The elegance of the French is carved into the bones, beyond gender, age, occupation... Stemming from the desire for a better life.
The last issue of the film recommendation, to introduce you to the charm of "ordinary years", this issue continues to recommend those who tell us the story of daily small lucky "Afternoon with Margaret".
I've seen this movie more than once.
The first time I watched it was when I was a student, and the first feeling I felt when I read it was that I also wanted an old lady like this to be a confidant and friend, to be able to share reading bits and pieces, and to be able to make reading so pure. Not for utilitarianism, just talk about liking.
The second time, the specific time should be after graduation work. At this time, we see not only the elegant old lady, but also the lucky life encounter of the hero.
I think that every encounter in life is not easy, and some inadvertent encounters may affect your future life trajectory.
The third time I read it, I wrote this recommendation today and revisited it again. Repeatedly tasting the lines, characters, and plot in the film, those small details that were originally ignored such as: planting vegetables, cats, flowers, books, once again splashed ripples in the heart...
I want to see if you here like me, like to brush the same movie over and over again?
Some movies, I will habitually brush it every other time, different time periods, the feeling will be different.
Broken thoughts are over, recommended to begin! First of all, let me tell you the reasons for recommending this film:
1. At the request of slow friends. A long time ago, a slow friend asked me to recommend a slow life movie, and I actually haven't recommended a movie for a long time. Because watching movies seems to me to be a very personal thing, I see that I like it, and others don't necessarily like it. Now that I have decided to recommend it, I suddenly feel that if what I like can positively influence others, it is also a beautiful thing. Then this movie, which is really slow-paced, beautiful and warm.
2. The story is moving. This movie tells the story of an old lady who has passed the age of her back, reading the story of her encounter with the male protagonist in the park, and then a series of beautiful small blessings that happen between the two are touching. These little stories of good fortune, like pearls, illuminate themselves and others.
3. Recently, I have been collecting various daily small and fortunate contents. Floating life, how you live a day, how to live a lifetime. An old lady who spends her afternoon every day to read in the park, in the twilight of her life, even if it is just reading idle books, can infect people. What kind of elegance do you need to keep yourself reading independently? Seeing such a life scene, I believe that no matter how difficult life is, you can also open up your own tranquility!

Filmography:
Chiman (Gérard Depardieu), an obese, vulgar but kind man in his 50s, lives in a motorhome by his mother's garden, tends to the vegetable garden, hangs out small bars with his friends, and sometimes lives a peaceful life in a small nest with his young girlfriend Annette (Sophie Gisèle Casadesus). Yet there was an unknown fragility and bitterness in his heart, and his mother conceived him without wanting him, never knowing who his father was; the teachers mocked him for his stupidity; and the buddies liked him but often laughed at him. The girlfriend wants a child, but he has refused to agree because of his inferiority, resulting in a tense relationship between the two.
One day, in the park, Kimman meets Margaret (Gisèle Casadesus) who is raising pigeons while reading the chapters of the novel aloud, and his barren head begins to sprout. The knowledgeable Margaret was a retired agronomist who spent almost her entire life traveling the world and reading literature. From then on, Keyman gave the afternoon time to Margaret's reading...

"Very beautiful, about reading about the text is also about warmth, fresh and beautiful."
"Reading makes the world soft, and life turns ignorance into wisdom."
"Warm edition of "Readers", I hope that when I grow old, I can be so calm and elegant, calm and self-assured."
- Short review of the film
" Classic . Lines
Sometimes I think that I should leave my heart empty for unrealistic daydreams, trips in books, simple and direct trust in people's courage, and gentle and warm care of love. One day, when this place is visited by one person, whether we can spend the rest of our lives together or not, you will be the only lover.
How to imagine a city without pigeons, without trees and gardens, without waving wings, without rustling leaves, such a gray world, everything is established.
People look at the sky to know the change of seasons. When the warm breeze blows, we know that spring has come. Or maybe it's the basket of spring flowers that the cargo man brought from the suburbs to make us feel the spring that is only available in the market.
At such a young age, at a sensitive stage, it is difficult to be so admired, which makes people look forward to it. We seek, expect, and wait.
Slow friends who like this film hurry up to take advantage of the upcoming National Day holiday and brush up on the film. Ask for the old rules of resources, backstage private message me Ha!
Attached: Poem at the end of the film
Chinese Version:
It's not an ordinary encounter.
There are no other adjectives than love and warmth
She lives in the name of flowers in words
In the winding adjectives, in the verbs of the warbler flying grass long
Some people just broke free, but she won with softness
Penetrates my body, up to my heart
In the story of love, it is not only love
Sometimes, there's not even a single "I love you."
But we are still in love
This is not an ordinary encounter
I stumbled upon her on a bench in the square
She was unremarkable
Like a little white pigeon, with her delicate feathers
She lives in words, circling in mundane words like I do
She gave me one book, and then two
Pages flashed before my eyes
Don't wither, there's still time, wait a minute
It's not time yet, my little flower
Share more with me, share some of your life
Wait a minute, in the story of love, there is more than just love
Yet we are deeply in love.
