Love is the medicine?

Judging from the title of the film, the movie wants to sublimate the theme to the theme that love is the medicine for everyone, but after looking at it, I feel that it is really deliberate. Especially the part where Jamie confesses to Maggie at the end, it's well written Qiong Yao (it's also possible that I drank too many drinks, and at the end I just hope the film will end quickly). The heroine, Maggie, got Parkinson's at a young age, and she is stubborn to enjoy every day. Charlize Theron and Keanu Reeves in sweet november are almost like such a love story. Fortunately, the film is adapted from the autobiography of a pharmaceutical representative (Hard Sell: The Evolution of a Viagra Salesman), which by the way exposes some of the shady things about the pharmaceutical sales industry. The most important thing is that Jamie sells Pfizer's blue Small pills, this way, it's more fun.

Maybe the producers also know that the story is not very good, so they use the dew point of Princess mm and the bed scene as a selling point. This film is rated M18 in Singapore. Anne's curly hair resembles Julia Roberts's classic hairstyle in color and shape, and it's gorgeous. And she and Jake have a good chemistry in the acting, so they naturally seem like a real couple.

What I do is related to the pharmaceutical industry. Although I have never sold medicine, I also heard from the picture about how domestic pharmaceutical representatives do business. Basically, it is three words - beauty plan, it sounds really fiercer than the entertainment industry. Singapore shouldn't be so exaggerated (who knows), but the sales reps I've seen running to hospitals are mostly women, and heavy makeup and super high heels are also a must. So when I watch this film, I think it's a little unrealistic. Since all the people who are going to deal with are male doctors, Pfizer should send beauty salesmen to do it. In addition, the doctor would never agree to let the medical representative pretend to be a doctor to follow the ward rounds. In addition, has Pfizer sponsored this film? Not only did it advertise Viagra, but it also suppressed Lilly's antidepressant Prozac, saying that its side effects of Zoloft were reduced by %.

Speaking of the happy ending of the movie, it is really unreal. Because Maggie didn't have cancer, Jamie didn't have to take on a few months, just stay by her side for a year and accompany her through the last part. Maggie got Parkinson's, and Jamie has to take care of a patient for decades to come. Can love really be transformed into such a great sense of responsibility?

    I was just looking at it casually, but I didn't expect to look at it. The jokes are all natural. In addition to love, there are also reflections on the extreme material values ​​of the world and fast-food feelings. There isn't anyone in this world Jake you can't get your hands on—both men and women. PS: Actually, I don’t really like to see these two couples. I always feel sorry for someone on Brokeback Mountain... It’s crazy.

    I watched "Love and Elixir" last night. The movie is full of joy, with a lot of sex scenes and natural dew points. Ann Hathaway is too beautiful! In fact, regardless of whether you love first and then sex, or love first, once the other person touches your heart and sees you that others have not seen, you should not give up true love. Although it is very old-fashioned, there are too many people in the world who are unable to insist on what we love for various reasons. We need the elixir to continue to believe in love.

  • Maggie Murdock: You are not a good person because you pity fucked a sick girl.

  • Jamie Randall: Let's just say in some alternate universe, there's a couple just like us, okay? Only she's healthy and he's perfect. And their world is about how much they're going to spend on vacation or who's in a bad mood that day, or whether they feel guilty about having a cleaning lady. I don't want to be those people. I want us. You. This.
