"Sister Tao" still starts the story with family, but what is special is that this is not a blood-related family. Sister Tao, a servant who has accompanied a family for two generations, still takes care of Luo, the second generation of the family who is a film producer. Jay, from the moment she suffered a stroke in her body, her role has also undergone a subtle change. Sister Tao and Roger are the core relationship of emotional brewing in the film. Sister Tao has worked in the Li family for decades and has established a deep relationship with the family. There are many social news in contact with similar bad relationships between masters, servants and nanny. In our opinion, this is a feeling that is rare and warm. The Li family is obviously very well-mannered, without the rudeness of the nouveau riche. Roger is also low-key, treats people kindly, and is even more grateful to Sister Tao. Come on, something fresh. In popular words now, "Sister Tao" naturally expresses a kind of "positive energy". After we have seen many kinds of reality and rumors that people are indifferent in society, and even relatives may turn over for a house, we are deeply moved. I was deeply moved by this feeling. Therefore, the warmth of "Sister Peach" is that in the hearts of the audience, there is also a yearning for this kind of beautiful feeling, or they also think that the feeling between people should be like this. He took care of him during the period, but when Sister Tao got old and became seriously ill, and it was Roger who treated her and died, shouldn't the so-called transmission and circulation of emotions be like this?
Xu Anhua gradually accumulates an emotional impact no less than the dramatic conflict in this film that does not seem to have strong dramatic conflict. After all, the directors put all their effort into devising dramatic plots, not just for the audience to resonate and identify with the audience. ? What's more, although Sister Tao's story doesn't have too many ups and downs, it tells about the short stories of parents who often make people smile or feel deeply distressed, and various social realities and problems are naturally manifested. Sister Tao spent the last days of her life in the nursing home, and this nursing home has also witnessed various phenomena of Hong Kong's aging society like a small society. There are people who are cared for by the government and spend the rest of their lives here; There are those who are not very old and only recuperate here because of their illness; some are struggling with the conflicts between their children; some are quite free and easy to make friends and cheat money to live a romantic life here. There is a saying in China that "the old come to the young", in this small society where the elderly gather, you can always feel the twilight of their old age, but also have the fun of playing like a child. And Sister Tao continued to spread "positive energy" in it, even if she knew that someone "borrowed money" for the sake of romance, she still tried her best to give it, because the people who lived here were all the people whose days were counted down, and there were more for the rest of her life. Reason to feel comfortable. Sister Tao has never been married, and has never even loved her deeply. This is a life feeling that she cannot make up for in the rest of her life, but she has no complaints or regrets. The Roger family has given her more gratifying care in her later years. Perhaps this kind of care is not enough. It was all she wanted, and she still accepts and appreciates it. This kind of loving interaction is very touching and makes us feel that under the warm interpersonal relationship, life can have so much brilliance, no matter for the living or the deceased.
I like the warm and sentimental process of the film, the occasional little humor, such as "Air Conditioning Repairman", "Aaron Kwok's Girlfriend", and Roger's self at the movie premiere that makes people fall asleep and exit the stage Jokes, all kinds of small bridges, make you feel a kind of small humor and jokes that people around you communicate with from time to time in your life, rather than deliberately "funny" laughter. Ye Dexian's performance is worthy of the series of honors she won in those years. She played a person's twilight years so movingly. Under the interpretation of her performance, Sister Tao makes people feel friendly and familiar, and looks like Roger. Sit with her, chat, and feel the calmness of this old lady for the rest of her life. Birth, old age, sickness and death are natural laws. After all, there are too few lives in which there are no regrets and no pain to die peacefully in sleep. Therefore, Sister Tao's last days were also accompanied by illness. Roger also knew what to do for the old man, let her leave as peacefully as possible, and gave her a peaceful and solemn funeral. The child-like and somewhat naughty smile stayed in my mind for a long time with this film. This is really a power of real life and natural performance, especially in the context of social conflict we feel today, the story of "Sister Tao" makes you feel that it is very ordinary, and people respect and love each other, no matter what Blood ties are like family. And the story of "Sister Peach" also makes you feel that it is very extraordinary. It turns out that between people, between masters and servants who have no blood relationship, there can be such sincere feelings that many families have weakened. "Sister Peach" cannot change people's anxiety about interpersonal relationships, even family estrangement, and even the intensification of conflicts, but it still shows another scene of life, a warm interaction and positive cycle of mutual care, and resolves social indifference , Start by showing caring to those around you who care about you.
