Simple and positive life is really happy

I want to talk about why I watch this movie first. In fact, I have seen clips in many places before, and every time those clips make me feel very warm, I just happened to be planning to cut a video about Valentine’s Day in a few days. , I simply stayed up late to watch it a few days ago. After reading it, I felt that I was too impetuous compared to the protagonist. It is necessary to have a positive, optimistic and peaceful attitude to face all the challenges of life.

The whole movie tells a happy story of a male protagonist who is a milk deliveryman who falls in love with a female protagonist who is a maid by accident and stays together for a lifetime. The male protagonist is optimistic, always able to see through the female protagonist's careful thoughts, and is also very down-to-earth, able to tell the female protagonist his own situation, but at the same time, he can create small surprises in life. Although the female protagonist is a maid, she can always point out the problems in many things. I think she is a person full of life wisdom. I can feel it in several conversations with the male protagonist about the trivial life and the current affairs of the country, but the character is still paranoid. It can be seen from the attitude towards his son.

Simple and beautiful life is nothing like this!

Ethel & Ernest quotes

  • [first lines]

    Raymond Briggs: [voice over] There was nothing extraordinary about my Mum and Dad, nothing dramatic, no divorce or anything, but they were my parents and I wanted to remember them by doing a picture book. It's a bit odd really, having a book about my parents up there in the best seller list among all the football heroes and cookbooks. They'd be proud of that, I suppose, or rather probably embarrassed too. I'd imagine they'd say, "It wasn't like that," or, "How can you talk about that?" Well, I have, and this is their story.

    Raymond Briggs: [with Jean, looking at the full grown pear tree in Ethel and Ernest's back yard] I grew it from a pip.
