rational outcome

This movie was recommended by a friend and has been urging me to watch it. Finally one day I downloaded it and started to enjoy it quietly.
First of all, I don't like this movie very much. Except for the fact that the plot appeared one after another without any accident, I was also a little puzzled by the final return to rationality.
But back to reality, Rafi undoubtedly gave the right choice. From the moment the two met, the director began to reveal to us the difference between a 23-year-old boy and a 37-year-old woman in detail, until he finally brought his friends home to eat and drink, and the two quarreled to a climax.
However, I was thinking, maybe Rafi should have been able to think of it when he first started accepting, a 37-year-old woman with a successful career can imagine the difference between the two with her knees. She has pushed but hesitated, but he can give her something she has never enjoyed, and she wants it.
Maybe this is the sadness of love. I got it, it's too close, and it's satisfied. I chose not to care, but I can't care anymore.
The traditional Jewish family where David stayed did not make me feel depressed. Meryl Streep plays a somewhat neurotic mother, and there are many small actions that make people laugh and make people love her interpretation. If you say a little bit of the mood to watch romantic dramas, it's the big sister who gave it. David's mother's opposition from the beginning to the acceptance of Rafi's identity as not a Jew, but she was grumpy about her age, and finally took a tolerant attitude. This series of psychological activities or small actions did not give David and Rafi love. It will bring too much negative impact, so Rafi's choice to break up may be the reality that the director refracted to us is the real thought. In addition, I feel that the development of the ending story is a bit "too jumpy", which makes people feel rushed.
However, the final scene of the film was handled very well, integrating all the romantic factors, plus Uma thurman's warm smile and the classic old song "I wish you love", which finally gave me a reason to be moved.
