go with the feeling

The fun of the film is that we already know the two heroines (one is a strong woman, the other is gentle and virtuous, and both have just suffered emotional trauma, one's boyfriend betrayed her, and the other has been in an underground relationship for three years, and the other is actually with someone else. When a woman is engaged, and she becomes the last person to know, it is easy for the female audience to have a sense of substitution and empathy.) After exchanging houses, they will meet the real man, so the focus is on what kind of encounter there will be and how the relationship will be established. , in the face of all kinds of difficulties how the final outcome.
Although it is two hours long, it involves two romances, so after watching it, I always feel that I love too quickly, my thoughts are unified too quickly, and problems are solved too quickly. (Or have I watched too many literary and artistic films recently, and am accustomed to gentle and open endings, but I can't adapt to this sunny and happy ending in Hollywood?)
Cameron Diaz and Jude Law first have sex and then fall in love. On the screen, they are In the Western tradition, Kate Winslet is considered to be in love first and then sex, and tends to behave in an oriental way. The first paragraph that impressed me the most is that Cameron has not cried since his parents divorced at the age of 15. After knowing that his boyfriend who lived together for two years After cheating on her and going to bed with another woman, she sat in front of the computer, desperately trying to squeeze a tear, but it was embarrassing that she couldn't get down. Ka's performance is very cute and funny, but it still makes the audience a little sad. Sometimes the reality is always so cruel and harsh, people are used to pretending to be themselves, and it is so difficult to reveal the truth. In the second part, the moment I opened the door with Winslet helping the old playwright, the corners of my eyes were still wet. The red carpet aisle, rows of people standing up and applauding you immediately on both sides, looking back at you, the picture full of admiration and laughter represents your life's achievements and the most glorious moment, I am sad because I see others have How much respect and love I long for, but I don't know if I can get the gratitude and memory of even the people around me in my life.
The plot that I think is innovative is the meeting between Ka and Qiu. Qiu is actually Wen's older brother. He is used to going to Wen's in the middle of the night after nightlife at a bar near Wen's house, so the two meet and have a one-night stand. The woman hoped that the man would not mind, and she was going to fly back to LA soon. Qiu couldn't hold back his emotions and said that if the flight might be cancelled, or if she was willing to stay, he would have dinner with friends at a bar tonight, and she really did. At the last second gave up and went back. "Samantha didn't come to find love, but that doesn't mean love won't come to you."
What’s not new is the development after the fact, dating in restaurants, chatting and understanding each other’s backgrounds are still warm and interesting, but the next few scenes-playing in the woods, small ponds, slapstick, chasing, kissing seem relatively weak, it seems that the age long time mtv.

It was only natural that Ka couldn't leave again, because she unknowingly shed tears on the bus to the airport... Excited, excited, happy, she ran home, the "crying lover" was already sobbing, and the two Embrace each other, "After all, you said you love me." It
