Shock and Fusion

Muriel 2022-04-15 08:01:01

A wedding is a fusion of two families and a shock to both families.
The wedding described in the movie is in a very special background, so that various small things in the wedding are magnified and clearly displayed.
Just imagine, two people who don't know each other and are even hostile to each other are suddenly asked to live together. What will they do? Perhaps the analogy is inappropriate, but the mothers of these two families are in this awkward situation.
The biggest obstacle between two people who love each other is not from themselves, but from the two families. In the movie, the various conflicts and the performance of each person before the whole situation collapses, in reality, it is a regular occurrence. At that moment, I feel like everyone is reflecting on their own family.
And the movie will always pass by real life, it is always a fairy tale living in everyone's heart. The plot behind the movie must have killed a lot of creative brain cells from the screenwriter of the movie. Although it is not perfect, it is still satisfying.
What impressed me the most was the "Sabrina breathe" that appeared many times in the movie. Love is so simple. Usually, the simpler things have more connotation.

Jumping the Broom quotes

  • Willie Earl: [to Chef, after catching him being intimate with Blythe] I mean, I know you ain't got your private parts out around all this good food, do you? And, second of all, do you have any kind of relationship with some Vaseline, lotion or anything? Your knees look like you been prayin' in some chicken flour!

  • Reverend James: Sabrina, dear, I understand that you love each other and that you're maybe even meant to be together. But I should warn you that sometimes life will really test you.

    Sabrina Watson: Well, we'll pass. I mean, Reverend James, Jason was sent to me. He's my soul mate.

    Reverend James: That's so sweet. But even a soul mate can really test you.
