May I be like a child, forget it when I see it; I may be like an old man, everything is empty

The tone of the whole film is the usual gloomy and cold British island country, just like Philomena's heart that has nowhere to confess for fifty years. In the church on the other side, she finally left the confession room because her heart was relieved - Anthony in the distance was not a drug addict, not obese, not a piece of wood she didn't expect, but a smart presidential counsel, the son in the photo Pillowed in his lover's beard, happy as if the piercing heart of another world has nothing to do with him. In the video of Anthony before his death screened at pete's house, even though AIDS is already raging, his sickness is very obvious in front of the hometown monastery, and he still smiles so happily. So Philomena can finally say to the nun, I forgive you.
If Martin hadn't found the harp that Anthony had attached, or even if Anthony, like Anna who had the same fate, had made a clean break with the past, had no thought of the distant Celtic homeland, and had no trace of belonging to his biological mother, perhaps Philomena Not really letting go. Mother and son are concentric, even if they are separated by oceans.
Although some people will never be freed for a lifetime, even if a nun who vows to serve God all her life is as stubborn as before when she grows old, how can she not feel ashamed and remorse in her heart. People misunderstood that retribution is revenge, so Philomena cried out when she forgave the nun. In fact, the solution of hatred was originally only to resolve their hatred and eliminate their hatred. The evil of others is no more than a trace of water. Fifty years have passed, and the vicious nun of the past is now in her twilight years, but her son's smile is forever frozen. Philomena cannot help but feel relieved.
is to remember.
