a world without complaints

Florencio 2022-04-20 09:01:46

Philomena has the right to complain, she believes in God, but what has God brought her? Because of her unmarried pregnancy, she was imprisoned and worked seven days a week with no rest. The child was sold to the United States by the church. In 50 years, several searches were unsuccessful. The church knew but did not tell her. Life was cruel enough to her, but she faced life without complaining at all. She praises everything around her, is grateful for everything around her, and does not hesitate to use the most gorgeous language. And the calm "I forgive you." at the end made her kindness sublime. . .
Finding her son's whereabouts is the only wish of an old man like her for the rest of her life! What she wanted was not for her son to retire or to bring him back to Ireland. The only thing she wanted to know was whether her son, whom she thought about every day, also missed her. So she embarked on a journey to find her son. For an elderly lady who doesn't know if the drinks on the plane are free, it is very difficult to travel, but she still goes. There have been twists and turns in the search process and confusion. First, the nuns deliberately stopped him, and then learned of his son's death. Even so, the old man still wanted to get some news about his son's death, but it was still difficult. Whether it was a work buddy or his sister who said he hadn't even mentioned a word of her, not even Ireland. At one point, she even felt that her son was someone else's Michel, not her own Athony. Of course, there were some misunderstandings due to the church's gossip, so that the son's lover did not want to see them. . . Of course, like most stories, she still found some fragments of her son's life. Unlike most stories, after his son died of AIDS, he was buried in the church where she was imprisoned. He was born here and grew up to be 4 years old here. He said that his happy childhood was not true here. His mother was humiliated here. will be better. Maybe things in the world are just such a twist and turn. You think about it every day, and the person you are looking for is not far away, maybe in a place not far from you, quietly waiting for your arrival. . .
Some people exercise their righteous evil under the protection of God, and some people sublimate their goodness from their hearts under the persecution of religion.
Philomena is God's, which she admits herself. She also believes that having a child out of wedlock is a sin, and her work is a redemption. Even in the United States, she wants to go to church to repent, but she does not shy away from telling Martin, The sex is good. She doesn't regret what she has done, and she can even accept her son's homosexuality causing AIDS very calmly and calmly. I think such people understand the true teachings of religion, not restricting your actions, not allowing you to spend money to make deals with God. The meaning of religion is that it makes people do good, and let them have a heart Facing the world around you with a grateful heart allows people to face their own life, and even the lives of others, with a better attitude.
Philomina has her own hobbies, reading - romance novels. In the electric car at the airport, she chatted and talked about the novels she had read with relish. Martin wasn't actually interested, but she still didn't mean to stop. Maybe when we are watching this paragraph, we will feel that this story is a little long, and feel as impatient as Martin, but in fact, stop and think about it, have we ever felt impatient with our parents and elders talking eloquently ? Phil is an ordinary old man, an ordinary mother, she shares her happiness, maybe others are not interested, but she thinks her happiness is shared with you. Maybe we should give them a little more patience. At the end of the film, sitting in Martin's car, Phil began to share another novel of hers. Although the camera did not explain it, I think, this time, Martin will give her enough patience.
Because I said so much before, I don't want to mention that "I forgive you" in particular. What I'm referring to is the line, "I wouldn't forgive you". Martin said these words from the perspective of a non-stakeholder. Sisters, what the church does is indeed very easy to cause public outrage. Martin's words may represent the voice of the vast majority of the audience. We Such behavior will not be forgiven. This also reflects the rarity and greatness of a person who truly understands religious teachings, while those "Messengers of God" wearing nuns' clothes, perhaps, only understand the surface and form.
Maybe, some people will think that I just praise this kind old man blindly, but she is pedantic after being brainwashed by religion, I can't agree, if someone brainwashes me, teach me to be kind, understanding, tolerant, not complaining, grateful, share. I would. Yes, I do. Thank you!

    The overall tone of the film is gentle, and even at the moment when the emotional cohesion is strongest, it still maintains moderate restraint.

    Dignified yet relaxed, full of affection but not sensational
