Island Bookstore

If a film can clearly see the gender of the director or screenwriter, or the original author, how should it be evaluated? Prejudice?

Still in this male-dominated society, we are used to male voices, and a slightly different voice feels quite different.

Bookstore is one such movie, with a distinctly feminine overtone. The protagonist is also a woman, a struggle between two women.

Florence lives a secluded life, while her bookstore attracts the covetousness of the most powerful woman in town. The other party worked hard and finally drove her and her bookstore out of the town.

How the struggle between the two began. The movie doesn't say it, and I don't understand it either.

The old man's strange love for Florence and his sudden death. Maybe it’s better to have a heart-to-heart connection just when you imagine it in your heart.

    A simple story, a simple bookstore, not surviving is not the same as not struggling to survive, this is where courage lies.

    Strictly speaking, the female protagonist has become an absolute good person, and the contrasting others, all kinds of people in the town, have their own interests. The meaning of bookstores to people is something that some classes and some people will never understand.

The Bookshop quotes

  • Florence Green: We met at a bookshop, actually, in London. We were in love from the first moment. We had to organize the - organize and classify the poetry section together. He used to read aloud to me every night. Keats and George Elliot and Thackeray. "Never give a lady a restive horse." We loved that one. We were very happy. Busy doing a million things and nothing. And then the war came.

  • Edmund Brundish: What do you intend to do?

    Florence Green: Do? Is there anything I can do?

    Edmund Brundish: Yes! - No. Carry on.

    Florence Green: That's what I was going to do.
