M: Do you ever feel lonely?
Chronology
A man quits his job to take care of his dying grandmother, motivated by her fortune. He plans to win her favor before she dies. This is actually the film debut of Usa Semkhum, a 78-year-old housewife, who plays the role of grandmother Meng Ju.
Amah: I wouldn’t call it loneliness
It’s part of the process of life. Amah: I have a problem with the day after Chinese New Year. When all the leftovers from the night before are in the refrigerator and I know I’ll have to eat them all alone.
Initially, I watched this movie to support the actor Billkin
But, now I really like this movie, be it the characters, the story, the production values, and everything that underpins the creation of this work. M, with all his attitudes and ways of thinking that then lead to every conclusion and decision, really manages to present a character that most young people can relate to, especially for me, who lives in an Asian family. The story of this film has managed to remind me that there are still many children and grandchildren who, as they become adults, have slowly been made to forget how much they were loved in their family.
This film presents the story of a family with various turbulences within it
Likewise, the busy schedule outside the home and life with a new family has made them increasingly forget the importance of the time they spend with their parents. It is important to remember that many more children and grandchildren actually distance themselves from their parents for various reasons, both consciously and unconsciously. Meanwhile, the parents continue to stay in the same place, watching their children grow, trying to accept their strengths and weaknesses and continuing to love them sincerely.
Finally, this is my first time writing a review on a movie
Without getting into big fights, but only through the delivery of dialogues, simple scenes and the acting of each character has managed to get the audience into the story and position themselves in the same position, perhaps with M, Amah, M’s mother, Uncle Soei and Uncle Kiang. I acknowledge my incompetence in conveying thoughts and opinions, but in the end I highly recommend anyone to watch this movie. Thank you.
