Plain as water, is the essence of life

This is a film about love and loyalty. Married couples face different temptations the night after their husband's business trip, and the two also make different choices. I believe that there is love between joey and alex. When the day comes and alex takes a taxi and leaves alone, you can see the reluctance and regret from the expressions of the two. And between micheale and the woman who slept with him, there was more just desire and nothing to do with love. After all, men and women have different views on sex and love. Women cannot separate love and sex, while men can separate the two clearly. After a night of infatuation, micheale returned home early because of remorse. While hugging his beloved wife, he saw the shoes she was wearing when she went out with another man the night before. Both of them knew exactly what happened, but they didn't say anything.


Keira Knightley has always been an actor that I admire very much. She expresses her wife's confusion, jealousy, anxiety, panic and hesitation when she encounters love through her in-place performance. The performance is very good. Sam Worthington has not starred in too representative works since "Avatar", and his performance in this drama ethics film is also remarkable.


The whole film does not have too many plots, but there are many descriptions of the expressions and details of the characters. The expression method is unique. It is a good film that is rarely available.


After watching this film, I thought of a sentence: plain as water, is the essence of life. Everyone's life is like this, and most people live in ordinary life. There is no difference between working, going home, meeting friends, falling in love, getting married, having children, and fulfilling the responsibilities of life. The same is true of marriage. After experiencing passion, it will turn into dullness, shoulder the burden of life with another person who seems to be a relative, and walk through the long journey of life in a life like water. And most of the derailed life starts with a passionate third party, which is like a pebble, projected into the life like water. The choice is to continue to maintain a water-like life and abide by moral norms, or choose to play with fire and break the peaceful life. Life is always so long and boring, and the choice to play with fire may burn your entire life. Therefore, insipidity is the essence of life. And being able to have an ordinary life is actually a kind of happiness.

I will choose to love the people I should love with all my strength in my limited and dull life, and dedicate my life to it.
