April: What are you gonna say?
William: I'm still working on it. I don't know.
April: Oh, you should work on it with me.
April: You should practice with me. I'm really good at that. I will be Emily.
April: I'm Emily, your college sweetheart. Is there something you wanted to ask me?
William: Emily...
April: Wait! You're got to get down on your knee.
William: No, I'm not getting down on my knee.
April: She'll like it. She'll like seeing you down on your knee.
William: I'm not getting down on my knee.
April: Such a mistake. Okay .
William: Emily
April: Yes, William
William: Don't make me laugh. Emily, will you, um, marry me?
April: No.
William: Oh, my God.
April: Well, what do you mean, "Will you, um, marry me?"
April: I haven't seen you in weeks!
April: You don't look happy or excited about the prospect of our marriage!
April: You're asking me to give up my freedom, my joie de vivre for an institution that fails as often as it succeeds?
April: And why should I marry you, anyway? I mean, why do you wanna marry me?
April: Besides some bourgeois desire to fulfill an ideal that society embeds in us from an early age to promote a consumer capitalist agenda?
William: Oh! Oh, my God!
April: You should've got on your knee!
William : Just shut up!
William: Here.
William: I wanna marry you because your're the first person that I want to look at when I wake up in the morning and the only one I wanna kiss goodnight.
William: Because the first time that I saw these hands, I couldn' t imagine not being able to hold them.
William: But mainl, when you love someone as much as I love you, getting married is the only thing left to do.
William: So will you... Um... marry me?
April: Dfinitely. Maybe.

He shy away, leaned on the door to look back, but sniffed the green plum. A friend told me that what a man needs most in his heart is a confidante. She is the best listener when he is tired and at a loss. She is like an elf, a close friend, a lover, and even a mother, giving him the most generous. Hugs and the most reassuring pity. On Baidu, the definition of confidante - confidante is to use the maximum of love to understand you, love you, listen to you and not be attached to you. You see, what a delicate word but what a desolate sigh. What if that so-called confidante wanted more than good friends? "When a person grows up, he doesn't believe in eternal love fairy tales." If this sentence is true, then I, who have always refused to grow up, have to admit that I have indeed grown up. After I don't believe in the love myth of the princess and prince, I don't like watching love movies very much anymore. God knows how much I've been poisoned by those damn romances! Love is entangled with the following words in my fantasy kingdom: passion, mystery, hormones, red, gorgeous, drunk, lingering, lips, affectionate, hurt... Experienced a crush, was crushed, loved one, loved by someone, Later, I found out that love is not an absolute one-shot for life, the passion of electric light and flint or the earth-shattering tears of life and death. Sometimes love in life is as ordinary as a piece of dust, and others don't care at all, but the person involved treats this dust as the whole world. The core routine of love movies is: we actually met that person in our life long ago, but at that time, we didn't realize it. So we kept interacting with that person, and then we missed it, we intersected again, we missed it again, and after going around in circles, we realized that the other party is the only one in our life. To tamper with a famous saying is: "The crowd searched for him thousands of times, and looked back at night, but that person was in the place where they first met. If you have grown up and started to disbelieve in those so-called hormonal events of love at first sight, then "Love Three Choices One" may It's a good choice. After watching the movie, you might as well observe the confidantes in pink or blue around you, maybe they are your only one!
"Definitely, Maybe" tries a new "storytelling" approach, guessing who's her way. Cater to the mentality of some audiences. Because the vast majority of viewers don't have any hope for the plot setting when watching romantic comedies, and it's not surprising that they guessed the beginning and the ending. What the audience is after is a feeling, a feeling of love. "Definitely Possible" gave the audience a change just right, and only gave the beginning, allowing the audience to discover the ending as the plot develops. This is a good attempt. The film is two hours long, and it can make the audience stick to the last success.
As the father told his daughter, this story is a love suspense drama. If the daughter wants to know who her mother is, she must pay attention to the details of the story. However, the father may not have thought that while recalling and telling his love history, he also found the true love that has always been inspired by his daughter. The male protagonist Will has three unforgettable loves, and the heroines of the three loves have their own characteristics. I believe that when watching this film, different people will like girls with different personalities. Following the trail of the film, the audience also finds the mother in the story with her daughter Maya, but the story does not end when the answer is revealed... The father Will is played by lucky Ryan Reynolds - Scarlett Johansson's engaged boyfriend . To be honest, this is the first time I have watched Reynolds' play. Although his appearance is not my type, he is still handsome. The only drawback is that the father of "Little Sunshine" is a bit young. However, when acting as a good father who loves his daughter deeply, it is still quite emotionally fitting. Daughter Maya is played by "Little Miss Sunshine" Abigail Beslin. Little Belle is a child actress that I like very much. Like Freddie Highmore, she belongs to the type of cute and innocent but with great acting skills. She doesn't have much time to play, as long as she plays the role of daughter in her true colors, it's just a piece of cake for her. I'm not familiar with the three female characters except for Summer, played by Rachel Weisz. But from the very first sight I fell in love with April, with a sweet smile, a free and easy personality, and a love of travel - maybe this character is the most similar to me of the three. She has existed as Will's best friend for many years. As her daughter Maya said, she is like the one who will always be a friend in the story. When she realizes that she loves, Will already has someone she loves deeply. Rachel Weisz's Summer is a So Hot woman who was the object of all boys' sexual fantasies when she was in college, and her relationship with Will was also the most enthusiastic - we can see that Will, who is relatively introverted, has a relationship with her. Lots of kisses. However, in the end, he gave Will a heavy blow for his career and the professor he had always loved. And Emily, who appeared first, chose to betray and leave for their lives that may not be able to meet. Love is not a fairy tale, and true love is actually something that exists as long as you believe it. Sometimes true love is around, maybe it's that neglected person, that neglected feeling...
I like April very much. She has all the good qualities of confidantes. She is good at listening, not so sharp but quirky. She can give you humor, tenderness, and quiet company. It can fill your boring life with passion and waiting. And our male protagonist understands that she will never leave too far in this way, and whenever she looks back, she will always find her staring figure among the thousands of people. She is so understanding and so understanding of my heart, how can she project unnecessary troubles into my already messed up emotional life. emily, she is the first love of the male lead. Maybe there is always such a woman in every man's heart. She is the ideal, pursuit, and dream date. At that time, love was pure and innocent. We simply wanted to plan a better future together. Unfortunately, reality is always disturbed by many The entanglement, the final possible ending is mostly passing by, or it may be that the woman's youth is wasted in the daily life of firewood, rice, oil and salt, and eventually becomes a dispensable grain of white rice. summer, a perfect lover and work partner, she is like a red rose that exudes a charming fragrance that all men can't resist. Her strength, her independence, and her strength may eventually become the tie between her and the male protagonist on the road to marriage. The maintenance of marriage and family requires both parties to make every effort, and such a woman lives so unrestrainedly and self-consciously, she pursues freedom Her yearning, working hard in her career, she will only ask for something unwilling to give. Such a combination may be doomed to break up, and her departure is an expected result. The three women in the hero's life, he tells them one by one, and presents his best times to his daughter. As a clear and discerning little bystander, the daughter reveals that the hero has almost spent his life trying to crack it. The answer: who loves her more, who does he love more. That girl, bless you and keep you warm, always shows up when you need it most, and quits when you least need it. I like the plot of two people smoking each other on the streets of New York, in the dark The two burning cigarettes beside the painted street are like their two hearts. At this moment, they should be closest to each other, right? In fact, the final answer has already been revealed at this moment. Definitely... Maybe, she absolutely loves him, but he may never understand her.
The male writer and director of this film is Adam Brooks, who wrote [Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason] and [Wimbledon] (. I have always had a bad impression of male writers who write romantic comedies, so please forgive me for my "prejudice" .In my opinion there is not one or very few male writers who can write about female characters in their stories where men tend to be protagonists or at least equal to women. It may have been previous failures that brought Adam Brooks into the film There are many different story settings from the past, at least in the eyes of critics, this innovation is worthy of encouragement. Even if his transformation cannot be said to satisfy any audience, the romantic comedy has indeed lacked fresh and moving stories this year, and it really needs to be Different attempts. At least, in this film he joined the Clinton election and his subsequent scandals can be said to be a very successful strategy, the hero's career pursuits and ideals rise and fall with Clinton's political career, during which many The selection of news clips is very exciting, full of satire on current affairs, and the dialogue in the political commentary section has become the most laughable place in the film. At the same time, fools can see that the film was released in 2008 and "coincidentally" climbed with Hillary's election campaign The relationship makes the audience smile. Although, Adam himself denied any political intentions, saying that the script was written before Hillary announced the election, well, who knows?
Love goes round and round, the original favorite, you have been in Around. There are stories like this happening at any time among us. Love is indeed as complicated as the protagonist said. When you love A, B loves you, and when you fall in love with B, B has fallen in love with C, and At this time, A just turned around, and when you turned around again, A fell in love with someone else. In the end, no one loves you. Only you are the loneliest person. Love goes round and round, who is the favorite? Oh, love, It's so complicated! How can we know who is the most loved one? The inspiration of this film is that no matter when we meet, we still talk like friends, no matter how life goes by, there must be a reason to meet in the end. It's good, this love has a happy ending. Maybe it's because of the identity of the daughter, to Abigail Breslin's words: I didn't expect you to smoke and drink, but I still love you. So moving! The image of the father in the daughter's heart may one day Will change, for better or worse, "I still love you"!
