Synopsis
Do-seong (Yoo Min) is a child monk who lives at a small mountain temple with the head monk (Byeon Ki-jong), learning the teachings of Buddha. He becomes attached to a young widow (Choi Eun-hee) who comes to pray at the temple, and the childless widow entreats the head monk to let her raise Do-seong as her own son. Conflict ensues when Do-seong's real mother (Kim Seon-young) appears, but she leaves the temple for the sake of her son's future. On the day the widow is to take the child down from the mountain, the head monk discovers that Do-seong has killed a bird by ensnaringit in a trap and decides not to let the boy go into the secular world. When Do-seong finds out that his real mother has been to the temple, he sets out to find her.
Notes
"A film that has garnered recognition for its cinematography and direction by eliminating sentimentality and unaffectedly capturing the quiet life of a mountain temple. A Hometown in Heart demonstrates the camera technique and directorial skill of movies that appeared after the liberation of Korea."
A Hometown in Heart, adapted from playwright Ham Se-deok's A Little Monk (Dong-seung), was hailed upon its release as "a masterpiece that marked a new pinnacle in Korean moviemaking after the liberation." Eschewing new-school sentimentality to quietly express a boy's longing for maternal love, the film unfolds the everyday lives of three generationsthe head monk, a young monk, and a little child monkagainst the backdrop of a quiet temple in the mountains. The long shots utilized by director of cinematography Han Hyung-mo to capture the beautiful scenery of the mountain temple from a distance received great critical acclaim at the time. Also, each of the film's characters is convincingly portrayed through the skillful direction of Yoon Yong-kyu. In particular, the scene which expresses Do-seong's desperate yearning for a mother's love and his birth mother's past visit to the temple by combining them into a dream sequence reveals deep consideration for articulating story and emotion via a compressed visual grammar without tending toward sentimentalism. The movie's final scene, in which Do-seong awakens from his dream and sets off down the path in search of his mother, is both touching and beautiful. The film also features Choi Eun-hee, in the part of the young widow who warmly embraces Do-seong with her love, in one of her first roles.
Afterword:
- Lee Kang-su, writing under the pseudonym of Kwak Il-byeong, first adapted playwright Ham Se-deok's A Little Monk (Dong-seung) into a screenplay, which was then shot for the silver screen with additional embellishments by the director.
看过小品但依然被惊艳到了，对妈妈最后的部分简直是神来之笔
看得出来是想表达对逝去亲人的感情，但整个表达方式太像春晚上的小品了，不停地强行搞笑和强行煽情，但剧情合理性的设计却置之度外了。
魂穿是老套到不行的题材，但是却拍的很有新意。
通俗，朴实，也笨拙。因为贾玲的创作姿态没有摆得特别高，倾诉方式平易近人，没有克制煽情，反倒让情也成了更真的情，是能走入人心的，就连大张伟唱的片尾曲都不再欢快洗脑，“世上最美好的祈祷”，这是喜剧人的忧伤。
一开始还以为是韩国小说改编，误会这部电影了。 很成熟很稳得片子，从英子伸手去接我的宝儿开始一路哭到结束，讲了一个好故事，希望贾玲可以弥补一份遗憾，妈妈一定为她骄傲。
终于有空看了这部电影，或许是期待值太高了，并没有想象中那么好看，最后的反转稍微有一点生硬，故事完整性也一般。赢在档期和引发人群共鸣感
“我宝”
你死了你妈才会更开心，你成为今天的样子难道都怪你自己么，子女不教父母之过，以爱之名互相自欺欺人，你如此垃圾又干嘛要无条件包容你，一开始还算好笑，后头如此乏味如坐针毡，结尾强行闪回煽情主角哭个不停，我却哭不出来，死了才来反思有个屁用，左边有个小孩被另一个小孩嘲笑眼中有泪，他说是冷的，没错，冷的，这年头眼泪真值钱，喜剧就好好让人笑，从头笑到尾行不行，怀念比利·怀尔德，女儿同年轻时母亲相遇想起全度妍《人鱼公主》，我不要我妈多么爱我，我要她更爱她自己，片尾曲张小斐《萱草花》，萱草花是中国的母亲花，又名忘忧草，
电影没让我哭。但看完电影后隔壁7岁左右的小男孩因被电影感触抱着妈妈哭泣让我忍不住泪目。
她和她母亲都是伟大的，她们都值得五星，如果有10星，我还是会打满。
😭我算是懂了什么叫真情实感的创作了，哭稀了，多的不说了。
牛逼！笑的时候让人开怀大笑，触动的时候让人眼角湿润。整个电影的立意也很好，在女性导演的电影中，英子年轻时简直太美了。结局的反转让人震撼，牛逼！
大年初一，早上9点50，一个人，影片结束飞奔出了影院，生怕让人看到我哭红的双眼！ps：全程笑了100多次，哭了十分钟，谢谢贾玲！
穿越不是意外，而是与千万次的祈祷撞个满怀；离别不是空白，只是换另一种方式回到未来。无法执手那一段红毯，就任你安排疯狂的青春。难以出席这一场演出，就陪你谢幕荒诞的舞台。幸福不是更好的选择，而是自愿的奔赴；喜剧不是繁杂的堆砌，而是真诚的书写。
如果客观评价，确实不够成熟，可整个观众席都哭成狗谁还顾得上客观？能让每个人代到自己就已经成功。有些故事，即使猜得到剧情照样让你一秒破防，因为人生早就写好相同剧本，不可逆的大结局，生而为人见者有份。从英文片名出来就开始崩溃，因为进电影院前刚决定不回我妈的消息。第一次一个人过年，以欺骗家人的形式…冠冕的理由有很多，却没有一个可以粉饰负罪。没有让她高兴过一次的贾晓玲就是我自己。想说的有很多，好像都无意义。高中也和同学讨论过，怎么还清父母的债，她说只有下辈子做他们的妈妈…这竟是所有人都做不到的朴素愿望？想从带她看一场电影开始，这件说了很多年的小事，希望这一次我能做到。
焕英阿姨啊，你女儿小玲现在可有出息了，你在天上看到了吗？
诚意很足的一部影片 情节基本都能圆回来 80年代的质感也做到了 四星没问题 为贾玲加多一星
其實後半段的轉折不是太好，因為這是女兒以為母親不知道自己，而母親卻已經完全知道，並且迎合女兒的慾望，所以女兒希望母親嫁得好一點恰好是極其父權的，母親自己明白自己想做什麼，而女兒真正接觸的是母性大他者——那個能滿足自己，但是自己要「滿足」大他者，卻發現其失落——大他者不存在，大他者只是給主體自身的定位罷了，也因此只有定義為姐妹而不是母女，這部電影才算得上佳作，後半段煽情也因此顯得有些多餘了。或許在疫情期間，這種電影就已經是佳片，不過這顯然不是好事。
今年春节档最好看电影，笑点真的很密集而且不是那种是尿屁段子，全场基本都在大笑中度过的，剧情不复杂但是最后给人带来的感动就像前面的笑声一样，能在这样一部真正有笑有泪的电影看到真诚。张小斐演得真好，贾玲第一次当导演能导出这么高好的片子真的很厉害，用心又真诚
也不禁思考李煥英除了母親的身份剩下些什麼 說是少女到底還是母親的身分成全了作者歌頌的偉大 其實有在被預設感人的「母親」身分的自我犧牲中感到一絲不適
