      "Sowing Love" Xiaogan

      I remember watching "Valentine's Day" this year, a romantic and warm love movie, in which a pair of friends who have been friends for many years finally got married at the end of the film. Chance encounters and reconciliation, quickly transformed into a love of light and flint!

      This movie is also about a love story that was born between friends, but the two are not in the usual romance, and have a heart-to-heart telepathy at the same time; it is the long-term obsession of one party,...

      One Switch 4 The New Life.

      I think the story is about exchange.
      The exchange of sperm is packed in a box at a time.
      The result is another new life.
      I don't know why Aniston would take such a film.
      Is it just an area where she is good at?
      If there is such a chance.
      I also want to exchange.
      No matter how useful it is.
      I also want to exchange once.
      Maybe my life is a mess right now.
      What's left after a busy day?
      Although sometimes it feels very lonely.
      But it went...

      Sow love, reap happiness

      Reprinted:
                                 1. "Sowing Love": "Raw Rice" is boiled into "Cooked Rice
           " The English name of the film "The Switch", which originally means "replacement" and "replacement", quite cleverly extracts the original motivation of the film Of course, the Chinese translation of "sowing love" is more vivid, and even has a hint of humor. Jennifer Aniston plays Casey, an out-and-out old leftover girl, despite her wealth and charm. Excellent, it is assumed that she...

      Appreciate "Sowing Love"

      "Look at how we're always in a hurry and always late I guess that's why we're called "people tired"

      In this world, what we want most is to connect with someone who will fall in love at first sight The moment you move your heart, you know the magic of fate People like that are lucky enough to be on the express train like in the pop song

      but love isn't like that and it's not that romantic and other people are not so romantic feelings are complicated and messy at the wrong time...

    Evaluation action

    "The Switch", a film that tells the story of older leftover women, is quite appropriate to be performed by Jennifer Aniston, but after the film was released, the media and audience's evaluations were average (Timeline Review) . The film brought surprises, and some of the plots in the film were eye-catching ("Entertainment Weekly" review)  .
    The audience's expectations of the film are too high. In fact, the film is just a very routine...

    Movie quotes

    • Wally Mars: So that we're clear, she did not put me in the friend zone. We put each other in the friend zone. It was a mutual placement. You know that.

      Leonard: Let's be honest with ourselves, you had your window with Kassie and you went all Wally on her and you doomed it.

      Wally Mars: What is that even supposed to mean?

      Leonard: You shared too much too soon. Quickest way to kill a romance. You gotta hide the crazy, at least through the appetizers.

      Wally Mars: I see. So just so that I'm clear, which one of your three failed marriages taught you that lesson?

      Leonard: All three, and they're special in various ways.

    • [last lines]

      Wally Mars: Every once in a while, out of all the randomness, something unexpected happens that pushes us all forward. And the truth is, what I'm struggling to think, and what I'm struggling to feel, is that maybe the human race isn't a race at all.

    • Kassie Larson: I'm ready to do it now. Life is in session.
