I saw this movie when I was in college, and I watched it again after many years, because of John Cusack in the poster, how could he reject him, the brilliance in his eyes and the sense of brokenness when there was no brilliance. The first time I saw him was "Prison in the Air", he was wearing a white suit, and he was learning from the boss behind him. I only heard "Bang" in my head.
I don't remember what it was like to watch this movie, I can't even remember the plot, maybe I just wanted to be the heroine and fall in love with Mr. Cusack, anytime, even if it was a down-and-out driver and writer in 2012, anytime . This time, I figured out two things:
The first is that I’ve been single for more than 30 years and I’ve watched a lot of this kind of romantic comedies. Before Korean dramas became women’s A~~ films, Hollywood romance films probably sat on that top spot.
The second is that this is not a movie about love and intimacy at all, this is an attractive movie that can desert at any time, quite dangerous! ! I had to reflect on whether my status as a married woman made me stand on the side of defending a stable relationship, not all. After all, everyone has a variety of choices these days, not because of this person, not at the moment, but also because of another person or some time in the future. Let me explain slowly why it is dangerous behavior.
First of all, Sarah and Johnason met and felt a connection, they were not missing each other. On the one hand, they each had a boyfriend and girlfriend at the time, and it was great that they didn't hide it. On the other hand, after they drank coffee and got to know more about it, the male protagonist's initiative and negative made the female protagonist hesitant. She was attracted, but it was not attractive enough. In order to let her destroy the life at that time, it is necessary to verify again and again whether it is destiny. There is no so-called miss at all, it's just that the conditions are not ripe enough to seize the other party without hesitation, so this kind of "miss" is a give up after a choice, let alone time, I don't give it, God doesn't take the blame.
Secondly, after many years, they talked about marriage separately, but they remembered the fate in their hearts and were ready to fight. When will you miss your ex or your first love? Everyone's preferences are different. For me, if my partner is handsome, handsome, gentle, responsible, talkative, romantic and ritualistic, and there are no other women in his eyes, I may not miss other men. So it must be unsatisfactory with the current life, and it is difficult to calm down:
The heroine's fiance bought a diamond ring that the heroine couldn't wear. The honeymoon arrangement also followed her own performance plan. She didn't care about the impact on the heroine's work. I mentioned that I only traveled after my fiancé agreed. Contrast that with the eccentric and capable heroine at the beginning of the film. She is uncomfortable in the relationship that is about to enter the marriage.
The male protagonist gave up his dream of making a documentary and switched to making news scraps. The fiancée couldn't see that she didn't cut her hair, and asked him to tell her love. The male protagonist's fiancée is a decent and correct choice. . I don't know if the male protagonist is comfortable, but he lives step by step. He has no passion in his work, but he can perfunctory it, but his fiancée is not easy to perfunctory, and his absent-mindedness will be discovered.
(To complain about the casting here, why did the fiancé and fiancee get dumped by the protagonists in "Lord of Desire", and they will be dumped in this drama?! They are so miserable!)
Again, I haven't looked for it for so many years, why did I look for it before getting married? The clue for the male protagonist to find the female protagonist is in the gloves that the female protagonist threw him, and there is a shopping receipt, which is already some years later. It means that the male protagonist is not too lost after returning home from the title, and he does not take out this souvenir from time to time to reminisce. The way he misses is to go through the old bookstore or the old book and flip through the agreed book to see if there is a female protagonist. Information. The timing of the appearance of the gloves is when the male protagonist's fiancée packs her honeymoon luggage and turns the house upside down. What I think is very dangerous here is that no matter how strong the relationship is, it will fade with time, and the hero and heroine actually miss each other more and more. It is not just a romantic moment in life, it is simply a little thought left for yourself when you are satisfied with real life. Thinking about it, when the intimate relationship is unsatisfactory, he will continue to add bricks and mortar to the fate of the year, and slowly paint the other party as a perfect partner. This perfect partner of his own imagination and design is dangerous and scary.
So, rather than saying that they feel that fate is destined, it is better to say that they just don't want to marry the current object, and they don't want to live the current life. See? In fact, no matter what you do or don't do, it's your choice. In the play, the male protagonist mentioned clue and sign. In fact, when you encounter someone or something, even if it is an idea in your head, as long as you want to do it, you can find a clue as a sign for you to do something. Once you hesitate and don't want to do it, you can find a clue to prove whether it is a sign or not. Let you do the sign. In the end, they all follow their hearts.
Love fairy tales never tell what will happen after the prince and princess live together. Fortunately, people have many choices in modern society, but when you desert, please remember that your partner may desert too, fair enough, and really feel that life is not enough. When it suits you, exit cleanly and decently.
