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 Movies made by favorite stars or favorite directors are generally not too outdated

    Like George Clooney, like the beautiful scenery of Hawaii

    The main reason I like Alexander Payne is that he can make a story that should be very hard work in an absurd context with humor and warmth, as shown in this film-a middle-aged man in life At the intersection of , countless choices need to be made, looking for the most suitable way out in the chaos; as for Clooney, this is his best performance I have ever seen, no one.

The Descendants quotes

  • Scottie King: Shut up, you motherless whore.

    Sid: Whoa! Whoa! Easy there, half pipe.

    Matt King: Where'd you learn to talk like that?

  • Alexandra King: When I was over at Christmas, I caught her with the guy. It made me sick to see her near you. I went back to school thinking that that was it... that I was just done with her. I was gonna call and tell you everything, and... and then the accident happened, and... I was waiting until she woke up, I guess. You didn't even suspect. Right? Right? You disgusted me too. You're always so busy.
