that the former worked hard to accumulate in her life, and finally defeated her mother completely by being incoherent with her stepfather (that is, the playboy Monty). It is not so much that Mildred's struggle history is driven by profit (Monty accused her: "I use stinky money to make me wag my tail, but I am extremely stingy."), it is better to say that all the efforts of this mother are just to win the respect of her daughter Veda, But the result backfired, all her efforts deepened her daughter's discrimination and hostility towards her, and eventually everything came to zero - the mother-daughter relationship was completely broken, and the restaurant changed hands because of her daughter and Monty's profligacy. Its symbolic picture is that she and her ex-husband Bert are reunited and return to the original humble house. The disillusionment and floating of life ended with the pair drinking of the old couple "a drunk and a break". This ending tends to lead us to the desperate laughter of Robert De Niro lying on a smoky couch in a Chinatown opium den in Once Upon a Time in America (1984).

    1. Winslet’s acting skills have nothing to say, but the reason I have never had any special feelings for her is that no matter which scene, she walks like an auntie holding a watermelon on each side... 2. If I With a daughter like Veda, she should have sold her to her mother Sang when she was around 10 years old; 3. The Chinese name is translated too badly.

    The Great Depression may be the most memorable era of blood and tears in the United States, so this drama is enough to bring the old guys together, crying and crying with youth, toasting and singing memories. Classic car, the chicken in the kitchen is croaking in the oven, an outdated minor is exciting. Frustration and luck are like floods. After the time has passed, are there still people who are closely dependent on each other? Floating in a fantasy world, did you poke your tears? Please laugh at pain because you are also laughed at
