Jin's Dad Jokes.

When Life Gives You Tangerines

This drama is so unique in it's storytelling. I'm watching it with my mom and I told her that I love how the pacing isn't in any order whatsoever. It feels natural, almost like being told by memory. And memories aren't always in chronological order.

It reminds me of sitting with my grandma in the garden, asking her stories about her childhood, starting from when she was a little girl to when she had my mom and my uncles, to her own siblings, then to her marriage. It leaves me with the same fluttery feelings, all warm and joyful. Yet the drama also offers so many perspective about life, about how people become when they grow up. As kids, we had big dreams and even bigger ambitions, but then as adults, we just try to do our best. Sometimes we fail but we try to make do and give ourselves a little bit of grace. Because this is our first life, everything is a first time.

The episodes just wreck me every. single. time. I don't think there's ever been an episode where I didn't cry. So many of it is just being grateful to my parents. I know I'm luckier than most, and I know that sometimes I'm a brat who doesn't appreciate it enough. But I know that nobody else would love me as much as they do and no amount of gratitude would ever surpass everything they did for me. Oh my God this is turning out to be so sappy. But I think that's exactly what the drama wants us to realize, that life goes on and always goes on. Don't have too many regrets. Tell your parents you love them. Find a partner who would treat you right, who would be your ally and your friend, someone you'd want by your side even if the whole world comes crashing down. And love yourself deeply(!!). When you do all this, everything just follows.

Needless to say I love this drama. I believe it's one of those that'll stick with me for a very long time.

Another reason I respect Sinners is how Pearline is treated.

She is a married woman that sleeps with Sammy, when she dances and sings she does it in a seductive/sexy way but she is never treated or viewed as a negative figure. She isn’t a whore, or a slut, and she isn’t viewed as a temptation to Sammy.

In fact, the only part of the movie where you are supposed to disagree or (maybe) dislike Pearline is when she doesn’t want to eat the garlic. The movie makes us grieve her when she is killed.

Any other horror movie would have given her a brutal death, it would have been “deserved”.

Instead, Sinners goes out of its way to show that she is a human being, and despite her sins we love her. Decades after she is killed, Sammy names his bar after her despite knowing her for one day. The movie honors her.

my personal design of ethel!!! she is a country bumpkin and we love her @mothercain
