"How do you know if you are in love with her?" "If you want to talk to her for thirty minutes every day, you are in love with her." "What if it is sixty minutes?" "That is to love her to death." Now.” This is a dialogue that took place when the plot advanced to 11 minutes and 37 seconds. The words are rough, but the reason is very clear. It’s just that sixty minutes is nothing for someone in love. I want to stick together in minutes like a lump of candy~ However, ironically, there is a sentence after this dialogue: "And then you guys Stop talking, this is marriage." Although it is a joke, it has to be thought-provoking~ I always think that this movie is based on marriage. After watching it, what I think about most is also about marriage. blabla... Seven friends who have known each other for many years were invited to dine at Rocco (host) and Ava (hostess) couples, drinking and chatting. Rocco and Ava have been married for many years, and they have a daughter, Sophia, who is in the midst of youthful rebellion, and their attitudes towards her daughter are completely different; Lehrer and Carlota's marriage has entered a seven-year itch phase of sharing the same bed for a month, and they have a pair of children. , The same contradictions continue; Cosimo and Bianca’s newly married Yaner is passionate, and they have made a decision to make a villain. Very affectionate person, seeing the ending, he is the most intolerable to me); finally there is a Pep who is in love, a fat man who only recently discovered his sexual orientation, because he didn’t have the courage to tell his friends that he was new The object of the discussion is male and chooses to attend the appointment alone. The story happened on the dinner table at the party. As it was talked about mobile phones becoming the black box of people’s lives, even couples who have been in the same bed for many years would not show each other their mobile phones, so the hostess Ava proposed to play a game. Put it on the table, text messages, social messages, phone calls, and share whatever comes. There is no room for retreat in this game. Whoever does not play shows that whoever has a guilty conscience has a secret, just as Rocco's refusal was also questioned by the proposer Ava (the dialogue between Rocco and Eva is the finishing touch in the finale). Then on the night of this total lunar eclipse, just a short meal time revealed everyone’s secrets. A deep-fried meal was humorous and thought-provoking~ Homosexuality, extramarital affairs, and keeping in touch with the ex, one after another. The intensification of contradictions is exactly the climax of this movie, and I feel it after watching it. (I just want to say here that friends and wives should not be bullied, and anyone who crosses this limit should be slashed.) Of course, there are so many movies and TV dramas on this subject, and extramarital affairs and infidelity are also eternal topics. However, judging from this unexpected ending, the idea conveyed by the film is definitely not a satire and resistance to marriage. On the contrary, it praises marriage and love for life (which Carlotta saw when he went to the balcony to smoke. The scene of the old couple on the opposite side lovingly admiring the total moon eclipse is very interesting). Look at the jealousy and anger they showed when they discovered each other’s secrets. They were once a piece of candy stuck together 24 hours a day, and they all stepped into the marriage hall to read their sweet and sacred vows, and they experienced marriage together. The ups and downs in the middle ~ Although the relationship is fragile and vulnerable, she/they are also maintaining it carefully, never wanting to break it. I remember an episode in Friends. Joey exposed his father’s cheating. He thought his mother would be happy, but never thought his mother would say to him, “Why do you want to break it? I’ve known it a long time ago. After a woman, my relationship with him is much better than before. I will love me and buy me clothes...Even if it comes from the guilt he feels about me, at least our relationship has improved a lot..." Isn't the Rocco here? At the table, Rocco refused Ava’s offer to play the game and said, "I am worried that what you have hidden will be discovered by all of us. I don’t want to know if you have cheated." At the end of the story, Ava asked Rocco why he insisted not to play. During this game, Rocco said, "Because our relationship is fragile, everyone is, and some people are more vulnerable." Rocco has long known about his wife Ava's derailment. He did not expose or make trouble, as usual. Life, calm as if nothing happened. He is really a wise and perfect man, and Ava is not worthy of him. But no way, Rocco loves Ava~ Distressed Rocco 0. 73 seconds~ After seeing Mr. Qian Zhongshu’s besieged city, many people actually fear marriage because of the phrase "marriage is a besieged city, people outside the city want to go out, people in the city want to come out", I don’t think so necessary. You can choose your pinky to put on a ring and be an unmarried person, but you cannot deny the sacredness of marriage, nor can you erase the happiness that marriage brings to the world's tens of thousands of people~ At this embarrassing age, everyone around you is one after another. Continue to enter or will enter the palace of marriage, here, I hope everyone in their married life, there is no derailment or betrayal, just stay together for life~ PS: I am reading it the third time when I write it, I believe There are many people like me who will never go through the plot of some movies and just Ctrl D and happily go to the string. After reading the ending and knowing the relationship between each other, go back and read it again. You will find that all the details seem to be explaining something, and all the dialogues and expressions have traces to follow. For example, when Rocco used his daughter’s phone to prank Cosimo, Ava’s panicked expression ~ For example, Pep’s objection to the idea of ​​"no children, life is bleak" and the fire in the game, compare him to gay The role of, everything suddenly became clear ~ wait and so on. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Perfect dividing line~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ The movie involves a series of controversial topics, which is very interesting to talk about. For example, Ava complained and argued with her husband Rocco when she discovered that there was condom in her daughter’s bag. , But I don't know that condom was secretly given to his daughter by Rocco. There is also a particularly impressive scene in the movie~ Rocco’s daughter Sophia was invited by her little boyfriend to stay at home for the night (I just can’t get in the picture), and hesitated to call Rocco. The great enlightened father said such a touching passage: " Don't go to his house because he will be unhappy, this shouldn't be the only reason. And you don’t expect me to support you more, but what I want to say is that this is an important moment in your life. It is something you will remember throughout your life. It is not only a conversation for you to chat with your friends tomorrow, if you think about it later. , Whenever you think about it, if this matter will make your mouth smile, just do it. But if you don’t think or are not sure, then forget about it, because you still have a lot of time. "It’s a role model for the father’s generation. May all the daughters in the world meet such an enlightened father~LOL~ I seem to hear all the young men in the world cheering~ Also, there is a message on the table about "no children between husband and wife, The discussion about whether life is overshadowed" (24 minutes and 46 seconds) and "Is childbirth selfish or love" (25 minutes and 32 seconds) are also very interesting ~ the point of view raised by the psychologist Ava "Sometimes you are just afraid of Aging, many people hope that children can give them a second life. "Children give their parents a chance to regain a new life, as if they can live again through them. This idea is completely feasible in reality. This topic It can be said that there are three days and three nights... There is also a difference between male thinking and female thinking. For example: When the other half of a friend is found cheating, women will choose to tell their friends, while men choose to close their eyes. One eye, as Peppa said, if you say and then they divorced, it’s your fault, because you shouldn’t get involved. It reminds me that a similar argument has appeared in the Qihua Theory. It’s very interesting~ They also compare men to desktop computers, which are cheap and easy to be infected with viruses and cannot perform multitasking. They compare women to Apple computers, which are intuitive, fast, elegant, expensive, and are only compatible with similar products, but they are still very Attractive. Another interesting thought is that when Ava said that she was going to have breast augmentation, Bianca and Carlota were surprised and said, "Psychologists can't augment breasts. Psychologists should learn to accept themselves," excuse me? What kind of logic is this~ And so on~ There are also differences between male thinking and female thinking. For example: When a friend’s other half is found cheating, women will choose to tell their friends, while men choose to close one eye, as Pep said, if you Said it, and then they divorced, that is your fault, because you shouldn't get involved.

    One should learn how to break up. There is no need to be so miserable.

    The script is quite sharp, and the ending is light and profound. The mobile phone is just a materialized carrier. The connection between modern people is not profound because of its convenience and speed, and the loss of which is not regrettable will lead to fragility. The film also reveals the rigidity of marriage, the heaviness of guilt, the hardships of homosexuality, etc., which is not only serious but also makes people laugh, it is a masterpiece.

Perfect Strangers quotes

  • Rocco: Exes are dangerous.

    Lele: They're like the Japanese, they never give up.

  • Bianca: I didn't even want to get married. I never believed in marriage. Marriage makes me sad and anxious. I didn't want a child, either. What do I know about bringing kids up? I just wanted to be free. Then that asshole came along and turned my life upside-down. He made me believe we could be happy and I trusted him, but...
