The summer is hot and we need some refreshing movies to cool off the heat. "Summer of Jeans" is one such movie.
A few paragraphs first:
Bailey: I'm not afraid of death, I'm more afraid of time, I'm afraid that time is fleeting, it's too late to know who I am, I can't find my place before I die, I'm afraid of everything I miss.
Xiao Wang has something to say: If you can have this kind of awareness, I think anyone can live a wonderful life.
Tibby: Maybe it's easier to be angry with someone you trust because you know they're going to love you no matter what.
Xiao Wang has something to say: Everyone must feel this. The more you love, the easier it is to hurt. But on the other hand, this love is very touching.
Bailey: Maybe everyone is a loser in some way. Happiness is not everything in life. These little things, forget the unpleasantness, maybe we will get through the difficulties like this and ask for nothing else.
Xiao Wang has something to say: It is difficult for people who are smooth sailing to realize what happiness is.
Next is the text: Tibby, Lena, Carmen, and Bridget are inseparable, like sisters, in Carmen's words - like quadruplets. This summer, the sixteen and seventeen-year-olds are finally going to spend the summer vacation separately.
A pair of jeans, they can wear them all, so they believe that these jeans have magic power (maybe they think that the jeans will automatically adjust the size, hehe). They hope the jeans can accompany them and record their footprints. This is how the jeans project across the ocean began.
Tibby found a job as a salesman and started working part-time to earn money. At the same time, she made a documentary about her boring life. A twelve-year-old girl, Bailey, broke into her life and became her assistant involuntarily. The two made a documentary together, but Tibby felt that Bailey's insertion might affect the friendship of the four of them, so she never admitted that Bailey was her friend. After discovering that Bailey had blood cancer, her attitude changed slightly. When Bailey's blood cancer was severe enough to be hospitalized, Tibby didn't go to see Bailey, and she didn't know if she should go.
Lena returned to her home in Greece, where she lived with her grandparents and a group of relatives. Here, she seems out of place, and often draws sketches by herself. By chance, she met a handsome guy, but was ordered by her grandmother to cut off contact with him. So the angels and little devils in her heart began to wander, constantly wandering between approaching him and staying away from him, and finally she made up her mind to stay with him, but was forcibly separated by her grandmother's family.
Carmen is finally going to spend a summer vacation with her dad, and she is so happy for two months. When he arrived, he found that his father was about to marry another woman, a woman who was already a mother of two children, and wanted her to be a bridesmaid. She was very resistant, so she kept showing some clues in her words and deeds, but her father didn't realize it, and she slipped back home angrily.
Bridget went to football summer camp, and she fell in love with a coach on the first day. For this reason, she tried her best to express herself and try to get close to him, but he always kept a distance. She finally achieved her goal, but found that her heart was empty. The big hole left by her mother's death was suppressed by passion before, but now it burst out.
Four girls, four predicaments, what should they do? Lina was the first to break through the predicament. She mustered up the courage to communicate with her grandfather, and used the commonalities of their emotional experiences to get her grandfather's approval. She could finally communicate with her handsome boy without hindrance.
The jeans and letter that Lena sent inspired Tibby, and finally she plucked up the courage to visit her little friend Bailey, and the two opened up and chatted for a long, long time. Carmen finally called her father and confided her heart directly; Bridget was comforted by Carmen and Tibby, and the coach she liked came to her city to find her, and finally let her relax. And, the last four of them got together at Carmen's father's wedding, and Carmen got his father's attention. Four people, just helping each other grow step by step...
What impressed me most about the movie was a line from Lena's letter: If you're willing to open your heart, it will bring you good luck too. Yes, open your heart to yourself and others. Allow yourself to clearly understand your inner voice, and you will find that making decisions and taking action is not difficult at all. Let others understand your voice, and you will find that others are actually very willing to accept your ideas, and the world will not be against you everywhere. Open your heart and face it, there is no hill you can't climb.
