The original is not necessarily the best.

Open the player, drag in big eden, and the first few minutes are like an ordinary American family romance drama.
Henry, who was forced to return to the town because of his grandfather's stroke, parried his grandfather Sam's ridicule helplessly and at ease.
He ran to the old house, and the camera kept advancing along the items at the door. I thought there would be a bloody plot similar to "Uncle P lives in the old friend's old house alone and waits for him to come back", but luckily it didn't. The camera kept moving, sweeping slowly in the room full of old days, of course, the only close-up was the photo on the mirror, the two big boys smiled warmly and intimately.
At this time, the emotional entanglement of this film is beginning to emerge, and I am still waiting for the appearance of Uncle P.
There is no dog blood here, there must be dog blood.
So when he was molesting the children in the kindergarten class, the one who happened to be sitting next to him was Uncle P's son, who had haunted him for many years. Of course, this is what Grace, the rotten auntie, told him on purpose.
The dreamy, unrequited lover is back in town, divorced and single, albeit with two cute little oil bottles.
The rotten female aunt is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp, lest the world will introduce Henry to a group of uncles in the small town, and at the same time ask Pike to personally help deliver meals for Henry and his grandfather.
I smelled rot as Pike's dog ran towards Henry affectionately.
Every time Pike faced Henry, his expression was stiff, or rather shy, but being too shy was affectionate.
Pike became more insensitive at Henry's house, and on the phone Henry also told his friend about Uncle P's return to the town. It turned out that the whole world knew that Henry had a crush on Uncle P, but only Uncle P was kept in the dark and treated him as a be best friends.
I always felt that Pike heard Henry's call and was alone eating toast with the dog.

After 23 minutes, Uncle P finally appeared, he gave Henry a warm smile, and Henry's hesitant expression showed that he had fallen into his own brain.
Also an aunt, Grace should have more love, and Mrs. Thayer only showed her noisy characteristics, and introduced Henry to all single female creatures like a tour.
Finally Uncle P couldn't stand it anymore, and the idea dragged Henry away.
When Henry was delivering Uncle P by the car, he looked like a family of four, and handed over the bento warmly.
Uncle P felt a little clue, and left with regret for the time being.

It is said that this side is sent away, and the other side is looking for Pike again, hoping that he can help buy some painting materials. As a result, in the chat of a group of uncle sauces, I found that Pike knew him silently.
The rotten aunt's intentions are so good, she couldn't bear to see Pike secretly in love, and finally seized the opportunity to hook up the two.
As a result, what I didn't expect was that the big man Pike seemed to be taciturn, but he could study the recipe silently for Henry, which once again reflected the theme of the show's "warm feelings".

After Pike was over, it was Uncle P again. A gentle slap on Henry's hip with a glove could make him slam his head against the car door for a long time. The panic of first love still applies to middle-aged uncles.
The noisy aunt brought a group of young women to the door. Henry couldn't help but say that he was gay, but he was complained by the aunt and the young women for a long time. Auntie said that he was a long time ago, and at the same time was angry that Henry didn't say it sooner.
From the aunt to the uncle, it is not difficult to see how peaceful and peaceful the people in this small town are.
And the big man shocked me again, saying "paint ordered by Henry", flipping through the cookbook in his hand, forcing the uncle sauce to catch fresh fish, and forbidding others to peek at him cooking.
On the other side, a family of four happily went to the beach for a swim. Although the uncle's figure was out of shape, the most important thing was warmth, bastard.
On the other hand, Pike seriously cooked food for Henry, but was embarrassed to sit down and eat together, so he could only go home and eat that old woman's bad meal with the dog girl. I feel very sad.
Continue to watch the old woman's matchmaker addiction, and replace the young women in the family with a group of promising young people, in order to successfully tie Henry.
Uncle P always appears when Henry is helpless, making homemade hamburgers, steaks, country music, and the clear sky. If he can dance to another song, what else can he ask for in life.
The two children of Uncle P's family have already regarded Henry as their own family, and Pike has temporarily replaced Henry to accompany Sam at this time.

Sombreros and country picnics always remind me of Texas and make me forget the world.
Henry and Uncle P at the dance were each other's dance partners, and the warm embrace at the door at the end gave both sides the answer in their hearts.
Perhaps the most difficult love is "love you hard to open in my heart", often the one who is loved is a little bit of an afterthought. The embrace of the two fell into Pike's eyes. Before he could speak, he had already lost his chance.

Henry and Uncle P, who started the conversation, acted as sweet as a couple, just as most American movies suddenly become cheerful about half the time. The progress of the relationship makes Henry feel like a spring breeze, but Pike still chooses to wait silently, gradually from the owner of the grocery store to the master of the kitchen. Pike started Uncle Sauce to help him complete the evolution of food, but he never dared to eat with Henry.
It's really funny to see the big man with his hair fried. He will go home to change his clothes and come back to eat for Henry's words "please".
What broke the duo's silence was Pike's knowledge of horoscopes and knowledge of mythology. Pike turned his usual reticence, and Henry was also moved, staring into Pike's bright eyes.

The plot after that is old-fashioned and funny.
Henry deliberately went to Pike's store on the pretext that he was actually talking to him. Unfortunately, Mrs. Thayer and the uncles were cooking Henry and Sam's dinner under Pike's guidance. Pike hurriedly took off his apron and went out to deal with Henry, while the uncle and aunt in the kitchen were frantic and excited.
Mrs. Thayer and the uncles divided into two factions, one side told him there was no hope, and the other encouraged him to continue.
On the other hand, Sam went to the hospital again, Uncle P comforted Henry, and the two embraced affectionately, but there was no way to continue. Straight people are straight people after all.

On Thanksgiving, Pike was invited to Henry's house for a potluck. Henry and Pike looked at each other from time to time. In my opinion, Uncle P should have also hooked up with the rotten girl Anna.
But the plot took a turn for the worse than I expected. Uncle P tried to try his intimacy with Henry again, but Henry refused. He's just a deserter of feelings, he just doesn't want to be an experiment in friendship or love. Finally, Uncle P said that he was his family.
Then, Henry brought the picture of Taurus to Pike, but Uncle P also came to Pike's store to find Henry. The uncles told Uncle P that they could go around to find them. As a result, Uncle P saw Henry who was smiling and stretched out in front of Pike. He left in a hurry, and the uncles looked proud. He sat in the car in a daze, just as Anna passed by. Uncle P was at a loss when he cried, and Anna got into the car to comfort him.
Henry bids Pike goodbye, and Pike expresses his sadness in a cold manner.
But by the time they meet again, it's time for Sam to leave. A runaway Henry burst into tears, and Pike wrapped his arms around him, giving him the only comfort he could give.
And then, Henry understood everything, and he chose to stay.
Talking very much, smiling happily.
In the end, the prince and the prince lived a happy life, and Uncle P and Anna became a couple, and everyone was happy.

In fact, I don't like this kind of recording method similar to the running account, because there is no way for a movie to be recorded in such a pale language.
The touching and internal injuries of each shot are far beyond what my words can describe.
And this movie made me watch quite squeamishly.
At first, I just looked at Uncle P, but when I looked in, I found that Henry's shallow dimples, fluttering eyes, and trembling eyelashes were also very appealing to me. It's been a long time since I watched this kind of tender film, it made me feel as if my heart has aged a lot.

This is a town that is quite tolerant of homosexuality. This is a peaceful and laid-back town where all the aborigines are. This is a small town where people have nothing to do and the greatest pleasure is to watch others looking for true love.
The uncle here can be instructed by an idiot who is in a crush and unable to extricate himself to go fishing, pancakes, and cook cappuccino, and the aunt here can introduce girls to men in order to satisfy their own desire for matchmaking.

I would rather it was a tragedy.
I don't believe that 20 years of obsession can be relieved in an instant. I don't believe that more than half a year is enough for A to let go of B to fall in love with C.
My ideal ending is that Uncle P and Anna are together, after all, he is straight. Then Pike made a serious confession to Henry, who left the town as a friend and returned to New York to continue his business.
When I saw the last paragraph I thought it was incredible.
First, Henry and Pike, and Uncle P and Anna at the Thanksgiving dinner table. It seems to me that Henry has secretly developed a love for Pike, and Uncle P has finally recovered his straight habits. As a result, Uncle P asked Henry to give him another chance and try again to see if their bodies could accommodate each other. I can understand Henry's rejection. After all, his 20-year obsession has been rejected once. But after Uncle P has said "you're my family", he will cry out of control because of Henry and Pike's intimacy. Then they hooked up because they happened to be comforted by Anna?
And Henry's 20-year obsession with Uncle P was just let go, and he could stay in the town for Pike, and when they finally ate country cheese and yogurt pancakes together, they could whisper and laugh. Pike, where did your shyness go before, was it stolen by the Na'vi? And as soon as Uncle P brought Anna into the door, he bypassed Henry and shook hands with Pike friendly. Was your previous tears just a dream of Nanke?
I think this is a good story, but due to the time management, the first half feels too sweet and the second half too abrupt.

PS: In fact, Uncle P is not Uncle P, but Uncle T orz. TIM DeKAY is the same actor as Peter in the white collar. The movie in 2001, when Uncle P was so young, he didn't even have any wrinkles on his face.

  • Grace Cornwell: Listen, you know what they say when you get lost in the woods? If you stay put, stay in one place and don't wander, they'll find you. And I was just hoping you'd let yourself be found this time. I was hoping you'd let us find you. But you keep wandering and we can't.

  • Pike Dexter: I just want things to be nice for him. I know it's foolish, but I just want things to be nice for him.
