Expounded in chronological order, using the first person "I", and using flashbacks to review the story of his family. The story takes place in the turbulent England. During a milk delivery, Ernest, a milkman full of sunshine, happened to be shaking by the window. Dusty Ethel, the two met and looked at each other several times, and gradually fell in love. After Ernest took the initiative to knock on the door and send flowers to Ethel to express his love, the two began to date and meet their parents. Finally went to the palace of marriage and became husband and wife. Then, like an ordinary family that can no longer be ordinary, he worked hard to earn money to support his family. As "I" Raymond was born, grew up, went to work, got married, and had a family of his own, his parents also slowly grew old and turned to another. The world goes. During this period, the family experienced a series of problems such as war, economic recession, son's rebellion, etc., and still maintained a stable life. The film "London Family" shows the most ordinary family in the most real and simple pictures. The true appearance of life, whether it is in the story or in the shaping of the characters, does not reflect the words "ordinary and ordinary". Dad Ernest: Sunshine positive, romantic, loves to read newspapers, tolerant, full of family responsibility. Mom: Gentle and considerate, diligent, sensitive, sentimental, good-natured, occasionally likes to brag about the pride of her family to neighbors, occasionally complains about life, and bemoans her son, she is a typical "little woman". "I" Raymond: I love to play like an ordinary child, full of curiosity about the world - have my own cognition, pursue the idea of my inner self, be uneasy with the fixed arrangement and status quo, have the courage to break the shackles of the routine, and pursue own love. The characters and experiences of this family are all like those of an ordinary small family. Often in the most ordinary things, they can better reflect the warmth of a family and touch people's hearts. People always like to go for a stroll in the flashy world, in pursuit of the inner pure land; go to the complicated places to find the fireworks of the world and seek the warm medicine that heals the wounds in the heart; go to the unfamiliar direction to feel the warmth and warmth of human feelings, but it is all over again. It was bruised and bruised all over again. For ordinary us, birth, love, marriage, childbirth, and death are a series of life changes that cannot leave any trace in history, and we ourselves know that our life is not unique. But when we make it into a book or a movie, we will see that in a long and short life, we have been the protagonists of the years, and our stories do not have the beauty of twists and turns, and there is no brilliance. The shocking beauty of the world, but it has its own plain beauty. When we have exhausted that kind of life, and look back on this kind of life, we will see that even such a dull time, we did not have to live by it, but carved it into a dazzling diamond with cherishing warm hope and enthusiasm.
