the joy of freedom

I like this film very much, it is warm, healing and touching, and I am very comfortable after watching it. Maybe it's because I'm full, I don't really want to eat chocolate. Actually, I like chocolate very much. At first, the heroine came to the town with a carefree smile, holding the greatest kindness to everyone, kind but with a kind of estranged politeness, instead, there was a kind of sage's falsehood, followed by the plot. As she develops, she shows more of the other side. She will also have confusion, anger, vulnerability and escape. She also needs the sincerity of other people in exchange for the support of her soul. In this way, she is more charming and real. The supporting roles are also outstanding. The poor man who suffered from her husband's domestic violence, from the beginning, was trembling and did not dare to even eat a bite of chocolate, until she was able to gather people and keep the heroine. The mayor's secretary was relieved from being overprotective of his son. The priest could only obey the mayor because of his limited qualifications, and later became a banner praising freedom. The mayor, who hated change and abstained from sex, finally faced up to his desires. Judging from his practice of expelling the man who set fire to him without hesitation, his nature was still kind. There are also lovely hosts, eccentric but also free and easy. The old man with the old dog found the new spring.

People must maintain kindness and empathy, and also have the freedom and belief to insist on being themselves. Don’t judge others’ lives at will, but also maintain a sense of justice and take the lead in the face of others’ suffering.

It is time to have fun. How insignificant the holiness of abstinence is compared to real pleasure. Learn to reconcile with yourself.

ps. Thank you. I even forgot that there was Depp in this movie. When he came out, all I could think of was that he was so handsome. Is Nima a goblin? I didn't expect Depp to be a vase one day? I skipped this film because I disliked his appearance, but now I know I'm blind, thank you.
