Swedish director Lesser Holström's works are much more famous than he himself, and he is well-known in "Different Sky", "Chocolate", "The Story of Hachiko" and "A Dog's Mission". In the list, "Unfinished Life" is a bit silent. Lesser's narrative style is always calm and indifferent, hiding the waves of life in the rising and setting of every day. In this heartwarming and timeless work of beautiful Jennifer Lopez and veterans Robert Redford and Morgan Freeman, the director composes a simple and touching song of family affection. The beautiful grasslands in Wyoming are vast and beautiful, and in the quiet and tranquil farmhouse, the cat family and the simple noodles coexist in harmony. The leisurely bear in the distant mountains, after having tasted the taste of the cage in the conflict with human beings, ran happily under the cloudy sky again. These lovely and free lives in the movie reflect the lonely and stumbling life of everyone, although troubles The knot is constantly in my heart, and I still need to work hard to continue tomorrow. Granddaughter and grandfather, daughter and mother, old friends, lovers, friends, relatives, the first acquaintances and entanglements, and finally, along with the distant bear, all were forgiven and let go. A family movie that fits the mood very well. It is beautiful and comfortable, heals wounds, burns hope, and loves it very much.

An Unfinished Life quotes

  • Jean Gilkyson: I flipped a coin. Griffin fliped a coin and I lost. So I was the one who was driving. It was 3 o'clock in the morning and we were both tired. We wanted to make it in time for the rodeo in Great Falls.

  • Jean Gilkyson: I killed him, Einar. Is that what you wanna hear? It wasn't the change in our pockets, or the weak ass coffee, or the rain. It was me. I fell asleep and I flipped the car six times. I killed Griffin. He had no argument from me. You think it's something I forget. You think that I'm not sick with it, that I hate my life? But I tried to keep living, and you haven't. Is that why you hate me so much? You know, you act like I killed you when Griffin died.
