I was bored on Sunday. I searched for videos on station A, and I saw the word "warm feeling" in the recommended list of movies that I couldn't resist. The winter without heating is too cold, so it is suitable to watch some warm movies.

The movie is a beautiful story of a little girl and her mother who is dying of cancer, and a chef Mr. Church comes to the house. The movie is based on a true friendship. Mr. Church was entrusted by his mother's lover to take care of their mother and daughter for six months, because the mother was told that she could only live for six months. Unexpectedly, the mother miraculously lived for six years, and Mr. Church continued to take care of them. , until he sent away his mother and sent Charlie to college.

Mr.Church in the movie seems to be able to do everything, "He is either cooking or playing the piano, when he is not playing the piano he is painting, when he is not painting he is reading, he could have been anyone and do anything. , but he chose to be their chef." This is Charlie's description of Mr. Church, to her mother is the sun, gives her warmth, is the person who loves her the most in the world. Mr. Church is like the moon, gentle and calm. Mr. Church brought a lot of books and let Charlie, who doesn't like to read, read a lot of literary masterpieces through the "library card". When cooking, he always played jazz on the tape recorder. It's the portrait of her mother in Mr Church's posthumous relics, and the scene of Charlie sitting with her best friend and eating cake as a child. Always seems to be a gentleman. Although Charlie is not a father, but he gave her a lot of love and liked a scene very much, when Charlie came home on the school bus and saw Mr. Church waiting on the side of the road, she already knew that it was her mother, and Mr. Church put her arms around her. Her shoulders, the tacit understanding between the two, and the backs walking on the road are clearly the existence of each other's family. After many years, Charlie returned to his hometown to find him out of wedlock and pregnant. He opened the door for her, didn't ask a question, and just took care of her as always.

And Mr. Church was mysterious to Charlie, Mr. Church never said anything about himself, and every time Charlie tried to spy on his privacy, he was furious, yelling that his privacy would be respected. Later, when Charlie's daughter was born, Mr. Church continued to take care of their mother and daughter, and the days went on like this, and then Mr. Church fell ill, and she took care of Mr. Church. That's when Charlie realized that all these years Watching Mr. Church cook for them, I had already learned it subtly. A stranger came to Mr. Church's funeral. He claimed to be Mr. Church's friend. He was the owner of a bar. Every night Mr. Church went there to play the piano. He never knew that Mr. Church could cook. It's like Charlie doesn't know what Mr. Church goes out to do every night. Both the mother's funeral and Mr. Church's funeral in the movie have the same passage: at the funeral, some people don't talk about anything but the dead, some only talk about anything but the dead, some people try to comfort you, But there are always people who say nothing because they don't have to. The whole movie is about love and companionship, the warmth of life. Charlie has always been grateful to Mr. Church for taking care of them, and in the last Mr. Church's letter we know that Charlie they also gave Mr. Church everything he wanted, love, security, a home, and we've given him a home from every The next night, when Mr. Church came back drunk, he learned about the estrangement between Mr. Church and his father. It seemed that he could not meet his father's expectations. He got a sense of security from Charlie's mother and daughter. So sometimes giving and receiving are mutual, and they are grateful to each other. There is also that friend who just got his driver's license but was sentenced to use public transportation for life because of the death of another person in a car accident. After Charlie fell pregnant and fell down, he put the car key in again. Charlie kept saying that he saved their mother and daughter. , he said that if he hadn't met Charlie that day, He was going to kill himself, so their mother and daughter saved him. Redemption is mutual. The whole movie just tells you a story in such a bland way that you didn't even know that the time span of the movie was so long at first. It turns out that so many things happened inadvertently. Looking at it like this, it doesn't feel annoying, and it can also make you feel warm, and you will feel a knowing smile when you see it at the end. The pictures of the movie are very warm, which is very suitable for watching in winter leisure time, so that the time will pass little by little with the film.

    The older I get, the more I like this kind of sincere, flat but powerful movie. Mr.Church is an ordinary person, but also like a mystery that no one has ever understood. He could be anyone and do anything, but he chose to cook for them, dedicating all his patience and tenderness to the family. He is like the moon, quiet, gentle, unhurried, always guarding, and relying on you when you need it. Companionship is the longest confession of love.

Mr. Church quotes

  • Charlie: People act strange around death. There are those who talk about everything... but the person who died. Those who talk about only the person who died. Those who try to cheer you up. And those who can't help but make you cry. And then there are those who say nothing at all. Because they don't have to

  • Charlie: It's an awful feeling to love someone so much... that you absolutely hate them for leaving you. Even before they've gone.
