‘The Devil All The Time’ is Gritty and Bleak
Gritty and bleak are the best words to describe this film. There’s nothing happy about it.
The Biological Mother
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Aunt Tang, a villager from a small town in southern Jiangsu, resolutely gave away her own daughter to protect the descendants of the female cadres of the New Fourth Army. In the battle with the Japanese army, Tang Songniang's biological son Tang Songlin died sacrificely. Tang Niang held back the pain of bereavement and cooperated with the New Fourth Army's stubborn resistance to the Japanese invaders, and finally ushered in victory.

There were too many irrelevant parts that could have been shortened, and too many characters that didn't advance the plot. Either way, some things didn't add up.
