open-minded and selfish

I like this movie very much, and I also like Jessica biel's gestures. Of course, I like other characters, especially the small characters are very good (especially when I saw Jane who is an IT madman seeing a dog) dead, banging on the floor and crying (I know she's a comedian again).

Granted, I've seen comments that people say the heroine is a contrived and selfish person who doesn't represent the freedom of American culture, or even that the movie bore him to death, these feelings are all very personal, I can't judge, but I think Talk about my own opinion.

Starting from the image of each character, we can probably see what kind of values ​​they should carry, and see if there are any outliers.

Larita, a passionate woman. When she was young, she had an older husband who suffered from cancer and was very weak. She followed his wishes by injecting poison into him, so she was accused of murder. She met John in France, when she had just won a car race, and sparked love at first sight with John in the crowd.

Unexpectedly, John's family is filled with an old-fashioned atmosphere. Just as Old Money has a prejudice against New Money, Kristen's mother and family sisters can't see her actions. Can't ride a horse, blond hair, allergic to flowers, very opinionated, everything is out of place.

She's a very egoistic woman who was buried right after she crushed the dogs, and she was found holding her head up to deal with their anger; and when she was dug up again, she said to her husband, "You should love me more A little" - John didn't know about it, it wasn't a surprise, and it's normal for him to be young and not fully tolerant of many things; and that she wanted to go with John when the Wittaker estate was in jeopardy It, wait.

From these we can know that Larita will not be a white lotus, it can even be said to have some paranoia and selfishness. Her openness is her nature, and her independence and selfishness is also her nature. John is very cute, but it is not completely complementary to her. They do not It was a wise choice to go, albeit a pity.

Let’s talk a little more about John, maybe I have a selfish interest in Ben Barnes? He is also very free and easy, I even thought he would be the kind of character who always gives up, but after an accident at home, he chose not to Leaving, although his method is very British aristocratic--want to reconnect with another Lord's childhood friend? That's kind of crap.

But it's not a good idea for Larita to go away with him at this time, even if he can go to work, he can't be without a shortage right away.

Larita should be rich, it may be a temptation at the moment, but it is true that John left with her maybe because he loves her, but it is not responsible for the family!

Uncle Lian is even worse, and his wife supports all this alone, but he leaves, even though he can't stay in this depressed home anymore.

Our conclusion is that neither Larita nor Uncle Face is a symbol of liberalism, they are even selfish, and I cannot agree with their approach. I like their characters a lot, but I don't think this plot captures the positive aspects of their characters.

The film itself is not boring, at least not from my ignorant and ignorant eyes, but the deviation from the theme is a bit difficult to pull back. The music is very good, the costume scenes are well arranged, the actors are very good at acting, and they have a good grasp of their roles. Thanks!

    It doesn't feel very good, although it seems to be a comedy, but I don't think there is anything funny about it. In particular, the actor who doesn't like the role of the heroine is supposed to be a very likable character, but he looks too mean and feels as disliked as her opponents.
