The Cider House Rules

I always prefer nostalgic movies. Under the melodious background music, the protagonist sees things and thinks about people, and remembers scenes of warm past events, and the softest part of his heart is always touched gently. Thinking of "Paradise Cinema", people will always run away in search of dreams, but the place where they will find dreams in the future is always their hometown. Relatively speaking, the protagonist of the film seems to have realized earlier, reincarnates faster, and chose to return without making any achievements. The outside world is wonderful, the outside world is very helpless. The girl who fell in love is a friend’s fiancée, and the pregnant worker is the sin of her own father. There are inexplicable and unobserved rules in the bedroom. This kind of experience always makes people feel comfortable. Confused and helpless. What's interesting is that the male protagonist could have become a promising doctor, but he went out to be an apple picker. This contrast is not Ji Kang's cynical cynicism, but Americans were pure-hearted at the time, far less impetuous than they are today. Utilitarian. I wanted to see the outside world, so I ran away; I finally understood what I meant, so I returned. The so-called life career is so simple.
