Generally speaking, I don't like watching foreign movies very much. I usually watch the most domestic comedies. Once I was bored, I went to search for movies with high douban scores. "I don't like the life of pine nuts" is printed in my eyes. I opened the film with the mentality of killing time. But watching it, I was completely attracted by the plot inside.
Matsuko's life is unfortunate. Since she admitted stealing money, her fate has been deflected. This deviation has both her own reasons and family factors. Dad's infinite partiality towards his second daughter made Matsuko try his best to amuse his father and finally ran away from home in a quarrel.
The reason for pine nuts is that she completely pinned her life on men and let her suffer betrayal again and again. There is a scene that I remember particularly deeply. Matsuko fell in love with a barber. She thought she had finally found her happiness, but she was put in prison for killing someone before. Meeting the barber became the belief that supported her to persist in prison. But after she got out of prison, she found that the barber had already remarried and formed a happy family. The pine nuts collapsed. Finally, the death of pine nuts ended the whole movie, and also ended the tragic life of pine nuts. After reading it, it's really super chilling.
