If one day, the child starts to wonder about your love story, do you say it, repackage it, tell it or avoid it? Who do you think of in this second question? Will and his wife are preparing to divorce. Under the questioning of his daughter Maya, he tells three serious love stories.
The mystery of love is that no matter how strange we are, the road to love is similar. For example, it belongs to the mark of youth. No matter how good a man is, a girl or a ghost, there will always be some time to be youthful without worrying about the next 40 years of work. You only need to deal with life on campus, in schoolwork and club activities, and at the moment of graduation, you are even more satisfied - your ambition will soon bring light to the world. Will stands in front of the mirror and earnestly compares himself to the situation of becoming the President of the United States. Is the similar bloodbath also a portrayal of us. If you're still doing this, be genuinely happy for yourself. Forgive my pessimism, some mentality belongs only to youth. It's as if I used to wake up and open the mirror to see myself, and I really feel pleasing to the eyes, rather than looking at the mirror now and leaving the marks on my swollen face early in the morning for sleeping on the side last night. This is the objectivity of life. The fledgling Will felt the gap in New York, a twinkling star in Wisconsin was mercilessly submerged in the colorful New York. At this time, he was planning to propose to his childhood sweetheart school girlfriend Emily. Hold on, does he really want to marry her, or does he think the time is almost up and he should move on to the next chapter? Is the uncertainty about marriage a habitual anxiety when faced with a big decision, or a deep-seated resistance? Perhaps one should ask, which is more? The reality is that the beautiful girlfriend doesn't want to settle down yet, or rather settle down with him. The harsher reality should be, if Will's career was on the right track at this time, would he still choose to propose to Emily. A romantic relationship is simple, but a marriage requires you to bet your whole life—even if the ending doesn’t always go your way, at least when we take this step, we have done an adequate risk assessment.
After breaking up with his first love, he crosses paths with a wise woman who appears in his life like a goddess, Summer. A strand of flowing brown hair makes people smell intellectual and sexy, and under the thick-rimmed glasses, there is an aura of intelligence, which is exactly the type of irresistible Will said. As a journalist, Summer is just in a position to contribute to Will's company-backed campaign for Congress, adding a lot to Will's career. Such a talented person and beautiful woman, with a beautiful family and a good relationship, it happened when Will planned to propose to Summer. Summer found out that the candidate she had covered was incomplete, and she had written negative news about the candidate without discussing it with Will. Will naturally became furious when he found out, and the two parted ways. Will cared about his career, but Summer's career required her to be truthful. He said it was a betrayal, and he didn't know if Summer would have understood it when he heard it. If people do not agree, how can they walk together. This time, I lost to the difference in values. In the final analysis, it is the male protagonist who cannot control the goddess at all, because his pursuit and the goddess are not at the same level.
However, from the beginning to the end, there is another woman beside the male protagonist, April. She has no pursuit in life, no so-called opinions and ambitions, she is just a little girl with a photocopier. The male protagonist can't seem to accept that there is such a negative attitude towards life in this world. In fact, I don't understand why some people always ask for their own lives to be meaningful, and at the same time define how other people's lives should be meaningful. Is it an overbearing obsessive-compulsive disorder? But after an all-night chat with the male lead, April felt it was time for her to do something she thought was cool, like a dream she had always dreamed of—world travel. Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Travel is also a way of self-improvement, which is of course supported by the hero. April seems to have worked hard, but every time he returns to Will's side, he still doesn't seem to be able to catch up with him - he is either proposing to others, or on the way to proposing to others. After experiencing Summer, when he was the most disappointed in his life and career, April was still there to support him as always. So, when he thought that the two of them were going to live happily ever after after a touching confession, April denounced him as a bastard - what did he think of her - a second-best option? . Isn't she worthy to stand by his side when his life is complete? Such an interpretation, the so-called emotional things have become very economical and cold reality. Will also retorted her, saying that you are a middle-aged girl with no ambition, you should plan your career and your life well, instead of just living and mediocrity like you are now. I failed, but at least I tried. A knife-edge argument stabbed both of them, so they weren't together either.
I haven't written a review after watching this movie for a long time, because I don't know how to arrange it so that I don't seem so cynical and utilitarian, because in fact, this is a very healing movie. It is estimated that there is no such thing as destined love in this world, it is just a choice. It is to choose whether we want to walk on the same path or not, and it is to choose whether we want to stand against the storm and approach the people we love. Love, in fact, is not much higher than other things in this world, and this story is not much fairy tale. It is actually very realistic to look at it carefully. If April is still a bookstore clerk many years later, will Will, who is available again, still think that April is an available option? Suddenly I thought of Shu Ting's "To the Oak Tree", which was also a poem I fell in love with when I first read it. It doesn't have to be "lifelong beauty" to be worthy of commitment, nor does it have to be climbed and attached. The longing for love should be that two people can stand side by side, help each other in the same boat, and have the same affection.
Trying hard to be excellent is not to set off anyone, but to make oneself blessed and worthy of fate.
I used to believe in "hard work can be admired", but in fact, I am more grateful: in your eyes, I am the best. And I am confident that we will be better together.
Well, with a twist, this is a pot of chicken soup I boiled for myself.

"To the Oak" Shu Ting
If I love you -
not like a climbing skyflower, I
show myself off with your tall branches;
if I love you - I will
never learn from an infatuated bird,
repeating monotony for the shade It
is not only like a spring, which
brings cool comfort all year round;
it is not only like a dangerous peak, which
increases your height and sets off your majesty.
even daylight.
Even spring rain.
No, these are not enough!
I must be a kapok
tree near you, standing with you as the image of a tree.
Roots, clenched in the ground;
leaves, touching in the clouds. We greeted each other with
every gust of wind
,
but no one
understood our words.
You have your bronze branches and iron stems,
like knives, swords, and halberds;
I have my red flowers,
like heavy sighs,
and heroic torches.
We share the cold wave, wind and thunder, and thunderbolt;
we share the fog, the haze, and the rainbow.
It's as if they are separated forever,
but they are forever attached to each other.
This is great love,
and constancy is here:
love not only loves your stalwart body,
but also loves the position you hold, the land under your feet.
