just say a little

I've always been wary of French films, long films, smooth and monotonous narrative, often let people sleepy, need enough patience to watch, but after watching it is worth the aftertaste.

Just like when watching a movie, I had this mentality at the beginning, but I ended up watching it carefully. Later, according to the report, the director completed all the shooting in an apartment, and the layout and lighting were very particular.

Going back to the main text, this film was very depressing to watch, because I kept thinking about my elderly parents when I watched it. In the film, the old people who have lived together for a lifetime depend on each other until old age, and use this love to accompany each other through the last period of life. This love is to let oneself and the other half live with dignity, until finally the old man uses the same method in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" to let his wife die with dignity.

In the film, the old man gradually fell into unconsciousness as his condition worsened. When his daughter came to visit, the old man locked the bedroom door and prevented his daughter from going in to see her mother. I couldn't understand the old man's actions for a while, but when the old man told his daughter: You have passed your life, the condition can't be changed, we don't want you to come to us like an examination, it is very sad and dignified for both of us At that time, I suddenly felt that as children, we really seldom take into account the feelings of our parents, and just treat our parents according to our own wishes, including filial piety. This kind of analysis of delicate feelings and human nature is really only done well by French films.

How to deal with aging parents, sick parents, or even parents who may not be able to take care of themselves, and what level children can achieve is really inconclusive. Children also have a helpless side. Perhaps the single most feasible thing is not to wait until the last moment to try to double up on something, and to leave as few regrets as possible.
