Why can't we give this kind old man some flowers?

An old man who looked down on new technology and didn't like to accept new things, had been immersed in the research of flowers all his life, until the rapid development of online shopping forced him to close the plantation. The ridicule and indifference of his wife and daughter made him even thinner, and the plot afterwards seemed to be hooked with drugs like the old white of "Breaking Bad". The original intention of both of them was to bring money to their relatives. A better life, but Earle didn't make a desperate move like Lao Bai. This story is really slow! During the 12 drug transport journeys, Earl’s relationship with his family was changed. From the very beginning, I only thought about the blooming of flowers for only a short day, so I had to deal with the gardener, and finally, even with 305 kg of cocaine and the threat of late delivery, he had to go home without hesitation and accompany him to death. The gray-haired old man whose wife spent the last moments. When he told the special agent who had just forgotten his wedding anniversary about his experience of the supremacy of family after he had lived for ninety years, we knew that he finally understood that what he owed to his family was not fame or money. It's time and company.

    What suspense, what horror. The gloomy and solemn tone of the poster made me mistakenly think it was a crime drama with bitterness and hatred. Who would have guessed that I laughed from the beginning to the end, and the ending was tearful, just like the feeling of watching "The Perfect World" more than 20 years ago. Grandpa Dongmu, I hope you live more years, we love you.

    Hardcore old driver. Originally a person who likes to show off, at the beginning of the orchid fair, his character and background were vividly displayed: outside he is a flamboyant, showy, and capable old man, and he is humorous and full of charm and affinity to outsiders. A great friend and work partner; but he is domineering, fidgeting, and even avoiding some inherent problems with his family. To a certain extent, he is a bit like my grandpa (at least in terms of the impression he gives to his family and outsiders), so the choices he made later are very self-consistent for him. Needless to say, the motivation is very strong, the action is effective, the editing is clean and neat, and the lines are also very well-designed, which effectively promotes the plot and makes people feel very reassuring. , and has a unique sense of joy, I am very happy to see it, full of the temperament and style of Lao Dongmu. It is said that because he cooperated with his family in this film, he also appeared in the premiere with his illegitimate daughter who has not been recognized by his family for many years and reached a reconciliation, making the film more like a reflection and summary of his personal experience.
