You are the gap in my part

Out of reach The whole film does not directly highlight the title of the film

I see two types of people in the society intertwined with the inaccessibility of the other side of their lives and gradually fill in that missing piece

The pacing of the movie is very good, the conflict points are in the right place, and the conflict is always constructed when it seems that everything is perfect and suitable to go on. Enrich the content of the movie and make it more realistic and fuller.

About friendship Maybe people who are similar become friends Maybe people who complement each other become friends but there is no absolute attribution. Phillip and Dell are the latter and they are also extreme representatives of two types of people in society. Phillip and Dell may not be the best pairings but There will always be thoughtfulness and generosity which are indispensable in any intimate relationship

About love Although the focus of the movie is not this, I am still moved by Phillip's nostalgia and deep love for his deceased wife. Dell, even though he seems cynical, is passionate about women, but he still hasn't abandoned the wife who once kicked him out of the house after he became rich. At the same time, it can be seen that the two have a lot in common in terms of quality, loyalty, kindness and responsibility

Touched, warm, humorous and meaningful, this is what this movie brought me

    It's not a bad remake, and Nicole Kidman is so gorgeous

    I always feel a very sad thing. The male protagonist got to know the upper-class people and made the leap from a small gangster to a white-collar worker. Explain that the contact is important
