After reading the original book yesterday, in fact, I was already crying when I saw the penultimate chapter. Buckman clearly wrote the ending so happy, but it was this happiness that moved me to cry.
I love the peaceful atmosphere in this Nordic community. I love Ove's promise to help the neighbors again and again, even though he scolds and looks extremely unhappy every time. Ove fought for her.
I just watched the movie after reading the novel, and I thought it was very interesting. Shuli Ovi kicks the iron rod with the slogan a few times every time. Shuli Ovi argues with the clerk when he buys flowers. When Shuli Ovi is about to commit suicide with a gun, he turns on the radio because he is afraid of frightening the cat. I turned over the photo of my wife, and I didn't want my wife to see him hanged. There are many details in the book. The director selectively restored a lot and made some reasonable changes.
It's not a magic change, it's really gratifying.
As for the casting, I feel that every casting is very suitable for the original. The old-fashioned Ove and the young Ove, Sonia's art, sunshine, elegance, Parwana's strength, independence, and occasional irritability, the casting is really good, and the actors' performances also make me feel immersed. , as if the Ove in the novel really exists and everything is happening right in front of my eyes.
By the way, the soundtrack is also very commendable. Soothing and cheerful handling very well.
The movie is really healing, and the love between Ove and Sonia in the movie is very touching. On the first date, Ove said "You're 15 minutes late", and Ove and Sonia discussed cars, which were both angry and funny, but in the end you would still think that Ove and Sonia are really suitable, they love is beautiful.
