There is no innate nobility, who knows repentance, knows kindness, and does not shake the principle of nature because of difficulties, so he can be called the "Godfather".

Miyuki, Ahua, and Jin have been together in the world for half a year by chance. The scavengers were originally scavenging and scavenging, plus a little subsidy to make a living, how could they raise another child they picked up?

Kim and Miyuki united front, showing their attitude to send the child to the police station. But the shemale A Hua is reluctant to let go. Although she cannot bear children, her greatest wish is to have a lovely daughter.

Ah Hua proposes an unrealistic idea to help the baby girl find her biological parents. She had to personally question how the deranged couple felt about their child before she could truly let go of this god-given heart. The situation is actually not optimistic. First of all, the three of them don't know where to start, and the clue left to them is just a key to a storage box. Furthermore, they do not have enough funds to support their rush to find their way.

But the "exploration" still started like this, just like the godfather's redemption, you must believe in God and convey God's will.

There is no need to describe the chaos of a journey like this without any planning. In the beginning, it was all about tossing a coin to decide how to find the parents of abandoned babies. The world is small, and the world in movies is even smaller. After rescuing a gangster's big brother, they learn that the boss of the abandoned baby's mother is the big brother's son-in-law. But the mother of the abandoned baby had already quit her job in a nightclub, and she has nowhere to go.

One of the clues just broke.

But after that, Jin unexpectedly found a landscape photo in the "house" of an old homeless man, and found clues in the photo dug out in the locker. They found the address of the couple, and they didn't expect that the tea had already been taken away. Seeing that this clue was about to be broken, he found the new address of the abandoned mother, Sachiko.

However, Ah Hua vomited blood and collapsed on the road. They came to the hospital, and Jin met her daughter who was a nurse (with a look of disbelief). The world in the movie is really a small world. For Kim's happiness, Ah Hua left him, and Miyuki and Yuki continued to look for Kiyoko's parents. But the note with the address was on Jin, and they could only wander around, accidentally saving a woman who wanted to commit suicide by diving by the bridge. When the woman saw the abandoned baby, the frustration on her face suddenly dissipated, and she wanted to hug the abandoned baby. It was supposed to be a touching scene of mother and son reunion, but Ah Hua slapped the woman hard and asked her with a serious face why she was so cruel.

The woman explained without blushing, even I believed that this was her child. If Jin hadn't ran to Sachiko's new address, met Sachiko's husband, and learned that the abandoned baby was stolen from the hospital, I'm afraid the movie would have been stuck here.

The three who learned the truth chased Sachiko all the way. It was not until the very end that the abandoned baby was finally handed over to the biological parents, and it was finally completed.

I think these three people are the "Godfathers", their natural principles and their kindness are invaluable. And the abandoned baby is probably really as the movie says, a lucky child.

Pay attention to the public number: meet bridge

    The mainstream Christmas movies in the UK and the United States are over. Transgender/homosexuals, homeless uncles in mid-life crisis, runaway teenagers, people who are most far away from the concept of "home" in mainstream society are connected by a baby, and they are connected to each other. The family and family love story, and then involved several other family tragicomedy, the structure is exquisite, the story is forceful but easy to carry

    In fact, this and many other Japanese animated films such as "Mind Game" later peeled off the skin and wanted to express "the so-called daily life we ​​spend every day is actually a succession of miracles." The lowest level is Yuasa. Zhengming's audio-visual pollution is a lot softer. One by one coincides with each other. It is a bit romantic, but it still has to rely on the bottom people, losers, rebellious girls, transgender people, the pain of bereavement, etc. There are slightly deliberate elements, and the creation of some coincidences is also very rough (such as dodging a runaway truck during a dispute). Do you think "Lucky Star" only relies on cute culture and otaku culture to lightly reach the same depth, isn't it smarter? And "everyday" that "do whatever you want without breaking the rules" is really a ceiling. I am very cute Miyuki's style of painting, plus four stars.

    Gin: Okay, so I'm trash, but you're ugly!

  • Gin: I want to get rid of some trash.
