Take This Waltz The trio of waltzes have




always featured Canadian actress Sarah Polley, such as (Don't Come Knocking, The Claim, Exotica, My Life Without Me, Mr. Nobody, The Sweet Hereafter). Maybe it was the first time I saw her work. It was all because of her and Michelle Williams that I decided to come in and watch.


A brief introduction from imdb summarizes the story: A happily married woman falls for the artist who lives across the street.


Maintaining a marriage is never easy, especially for young couples who have only been married for five years and have no consensus on whether to have children or not. Temptation is harder to resist.


Margot (Michelle Williams) and Lou (Seth Rogen ("50/50")) are one such couple. Tomorrow and tomorrow will be like candied beans, and then a third party who is stunned and absent-minded appears and the world is spinning.


In fact, the freezing three feet is not a day's cold, even if it looks like a little cold water this time, there is still no freezing.


Director Sarah Polley portrays the two couples who are flirting and joking with each other day and night and then occasionally being relatively silent.

I really liked the pool scene.


Luke Kirby, who plays Daniel, is handsome, and he is really hard to resist! :) The


film handles the emotional connection of the three very seriously, but without losing the humorous element. Especially Lou, who specializes in chicken cookbooks.


Actually, I didn't expect Margot to leave Lou in the end. The new beginning with Daniel was her imagination. Then the last scene echoes from the beginning to the end, Margot is baking cookies, it turns out that it is the stack of cookies in the oven in the first scene. It turned out that it was no longer the home where Lou lived with. If you leave a relationship or a marriage because of one person, when the enthusiasm fades, will there be a new temptation?


Daniel and Margot walked together in front of the lighthouse, Daniel said: Fortunately, we didn't wait for decades (that Nova Scotia postcard for Margot is really romantic!), really?


Faithfulness is not an easy task.


The OST is very good, I should buy it if I find it.


There are tears again, and I like it very much.

    The subtitles are terrible, the colors are gorgeous, and the heroine is ugly. Maybe too young, I can't understand the heroine.

    Please do not marry young literary and artistic youth who pursue passion and freshness, 10,000 times! Marriage is an ethical relationship, 10,000 times! Well, these outrages just come from the jealousy of young people living in a society that likes to force young people to marry out of obligation and the divorce rate is rising year after year.

Take This Waltz quotes

  • Margot: Sometimes I'm... walking along the street and a shaft of sunlight falls in a certain way across the pavement and I just wanna cry. And then a second later, it's over. I decide because I'm an adult, to not succumb to the momentary melancholy; And I thought that sometimes with Tony, she just had a moment like that. A moment of not known how or why, and she just let herself go into and there was nothing anyone could do to make it any better. It was just her and the fact of being alive, colliding.

    Daniel: Or maybe you just didn't figure out what it was.

  • Lou: [to a hesitant Margot] Get in. What are you doing? What the fuck? You're going to ride in a rickshaw!
