Food

The people regard food as their heaven. I have always recognized and even practiced. I have always enjoyed the state of dealing with things in the kitchen. The feeling of slowness, step by step, from preparing the necessities and ingredients to washing and cutting vegetables, to boiling water, heating oil, cooking, and stir-frying...

The kitchen was full of food all at once, even if I didn't eat it, it was full of satisfaction, no regrets no matter how tired or suffering.

Well, back to the point, the film. As a foodie who loves food, I feel it at the beginning of the film. The hot oil pan, the skillful chopping technique, the fragrant delicious food is out of the pan...

In fact, Master Zhu's hard work at home to cook these delicate foods is nothing more than hoping for harmony and happiness in the family.

However, the hearts of the older generation and the younger generation are naturally different, and there is a "generation gap" in consciousness and values.

Gradually, the children grow up and become families, have their own focus, and forget the people the family originally relied on. Their focus is on love, life, work, and society, and the family's time in their hearts is getting smaller and smaller. But the life of the elderly is gradually getting smaller and smaller, and gradually there is only home.

In fact, no one is willing to stay at home for this whole life, but the reality is like this.

In the camera, a father and three daughters. A Christian who has been hit by a university and languished, a smart, stubborn and strong woman who can only have a lover but not a lover, and a ignorant girl who has just fallen in love with someone else's boyfriend. The four experiences, which slowly unfold in the diet, are not just a few simple stories, but more of a kind of culture, a kind of emotion, and a kind of reality.

    84/100 Let me just say, Lao Zhu's taste loss is a neurosis, caused by sexual repression. Later, when he remarried, the repression disappeared and his taste was restored. When will the Chinese film industry have an independent and refined royal sister-type actress like Wu Qianlian appear again?

    The big director shoots trivial things, like Pao Ding, every knife is just right. This knife is easy to do in the story, and there is no trace of firework. When the story comes to an abrupt end, you will feel that the story is still flowing somewhere in this world.
