It's only so far away

Is talking about this film after so many years a little overkill?
But since in Hollywood's more and more stereotyped romantic films, I have never seen a movie of true love, or in a romantic literary film that pursues formalism, what I see is more of a boring personal expression. Then let me come to a little memory of the warmth brought by this ordinary story.

Sometimes we really don't know, the distance is actually only so far...

Aside from Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, in the film we only see a man and his father who miss his deceased wife, and a kind man , A gentle woman who always looks forward to love, and of course a young son who loves his father very much. The story happened calmly and naturally, because the youngest son made a call to the radio station on Christmas Eve, and the woman who was about to get married overheard the call, so they began to connect, a little impulsive, began to wander and miss, and began to expect and meet. Hesitation... It

doesn't matter if you go left or right, love is not on the way...

At the end of the movie, the director or screenwriter can also make them miss it in a different way, such as a woman who is late, and a man at the Empire State Building. We will feel sorry for passing the stairs, but we can accept it. But glad they met at last, when they looked at each other with a little hesitation but in amazement, when the man said: It's you?? The woman replied: It's me! I felt love, I felt it was a love movie. Yeah, so I'm saying, what's the point of going left and right, just when you know you're going to meet or you're meeting, what's the point of passing by?

Going back to the movie itself, apart from the touching brought by ordinary stories, there are still nostalgic Hollywood movies in the 1990s, the dull and sensational way, the usual but full of life-emotional character dialogues, and most of what I learned about Seattle through this movie. Rainy days, country ballads playing on the radio... Of course, let's mention the two leading actors. Ryan is the perfect choice for this kind of gentle, cheerful, child-next-door aunt, and Hanks also joins several other actors. Compared with other similar films, the role of this slightly melancholy but warm man is more appropriately performed.

How shocking does a movie really need to be? You just like it, just be a little moved...

    Am I the only one who thinks the screenwriter of this film has a movie fandom? The characters in it are talking about the movie with their mouths open and shut. In addition to Jin Yumeng and Twelve King Kong, the father also mentioned two horror movies with his son: Ghost Street and Fatal Attraction. PS: This film is too Korean drama style.

    I love Jinyumeng. Did someone say this is a love movie for movie fans?
