Before watching it, I thought I was watching a nonsense comedy, who knew that the first half was so depressing.
Grandpa: I take drugs and fuck in front of my family all day long.
Father: On the verge of bankruptcy, as a loser in society, selling his own way of success all day long and indulging in it.
Mother: Described as haggard, divorced once, and eats junk food for the family all day.
Uncle: Boyfriend left him, lost his job, failed to commit suicide.
Brother: In the period of youth rebellion, he was banned for being a pilot, he had no girlfriend, and hated his family.
Sister: She looks mediocre, but she is fat but wants to be the queen of beauty.
What would the family be like without that Miss Sunshine race? First the father went bankrupt, the mother divorced again, the older brother found out he was colorblind during the pilot medical examination and then either committed suicide or fell into suicide, the grandfather died of a drug overdose, the uncle committed suicide again This time he succeeded, the fat girl was humiliated for her dream and then Follow in the footsteps of my brother.
But this rotten family caught a straw when it was about to fall into the abyss. Yes, a straw can't save them, but it can give them hope to get through this together. There is an idiom in China called "Fu Ji Tai Lai", when things get bad to the top, things will get better. Although the death of grandfather did not help my father's work, my brother's dream of being a pilot, and my sister's beauty pageant journey, it made everyone fall in love even more.
Although it didn't have the bad ending of the sister who won the Miss Sunshine title by surprise, the sister was the real Miss Sunshine, and she brought a ray of sunshine to this gloomy family.
But how many real-life families get their MissSunshine at the right time? Only God knows the answer.
After reading it, I remembered what Monica said to Rachel in the first episode of "Friends": "Welcome to real life, it sucks, but you'll love it.
