Suddenly, I revisited "Marriage Battle". I only thought it was fun to watch it before. The two little friends were busy planning their own weddings together, and they played tricks on each other. But looking at it again today, I found that in addition to expressing the deep friendship between the two protagonists, the film also highlights the awakening of women's self-awareness. We long for a wedding, but not long for a future that will endure or come to an end, finding the right partner to spend a lifetime with is fine, but rejecting the unsuitable, being single is not bad, just knowing what you really want , then the wedding will give people happiness. The film, directed by Gary Winnick, was released in 2009. Liv (Kate Hudson) and Emma (Anne Hathaway), the protagonists of the film, have been inseparable since childhood, and have been together since that June twenty years ago at the Plaza Hotel. After a perfect wedding, they looked forward to being the June bride at the Plaza Hotel in the future. Twenty years later, Liv is a lawyer, Emma is teaching in middle school, and both are accompanied by their beloved boyfriends, so they are always looking forward to the moment when they are proposed, so that they can achieve a square Hotel June the bride's wishes were made. One day, when Emma came to Liv's house to try on clothes, she and Liv found a gift box hidden by Liv's boyfriend Daniel (Steve Howey). Liv was eager to open it to verify whether it was a ring or not. Emma stopped her in time. After all, you always have to show the look you saw for the first time at the right time. Knowing it too early will always ruin the atmosphere. That night, when Emma was planning to enjoy a leisure time with her boyfriend Fletch (Chris Pratt) at home, the ring hidden in a cookie brought her a huge surprise. She was proposed, and she shared the news with Liv immediately. At the same time, the two of them also learned the news that both of them were going to get married for a long time. Seeing that Emma had been proposed, Liv couldn't hold her breath, she was really looking forward to that moment coming soon. So after the morning run, she went directly to Daniel's office to ask questions. Although Daniel was surprised, he quickly took out the ring and proposed to Liv, although his plan was at night. Later, the two found the famous wedding planner Marion (Candice Bergen) together, and directly finalized the June wedding date, Liv set the 6th, Emma set the 27th, and the two also Make an appointment to be each other's bridesmaids and witness each other's most important moments. After that, they began to arrange various wedding accessories. In the bridal shop, Liv took a fancy to a tight but beautiful wedding dress, and immediately decided to use this wedding dress. But a few days later, they were suddenly Knowing that due to Marian's assistant's mistake, their wedding dates were arranged on the same day, on the 6th, and another bride was arranged on the 27th, which meant that they could not be each other's bridesmaids. For a perfect wedding, they found another bride for the first time and wanted to discuss changing the date, but got a refusal to answer. The negotiation here is invalid, and the vacancy for another wedding time in the Plaza Hotel will be 3 years later, which means that if they want to complete the wedding, only one of them can change the date, but they also understand who this pair is. It's all impossible. But for the sake of their friendship, they still agreed with each other that neither of them would make any wedding arrangements until someone was sure to change the date. They were at a stalemate at first, but Liv let Emma know about the gift card through Fletcher, so for her wedding, Emma could only do it first. She first posted her wedding invitation by email. . Later, at the bachelor party, after Liv learned from other friends that Emma had sent them a wedding invitation, she immediately argued with Emma, ​​but Emma did not back down. Announced the breakup. After that, the two did not shy away, and immediately began to arrange everything about their wedding, and the bridesmaids, in order not to embarrass their mutual friends, they all looked for people around them. I don't know what started the two people's tricks on each other. It was Liv who set Emma's favorite band, and Emma sent chocolate to Liv to gain weight; or Liv replaced Emma's dance class, Ai Ma publishes an ugly picture of Liv in the newspaper; or Liv spreads rumors that Emma is pregnant, and Emma steals the show by dancing at the party. In the end, neither of them got the desired result, Liv found out that she couldn't wear the wedding dress, and also knew about Emma's chocolate and candy revenge, so Emma had orange skin. Emma finds out about Liv's tricks, so Liv has blue hair and even her job is screwed up. No one knows why things turned out like this. Liv got the caring care of Daniel while she was sad, but Emma's mood swings were annoyed by Fletcher. Later, Emma's skin faded, Liv's hair returned, one missed the caller because of running with headphones, and one missed the caller because of her busy work. It wasn't until the wedding day that Emma's father visited Liv, and Liv thought about her behavior these days under the care of the old man. In order to avoid a bigger mistake, she asked the assistant to quickly exchange the CD prepared by Emma for the wedding, but the assistant who had been watching her boss was being teased obviously didn't want to do so. it can be redeemed error. On the other hand, the arrival of the parents not only sent blessings to Emma, ​​but also brought her the treasures she treasured with Liv when she was a child, which reminded Emma of the friendship with Liv for so many years. Finally, when it was time to appear, Liv and Emma could only walk towards their respective auditoriums. Before entering, the two looked at each other and did not speak, but they both understood each other's smiles. Turning around, they threw themselves into their respective weddings, and then Emma still discovered the error of the CD. She was angry and rushed directly to Liv's auditorium to fight with Liv, but she quickly calmed down. It was obvious that the wedding had been screwed up, and Fletcher questioned Emma again, but Emma knew they might not be right, after all Fletcher only liked her the way she was at the beginning, but she had changed. The two broke up peacefully in Liv's auditorium, and Emma and Liv got back together again, so Emma was able to be Liv's bridesmaid to accompany her to complete the wedding. In a blink of an eye, a year later, Emma and Liv's brother Nate (Brian Greenberg) got married, and Emma and Liv also found out that they were pregnant on the same day, so the two friendship will continue in another way. I really like a line in the movie, "There is a bond in life that never breaks, and sometimes if you're lucky, you'll find someone on the other side of the bond, and that person will always support you, no matter when and where. Maybe that person is your significant other and you celebrate with a big wedding. But it's also possible that she is the one you can rely on for the rest of your life, the one who sometimes knows you better than yourself, the one from start to finish The people who are all by your side." May we all find and always have.
