The episodes in the movie are very beautiful. The first half is a relaxed and happy tone, full of love and trust, which belongs to a typical American style; the second half is a sad but bright little song, sad but not sad, so that people can see the dawn of hope, such as Speeding Cars, Cold Hearts and so on; and when it comes to the ending song, there is a pleasant tune back to the beginning of Manhattan . The film’s dialogue is worth savoring slowly. People who don’t have some literary knowledge probably can’t appreciate the humor. It’s really a pity. The dialogues about growth and love are even more classics. This movie is not only about love, but also closely related to family affection. Indeed, love is not all of our lives. We have the same valuable family members, and we also have ourselves.
