Books, no hypocrisy, no evil, move forward firmly

Love this tune so much.

I haven't read the original book, but a movie about a book should be like this. Time, in the movie, is like a river that has been flowing slowly. The old town and the old house have become the best footnotes of "The old house bookshop". Although, in the end, it will return to dust, but, isn't this the same as people, go to the end and disappear, this is the best ending.

Florence, the heroine, has an air of calm, firmness. When she appeared alone, she talked with some people for "the old house bookshop". Even though she encountered a lot of resistance, she did not hesitate in her eyes. Although she was lonely, she was firm. "Courage," in Brandish's words. Books have this kind of charm, so that lonely people are not lonely, and those who are hesitant are not hesitant. Her happy moments appear when she is with the book, and when she talks about her acquaintance and encounter with her lover. She is innocent again, regardless of the eyes of the world, regardless of the contempt of the world, and she is not afraid of the oppression of power. Although she seems to have failed in the end, she won a bosom friend, and at the same time planted the seeds of reading in a little girl's heart. So when he left, although there was still some loneliness, he never hesitated. Because reading makes us stronger.

There are many scenes in the movie that moved me. Brondig and Florence, their every interaction is incredible, but at the same time it is reasonable, and the emotional burst is also a natural progression. The first time we exchanged letters, we talked about books, one was a lonely widow, and the other was a "widowman" who was isolated from the world in the eyes of everyone. Originally, two isolated worlds were linked together because of "books"... The harmony of hearts is too important, In the impetuous world, social interaction and entertainment always become an addition to achieving a certain purpose, utilitarian, and this "faith" exchange in the film does have a power.

Approaching, death, every change touches the heart. Therefore, sentimental moved the courage to move forward, perhaps this is the charm of reading. Not only let life move forward, but also make life wonderful.

I especially like this old gentleman in the movie. Every time he faces the heroine, his hand is always clenched into a fist. His nervousness and his eager heart are simply too obvious. But I laughed when she came out for the heroine and lost her demeanor, but I cried when he lost his life because of it. Life is so impermanent, you won't let your life go on just because you meet someone worthy of love. Fortunately, the heroine cried so sadly because they met and understood each other's hearts before...

I like this movie very much. I haven't read the original book. If "Island Bookstore" is made into a movie, I hope so...

    As warm as the original, I always feel that the books bought in this post-war bookstore are all versions of the last ten years.
