Saying it is clichéd, the emotion that the film wants to show is not suspenseful; saying it is not clichéd, it is because I rarely see English films that can seamlessly combine family, friendship, love and youth. Rather than say that it is not easy to grasp the point is its failure, it is better to regard the friendship between the most holy truth in the world and the girls "the peach blossom pond is a thousand feet deep, not as good as Wang Lun's gift to me." as the essence of the whole film.
The four sisters met in the belly of their mothers. They were the beautiful and shy Lena_shy, the beautiful/unruly Bridget_wild, the unstoppable/rebellious Tibby_rebel and the narrator Carmen_writer.
The beginning of the story is very strange, a pair of ordinary jeans, unexpectedly suitable for four girls with different shapes. In the summer vacation that is about to part ways, they make three chapters about the cute rules for sharing jeans, 1. Do not wash them. 2. Do not roll up the trouser legs. 3. Don't say and don't think about whether you will look fat after wearing it. 4. Don't let the boy take off your pants. Of course, you can take it off by yourself in front of him. 5. No nose picking is allowed. 6. Proper etiquette must be observed during gatherings. 7. Correspondence with sisters all summer, no matter how happy you are. 8. Pass the jeans to the next sister on time as agreed. 9. Don't tie your shirt in your belt. The last one is still fresh; "the tenth rule: pants equal love, love your sisters and love yourself, to the pants and the sisterhood and this summer, and the rest of our lives, together and apart." Sisters, love yourself, for this pair of jeans, this summer vacation, and the rest of our lives, whether it's together or parting.
Tibby; Tibby's ideal is to use a camera to shoot documentaries, to shoot a peaceful and desperate life, and to shoot the roots of human existence. "……Like an ode to lives of quiet desperation, human existence at its lamest.". The girl she met in the play is suffering from leukemia. She is afraid of losing every second, but she is still facing life firmly. At first Tibby didn't know the girl's condition and couldn't accept her very well. Tibby told her that she already had three very good sisters, and it was impossible to be friends with other people. But the girl doesn't mind. She didn't want Tibby to let her join her documentary filming work because of sympathy. She did every interview and every suggestion with her heart, just like a normal person. When Tibby found out that his shooting was indispensable for a little girl, the little girl was dying of illness. Knowing all this, Tibby brought her jeans to the hospital to visit the little girl,"So I was thinking,you know,maybe you could have them for a while......None of it really matters......You have to let them help you,please .I know that you've tired,okey,but you can't give up.These pants will give you a miracle." Come to help you, please. I know you are tired, but you can't give up. This pair of jeans will bring you miracles.) Tibby was surprised by the little girl’s sensibility, she said, “It doesn’t fit my size ...But it has brought me good luck. She let me know you." When the filming of the documentary was finished, the little girl also left. Tibby named the documentary "Bailey", named after the little girl, in memory of the little girl. What the little girl brings to Tibby is not only the persistence of dreams, but also the word cherish, the true and profound meaning of this word that is already well-known, and the cherishment of life, time and belief.
Lena, went to the Greek grandparents' house this summer. After two generations, Lena had no choice but to quietly draw a sketch by the seaside and enjoy the charming Greek island scenery every day without a common language. Of course, like every love literary film, this is the best time to meet love. Lena was rescued by a young man because Lena accidentally fell into the shallow sea and his jeans were hooked by the reef and could not get on the shore. The young man Kostas fell in love with Lena at first sight, but it was a pity that the grandfathers of the two had a misunderstanding and had a holiday. Lena's grandparents, who are very taboo from dealing with enemies, certainly disagree with their relationship. Lena swears that the ministry will continue to associate with Kostas in order not to make them unhappy. However, nothing can hinder the spread of young love in the past and the present. They interacted "secretly" because they liked each other. The climax of the matter will eventually come, Lena and Kostas are still discovered by Lena's grandparents. It makes Lena sad,"despite everything he's suffered,he can still look at life in the most uncomplicated way.I've never known that kind of faith.It makes me so sad that people like kostas (lenad's favorite person) and bridget who have lost everything can still be open to love.while I,who have lost nothing,am not.
Bridget Bridget's mother passed away during a critical period of her growth. On the surface, she was wild and careless, but she was always blinded by a layer of hesitation and helplessness, until she was fanned by a football coach in the summer football training camp. Live, "Well, I might've been showing off for you just a little bit" "The wall does not look back") "Hey, come on, I'll race you." (Hey, come on, let’s run.) In order to attract the attention of the coach, Bridget behaved very charmingly in the training camp, even taking training. Players and coaches are not allowed to have serious feelings, so that the strong love will go smoothly. I really like Bridget's bravery and self-confidence. Shouldn't youth be like this? A little less restraint, a little more exciting. Although Bridget failed to get married with the coach’s lover in the end, the coach took pains to find Bridget, and the words in the meantime also relieved Bridget and us a lot," I just wanted to see what happened between us was my fault. Not fault, my responsibility.I should've known better.It's just,well,I didn't exactly tell you to slow down.Problem is,I wanted it for all the wrong reasons.……When you're 20 and probably a soccer star at some huge college. And there's a million guys after you, promise me you've give me a shot.
Carmen She is the narrator of the story, fat but smart. In the summer, regardless of my mother's advice, I insisted on going to my father's place for vacation. But when he arrived, he was told by his father that he was going to marry another woman and had two children with him. Unsurprisingly, before the end of the summer vacation, Carmen went home because he couldn't afford to stay in his father's new home. In fact, it’s a matter of course for her to be angry, just as she called her dad under Tibby’s advice, "Dad, you don't know. That's just it, you've never known, because I've never able to tell you……that I'm angry with you,dad.This entire thing.About you,and Lydia and the kids……It's fact that you've found yourself this new family and I feel like some outsider who doesn 't even belong to you anymore.It's like you traded me and mom in for something that you thought was better.And I wanna know why.Are you ashamed of me?Are you embarrassed?Just tell me,dad,
