The story is about a once-in-love couple, Ben and Katie, who, after more than ten years of marriage, have worn out their patience due to trivial quarrels in their lives, and are ready to formally separate when the children go to summer camp and tell the children of divorce. things, but in the process of preparing for the divorce, both of them re-examine the relationship and finally re-accept the process of each other. The acting skills of Michelle Pfeiffer and Bruce Willis are online, the overall presentation of the story is very complete, and the emotional portrayal is also very delicate. It is a very worth watching movie.

Ben and Katie were originally two people with complementary personalities. Ben liked that Katie was well-behaved but smart and interesting. Katie liked that Ben was unruly, romantic and passionate. They both found what they wanted to be in each other. However, although the difference in the way of thinking and behavior between the two can be concealed by the sweetness of their love, they eventually become more and more obvious in the day-to-day discussions after marriage. After a long dispute, neither of them could compromise, and they still could not find a way to live in harmony. In the end, they both fell into silence. Obviously they still love each other, but they feel wronged and can't stay under the same roof. Everyone wants the other to make concessions, like a dead end. Many intimate relationships will enter such a game, and the last party or both parties make concessions and compromises in order to continue the relationship and let it enter a new stage, like two gears destined to work together, the important thing is not the argument is Who has an extra corner or who is missing a piece, but polished to suit each other. The time point chosen by the movie is the point where the couple seriously think about their relationship and really start to compromise. Ben begins to understand why Katie doesn't have time to be romantic with him, while Katie puts down all kinds of resentments before, Accept Ben's informality and start over.

At the beginning of the film, when the two recalled the scenes of quarreling after marriage, I also felt that instead of hurting each other, it would be better to separate and be happy, but at the end, when the little things from love and acquaintance to blind date and stay in the memory reappeared again, I felt again. I think there is still a reason to continue to be together. This is probably the case between husband and wife. Love and hate depend on each other. No matter whether they can stay together in the end, at least not only remember those quarrels, but also remember everything that was beautiful and happy in the past. .

One of the most memorable lines was Katie's: "I said the girl in the helmet was killed by you, but the truth is that if it wasn't for you, that girl probably wouldn't have appeared at all." Being able to meet one can make you It's really lucky to be the person you like.

The Story of Us quotes

  • Rachel: The key to a happy marriage is to accept the essential chasm between men and women.

    Liza: Which is?

    Rachel: A man can mend a fight with sex. A woman can't have sex until they've resolved the fight.

    Liza: Why is that?

    Rachel: It's the basic difference between the penis and the vagina. A penis is a thruster, a battering ram, if you will. Even if it's mad, it can ram. Sometimes it even helps. It's the mad ram principle. However, the vagina - ah, the vagina. The vagina has to be relaxed in order to open and receive. It can't be that gracious hostess in a state of anger. And that goes for blow jobs and kissing as well. Every female point of entry needs to know that the penis is coming... in peace.
