After watching this film, which won the Oscar for adapted screenplay, there is always a feeling of deja vu. I seem to have seen a movie before. It's about two people who cheat on a plane for the weekend. As a result, the plane crashes, and their spouses know that their other half is having an affair. With connection, there's a night of revengeful passion at the end. That movie is called "The Heart of the Station", starring Harrison Ford. It is known as the American version of "In the Mood for Love", but Lao Mei can't make Chinese-style ambiguous, so the relationship between the hero and heroine in the film is too presumptuous. , and there is no long aftertaste. "Descendants" tells the story of a man who was busy with his career and neglected his family. When his wife died of an accident, he discovered the fact that she had cheated. He and his two daughters bid farewell to his wife and walked out of the pain. A story about love, tolerance and redemption, the whole story has nothing to do with the situation, but it is full of warmth, which is obviously much smarter than "The Heart of the Station". The film is based on the beautiful scenery of Hawaii, which adds a lot of color to the film. The part where the male protagonist bids farewell to his wife brought tears to my eyes. It is a rare masterpiece. It is said that the director of this film once directed "Life with a Cup of Wine", which is also one of my favorite movies. It can be seen that watching movies should also talk about similar interests. Movies made by favorite stars or favorite directors are generally not too outdated

  • Matt King: [voice-over] Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.
