I don't quite understand the purpose of the dialogue between the heroine and the writer at the bookseller activity at the beginning of the movie. At most, it echoes the scene when the heroine finds true love again at the end, but the indifference between the heroine and the writer seems to be different. This judgment cannot be supported.
Stumbled upon a few words about this movie: very few movies about divorce, and not optimistic chicken soup instillation. So I found it, but after reading it, I still felt that the chicken soup tasted too strong. ——The heroine will eventually find true love, the lesbians who have been cheated on will get support from the joy of parent-children, and the young people who love each other will finally be fulfilled. Although the road to true love is not easy - the heroine's shattered affair, the family, racial barriers placed in front of young men and women... But in the end, everything is not a problem, typical American movies, and always optimistic. Regret is a waste of time, get out of the haze and everything will be business as usual, if not better.
It's Catherine that interests me, not the "crazy blonde" - children who take it easy when tourists question the identity of the characters performing in the fountains. The muse and true believer of Fei Fei, the old girl with the exaggerated hat and the ice cream lover. She traversed the streets of Tuscany, haunted family dinners in the neighborhood, flirted with young students at the art academy, and generously accepted the new heroine. He seems to be able to transcend the market interface of Tuscany and live an extraordinarily free and uninhibited life. But even so, he still has pain, the grief after his lover left, and the triviality, loss, loneliness, and weakness that no adult can imagine. But she always seems to be able to withdraw quickly. What she said through the mouth of the master is actually her own life creed, and because of the accidental fate with the master, she is extraordinarily determined. She is really lucky.
As for the heroine, she is neither beautiful nor young, which is incompatible with the frequent encounters and easy luck in the film. I think in addition to her being very good at investing in real estate, it should be her casual attitude towards life, her ability to stop losses when tugging with pain, and her persistent goodness.
