I saw this movie when I was 15 years old, and I thought it was okay at that time, but I couldn't appreciate the emotion in it, so I gave it a three-star rating.

Three years later, my grandma started to have mild Alzheimer's symptoms. During the New Year's firecrackers, in the noise of relatives and friends, she sat quietly by herself, wondering if she was in a daze. She wouldn't call me like before to ask about my current situation. Even when I went to see a doctor, she looked at me for a while before asking me tentatively, are you xx?

I haven't seen the movie again after 15 years, but a clip of this movie has been replaying in my mind lately.

A good movie is empathetic, and I give it four stars this time.
