      Second time watching this movie

      Simply and smoothly narrate a story, a touch of sweetness, not to mention bitterness. This is the second time I watch this movie. After watching it after many years, I feel deeper and the contacts are different. The most touching part is the part of the long-distance relationship. I haven't seen it for many days. , John has been holding Sevanna's hand, not letting go all the way, it's a perfect match. I have also experienced different places, and I feel the same way,...

      The original is basically a storyboard script!

      As a reader who has listened to the English original several times, this movie adaptation is a huge disappointment to me! It's really incomprehensible that people's well-designed plots are abandoned in the name of Uncle Sparks. The original book is a pure love novel, which is really qualified. As a best-selling author with many works adapted for film and television, the plot of other people's novels is already very graphic. For example, John rode a horse when he went to Savanna's...

      Shit, love is letting go

      I found it by accident on the library shelf. It was interesting to see the title, so I took it out and spent two full mornings reading it. Reading the introduction is a pure love novel, after reading it, I found that it is really pure. Try to think back to the whole plot, it's kind of abusive. To be honest, I don't really like books that are full of love and love. I always feel that this is too hypocritical. When he is fully integrated into the emotional state of the characters in the book,...

      Thank you for being in my world

      Dear John is one of my favorite movies. I remember watching it 5 times without stopping while hiding under the covers. Every time I saw the most abusive movie, I cried and couldn't breathe. Even now that I open the book, my eyes have begun to fail.

      While on a beach vacation, John, a stubborn U.S. commando, stumbles upon Savannah, who is on a summer vacation. They...

      Those who love you will let go first

      At first, when I saw the film "Dear John" translated as "Breakup Letter", I couldn't help but sigh that it was really appetizing. It turned out that every letter written by the heroine to the hero started with Dear John. Letters full of affection, and finally the heroine took the initiative to propose a complete breakup letter. These letters also witnessed the emotional development of the hero and heroine.

      However, after watching...

    Behind the scenes gags

    The name of the film, Dear John, is an American slang that means a letter of dismissal. It was originally written as Dear John Letter, where John refers to American soldiers. The origin of this term is that during World War II, the fiancee or wife in their hometown could not bear the fact that their man was away all the time, so they broke up. The content of this letter is generally: "I have found a life-long partner, that person is...

    The film provides ample opportunities for the audience to appreciate Channing Tatum's broad shoulders and Amanda Seyfried's brilliant smile, but the narrative device that keeps them in touch with them thousands of miles away doesn't work very well on the screen. ( Comment on " Variety Show " )
    The film "Break Up Letter" carefully distills people's experiences and condenses them into a sweet and easily absorbed syrup. This may not be a...

    Movie quotes

    • John Tyree: So there's something else I wanna tell you. Right before everything went black, you wanna know the very last thing that entered my mind? You.

    • John Tyree: You're starting to make me a little nervous.

      Savannah Curtis: Why am I starting to make you nervous?

      John Tyree: Because I'm starting to think you might be too good of a person for me.

      Savannah Curtis: Oh. No, I'm not that good of a person.

      John Tyree: You're sneaking off every day to do manual labor on a house for charity. On your spring break.

      Savannah Curtis: Yeah, you're right. It's selfish, really, me being this generous.

      John Tyree: But no, seriously. You don't drink, you don't smoke.

      Savannah Curtis: Nope. Nope.

      John Tyree: You probably don't sleep around.

      Savannah Curtis: Absolutely not.

      John Tyree: Okay, look, you gotta have a fault.

      Savannah Curtis: I do.

      John Tyree: Okay, care to enlighten me?

      Savannah Curtis: I curse.

      John Tyree: No, you don't.

      Savannah Curtis: Yes, I do.

      John Tyree: I haven't heard you.

      Savannah Curtis: Well, that's because it's in my mind. There's a never-ending stream of curse words that I'm thinking at all times.

      John Tyree: Okay, fine, just say one then.

      Savannah Curtis: No, I can't tell you because it's filthy.

      John Tyree: Right.

      Savannah Curtis: Yeah.

      John Tyree: Okay, all right. Fair enough.

      Savannah Curtis: No, I have faults, John. Trust me, I have plenty of them. You'll see.

      Savannah Curtis: I hope so.

    • Savannah Curtis: The problem with time, I've learned, whether it's those first two weeks I got to spend with you, or the final two months I got to spend with him, eventually time always runs out. I have no idea where you are out there in the world, John. But I understand that I lost the right to know these things long ago. No matter how many years go by, I know one thing to be as true as ever was - I'll see you soon then.
