      Rachel Getting Married--Half Cliché, Half Sentimental

      First of all, I have to say that I don't like this name. Not only is it not creative, but it also doesn't fit in with the protagonist of this film. The only feeling is that it is rigid, dull, and nothing new. Compared with these mainland translated names, our compatriots in Hong Kong and Taiwan have much more vivid thoughts. "Lolita" is translated into "A Tree of Pears and Begonias", and "The Sound of...

      Because she's Hathaway

      Rachel's wedding.

          Watching an Anne Hathaway movie every week recently, revisiting or opening up.

          In today's film, the shaky footage and documentary-style shooting methods are unexpected. There are no exquisite pictures, beautiful costumes, romantic plots, even smooth rhythm and clear tone, life is dull, melancholy is suffocating, fortunately, Hathaway is bright no matter what, except Bright, she never struggled to express her melancholy, but the sheer appearance of...

      There is nothing that cannot be given and forgiven

      What I see is a father who loves the whole family and protects his two daughters with a shy face; a sister who is hard to come back, worried about being discriminated against but hopes to return to the big family; a lover who is about to marry and does not want to see this wedding being The younger sister who has returned from drug addiction is the older sister who destroys.

      In the early morning, Jin Mo, who had returned for a short time to attend the wedding, was about to embark on...

      past, present, and future

      An unexpected film that depicts a family's conflicts and love-hate feud with clarity under the blur, shaky, and dim light. The whole film is enveloped by a gloomy atmosphere, but also cheered by the grand wedding, full of love and hope. At the same time, the carnival portrays and strengthens the heroine's loneliness from another angle, and the pain of lack of love and unable to extricate herself. A loving wedding reflects a desperately unloving, struggling back.

      The storyline is...

      lonely family

      At the end, the tears fell on their own. In the afternoon of thunderstorms.
      Delicate descriptions, true feelings.
      Similar to the trajectory of my own life.
      The conflict between the family members lies in their different starting points.
      Kym's life is all about caring about other people's opinions because of her own fault, and Rachel feels that she lacks the attention of her family.
      The outbursts, the layers unfolded, the euphoria at first and the hysteria that followed,...

      I really hate the way of shooting pseudo-documentaries. It seems that the movie is very rough. Then the cut also uses the way of pseudo-documentary. Goddamn thing. Are you a homemade DV! Do you dare to make a homemade AV! But the plot is...

      It's not just Kym who has problems in this house, it's Rachel and everyone else. I can really feel the torment of Kym, the feeling of being expected to not exist by the family, if Kym is because she has made mistakes, then what is it for...

    Shooting process

    In order to be able to highlight the conflicts and contradictions in the film, director Jonathan Demme let all the actors, including the behind-the-scenes staff, completely break away from the traditional film production method, and let the camera record everything that happened without doing anything. With the advance arrangement, even the cameraman Declan Quinn himself does not know what kind of images he will capture. He can only...

    Movie quotes

    • Walter: [opening lines] I want my fucking Zippo now!

      Rosa: Walter, this is a behavior...

      Walter: [ranking his nails against his forearm] Fuck you!

      Rosa: And you are making a choice.

      [Rosa's cell phone rings]

      Rosa: Hold on... hello?

      Walter: God!

      Kym: Don't you get it, Waldo? *She's* making a choice not to give you your lighter because you'll torch the Self-Help library again.

      Walter: It's Walter. Kill anybody recently? Run over anybody with a fucking car?

    • [Kym speaks at a twelve-step meeting]

      Kym: When I was sixteen, I was babysitting my little brother. And I was, um... I had taken all these Percocet. And I was unbelievably high and I... we had driven over to the park on Lakeshore. And he was in his red socks just running around in these piles of leaves. And, um, he would bury me and I would bury him in the leaves. And he was pretending that he was a train. And so he was charging through the leaves, making tracks, and I was the caboose, and I was, um... so he kept saying, coal, caboose! Coal, caboose! And, um, we were... it was time to go and I was driving home... and... I lost control of the car. And drove off the bridge. And the car went into the lake. And I couldn't get him out of his car seat. And he drowned. And I struggle with God so much, because I can't forgive myself. And I don't really want to right now. I can live with it, but I can't forgive myself. And sometimes I don't want to believe in a God that could forgive me. But I do want to be sober. I'm alive and I'm present and there's nothing controlling me. If I hurt someone, I hurt someone. I can apologize, and they can forgive me... or not. But I can change. And I just wanted to share that and say congratulations that God makes you look up, I'm so happy for you, but if he doesn't, come here. That's all. Thank you.

    • Rachel: Kym, you took Ethan for granted. Okay? You were high for his life. You were not present. Okay? You were high.

      Kym: [Whispering] Yes.

      Rachel: And you drove him off a bridge... and now he's dead.

      Paul: [Tearfully] Rachel, it was an accident.

      Kym: Yes, I was. Yes, I was stoned out of my mind. Who do I have to be now? I mean, I could be Mother Teresa and it wouldn't make a difference, what I did. Did I sacrifice every bit of... love I'm allowed for this life because I killed our little brother?
