    Secrets cover up lies, but are the only solution to keep life going. It's not perfect, it's reality. The foreplay was steady and steady, and as the suspense unfolded one by one, the scene of exposing each other was full of explosive power. 1996 Cannes Film Festival Palme d'Or, Best Actress. The third Mike Leigh work I've...

    Mike Leigh, UK. But with one word, one excitement can lift the grievances accumulated in the heart, the secret rots in the heart, first becomes a lie, and then becomes a secret, until one day, the secret is revealed and life begins anew. Soothing music from beginning to end, throughout the film, downplays contradictions and conflicts. There may be a key and a lock knot in everyone's heart. Palme d'Or...

    Life seems to be unhappy, a rebellious daughter, a fragile mother, an orphan who is looking for her biological mother, a man who is busy at work and his conflicted family. The search itself is a kind of retrospection, picking the fruits of the past against the direction of life, the lost time will not reappear, the lost childhood will not come back, but it still leaves a warmth, breaking through the family relationship of secrets and lies. Love, let everyone pick up the Rongrong...

    The best thing about Mike Lee is the characterization, which is deadly critical in such a typical group play. He hardly uses complex structures, and almost only uses the most traditional narrative mode to make the film full of human feelings, which is due to the great compassion in his bones. All kinds of people, happy or not, still have to live. Of course, the theme of secrets and lies is well implemented. The only regret is that the reveal link is too direct and it is suspected of being...

    The photographer is taking a profile photo of a blonde who turns to the other side a few seconds later, and the audience sees a scarred face. Life is often such a "scar face". Don't try to hide it, but face it bravely and...

    Under the torrent

    There are always emotionally unstable, restless, lonely, and even crazy characters in Mike Lee's films. For example, the single mother Cynthia in this film, such as the tramp in "Naked", such as the lonely patient Mary in "Another Year" that everyone hates. In addition, Mike Lee also has a story...
