Message in a Bottle

If some lives form a perfect circle.
Others take shape in what we cannot predict or always understand.
Loss has been my part of journey.
But it has also shown me what is precious.
So has a love for which I can only be grateful.

Soon after the bedroom lights were turned off, the film played the conversation between Garret and his father after Theresa left. I wet my eyes in front of the glowing screen in the dark, so I didn't have to hide my tears.
There are fewer and fewer love movies, and some of the ones once regarded as favorites have long been forgotten. But this [Letter in a Bottle], which I used to have no feeling after watching it, can now make me cry.
The story unfolds from the perspective of a woman. If she lacks such a bit of persistent enthusiasm or almost naive fantasy, then she and this perfect man far away from the world will not have the opportunity to meet. The three words "fatality" haunted unclearly when I watched this movie. A drifting bottle imagined to be too coincidental, or that cruel but seemingly doomed tragedy is over.
If the story is shallow or clichéd, it will still be my favorite movie. For example, when a man finds out the truth about the encounter between the two and leaves, it is their last side; or the two eventually become married and completely deny the occurrence of the tragedy. In my eyes, the screenwriter is beyond imagination, in the setting of the role of Garret's father, in the letter of the dead woman who has not been forgotten. From the perspective of the movie, the man facing the second love has overcome the closed heart, but is no match for the ruthless sky. The end of the tragedy conforms to all the twists and turns, and it seems to be a cruel irony of the two's too ideal feelings.
When faced with the scenes of wind and rain, it is difficult to suppress irrational self-question: Why is the wind and rain coming? Why did he see three people desperately calling for help in the distance? Why did that man see him, an irrelevant person, jump into the sea to save his wife? Why was it after he decided to go find her? Why should he be buried in the sea?
There is a trace of regret in Robin Wright Penn's eyes and more than emotional reason, Kevin Costner's almost perfect interpretation of the perfect man Garret, the old play bone Paul Newman can only make people convincingly firm and humorous. Probably there is no movie recently, and the performance in it can convince me so deeply.

    Iron man tenderness. Costner is very gentle side. At the end of the cup, I was sighed. I clearly remember the time to watch this movie, the tenth day of the first month of the Spring Festival in 2009

    I like Newman better than Kevin Costner's character. The plot is old-fashioned and contrived, right as a display of the charm of a few actors.
