unexpectedly moved

At first, I thought the immortality setting was a bit silly, but I didn't expect that at the end, I was deeply moved. William met the woman he once loved again, and he didn't choose to abandon his wife Ellie. Even though he knew about Adeline's life experience, he still chose to accompany him. The daughter also supports her mother without hesitation in her pursuit of love. The ending is also better. After encountering true love, life is back on track.

Before watching this movie, I didn’t expect that the immortality that many people pursue would also make people so painful. Watching the people around you leave you one by one and meet the people you love, but you can’t stay together for a lifetime. There are countless memories and responsibilities on your body. It's easier to age gracefully

The Age of Adaline quotes

  • Narrator: Ten months after her husband's death, Adaline was driving north to her parents beach cottage where 5 year old Fleming was waiting up for her, when something highly unusual occurred, something almost magical - snow fell in Sonoma County, California. The immersion in the frigid water caused Adaline's body to go into an anoxic reflex, instantly stopping her breathing and slowing her heartbeat. Within 2 minutes, Adaline Bowman's core temperature had dropped to 87 degrees,

    Narrator: At 8:55 a bolt of lightning struck the vehicle discharging half a billion volts of electricity and producing 60,000 amperes of current. Its effect was threefold. First, the charge defibrillated Adaline Bowman's heart. Second, she was jolted out of her anoxic state causing her to draw her first breath in 2 minutes. Third, based on Von Lehman's principle of electron compression in deoxyribonucleic acid - which will be discovered in the year two thousand thirty-five - Adaline Bowman will henceforth be immune to the ravages of time. She will never age another day.

  • Flemming: You don't have to be alone forever. Don't you miss having someone to love? It's been such a long time.

    Adaline Bowman: It's not the same when there's no future.

    Flemming: What are you talkin' about, you got nothin' but future!

    Adaline Bowman: I mean a future together, growing old together. Without that, love is, uh... it's just heartbreak.

    Flemming: It's the same for everybody. How many times has my heart been broken?

    Adaline Bowman: Too many.

    Flemming: If I had your looks and your energy, I'd fall in love tomorrow, I really would.
