I thought she's 29... There are multiple versions of this movie?

When she said honey, I thought she has a husband.

When we see each other, the whole world becomes quiet; everything turns into void except you and me.

Whoever he is, he has got a hell of an excuse.

How did you come by your fortune anyway?

Even the dog has better food than I do...

I really think that given eternity life one would try further places on each moving...

abandoned right before the proposal

such breakdown is surely out of blue

What are the odds falling in love with guys from the same family...

Wow, I bet he's super surprised/amazed when he met her. "You never changed a bit."

- That's enough
- What?! What's wrong?

Most of cases, guys don't even realize they made their girlfriends/wives unhappy, let alone why

She should have addressed those marks more carefully, if she really intends to hide

Her handwriting is so beautiful even a cursory one

"She's not capable of change." That's true, but sounds so ludicrous without the context.

She continued turning her wheels after seeing flashes from behind; that's incorrect, right?

would have been another kind of closure if she just die there

using voice-over to explain this fictional phenomenon in a scientific tone seems very excessive to me

"Yes, perfect."

The Age of Adaline quotes

  • Narrator: Ten months after her husband's death, Adaline was driving north to her parents beach cottage where 5 year old Fleming was waiting up for her, when something highly unusual occurred, something almost magical - snow fell in Sonoma County, California. The immersion in the frigid water caused Adaline's body to go into an anoxic reflex, instantly stopping her breathing and slowing her heartbeat. Within 2 minutes, Adaline Bowman's core temperature had dropped to 87 degrees,

    Narrator: At 8:55 a bolt of lightning struck the vehicle discharging half a billion volts of electricity and producing 60,000 amperes of current. Its effect was threefold. First, the charge defibrillated Adaline Bowman's heart. Second, she was jolted out of her anoxic state causing her to draw her first breath in 2 minutes. Third, based on Von Lehman's principle of electron compression in deoxyribonucleic acid - which will be discovered in the year two thousand thirty-five - Adaline Bowman will henceforth be immune to the ravages of time. She will never age another day.

  • Flemming: You don't have to be alone forever. Don't you miss having someone to love? It's been such a long time.

    Adaline Bowman: It's not the same when there's no future.

    Flemming: What are you talkin' about, you got nothin' but future!

    Adaline Bowman: I mean a future together, growing old together. Without that, love is, uh... it's just heartbreak.

    Flemming: It's the same for everybody. How many times has my heart been broken?

    Adaline Bowman: Too many.

    Flemming: If I had your looks and your energy, I'd fall in love tomorrow, I really would.
