"Lars and the real girl", Chinese translation of "Love of Inflatable Dolls", is a 2007 American film. A far-reaching film, not so much a love that crosses species, lars fell in love with an inflatable doll made by himself, but actually tells the story of a 27-year-old boy who is a little autistic and grows into a man. His mother died of dystocia. Dad is too sad. Brother and sister-in-law and the kind-hearted residents of the town, together with his colleagues, witnessed his journey out of autism. "How does a boy become a man"? "sex"? "More than that, insist on doing what he thinks is right, even if it hurts, don't deceive his woman, and take up the family." In the film, the psychiatrist still remembers the words of a middle-aged woman with a dead husband and no children. "Sometimes she is so lonely that she forgets the date and how to pronounce her name." Only "love each other".

    A small town full of warmth can melt a heart that has been frozen for many years. The director and screenwriter use an absurd story to tell and interpret the meaning and value of love in a different way; Gosling’s seemingly dull but aura of performance, and a solution Sad and hopeful ending.

    I was deceived by the evaluation, which led me to look forward to the movie towards the end, but when I saw the ending, I knew what boredom and failure are.

  • Dagmar: So, tell me about Karin. I don't know her very well.

    Lars Lindstrom: Oh, she's wonderful. Gus and I are very lucky with women - she's wonderful. But she...

    Dagmar: That's okay, let's find you something to read

    Lars Lindstrom: No, it's just... between us?

    Dagmar: Of course.

    Lars Lindstrom: I'm worried about her. I think she has a little problem.

    Dagmar: Oh, well, maybe you shouldn't tell me.

    Lars Lindstrom: No, that's okay. It's just, and I think it's because she's insecure, it's just, she's just always trying to hug everybody. You know, some people don't like that. Some people don't like to be hugged. But she doesn't realize that. She takes it personally, and, it hurts her feelings. I don't know what to do about that. Do you?

    Dagmar: It's such a comfort sometimes, just to have somebody's arms around you. Don't you think?

    Lars Lindstrom: It does not feel good. It, it hurts.

    Dagmar: Oh, like a cut, or bruise?

    Lars Lindstrom: Like a burn. Like when you go outside and your feet freeze and you come back in and then they thaw out? It's like that. It's almost exactly like that.

    Dagmar: Same with everyone?

    Lars Lindstrom: Uh, not really with Bianca. But everyone else
