When I just finished reading it, a lot of things emerged, and I wanted to write, but finally gave up.
Then I let myself settle and settle again.
I don't dare to write comments about the West. I feel that there are many conceptual gaps, and writing too much will be biased.
In fact, the plot is very simple, the emotional entanglement of 4 people, the non-stop powerful rivalry, the wonderful lines, and the collision of emotions. Feel the change of time and the change of emotion in the dialogue.
Dan. Just 5 minutes after I appeared on the set, I told 12 that I liked this film. A good film should be fascinating. If any one goes beyond one's own input, calmly analyze the screenwriter's intentions, the sense of the lens, the color, the light, and the acting skills of the actors. Wait, wait, and so on, don't look at it. Dan wears Sven's gold-rimmed glasses and his eyes are clean, making you think this is the beginning of a fairy tale if you're not careful. When he told Alice that his girlfriend's name was Beth (I forgot, it seems that's the name), I was still thinking, maybe we should forgive his betrayal when we meet true love, or, it's not betrayal. And when he met Anna in the studio 2 years later, the kind of eyes that couldn't be taken away chased her figure tightly, which made people have an urge to smoke him. A man's fickleness, no matter how dedicated any part of his relationship is, is despised. For revenge or something else, he actually pretended to be Anna in an online sex chat room to chat and prank people. Dan is fierce, impulsive, and childish. At the entrance of the pavilion, he expressed his feelings to Anna fiery, but at the entrance of the bar in the opera house where everything seemed to have settled, he could not accept that Anna had to sleep with Larry for the last time for his own freedom. Another intense emotion, he rushed to Larry's clinic only to end up crying like a child. Dan got nothing in the end, neither Alice nor Anna, in that park, seeing Alice's name written on the wall, he was at a loss.
Alice. My favorite character in the movie. She has short red hair and steps on confident and charming footsteps, walking towards you with a smile on her face, I knew she could attract a lot of people. And she chose Dan. She fell to the ground, turned her head back slowly and said "Hey" slightly slyly. The stranger started and captured Dan's heart. In fact, this should be a slightly selfish woman. She first arrived in London and is helpless. Dan is a good-looking man with a fixed professional income. Every look of Alice amazes me. The second time he appeared, in the photography studio, he had clean short hair that had returned to normal hair color, and there was almost no makeup on his face. Quietly said that he heard their conversation, turned around, carried the sun behind his back, and slowly shed tears, the kind of sadness makes people feel distressed. I always guessed that she should have no hatred for Anna, after all, it was the man's boredom and initiative. The third time, at Anna's photography exhibition, she had a black tube top dress, long fringed earrings, short ears, perfect makeup, sweet and lovely, standing in front of a large photo of herself crying, holding a cigarette in her right hand. After showing off his little sexiness to Larry, he turned his head with endless exhaustion. Alice is a stripper, the bottom of the crowd, and is discriminated against. But she has her own pride and self-esteem. That's why she cried and hugged Dan and said no one would love you more than me, then quietly left the house. That's why she's dealing with Larry in the private room with a professional smile. That's why she ended up at the motel calmly saying I don't love you anymore from now on. It's not that she doesn't love anymore, it's that she decides not to love anymore.
Anna. In fact, I personally feel that having Julia Roberts in the role always feels like something is missing. This woman is shrewd and capable, she knows what she wants but always gets lost, otherwise she wouldn't entangle Dan with him until she fell in love with him, or she wouldn't inexplicably marry Larry and then divorce and come back Larry's side. (I guess the people who don't understand it will be crazy to watch this film XD) Anna's line that impressed me: who was your last boyfriend? my husband. what happened to him? someone younger. Short and sad. Anna's ending is another sad one. Finally decided to be with Dan, the man was returned to Alice's side by Larry's two words; seeing Larry's essence clearly, he still wanted to be with him. Anna has always been condemned by her conscience and morals, torn between the left and the right.
Larry. Very funny character. After discovering the adultery between Anna and Dan, all I asked was about the details of the sex, where to do it, what posture to use, whether there was an orgasm, who was stronger between him and Dan - a man who lacked self-confidence, and even felt that Anna left him The reason is sex, even as a quid pro quo for signing a divorce agreement. This can also be seen in the private room of the bar and Alice's section. A lot of people are talking about whether Larry and Alice did or not, and it doesn't matter anymore. Whether it's Larry's trick or Alice's remorse, the outcome is always a foregone conclusion. But it's a great move, and it's where Larry is one stroke ahead of Dan.
In fact, looking at them separately, Dan and Alice, Larry and Anna, the two stories are enough fairy tales enough for Hollywood, but the four of them together are enough for scenes. How can life come from so many simple whiteheads to last forever?
Who is happier in the end? I guess if Larry and Anna took care of themselves, they might have had a more peaceful life. Marriage is so desperate, the fiery love will eventually go out, and the rest, peaceful coexistence will always last longer than dead silence. Dan, I guess I will continue to hook up with the beauties I like, there is no way, who made him so unwelcome ~ My favorite Alice, oh, it should be Jane, continue to step on her charming steps, long curly hair, scattered on the shoulders , White double-strap camisole, clean and sexy, so beautiful that passersby frequently turn back. This is life.
PS This piece is so clean that there is not even a single bed scene, which really surprised me! But I don't think anything is missing.
