      The director's eyes are good and the script is good

      Hmm~~ After watching Seven Pounds, I don't have much motivation to write long, Will Smith really worked hard, he acted absolutely well, for example, when Emily asked him about his past scenes, Ben refused to answer, and Emily turned and left. . Immediately afterwards, Ben stood at the door at a loss, his expression changed so richly, an outsider woman saw the expression of such a man and moved her heart of pity.

      There are many wonderful clips of WS, such as the clip of being stung by...

      Live Life Abandonedly

      A very strange title, it takes people to think about it and makes it impossible to make sense of it.

      It was a chaotic time and space, and the people who appeared on the stage had almost no connection, which made me feel like a cloud in the first hour. Of course, if you watch the second half patiently, you will begin to understand why.

      An unintentional loss--seven lives--unquenchable guilt--a long-planned plan--choice, investigation--an unexpected love--seven generous...

      Xiaowei also acted in emotional dramas

      I have always liked to watch Will Smith's performances, not because he is handsome, but because he is very good at acting. Whether the script is good or bad is put aside first, that is, from i robot to hitch to hancock to seven pounds, Serena's acting skills have become more mature again and again in every drama that is either sought after or devalued.

      To be honest, the first half of the play was too long, and many of the details were put aside without being brought up, and the causes...

      you must be emily^^

      The process of watching was very tiring, I never understood what to say, what the hell was this handsome man doing, until the last 20 minutes of the film, the plot had ups and downs, and everything began to become clear. More than...
      At the end, emily walked through the crowd and found ezrl. After a few simple words, ezrl said: you

      Redeem others? sacrifice yourself?

      A man chooses suicide in order to save himself, to free himself. To be honest, I don't even like this kind of routine design. God gave us life, and everyone's life is equally important. Who has the right to end his own life? It seems to me a way of escaping, escaping from making mistakes. The deceased has passed away, the living should live for the deceased, the choice should not be suicide, the choice is to take care of the loved ones of the deceased.
      There are very few emotional dramas...

    Behind the scenes gags

    1. "Seven" is the number of people Tim has helped. These people are: his younger brothers, Holly, George, Connie, Little Nicholas, Ezra, and Emily, but if you count the old lady Inez who helped bathe in the nursing home, then he helped 8 personal. But she is not in this plan, so the film is still named after "seven".
    2. In the film, Will Smith lives in a motel in Los Angeles. In the film "Amnesia", the protagonist lives in the same...

    Creative background

    "Seven Pounds" is the second collaboration between Will Smith and director Gabriel Mucino. In 2006, their collaboration "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" won Smith the second Oscar nomination for best actor. In fact, after cooperating with "When Happiness Knocks", Smith planned to continue to work with Mugino. Both of them liked the script of "Seven Pounds" very much, but for some reasons, the film "Seven Pounds" did not start until...
