Have you ever seen a funeral home deliver the wrong person when it delivers the body? Death at the Funeral is such a hilarious scene at the beginning. But it's not just a comedy.
The people who came to the funeral had their own small plans. The deceased's youngest son, Daniel, and his wife planned to move out. The eldest son, who returned from abroad, was a well-known writer but did not intend to pay a penny for the funeral. The niece came to the funeral to tell her father that she wanted to get engaged to her boyfriend, and the youngest son Daniel's friend came to the funeral just to see more of the woman he loved. Even the pastor who presided over the funeral rushed to the next event. The niece's boyfriend made a big fuss because of hallucinations caused by accidentally ingesting psychedelic drugs, and even overturned the coffin of the deceased.
Wonderful movies inevitably have the plot of dog blood. Suddenly at the funeral, an unknown lover of the deceased came out to share the inheritance. The difference is that this lover is a man. Yes, that's right, the deceased was a hidden homosexual. The secret will be uncovered at the funeral by the hidden lover, unless the deceased's son is willing to satisfy the lover's request for a 1500-pound inheritance.
Originally the youngest son Daniel was ready to take out the money to buy a house to his father's lover, after being ridiculed by the lover for his writing dreams, he tore up the check, and in desperation, the eldest son Robert could only tie up the lover, who inadvertently fell and touched the table and passed out. Mistakenly believing that the lover was dead, after discussion they decided to put the lover in their father's coffin and bury them together.
Just as Daniel was reciting the eulogy, the lover woke up and knocked over the coffin lid, and Daniel was busy trying to throw the lover out, and the photo fell right at his mother's feet. Eventually the secret they wanted to hide was still being discovered.
In the midst of the chaos, Daniel's roar turned the tide. Daniel gave up the prepared eulogy and played on the spot.
Although the father was gay, this does not mean that the father was not a good person. Just like the film, once a person has done something out of the ordinary, often we will automatically ignore all his goodness, just like a blank piece of paper, once there is a black spot, it will be infinitely magnified. But what we should remember is not only his out-of-character behavior, but also his kindness and generosity to all.
