The movie "Stepmother's Diary" was jointly created by directors Zhu Shimao and Zhu Shichun brothers, and interpreted the greatest - maternal love in a way that had never been seen before. At the beginning of the movie, Zhang Yi sells fruit for a living, the brakes fail on the way out of the stall on a bicycle, the kind single man saves him, and then the combination of two ordinary single families opens the prelude to the entire movie's "Stepmother".
The Stepmother's Diary
Stepmother Zhang Yi with a son, Lu Meichun followed her father, the four people fused together to become a happy family to live, but the good times did not last long, in the year when Lu Meichun went to middle school, there was a turning point that completely changed her life path - Mei Chun's father died of overwork. Mei Chun's father was most relieved before his death was the young Mei Chun, he asked his wife to make Mei Chun a talent, and Mei Chun's stepmother tearfully agreed.
After burying her husband, the stepmother, who did not have much culture, always carried her husband's instructions before his death, thought about it, thought about it, decided on a way to make her heart feel equally uncomfortable, and strictly demanded on her - "indifference" intensified the treatment of Lu Meichun. Lu Meichun was instructed to take on housework, for whatever reason, she had to work for an hour at the fruit stall she ran every day after school and then go home to make dinner and complete her homework, stipulating that she must be in the top three in the class at each exam. Lu Meichun's brother really can't look at it, although the sister is not born of the mother, but seeing the mother's "cruelty" and "abuse" to the sister, he also keeps beating for the sister. Every time my sister did not do well, and when my mother wanted to scold and beat her, she stood up to protect her sister.
Lu Meichun remembered her stepmother's tenderness and love for herself when her father was alive, how she did not expect that her stepmother would treat her like this, the sudden change of her stepmother made her feel afraid, and she firmly believed that a worldly law did not become a law - "the stepmother under the world is as black as black". Lu Meichun decided to run away from home, but where could she go, she did not have a penny on her body, nor did she have the ability to live alone, and the frustration deeply tormented her, so she could only hide under the eaves near her home and sleep dimly. The well-meaning brother found her, Lu Meichun decided to follow her brother home, and secretly decided in her heart that she must leave this so-called home, and from then on she was angry and strong, and the housework and fruit stall work required by her stepmother were all done, and she worked hard to be strong, and finally she was admitted to the famous university of her choice.
The stepmother learned that her daughter was admitted to college, knew her daughter's inner thoughts, made a good meal and took Mei Chun's father's layoff fee of 8,000 yuan and the household registration book on the dinner table, telling Lu Mei Chun that their fate ended here, and they did not have to go back to this home from now on, just go out to college and live their own lives.
Four years later, Lu Meichun thought of going back to her stepmother to get her father's urn back and return to the home that made her sad and disappointed, but her brother told her that her "vicious" stepmother had died, and the brother gave her sister the keys to her mother's room and a diary according to her mother's dying will. Opening the door of the key and turning the pages of the diary, a mother's hard heart and maternal love finally appeared in Lu Meichun's eyes. It turns out that the stepmother's lack of understanding and her "harsh demands" on herself are all good intentions! All the scenes in the past and the scenes in the present made Lu Meichun feel that her heart was bleeding, and the tears couldn't help but fall out and tear up and shout at her mother, as if to compensate for how she had refused to call her stepmother a mother in the past. Unfortunately, it was too late, Gu Meichun ignored her brother's obstruction, dragged her tired body back home and ran to the graves of her stepmother and father, and knelt down on the ground...
There are thousands of mothers, but great maternal love has no hard standards, only one theme - that is, to take care of children.
Although the truth came out and ended in tragedy, it felt that the front of the movie did not lay the groundwork for the stepmother's diary writing habits, and when the stepdaughter read the diary, she always felt that the director specially gave the diary behind the stepmother a kind of rebuttal, so that the editor felt that the throat choked and cried. Let the diary that appears suddenly become questionable. In general, it is still a very touching and warm movie, there are no particularly famous stars, no specially selected for commercial value, some are powerful actors, and superb acting skills, making the whole movie simple and not losing its essence.
