Grandpa Allen's mutual gaming

The combination of loli and uncle, I have to say that I still appear in dramas from time to time. Why was the male god Colin under the command of Shi Shi?
The tone of the whole film is elegant, retro, fresh and romantic. It feels in the same vein as "Midnight in Paris", but they are definitely two different stories.
The male god is a sought-after great magician (his Chinese appearance is really enough), brilliant and acerbic. From the following expressions, we can know that it is a shadow left in his heart when he was a child. Atheist, see through the world, the only fun is Lock yourself in a room and study magic.
Stone girl is a little psychic, and she and her mother are in the upper class to cheat food and drink (this should also be Grandpa Allen's irony about the rich and brainless in the upper class), so the point of contact between the two is: the male god is invited by a friend To expose the Stone Girl.
Then there is the beautiful and boundless scenery of southern France, clouds, sea, mansions, beauty, beauty, beauty, and the male god found that he couldn't see through the stone girl's tricks at all, and began to believe in Stone girl, that this world exists. Because of the unknown and magical, I began to love this world where there is unknown, and even the clothes changed from dark suits to more dreamy white~~~
Well, this is definitely an advertisement that Grandpa Allen planted himself, The previous film has always insisted on atheism. Is this film trying to tell us that the old man has begun to have faith? Nononono, everything is just for his refutation and self-refutation, just like Zhou Botong's mutual learning, so if you know that belief is just a self-comforting lie, do you still believe it? If you believe, you may be more relaxed and happy, and your heart will have sustenance; if you don't believe, you will enter the abyss of no desire and no desire, and you will no longer have simple happiness...

But after the male god recovered and found that he was only deceived, he fell into this situation In the mutual blog, happyending of course wants the male and female protagonists to be together happily, but I really feel that the scene of the marriage proposal seems to be Mr. Darcy's upper body, arrogant and confident, although it is a marriage proposal but it is like a charity: "I'll take you under my wing!" (oh, it turns out that "Pride and Prejudice" is the originator of the overbearing president falling in love with me!!)

In short, I can write the technical content of this plot and characters at home, but Grandpa Allen still has his reasons for walking around the world for so many years. ! ! !

Still wondering whether to choose to use lies to comfort yourself or to be lonely and independent? The old man's ending clearly tells everyone that the most important thing is to be happy...

Magic in the Moonlight quotes

  • Stanley: The comparison makes me laugh! Olivia is a person of accomplishment and charm. Sophie's a street finagler who makes her way living off one bit of hokum to the next.

    Aunt Vanessa: Well, I don't see how you can compare the two.

    Stanley: Well, don't put ideas into my head!

    Aunt Vanessa: Well, far be it from me!

    Stanley: Of course, she does come from dire circumstances. I mean, it's very easy to be judgmental about people who are born into circumstances less fortunate than one's own.

    Aunt Vanessa: Well, life is harsh. One must do what one must to survive.

    Stanley: Well put. And people do sometimes make the wrong choices, which they regret, even though no serious harm was done.

    Aunt Vanessa: Which of us has not made some blunders in life?

    Stanley: And there is a rather appealing quality about Sophie. Despite her disgusting behaviour.

    Aunt Vanessa: Yes, her smile is rather winning. Of course, it depends how much value you put on the purely physical.

    Stanley: Well, no, I... I, for one, esteem the higher virtues.

    Aunt Vanessa: Hmm... Beauty of the soul...

    Stanley: Although her eyes are rather pleasant to look into. And that she can be amusing, under the right circumstances.

    Aunt Vanessa: Oh, but Olivia is an educated, cultivated woman. One that befits a man of your artistic genius.

    Stanley: Yes, now, my genius must be factored in. On paper, there's really no reason to prefer Sophie to Olivia.

    Aunt Vanessa: Well, I would say the opposite.

    Stanley: ...And so your, your suggestion that I, I be honest with Olivia and tell her that as irrational as it seems, I've fallen in love with, with Sophie - that's a preposterous notion.

    Aunt Vanessa: It's lunacy.

    Stanley: ...Yet I can't help feeling that...

    Aunt Vanessa: ...That you love Sophie. Yes, I understand. You're puzzled and bewildered; because your foolish logic tells you that you should love Olivia.

    Stanley: Foolish logic?

    Aunt Vanessa: And yet, how little that logic means when placed next to Sophie's smile...

    Stanley: What are you saying?

    Aunt Vanessa: ...That the world may or may not be without purpose, but it's not totally without some kind of magic.

    Stanley: ...I have irrational positive feelings for Sophie Baker. It's like witnessing a trick I can't figure out.
