I didn't expect that I would be attracted by such a simple movie. Family and same-sex genres are always the genres that I contradict. I tried movies such as "Brokeback Mountain" and "Days and Nights in Tin Shui Wai" many times, and finally They are all stimulated by the bland and tasteless plots like boiled water, so even if these films are highly rated, I usually stay away from them.
I really didn’t plan to watch this film, but because I’ve watched the 83rd Oscars too many times, I can’t ignore the various nominations for this film. I also want to see for myself what this film is like. Glamour can capture the hearts of voters. It happened to catch up on a Friday night with nothing to do. At 9:30, when it was too early to go to bed and too late to watch a movie, I chose "The Children Are All Well", and I planned to watch it at the beginning, tomorrow The day continues, who would have thought to be instantly captivated by this simple story. This movie disrupted my long-term routine and subverted my notion of whether movies are good or bad by genre, so I gave it 5 stars without hesitation. Except for Disney and Pixar, there have been no movies for a long time. passed me.
Looking back now, the plot of the film couldn't have been simpler. The conflict between a long-married "husband and wife", two adolescent children, and a mistress. What's different from the past is that the parents of this family are a pair of Lala, and the third is the person who donated sperm back then, that is, the biological father of the two children. The appearance of the biological father disrupted the family order that had been functioning well. This father fell in love with his "married" mother without refusing to refuse, and even slept with N times. The incident was revealed, and he was expected to be disappointed and sad. , hysterical, and finally, the "married" mother lost her way, the "husband and wife" got back together, the guitar sounded, and the film ended.
Although the film revolves around the same-sex theme, the story told is no different from ordinary life. Children who are in their puberty are still rebellious, and there are still strong and weak points between husband and wife. There are stumbling blocks and trivial things in life. I still have a fresh memory of Julianne Moore's interpretation of marriage: Two people, slogging over the shit, year after year, getting older, changing. It's fucking marathon. It seems that as long as it's marriage, it can't avoid the last so-called " The fate of the grave", but why were they still together in the first place? Because of love, because of the need for a family, only such a life is complete. Perhaps for human beings, loneliness is always the most terrible enemy. Therefore, the vast majority of people, no matter how tall, fat, beautiful or ugly, will eventually find their own destination and build their own family. Westerners have been able to open up to the gender of each other, which was incomprehensible or even intolerable to me. However, this movie completely changed my concept. In fact, they are all the same. They are just members of a family, so why bother. Discrimination is the product of still backward ideas.
Of course, there are many, many other factors that make an otherwise beautiful marriage hell, and the film only shows us a very small aspect - the issue of the loyalty of both husband and wife. In fact, for example, the house that is being stoked hot now, the difference in status between the two, children and so on may be experienced by more people around me, no wonder so many people are afraid of getting married
... Very Good" not only made me stay up late to finish watching the movie, but also made me stay up late to write a film review, I had to be impressed by its charm!
