I fell in love with Meg Lane because of that French Kiss.
At that time, Xiaomei had not lost her reputation because of Russell Crowe. She had short blond hair and big gray-blue eyes. She wore a white shirt, jeans, and a black small suit, and she came out shining brightly.
Katie played by Xiaomei is a house girl. Her fiancé went to France for business, but fell in love with the French sexy bomb, and planned to dump Katie and marry a French woman. Katie flew to France for her fiancé and met Luke the French beast on the plane. Luke's girlfriend and his brother are married. Luke is going to go back to his hometown in the countryside to grow grapes. The old one is the diamond necklace he stole and a grape seedling. Katie got the necklace by accident. In order to get the necklace back, Luke promised to help her destroy it and let Katie's fiancé return to Katie's arms.
In the end, of course, Katie fell in love with the Beast Man, and the two lived a happy life in the French countryside.
There are many interesting little details in this film, such as Katie's flight phobia, Katie's Eiffel Tower plot, Katie's lactose intolerance, and the consequences of her funny little ailments, etc. Wait. This one-dimensional house girl is in chaos in France, but it also shows her romantic and innocent side. In order to change her mind, she was frightened half to death by plane to France, her luggage and passport were stolen by a French scoundrel, and she was crawling in a high-end restaurant wearing a beautiful dress. This may be the reason for attracting Beast Man. Finally, when the Beast Man seduces the French woman and makes out with her, Katie's name is called. So does Katie.
It is said that the author created it based on his own experience studying in France, in order to show cultural differences. But all I see is the language barrier. American men love French women, and American women can still romantically attract French men when they come to France. However, the American shirt and jeans were always more Katie's style, and the dress at the end didn't suit her at all.
It was because of this film that I fell in love with Meg Lane, with her playful short hair and big elf eyes, her walking posture was a little boyish, unpretentious, and a little neurotic. In short, she was the most perfect heroine in my eyes. Looking at her other films, I am always a little disappointed. The long hair in "Sleepless in Seattle" and "When Harry Met Sally" really doesn't suit her, and the short hair series "City of Angels", "You've gotta" a mail", um... it's still not perfect, Nicolas Cage is so ugly, and the collocation with Tom Hanks is a bit boring, and the only thing that reminds me over and over again is "French Kiss".
When Sister Sweet's years are getting old, I can't bear to watch her movies anymore. Occasionally watching TV today, I caught sight of "Crazy for Love". I also watched it when I was madly infatuated with Xiaomei, but the beginning without Xiaomei was too long, and the male protagonist whose forehead took up half of his face was strong and short. Before Xiaomei appeared, I lost my patience. This time I revisited it because of the peculiar atmosphere of 90s movies that attracted me. When Maggie in a motorcycle suit came out, I no longer regretted my patience. She still has white-blond messy short hair, and the little smoky suits her eyes very well. The lipstick is a little darker for her current aesthetic vision. The rest are perfect, with the motorcycle suit, which is the style of the current Kate Lanphear.
"Crazy for Love" is still a story of betrayal and revenge. Maggie brings Anton, a French bartender, to America (French again!), and small town girl Linda leaves Sam for New York. As a result, Anton and Linda is so in love, Maggie and Sam form a mutual aid group to tear down Anton and Linda, only to discover that they are actually in love with each other.
In fact, the most outstanding thing in the film is not the abandoned pair, but the adulterer Mr. Anton in the pair of "dog men and women". Anton was penniless in France, and was brought to the United States by Maggie, but became a model. After dumping Maggie, he became the manager of a high-end restaurant and robbed the girlfriend of Astro Boy Sam. After being retaliated against, he lost his job, lost Linda's trust, suffered from allergies and fractured the outer band, and was tied with plaster all over his body to beat Tian Tianzi until he couldn't fight back and cried: his favorite is Linda! The poor boy took advantage of Maggie, thinking that if he stayed with Maggie for a while, he could fall in love with her, but he couldn't!
Yes, as the lines say, we can't choose who we fall in love with, just like we can't choose who we are! The one that Meg Lane is always thrown away in movies, but what about in life? She dumped Dennis Quaid for that stupid and ugly Aussie Russell Crowe. What's more tragic is that she lost her family and career because of Russell Crowe, and he abandoned her again.
One of the necessary conditions for a woman's happiness is to fall in love with someone worthy of love, but Meg missed it. She looks good now, but she will never return to that lovely woman with the corners of her mouth upturned. Life is always more dramatic than movies, but the ratio of happy endings is always far less than the ratio of romantic comedies in movies!
