Life is a series of mistakes and constant self-salvation

At first, I thought Mrs. Shepherd was annoying, arrogant and ill-tempered, but when she was nibbling on bread in a dilapidated truck, it was heartbreaking to live such a bleak life in order to "get away from crime" Xiao, San Lun went to the beach to watch the sea, tasted the ice cream, and when she sat on the merry-go-round, people felt that she was very cute. Mr. Bennett's patience and dedication to Mrs. Shepherd over the past 15 years is really touching. After reading the comments, I found out that the male protagonist is gay. No wonder there are always little fresh meat going to his house at night? The naive old lady also said that it was a party of Communist Party members? This should be regarded as an easter egg, right?

    The story is good, Maggie Smith played very well. Adapted from real events, the fate of the protagonist is embarrassing. Gradually slipped from the high point of life, and finally even gave up on himself. What is the reason? The film didn't seem to go deep, and it also made the audience a little bit regretful. What I don't like is the way the film tells the story.

    3.6 stars. I like the performance of the old lady, the film itself is not bad.
