1. This movie unfolds the story through the confessions made by two elderly people when they are seriously ill and are about to die. They both became famous and betrayed their relatives because of sex. One was incest with his daughter, which led to her daughter having a family. No return, world-weariness, drug use, sexual misconduct....one is infidelity to his wife,
abandonment of his family and children, which causes his son to hate women, treat women as playthings, take revenge on women crazily, and appear everywhere on TV and magazines Promotes his concept of conquering temptation. His lectures are full, indicating that there are many people with problems, which is a social phenomenon. The indiscretion of the two fathers has led to the deformed values ​​of the children. Here, the focus of the film is on the temptation and harm of sex. There is no need for coincidences here, what kind of cause has what kind of effect.

2. Two gifted children, one has been over half a hundred years old, has been used and finally fell into poverty, his IQ is high but his EQ is very low, he is a man, he likes Another man, who simply thinks that he will like him with a nice set of teeth, and risks stealing money for it, is a tragic
victim of mass entertainment; a growing teenager who goes on TV to please his father, But the most basic urgency was not allowed. After being rejected again and again, it finally broke out and stopped being your plaything! Dad, you have to be nice to me in the future! He will not repeat the same mistakes, which is what the movie wants to express 3.


The movie mentions the names of two women, Rose (ROSE) and Lily (LILY), they both love their husbands deeply and endure the infidelity of their husbands. These two women are the incarnation of purity, like flowers. As Beautiful

4, the police are the embodiment of justice and maintain the normal order of the society. He runs through the entire film, where he appears when there is a problem, he helps the irrational genius find himself, and uses the truth to make the drug addict uneasy He smiled calmly.

The tone of the whole film is dull and depressing, but the rhythm and picture are very urgent. Parents' money greed leads to the downfall of genius, father's debauchery leads to deformed children, and the temptation of money and sex makes people lose their nature, but true love They need to be cherished, and this is reflected when they are dying.

Why is the movie named after flowers? I think this is what the movie wants to express. Although there are various evils in human nature, it is generally good, and life is like flowers. It's beautiful, it shouldn't be so cheap.

Due to cultural differences, I can't understand the meaning of 8 and 2 and the specific meaning of the frog rain, but I personally like the shooting techniques of this film, dynamic shots, and Zhang Chi and force.

    8.9 The perfect combination of a hugely informative and emotional multi-line narrative script and gorgeous editing; let a rain of frogs wash away all the pain and regret in the world. This may be a cliché, but it is indeed the most I have ever seen. The weird and most romantic thing, many thanks to you, PTA.
