Orange and apple love

I am an orange and you are an apple, but in the end we are all fruits.

A very funny and pleasant movie. Last fall, the movie on the first night of Movie Night, a foreign teacher's after-school program, was not watched there because the classroom was full. However, I have been thinking about it, and I finally made up for this regret today. It really is a very good movie.

The story is quite simple and there are no twists and turns. The Greek girl disregarded the family’s opposition to fall in love with a non-Greek man and eventually entered the wedding hall. Although her parents opposed and had always doubted the success of such a marriage with different family backgrounds, the facts proved that the power of love is great and the power of tolerance Different people can come together to eliminate the barriers.

This movie seems to have only the heroine as the main character, and all the stories revolve around her. In fact, this story is indeed the heroine, or the story of the heroine and actor alone. The heroine was originally the screenwriter of this movie. Although this love story is very simple, from love at first sight to marriage, the journey went smoothly, but I don't think the story is plain, but it is moved by the sincere plot of life in the story.

The heroine's father is quite traditional and has always wanted to prevent this love between different ethnic groups. But he did not use any strong means to interfere. When he realized that his daughter's heart was irretrievable, he finally defeated his prejudice and tried to adapt to such a reality. At the end of the film, he used a wonderful wedding banquet to bring the two families together. Hearts are connected together: "Here tonight we have apple and orange. We are different, but in the end, we are fruit." No matter how stubborn parents are, they still love their children, and everything they do is for their children. Happiness. As long as the children are happy, the parents will also be happy. This is the greatness of family affection.

The hero also made a lot of sacrifices in order to integrate into this huge Greek family. This is the greatness of love.

I really like a line in the movie:

Don’t let the past determine who you are, but let the past become part of your future achievements.

This is where this ordinary movie can impress ordinary people.
