When I see Hugh Dancy on a movie poster, I never hesitate to press "download selected file". Although I've always been terrified of men with big watery eyes, I still like them when I see them. This sentence is nonsense. Go on.
At the beginning, Rose Byrne came to a narration of the Little Prince and the Astronaut. This narration does not match my understanding of the film. I admit that I have difficulty understanding the lines and lyrics!
I love this film because it talks about what I want to know and think about. Honest and Emotional. Adam is autistic. He often doesn't understand what people are saying, but he's always honest. If there's a reason why Beth likes her, then I'm afraid (somewhat cruelly understand) that she just likes his honesty. Maybe something else: his talent, like an encyclopedia, understands the universe and planets, and he's really cute. Whatever, honest people are likeable and admired, but have you ever considered that the truth can be really hurtful sometimes if the person only speaks the truth, no matter the circumstances, and doesn't take emotion into account?
Such a weirdo. You may like him, but are you brave enough to be with him forever? I'm grateful that the writers finally let Beth leave Adam; it should be a slightly sad ending, and the tone of the film is very high-toned. But its success is that, although the ending is not a happy ending, and the tone of the film is not sunny, it is indeed warm, at least 37°C. because it's fictitious and real. One of my favorite scenes is when Beth asks Adam why she wants to go with him at the end. What a great performance by two British actors. I've never been a big fan of Rose Byrne. It has to do with the fact that she doesn't always like me in the roles she plays, like the woman Achilles died for in Troy (what the hell is her name, I don't care), and Wicker Park. The Evil Diane and Josh can't meet the bad woman in it and so on. But in the end, when Adam clumsily choked out the words, her expressions were so real and layered. When Adam said, because you are a part of me, at first, she thought Adam understood. She stood up and walked up to him, hoping he could say enough to convince her to stay. However, all Adam could say was that when she said, "Because I need you to help find a place to live in and I need you to teach me blablabla," her big longing eyes suddenly dimmed, and tears flowed from her right eye. Although she could guess, even though she knew that Adam said these things didn't mean he was a selfish person, but she was a normal person after all. If she couldn't feel love, then everything would be too difficult for her. I love this part. It's what I expected. (I'm often annoyed that the story doesn't go the way I want it to, but here it satisfies me.) Here, the truth, though still hurtful, is acceptable.
Finally, Adam, who was alone for the first time away from his familiar living environment, seemed to gradually integrate into this new environment, and Beth sent him her new book. I like Beth's "Look how far we have come." Although she didn't go with him, because of this, Adam must rely on himself, leave the familiar environment, and face life alone instead of relying on others, so he can learn to live better. It's the best part of the story, so much better than when they ended up together.
Let’s talk about Hugh’s performance. Some beanies think it’s definitely a Golden Globe award for forest gump, but I think this goes beyond forest. I even think this is the reason why Hugh should play Adam. I really can't find a little American to play this smart and stupid autistic patient. If I want to play a pure fool, I guess I can find one. When you look at Hugh's big eyes, you know he is Adam. If this film is really going to win any awards, (although I don't care at all), I wish it good luck~
