How many pounds do I need to repay?

This is a good film that requires your patience to get a surprise.

First of all, I have to confess that when I watched it for the first time, I still watched it carefully for the first half an hour, but I didn't understand what it was about. In the following time, I did a lot of things, smoking, making tea, going to the toilet, squatting on a chair, turning over from the chair while turning left and right, fell to the ground, hit my head against the wall, the chair handles the tail bone, and lay on the ground. I laughed for 10 minutes and didn't get up...Okay, so I've watched it twice when I wrote these words. Good film.

I guess most people will accumulate more and more questions when watching this film without watching the introduction of the film, what is he doing, why is he doing this, and so on. But the appeal of this film lies in this. It does not show you the story content in the order of the development of the event. Instead, it starts with fragments of fragments, making you more memorable as you look back. The main line is the rescue and love of the heroine Ben to the heroine Emliy, if I guess right. There is also a line of images about the car accident and Ben's beautiful wife that have flashed in the form of dreams in the film countless times. Connecting these images will probably understand what the whole film is about.

First post the introduction of the video:

One night, Tim (played by Will Smith) drove home with his wife when he had a car accident. His wife died in a car accident and took another six lives. After the accident, Ben became very depressed and regretted his past mistakes. He decided to commit suicide, but before that, he planned to help some people. He gave his lungs to his brother Ben, and he gave half of his liver to Holly, a black woman who works in the Family Service and Child Welfare Center, and then embarked on a self-foreclosure journey after stealing his brother's tax bureau certificate. The beginning of the film is from here, which also gave many viewers a lot of questions. Later, he gave his seaside house to Connie, a woman who was abused by her boyfriend, and let her and her child leave the nightmare completely. Handed one of his kidneys to ice hockey coach George. Donated bone marrow to Nicholas, a child with leukemia. I found Ezra Turner who is suitable for my eyes (it should be the retina) transplant. At the same time, he fell in love with the woman Emily Posa (heroine) who fits his heart, and felt that life seemed to have new hope. But if he does not transfer his heart to Emily, Emily will soon lose his life. After he explained everything to his friend, he decided to commit suicide. In the end he became Emily's heartbeat.

Tim, the male protagonist who appears as his younger brother Ben, is a very brave man with a conscience. Not to mention how he bravely donated his organs to help those in need, I just want to recall his beautiful love with the heroine. Girls, there will always be more attention to love.

The first thing that touched me is that Ben sneaked into Emily's house and spent the whole night repairing her cherished machine. I have also met such good people who give silently and do not ask for anything in return. I am grateful when I see this thinking of them involuntarily. I am also a lucky person. After Emliy took Ben to visit her workshop, the picture changed, and suddenly it turned to the picture of two people laughing and cheering and the big dog that is not good-looking in the grassy shrubs under the bright sun, and the music slowly sounded... It's so romantic! What fascinates me the most is that the grassland and bushes are not green, but are slightly yellowish green in late summer and early autumn. There are several close-up shots of Emliy interspersed in this romantic picture, all of which are smiling brightly. Her smile is because the person she likes is in front of her.

After a night of passion, Ben dedicated his heart to his beloved girl. I really hope that the ending can give some more hints: that lucky girl can be more lucky, and from then on will give birth to her lover's child with the heartbeat of her lover, and give her love to both people to their children for the rest of her life...Of course this It's my own fabrication. The real ending was also very touching. The former blind pianist looked at Emily with bright eyes, and the two people hugged each other because of the same person.

After watching the whole film, I still didn’t understand the origin of the film’s name. Later, after watching the introduction, I realized that it came from Shakespeare’s "The Merchant of Venice." To repay. The title alludes to Ben. He felt that the 7 people who died in the car accident he caused were debts owed by him, so he had to repay the 7 people who needed help to seek conscience comfort.

Extreme, maybe. But from the bottom of my heart I admire his approach. I also have a conscience, but I don't have the courage to repay it like him. If needed, if I must, how many pounds do I have to pay back to forgive me?
