"The midnight kiss is not just a kiss, it is the momentary passion that erupted from the hope of love that has been suppressed for a whole year. And such a shuddering kiss is mixed with countless calls, text messages, online chats, pursuits , plan, indulge. When the time is right, it all comes together, when you feel the power of the coming year, mixed with loneliness and missed opportunities over the years. For several years, I used to work in a video store, and in the new year, I will Serving people who feel the same way as me. Heartbroken souls who hate the noise of the night, want to lick their wounds in peace alone, get drunk on the heartbreak of fictional love and other people's stories. That's me, a A lonely, forbearing person, waiting for the curtain call of the night, but sometimes time becomes very slow, and you can no longer stick to the rules..."
With this slightly petty monologue, the black and white shots rotate in rotation There are scenes of kissing each other, and then from the warm and affectionate midnight kisses to Wilson, the hero who lives in the flashy city of Los Angeles and is hungry for midnight things. This slightly petty paragraph completely confused everyone's thinking: A Los Angeles Forest? A love before sunset? Even a man and woman? Please continue to read:
"click", Canon's camera recorded the sweet moment of Wilson's friend Jacob and his girlfriend Min, skillfully opened Photoshop, transplanted Min's head to a *** girl, and then Masturbating violently to the photo, maybe we have all done it, but we have never encountered a situation more embarrassing than Wilson. It may have been the involuntary masturbation that made Wilson forget the reality that he and Jacob lived under the same roof. Being caught by his brother Jacob while masturbating may not be the worst, but being recognized by Jacob and his girlfriend while masturbating is probably the last thing this lonely and reclusive Wilson wants to see. The slightly shaky footage and rough images, combined with this incomparable opening, completely negates the previous thinking: maybe this is another American Pie or color is emptiness.
"Maybe I'm just a useless bastard, change the corpse wilderness", self-blame, guilt and shameless smashed into Wilson's brain, 29-year-old embarrassed age relying on masturbation to seek the pleasure of life, but fortunately there is still good friend Jacob Hemin's encouragement: find a lonely woman on facebook or my space before the new year. Wilson, who is out of control because of the emptiness of life, has no choice but to use a dead horse as a living horse doctor. The e-mails of "world-weary men looking for world-weary women" were quickly answered: meet at the coffee shop at 4pm. Maybe a solitary and reclusive person falls to the bottom of life and becomes extremely self-loathing at the same time, maybe it is the time when the charms that are unconscious in the eyes of others are released. Seemingly cool, Vivian, who is actually experiencing a low point in her love career, is fascinated by this world-weary man in front of her.
From the two people walking together on Hollywood Boulevard in the coffee shop to visiting the Los Angeles theater, the stroll and chatting along the way brought the audience into the atmosphere of "Love Before Sunset". They are also two strangers, and they are also rich in culture. In the city, it is also a leisurely walk and chat, and the long-term accumulation of emotions between people has been happily released at this time. It's also undeniable that this roaming flow is significantly less motivated than "Love Before Sunset": for the fuck. Maybe this is fate, even if it is a very deliberate search for a fuck object on the Internet, the result can be a spark of love, at least a kind of ambiguity that makes people look forward to it, not to mention that what Wilson is eager to solve is obviously not a physiological need but a mere It's emotional release. So from going on the road with 5 condoms before to the innocent gossip, doing the subway, going to an Italian restaurant for a romantic dinner, etc., the story is transitioning from a masturbation comedy to a simple love drama, and the realism of the picture and the wonderful soundtrack. It reminds people of the masterpiece "once" last year, which is even more real and thorough than "once".
The climax of the film comes with the approaching of the New Year's bell. Wilson takes Vivienne to the party where brother Jacob proposes to his girlfriend Min. Under the illumination of the lights, Min looks particularly charming and beautiful, probably because of alcohol. Because of the excitement and masturbating to her photo in the morning, Min kissed the slightly shy Wilson in the corner. The existence of this episode is not set for the turning point of the film's atmosphere, but only to bring the climax of the film to its peak. : Wilson and Vivian drove the car in the city of Los Angeles, while Jacob danced with Min at the banquet, the radio in the car was counting down the arrival of the New Year, and the people on the streets at midnight were carnival. Hot kiss, with the countdown of "10, 9...", the switching of three sets of parallel montages will ignite the flame of the climax. Wilson finds the long-lost midnight kiss, and Jacob gets the chance to become Min's life partner in the affectionate kiss.
Maybe this romantic true story should have a rattle to the beginning after this set of kisses, but the film's charm is far from easy to end. Wilson took Vivian back to his home to sleep. Perhaps the kiss at midnight had already solved Wilson's physical needs. In the dim light, Wilson and Vivian hugged to sleep. The sun shone down on the ground, and along with Wilson's neighbor's savage screams, the two of them used up the condoms given by Jacobs affectionately and enthusiastically.
Maybe this is Wilson's best ONS, maybe this is the beginning of Wilson's love again, maybe the love between Wilson and Vivienne is like "Love Before Dawn", in short, Vivienne Returning to her home state of Texas after enjoying sweet sex from Wilson. Wilson, on the other hand, continued his cohabitation life with Jacob and Min, and was fixed on the screen in the wonderful "wind of change".
I have never thought that love can be so sweet in reality, and I have always firmly believed that beautiful love only survives in our lust, but the realistic "Looking for Midnight Kiss" ignites the infinite imagination of love : A romantic one-night stand, your Sauvignon Blanc, platonic sex, or even masturbating to a photo of a girl you have a crush on, or even appreciating someone else's love story in a movie and feeling sorry for yourself... Just like me at this time.
I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change
The world is closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers
The future's in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
in the wind of change
Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
in the wind of change
The wind of change
Blows straight into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
in the wind of change
