"Destined" Crowd Psychology
Lupe 2022-04-19 09:02:15
A typical British love movie, it is the same simple and mediocre as "BJ's Diary of a Single" and "Love Actually", so the ending can be foreseen from the beginning. The whole movie was not very attractive, because it was recommended by a very tasteful friend, so I patiently insisted on watching it. Because of the lack of the heaviness of classic films such as "Pride and Prejudice", "Atonement", "Becoming Jane Austen", etc., pure and seemingly exquisite ideas, coupled with the absurd taste of European and American encounters, this film It can only be used as a talk for after-dinner entertainment. There are too many expectations for "destined", so it seems understandable that such a theme is put on the screen again and again, but I always feel that compared with "If Love Had Providence", such European and American sentiments are really not as subtle as Asian ones. . Let's just watch it, but the ending song "thank you" can still affect some emotions.
