"Diet Men and Women" tells a story: Lao Zhu is the most amazing celebrity chef in Taipei and the head chef of the Grand Hotel Taipei, but after the death of his wife, he has to shoulder the responsibility of raising three daughters, but they have different temperaments. Full of rebellious personality, has its own problems. The daughters have gradually grown up, and the old father has gradually become unable to do what he wants, but his perfect cooking skills still maintain the harmony of the whole family. Dinner is the only time for family reunion and communication. Such moments are supposed to be joyous, but because of the "announcements" of the three daughters and the old father, every dinner is full of surprises: lightning marriage, investment failure, pregnancy before marriage, marriage after marriage. It not only surprised the people in the play, but also caused the audience's originally calm mood to fluctuate frequently. Every family has a difficult scripture to read. During this period, some people became pregnant, some were abandoned, some found true love, and some died. Until one day, the third daughter, who has always been the most well-behaved and unobtrusive, announced that she was pregnant; after the eldest sister announced that she had married her boyfriend, she jumped on her boyfriend's motorcycle and ran away before her father and second child could think about it. go. The second daughter, who wanted to move out the most, stayed in the old residence alone. It turned out that a complete home was broken like soap bubbles. At the same time, a noisy widow moved in next door to the Zhu family. She was obsessed with Lao Zhu all day long.
Maybe it's because of my age, I don't like to watch old movies, I don't think they have a good mix of handsome men and beautiful women, I have heard of the plot more or less, and the most important thing is that the picture quality is too bad, it always makes me The urge to pause. However, in a film and television appreciation class one day, the teacher showed the film "Diet Men and Women", which gradually changed my previous prejudice. When I first heard the name, I thought it was about chefs cooking. When the movie gradually led me into the story, I was completely moved by the story. Taipei's great celebrity chef Lao Zhu raised three daughters with very different personalities by himself. The grown-up daughters also began to have their own concerns. In order to maintain the harmony of the family, having dinner together on Sunday became every day. Zhou's custom, every day on this day, my father would start preparing a sumptuous dinner for the finale. The dinner, my father spent a lot of thought. The eldest daughter resists falling in love because her fantasy first love fails; the second daughter loves the kitchen since she was a child, but is stopped by her famous chef father, and resents her father. The little girl also has someone she likes. It is also this weekly family dinner that will become a fuse of contradictions every time. Until one day, an old friend of many years passed away suddenly, the clever and sensible little daughter announced that she was pregnant, and then the eldest daughter also had her own boyfriend, and decided to get married and move out. In the loneliness of getting old, in the end, the second daughter who most wanted to leave stayed behind the family. At the same time, a family of three grandparents and grandchildren moved in next door to the Zhu family. Old Zhu had a love affair with the daughter next door because of the lunch lunch box of the next door granddaughter. Great reunion. The ending was actually a little unexpected to me, but it made people feel very warm, and everyone had their own good ending. The cooking and cooking in the whole film makes people feel very homely, very real, as if you can smell the heat on the table. Although Lao Zhu doesn't seem to be able to express his feelings very much, his care and love for his daughter can be seen from his every move. When you get older, you will feel that the people around you are leaving you one by one, and your career is gone, but Lao Zhu has found his own fun, making lunches for little girls, which not only supplements the child's nutrition, but also has good Add fun to your life. However, I also have some feelings from the changes in the relationship between Jiazhen and Lao Zhu, that is, the misunderstanding and contradiction between parents and children are For those who need to communicate, they may not express their thoughts clearly because they are anxious, but I believe that everyone must have their own reasons. Don't wait until you get older and then regret it, or hold grudges for a lifetime, and cherish the short time each other can have. . It is said that this "Food Men and Women" is the "family" trilogy directed by Ang Lee. Although I have not watched the other two films, I know from the data that there are indeed some points to figure out in these three films. Zhu and a woman much younger than him have a "twilight love" similar to a father-daughter love. This relationship, which may be talked about and unacceptable in Chinese society, is also influenced by Western culture.
