life sucks, but not all the time.

When I was living at home, I saw this movie from a small cable channel in the city. Like many TV dramas, the title of the movie is made in vertical white italics, and it is placed in the lower left corner of the screen. This movie is on the small color TV that is less than 27 inches in my bedroom, and it is regarded as Hong Kong and Taiwan n years ago. Played like a comedy.

However, it is actually said to be a low-budget film nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars this year.

The grandfather who was kicked out of the nursing home, the father who made a living by selling the "Nine-step Success Method" but was very unsuccessful, the mother who quit smoking while smoking, the gay uncle who committed suicide who needed to be supervised at any time, hated everyone, watched Nietzsche, The older brother who swore never to speak until he was admitted to the Air Force School, and this carefree, nervous little miss sunshine. This family, even without a screenwriter, can perform something on their own.
Critics say everyone can find their own shadow in this film. I watched this movie with such hope. As a result, I found that sometimes I was the mother, sometimes the uncle, and sometimes the brother. But I wish I was the little beauty who was always sunshine.

I knew that the father would not succeed later, and I knew that the elder brother would still speak in the end, but I didn't guess the ending. I thought they would give our little beauty a beauty pageant title, even for best performance. As a result, the family pushed a yellow van, broke through the roadblocks, and went home happily, just like this way, who cares about the beauty pageant award.

This is a bit different from an ordinary family film, at least not a pure family film, because the ending is not perfect, but who can say that everyone is unhappy with such an ending. These six strange people condensed almost all family problems. All the family members along the way have to come to an episode to hinder their progress, and even the broken van has to break a clutch to show their family. Member's identity.

So no wonder Americans always say school sucks, work sucks, life sucks, indeed, life sucks, but not all the time.

You can see that they always have a spirit of forging ahead. Although the word is a bit old-fashioned in the material age, the indecent dance, the support of the whole family, and the loud applause of the sound engineer at the end are very real and very hearty.

If you feel good about yourself, it is good.

Can I understand it this way.

ps: I saw a lot of familiar actors appear in the film, the most familiar one is the man who helped the little beauty sign in. He is the hoges in csi~~ Really cute person.

And ps: When my uncle first came, the little beauty kept asking questions at the dining table. Actually, think about it carefully, do people who commit suicide really have so many reasons to commit suicide.
