I'm really giving some sunshine now and it's shining

The introduction said it was "comedy", but if you go there in the mood to have a good laugh, you will definitely be disappointed. There are not many laughs... (I can get at least 70% of British humor).

However, during this period of time when my harem laid off staff, I just gave birth to the sadness of "why life is not as good as the first sight". Facing this theme of "returning to the beginning", it is inevitable that it will fall easily.

The film goes through a cycle of summer, autumn, winter and spring, from the hottest and restless season, through the mature period, the frozen season, and back to the beginning of all things. It corresponds to the short stay of Tam who ran away from the small town, and after he leaves again. , and finally found his true appearance, his place, and his true first love.

That house was Andy's, he was born there, and she and Andy were together before Tam had plastic surgery. There is no suspense at the end - because the film deliberately set a Hardy critic from the United States, and also recruited the BBC version of Tess to be the heroine. The latter may be unintentional, and the former must be Plant flowers with heart. Because Tam's experience is also a bit like Tess-Ben is impulse and desire, and Nicolas is lost after consciously losing his love-so almost from the beginning, it can be concluded that after the loss, the heroine will return to the countryside , and an ordinary but real home.

What makes people feel refreshed is the professionalism of the writers and directors in film structure, detailing and shot language.
The film begins with Andy piling, and the loud noises and young muscle men piercing the quiet morning suggest that there is a storm in this remote town. When Tam first appeared, it was stated that she had nose reduction surgery, Ben fell in love with her at first sight, Nicolas, who had humiliated her before, was fascinated by her after the plastic surgery, Andy was the only one of these men who had seen and accepted her original appearance. By the end of the film, it's Andy's piling scene again, when the fence is almost finished, which means all the chaos will end. Tam's nose is broken, and all relationships based on lies are gone.
In addition to the male and female protagonists, Jody and Cassey are not only the need to promote the plot, but also a mirror image. It is not difficult to imagine that Jody, who lost her father at an early age and "has a bad taste for men" like Tam, will grow up like Tam to go out of the town to pursue her dream of fame and fortune. I wonder if she will have the opportunity to come back in the future. And Cassey is the character who has grown the most in the whole play. From the beginning, she will only respond to Jody with no opinion until she insists on preventing Jody from doing "stupid things". We hope that when she grows up, in addition to being able and kind like Beth, she will Had better luck than Beth.
Even small supporting roles, other writers who have appeared and Nicolas's mistress may seem useless, but the words written by these writers at the beginning of the film together are what happens next in the film: love, sex, lies and murder. When Nicolas's mistress just arrived in the town and waited for N at the bar, Tam's car drove past. When she was sent away by N, Tam's car drove into the camera again. It is unlikely to be described in the original book, but in the language of the camera There is a clear hint of Tam's future relationship with Nicolas and its end.
In addition, for example, the scene where Tam opens the cabinet is telling the audience that her mother is an alcoholic, which indirectly explains why she is determined to leave. Feelings, Glen's rebuttal at N's party that "a good writer should be a big talker" is also a bit of a problem.

These are the extra benefits of movies over words—with one premise: the people who make them must be able to use them sensibly. Although I have talked to people that the British are probably not suitable for making movies, and their personality is a cover for dramas, but after watching a few smoky domestic movies on pps, I can not hypnotize myself "The plot is all clouds. "Don't be too outrageous about logic or anything." It's really refreshing to enjoy a real movie with the mood of watching a movie.

The only two that make me feel a little bit off: One is Glen. N deserves it (this scene can be said to be symbolic), he has lied to Beth for a lifetime, and after changing to Glen, Beth can't get the truth either. Maybe at some point, the lie will be better than the truth. As a viewer, I didn’t want him to ruin the happiness that was at his fingertips because of his glamorous nobility, but in retrospect, I always feel that Tam’s side has returned. Even the nose is broken, but it seems that there is no real breakthrough here. Then there is the pot in her hand when Beth received the photo. The audience must have guessed that the pot would be broken. If I were the director, I would not let the pot break on purpose (I would shoot the scene of Beth letting go, and then let it shatter. The pot fell on the cooking table, ha!), that shot is too old school too. Click

on the part where Andy walks down the mountain at the beginning of this film. In order to illustrate the background of the environment, I cut the whole picture of the town and the shot of the author's house into it. The fade effect is very BBC, I didn't care at first, until I saw Beth and exclaimed "good face and good face", after thinking for a while, I remembered "This is Tamsin Greig, Fran! I haven't seen you for many years, you and Black have not been involved. I'm so sorry to be together...you're as expressive as a small town housewife and a London madwoman~~~ I'm going to revisit Black Books!

    Is this a soap comedy parodying Mike Lee's "Another Year"? ! It's so merry...the other side of Britain

    The multi-line story is basically unremarkable, and it is reliable to keep it in the end.
