      When I saw the end of the story, I always thought that the girl was the daughter of the old man's ex-wife

      I don't know if I understand it, the beginning and the end of the film are based on the story written by another ordinary person to tell the story of two layers of writers from different periods. But I thought the narrator of the movie was an old man drinking red wine, and I thought it was Rory, but that's not true, right? The movie review said nothing. I thought that Luo Rui was an old man with red wine. In the end, he didn't have a good relationship with his wife. In the end, after life, he...

      Art and life, choose one

      Those who have seen the movie may still remember the line that was repeated twice in the movie. "Everyone makes a choice, and the difficulty is to face the future together with the choice."

      Movies use the form of storytelling to narrate the plot of a novel. The name of the novel is the title of the movie - "The Words". The film begins with Clayton reading the novel, and continues.

      The novel "The Words" contains two stories. One is from Tears of the Window, and the other is...

      Bradley Cooper Got My Ex's Face.

      I like this movie.
      Also crying a mess.
      Probably the main reason is that Bradley Cooper has a face that looks like my ex-boyfriend.
      Of course this is all off-topic.
      Look at the entire movie.
      In fact, it means that the three authors are in the same line from a macro perspective.
      If you inherit Latada's writing, his style and his emotions, you will inherit Latada's life.
      Although the three authors have different life stories.
      But the intention of the movie...

      A real helpless and tender story

      Brilliant strokes make flowers... This is an unfinished story, interspersed with two stories, about gain and loss, about the price paid for what you get.
      Love and career, life. To write this thing, you still have to have a profound life experience, especially like the sentence in it, ... Since you decide to have something, you must bear the consequences.

      The old man's love is a poignant story. I have been thinking about how long the most beautiful appearance of love can last at...

      Things are just things.

      I would like to highly recommend this movie.
      "You can't just make things right. Things are just things." In

      a simple comment, I think this is a very good-looking movie that is worth recommending. I don’t watch many dramas like this. It takes two or three days for me to digest such a brain-intensive drama. Trigger the thinking and review of life and improve the ability of logical thinking. . Because there are stories in stories and stories, reality and fiction are interspersed,...

      The stories in the story overlap each other, there is no moral judgment of true or false, and the film process is beautiful, but anticlimactic. It's about the joy and the pain that gave birth to those words. You take the words, you take the...

    The film has a clever storytelling angle, and it has a very good story. While providing entertainment, there is no cliché of thriller or romance. (Comment on "International Screen")
    If the story of the movie is written as a novel, then the novel will undoubtedly be more attractive. ("Variety" magazine review)
