I really like the confidence shown in this movie. Although the title is very similar to a TV series, the test music is fascinating enough. The director seems to disdain to show the life process of the hero and heroine, and the sweet scenes are cut bluntly with disapproval, leaving more scenes for conflict. (But this doesn't affect the cute flirting and sexy sex scenes at the beginning ^^) But it seems that the director doesn't care about this, the whole film seems to be a splicing of several life clips, I don't know if this is the convention of old movies or the director's self-righteousness, But the wonderful dialogue and acting completely killed these small problems.
When I saw the second half of the film, I couldn't help but wonder, since when did romance films stop "speaking", and became the expression of the small, fresh and beautiful aesthetics of various artistic shots. The way to enter the pure fairy tale world of the hero and heroine, this movie made me feel the power of dialogue, not only the quality but also the quantity.... I basically did not appear a few times in the film, and it is also about to break up. , quarrels, speeches, transactional narratives, (not that cute little talk...) no time to explain this to the audience.
The director has a kind of insistence, so this movie never compromises like katie himself, and his true character has not changed. I don't know if this film started the breakup of lovers not because they no longer love each other, but because they do not pursue the same life. But it is indeed the purest thing to do. In today's TV or movies, it may not be possible to have such a romantic scene with a child and a father disappearing...
Maybe that era was really a progressive era, maybe now We have really become conservative. From the point of view of movies, we are always timid, wandering in the gap between various moral criticisms, never serious, everything is a joke, and the movies we make are often seen by people. No impression. A girl who loves politics like katie is now basically considered a douche bag rather than cute.
Maybe it's a bit too much to say, but sam in Sex and the City said that this movie is a chick flick. After watching the movie, although I can't agree with it, I can also smile at this understanding. If this is the case, I can only say that it was from that era. The chicks and little gays are more tasteful than they are now.
