The protagonist Daniel, as the second son in the family, took on all the important responsibilities of the entire family, preparing for his father's funeral, and worrying about buying a house. But it seems that the story was not smooth from the very beginning. The funeral company made the wrong coffin, was urged by his wife to buy a house, even reading the funeral speech would be despised by all relatives, and suddenly a father's "lover" appeared to cause confusion. But just when everyone cared about their own affairs, only Daniel was thinking about the family. For the sake of his father's face, he even promised the "little devil (with a deep-rooted image)" to pay him the money for the new house as a hush money. In the end, Daniel's impassioned unscripted reading of the entire speech impressed the relatives and friends present. He spread his emotions to everyone present, earned enough face for himself and his father, and changed his brother Robert's selfish attitude.
Brother Robert, although a well-known writer (the little devil has read his books to prove that he may indeed be well-known), refuses to help with anything in the family, even at his father's funeral. As a writer, he entrusted his younger brother Daniel with the task of making a funeral speech, making Daniel pay for his frivolity.
Although Daniel has been in trouble all the time, he has a wife who loves him. Even when he learns that he is in big trouble, he still supports and encourages him without hesitation. The same goes for Martha, even though her boyfriend, Simon, keeps humiliating her.
Howard and Justin, one has been complaining about the dark skin on his hands, and the other is going to the wedding for another purpose, in order to pursue Martha. Although Howard is timid, he is quite righteous for his friends. Justin is a complete selfish ghost. He left Howard to chase after Martha, and applauded Simon when he jumped off the building. He lost interest in Martha instantly after learning that she was pregnant.
The special thing about British comedy movies is that they can magnify the emotions between people and show them. Family is a concept that British films pay special attention to. In a busy society, we may be so busy with our livelihood that we have no time to take care of our family, but the responsibility of the family cannot be shied away. The protagonist of the story, Daniel, is the embodiment of each of us.
