The male protagonist of the film has a stinky face that strangers should not approach from the beginning, is short-tempered and irritable, and has troubles with his neighbors and pets. He has his own set of values, patrols the community at 8 o'clock every morning, and demands the same righteousness of others as he is of himself. Such a stubborn old man tried several suicide methods in order to follow his deceased wife, but he was always interrupted by the neighbors' tricks, causing a lot of laughs.
Before suffocating, he looked back on his life experience. He attended his mother's funeral when he was a child. His father gave him his love and brand of cars. When he graduated, his father died and the government caused him to lose his house. After losing his direction, he met on the train. Love. Happiness is as sweet as the heroine's smile and as lovable as her little rabbit teeth. All this was changed by a car accident. They lost their baby in the womb, and the heroine was in a wheelchair forever. The hero could not find justice in the accusation. Fortunately, the heroine said "Either we die or we live". ", her sunshine cheered up the male protagonist again. Love makes them rich and powerful.
I especially liked the way the male protagonist looked energetic during the first meal, surrounded by men who coaxed the girls into laughing, but Ove talked about the principle of the car with a serious face. what. I don't eat myself so that Sonina can order what she likes. The hostess doesn't ask him and she won't say anything. Just like running to build a ramp on a rainy day for Sonina to teach, Ove always uses his actions instead of his mouth. just saying. They seldom say love, but just hold each other's hands and say nothing.
The seemingly cool-toned community and Ove's angrily roaring or cursing routine can't hide his intention to always help others, rescue old people and children from fires when others are cowering, rescue the lost when others stand idly by rail youth. After the death of his beloved wife, even though Ove was old-fashioned and not sociable, he seemed to dislike everyone as idiots and knew nothing, but he put down his arrogance and pretended to be a bear to read stories to the little girl, teach neighbors to drive, and help with installation Dishwashers repairing radiators, teens out of the closet, and fat blue-eyed cats that no one has. The more tender part is that Ove repaired the bicycle and returned it to Sonina's former student. When he met a teenager who was wearing makeup, he asked "Are you gay?" Also grumbles about the fuss of the Iranian neighbors. As a result, the kid had to stay at Ovie's house because he came out of the closet and ran away from home. The next day, Ovie woke up and the other party had already made breakfast to invite him, and then they went on patrol together, and the two became three again. It's heartwarming to be a group of people.
Although I know that the opening scenes are all tricks to promote and suppress, but after filling Ove's character a little bit, this contrast is even more touching. As the little neighbor girl saw, only Ove was colored.
