Can’t help but want to compliment the heroine who played Cynthia, who made a poor and despicable stupid woman full and lovable, and finally reversed the audience’s dislike of this character. Since she had done stupid things when she was young, she had also tasted it. Suffering, can only continue to live non-stop, accept all the evil results calmly.

The story is not fast and fast, and the trivial parents are divided into details: the contradiction between the confused single mother and the daughter who lacks a good education, the subtle interest disputes between the brother-in-law and the younger siblings and the secretive barriers, which are caused by infertility. The discordant relationship between husband and wife, the dramatic acquaintance of half-sisters, all the secrets and lies involved in it were exposed at the daughter’s birthday party. From then on, we bid farewell to the hardship life that was carefully hidden. After the analgesia broke out, it returned to peace after all. Poor, but also can enjoy the warm family affection.

The unintentional dialogue reveals the consistent discrimination of whites against blacks from time to time. However, in the face of common human emotions, skin color has become a topic of watering down.

    Mike Lee has the magical power of ingenious workmanship, and can weave humble living materials into a noble and gorgeous brocade. No concealment, no concealment, no rendering. He chooses to be highly refined, with condensed and long shots, to give the blue-collar class a gentle recognition; with documentary and steady brushwork, he outlines the catharsis of emotions, captures the imperceptible anxiety and warmth, in the dialogue and close-ups, and finally constructs A thrilling and dramatic orgasm.

    Mike Lee is a real master of realism. His depiction of the contradictions and plights between ordinary families and his care and sympathy for the difficult living conditions of the working class are no match for contemporary British film circles. This film attempts to explore the root cause of the huge conflicts between family members. At the birthday party at the end of the film, there is a 5-minute long outdoor shot, which shows Mike Lee's extraordinary skill in scheduling.
