The first is family, parents, grandparents, grandparents, siblings, distant relatives and neighbors.
Then I stepped into the campus, with my classmates and teachers.
Later, when you step into society, you will face the intricate interpersonal relationships, intertwined and influenced each other. Everyone is different. Perhaps, your own personality will determine your interpersonal map.
Later, it is to get along with the opposite sex, find feelings, and start a family.
Finally, raising children is a university question.
Mickey said in the movie: "Many people in the world think they made a bad choice."
There is an emotion in this world that takes you out of the normal trajectory of your life, robs you of your pleasure, and leaves you empty, and that emotion is hatred. Many works like to give hatred to romantic expressions. For example, after ten years of bearing humiliation, finally seeing the enemy in distress, that kind of pleasure makes the viewers also elated. However, everyone has forgotten that this kind of pleasure is extremely short-lived, and the price is longer mental and physical torture, and if this kind of hatred itself is a bit far-fetched, then such a price is worth considering.
"Unfinished Life" is such a movie about hatred and forgiveness. There are not as many deep hatreds in the world as we imagine. Many times, forgiving others is forgiving ourselves.
"Unfinished Life" belongs to the simple and plain type, like a quiet lake. Such themes are rarely seen in American movies.
Rancher Aina's only son was killed in a car accident, and he was immersed in the shadow of the great loss of his son, and it was difficult to recover. And Aina takes out her anger on her daughter-in-law, Jenny, who drives carelessly. For this reason, Jenny, who was pregnant, chose to run away from home. Years later, overwhelmed by her boyfriend's tyranny, Janie took her daughter Grave to the Wyoming ranch, to the home of her dead husband.
The film review tells the story of how the protagonists let go of their grievances and gradually learned to forgive and understand. Aina forgave his daughter-in-law; Mitch forgave the black bear who attacked him; Graves forgave his mother. Everyone is redeemed from forgiveness and begins a new life.
The plot is simple. Plain and simple dialogue. People may not be used to getting along too closely with each other, and often use rough words to expel emotional shyness. Possibly due to the harsh nature of the natural environment, one must make efforts to harden oneself. But more makes me feel that under the surface of seeming alienation from each other, there is a fragile and sincere core hidden.
Aina goes to her son's grave. He sat on the wooden bench beside the tombstone, talking to each other. The words are simple, but they can make people feel his helplessness and loneliness, his pain of losing his son, and his love for his son.
Aina rubbed Mitch's medicine and morphine every day to reduce the pain, took care of Mitch's diet, usually bickered with him, and the two sat on the stool outside the house chatting. Although rude, but they are deeply affectionate with each other.
The relationship between Aina and his granddaughter is more straightforward, teaching her to repair a car, ride a horse, milk a cow, and drive, these trivial things in life make people feel warm and pleasant.
Even when Aina held a grudge against Jenny, he still helped her. He learned that Jenny was abused by her boyfriend, and when the boyfriend came to harass him, he took a shotgun and beat the man.
The story is very lively. They live an ordinary life quietly. In their peaceful lives, they each have their own mistakes and unbearable pain. In the face of many scars in the world, they did not shout or complain.
The film is rare and refreshing, and there is a sense of relief after watching it. There are many disappointments in life: unloved love; jealousy; backlog of resentment; No matter what, it will eventually pass. In the barren world, the feelings that can be grasped are becoming rarer day by day, hold what you have, let go of hatred, forgive yourself, and be kind to yourself.
