"I'm waiting for you in the rain", a peaceful pet movie

Plain and peaceful.

In the free time in the afternoon, enjoy a cup of tea and watch the movie quietly.

Similar to a dog's mission, its life is told from the perspective of a dog. In the beginning, Enzo was lying on the floor, narrating Mongolian legends. It began to recall its life, the daily life of living alone with Danny, running and running every day until meeting Eve. Enzo didn't welcome Eve, only to understand later that his fears were: Eve was like a rainy day that drivers were afraid of, which made Enzo overwhelmed. The car won't be fast if it's going to be afraid of rain, and Enzo starts to accept Eve.

Marriage, childbirth, and death, Enzo has experienced the birth, old age, sickness and death of Danny's family. He has always accompanied Danny. Perhaps, this is the meaning of pets. Pets and people accompany each other and go through life together.

The whole movie is straightforward. The main contradiction is the dispute between Danny and Eve's parents. From Danny's occupation at the time of marriage to the custody of the children after Eve's death, they are not completely opposed, close and contradictory. Whether their bickering or confrontation, grandmother giving up testimony, or Enzo's amusing revenge against grandfather and grandmother, there's a knowing smile that makes up the film organically.

Worth watching.

    The pet movie is really too good to cry. The two scenes at the beginning and the end are like large tear gas bombs. The reincarnation of a life is met again, and it finally fulfills its desire to talk and be human. Accompanying is really the longest confession. The film observes the various states of life from the perspective of a dog, speaks slowly and eloquently, anthropomorphizes his behavior, makes his understanding more vivid and straightforward, and the drama is more intense. It uses a short life course to accompany the owner's life. At an important stage, although the story is still a routine life-and-death plot, and the movie is extremely restrained and sensational, it still can't stand the resistance of such a plot. The rich language and words are transformed into moving images, which can even summon the softest part of the heart. , just like at the end the dog Enzo finally sat on the co-pilot of the owner, full of freedom and yearning, like a spring breeze! ★★★☆

    The best drivers focus only on the present. Never dwelling on the past, never committing to the future. "What if I don't win?" "There's no dishonor in losing the race, there's only dishonor in not racing because you are afraid to lose." If a driver has the courage to create his own conditions, then the rain is simply rain.

The Art of Racing in the Rain quotes

  • Denny: The car goes where the eyes go.

  • Enzo: Sometimes my life seems like it has been so long and so short at the same time. I feel as if I've lived for an eternity.

    Denny: [enters the house] Yo, Enz?

    Enzo: And yet it's as if no time has passed at all.

    Denny: [notices Enzo lying on the floor] Enzo?

    Enzo: I hear the worry in his voice.

    Denny: What happened pal? Oh, Enz.

    Enzo: I can smell the day on him. Motor oil and gasoline and roast chicken.

    Denny: Can you get up, bud?

    Enzo: I saw a documentary about Mongolia on TV once.

    Denny: [steps over Enzo and bends to rub hin] Oh... Okay.

    Enzo: In Mongolia, when a dog dies, he is buried high in the hills, so people cannot walk on his grave.

    Denny: [Rubbing him] I'm here buddy, I'm right here.

    Enzo: His master whispers into the dog's ears his wishes that in his next life the dog will return as a man. Not all dogs return as men they say. Only those who are ready.

    Denny: Let's get you up

    [picks Enzo up]

    Enzo: I am ready. I know death is not the end. Eve told me so. And I believe her. When I return to this world, I will practically be an adult the moment I am plucked from the womb with all the preparation I have done.

    Denny: [lays down on the sofa with Enzo] there he is.

    Enzo: I will walk among my fellow men, lick my lips with my small dexterous tongue and shake hands with a firm grasp.

    Denny: [rubbing his head] There's my Enzo.

    Enzo: And I will teach people all that I know. All that I have learned.

    Denny: [puts on tv] you okay now?

    Enzo: I'm fine Denny. I am.

    Denny: You've always been with me. You've always been my Enzo. First time I saw you, I knew we were supposed to be together. I love you boy.
