What a beautiful but normal firm.

This movie leads us to see the true beauty inside human being whoever we missed everyday on the corner of street. It also gives us a little bit inside of the personality of the director. He does not like to judge people by their position, language or even the color of screen. I love the characteristics of Grandmother. Although she was not born in a rich and educational family, she had fate in her believes in God that every life is a gift. Her love is what we are missing and keep losing in our new generations.

But this firm also raised a interested question, a debatable and arguable that acted by the grandmother. She shared her past romance with her granddaughters. She dated whoever he is (marry or not) whenever she needed. I always believe that there is a line for everyone to follow which is our mortal sense. Can we just go date a man without thinking his situation? Can we just not to worry about the consequence that will be taken by our children silently and normally that we finally realized we are setting a bad example for them?

On the other hand, as the actor mentioned, live a little. That means life can be just that simple and easy. No need to setup a lots of rules to block us to enjoy everyday. But, without following the rules, we will not have a better view to examine ourselves what we are missing. It is difficult to maintain in the line but not be a prison of our mind.

I've watched this movie over 20 times but not tired of it. It reminds me a lots and refreshes me the life style.
