It tells the story of taking responsibility for life.

Will Keane (Richard Gere Richard Gere) is the fifth diamond king in New York. He is very masculine when he is nearly 50 years old. He is accustomed to taking different women to his restaurant for dinner, sleeping, and breaking up the next day.

He met 19-year-old girl Charlotte (Winona Ryder) and he didn't expect her to show off to him. He didn't have to worry that she would pester him because she only had one year of life left. Charlotte Shannot, who is terminally ill, lost her parents since she was a child and grew up with her grandmother.

The two people who fell in love suddenly faced the fleeting passing of their lives. The tremendous pressure of fear caused WILL's old illness to relapse. He used the intimacy with his ex-girlfriend to escape this inner appeal, but the hurt also followed. The love-hate relationship makes Shanault feel painful with his life. The beautiful late autumn in New York is in the background to face the cold winter.

Charlotte, chased by the shadow of death, makes Will in the cold winter suddenly discover that she has been negligent and responsible for her unmasked daughter for too long. In the middle of the night, he went to the home of his daughter who was pregnant with Liujia. She and him, letting him go, gave Shanot the courage to face life. Therefore, the meaning of love has been greatly enriched and extended here.

His daughter had always hoped that one day her father would come to her and tell her, I am sorry. Her job is to investigate and find the people she wants to find in her life. In New York, where Will appears, she will unexpectedly And to. That one is unique and beautiful. It’s easy to forget that WILL is her father.

Will said that he had never thought that when his daughter needed to be taken care of, he would go to her.

The end of the film is WILL taking care of her newborn child with her daughter on a small boat. The daughter on the small boat said that she had never thought about it, that she could see her father taking care of her children on a flat boat like this.

Yes, life needs to be taken care of. That is the responsibility of such men to women. Women are not the spice of men's drunken life, not a one-night romance. The price of Shannot's life is the rebirth of Will.

In life, we don't just need to take the responsibility of making money for success in business, because the value of happiness lies in the value of what you have to another person. If there is no such value. Even if blood relatives are like father and daughter, everything disappears, let alone the meaning of life. . . . . .

    The lens and tone are very Chen Chong's style. But it is too light, and the portrayal is not too deep. What is the plot, too romantic to be true.

    I have finally lost you……

Autumn in New York quotes

  • John: Buddy, I hate to break it to you, but in the real world... where I live... there're only two kinds of love stories. Boy loses girl and girl loses boy. That's all there is. Somebody always gets left behind. You try to avoid that, you'll end up an old man toastin' yourself with egg nog in the mirror on Christmas Eve. You'll end up dying in your own arms.

  • Charlotte: If you wanted to seduce me you could have just asked.
