The plot of the film is very simple. The hero and heroine of childhood sweethearts missed the chance to be together again and again for various reasons. This plot is very similar to "One Day" starring Anne Hathaway. The difference is that this movie is a comedy, so you know.
Life is a
quiet British town with a mirror , the beach with the sea breeze, the sun-filled afternoon roof, and the glamorous winter night after the snow. These beautiful and humane scenes constitute the background of the whole film. Therefore, in such an environment, whether it is the heroine becoming a single mother who raised her child alone, or the sudden death of her father, or the breakdown and severance of a relationship, it seems less sad and painful. In fact, these sad things have been dealt with calmly, without heartbreaking, and without tossing and turning, just like a page of a book that was quickly turned over.
This kind of tune really makes me like it. Once I thought that a sudden blow made me feel that the whole world had stopped working, and it was dim. But in fact, after sleeping, I found that it was not worth mentioning. It is true that the experience of the hero and heroine in the film cannot be without bitterness, but the film chose to present its beautiful side. Heartbreak, hesitation, and regrets are all over, replaced by humor, ridicule, and optimism. Even the best friend of the heroine rosie said straightforwardly: Look at you, I know I'm not miserable. So, life itself is meaning, be born, live, just like that, why not be happy?
I don't think that the film deliberately reduces the sorrow and sadness, and enlarges the joy and happiness for the sake of comedy. I also think that sadness is an indispensable precious experience in life. I think the film conveys an attitude—life is a mirror. When you smile at it, it will smile at you; if you cry at it, it will cry at you.
We go upstream
Many people may be confused, what is the reason for the repeated misses of rosie and alex in the film. Obviously they spend more time together than anyone else, and understand each other better than anyone else, but they always talk duplicity at critical moments. Isn't this too pretentious?
I remember that Wang Xuebing’s role in the movie "Northern Love" had such a line: The first half of life is love, and the second half is family affection. This sentence sums up the real situation of many married couples: In family relationships, the passion of previous love has already been burned out, and what keeps the marriage is the feeling of humility that has evolved into family relationships. However, in the film, Rosie and Alex are just the opposite. The long-term companionship between them is to some extent the experience of marriage in advance, that is, they already have the concept of "family affection" between them. Therefore, in the face of any unstable factors that may destroy the solid system they have established, they often cowardly choose to be content with the status quo. At the same time, they also have a sense of luck, thinking that the other party will come back to them. Therefore, getting their true love is actually upstream, which is more difficult than ordinary people.
And when they finally realized the true feelings in their hearts, the arrangement of fate became the biggest variable, so they became two parallel lines forced to face each other, eager to break the shackles but lacked courage. But as long as one person took such a small step, all the dominoes would be overthrown immediately.
I also had a question: Do they care if Rosie and Alex are divorced, have children, and their lives are in a mess? The film stopped abruptly on the beautiful seaside, and I answered myself: Only if I love it deeply, can I put it down gently.
The coward of love
is still in "Northern Love", Wang Xuebing said another line: Love is like a ghost, everyone has heard of it, no one has seen it.
Returning to the title, love, rosie is the signature of the letter, and after receiving a letter from Alex expressing his intentions, Rosie did not send a reply, but went directly to alex. This is her reply.
Two cowards who faced love finally learned to be brave.
I think the movie is not saying that the right people will be together eventually, so don't worry about missing it. Instead, it tells us that if you were brave enough not to deceive yourself in the first place, there will be fewer setbacks in your love.
Love, rosie, literally translated as loving you, Rossi, in fact, there is a word in the middle, love you "of" Rossi, yes, I always love you, love until I pretend I don’t love you, love until I can’t Don't love you.
Love is like a ghost, is it too mysterious, or are we too scared to look for it?
Maybe one day, before you are about to kiss someone on the lips, you can gently close your eyes and curse in your heart: Damn it!
The coward finally saw a ghost.
