In addition to wine tasting, the middle-aged loser, who can barely write a book, and his fourth-rate actor friends who will have sex wherever they go, drive the car around tasting wine a week before the latter is about to get married.
The tragic aura of this male protagonist is so similar to mine that all my emotions follow him. When my friend was caught and ran back to the motel, I laughed like him. There are more or less here. A little bit of resentment, this is also one of the few places where the male protagonist smiles.
When a friend told the male lead that his ex-wife remarried and was going to attend the wedding, my heart was bleeding, and there was still a trace of hope in the male lead's heart to get back together. Remarried, this is like a stick in the throat. Everyone knows how bad it is to call your ex-wife if you drink too much and say that he will not go to the wedding. The indifferent attitude of the ex-wife undoubtedly made this sting go to hell again.
Facing Maya, the male protagonist is passive and cowardly, and his performance is very poor. When he transferred the draft he wrote to Maya, I think he, like me, did not have any hope that Maya would read it.
Friends all the way, they were beaten all the way, but the wedding was still held. The male protagonist met his ex-wife and her current husband. It was a terrible feeling. The person you loved is standing in front of you, in another person's place. In the crook of my arms, I feel like a world away from you. The male protagonist and his ex-wife didn't even hug each other. They were so unfamiliar that they couldn't be strangers. The news that the ex-wife was pregnant was even more sobering. .
Although the end of the film gives a reasonable and slightly reassuring ending, I insist that the ending will not be good. Maya really likes his writing and can only say that he is very lucky, but in fact he is not recognized by the literary circle. More importantly, he is an extremely tragic person. Even if he leaves his ex-wife behind, can he be happy with Maya?
A glass of wine life, sigh life.
