When all good things are no longer good

After watching Drive, I began to like Ryan Gosling. Later, I started to look through his previous movies and found this once-overlooked movie, all good things, a suspenseful story based on real time.
A rich second generation fell in love with an ordinary girl, in his eyes, this girl is perfect. They started to live an idyllic life. They had a small shop named all good things. Those few minutes of footage felt like a fairy tale, very lomo, Kirsten Dunst felt beautiful to the extreme. But then, as Ryan's David begins to take over his father's business and Katie starts to study medicine, the film starts to get heavy and has an air of unease because of the child's problems, because of David's childhood mother.
climax, ending. The old David said i miss her in front of his father's bed, and then returned to the previous scene of David and Katie's beautiful idyllic life.
I have always felt that many movies always start with all kinds of charm and perfection, but at the end it is a kind of tragedy that ends. I don't want to look at David from the perspective of crime, but I prefer to think of him as an innocent. In front of all the love, the child of help shows a variety of extremes in order to have it, a kind of surprise, a kind of sighing sadness.
I just want all good thins to stay at the best time and not move forward.

    The director has great ambitions, but he has no ideas and control, and wastes good materials and good actors. It's a lot of fun to play Sling and Durnst. Guslin is really a very good actor, and he is more and more fond of acting in boring and unattractive films.

    It's a pity for a good script and good actors. The plot is messy and procrastinated. = = I think the only bright spot is Gosling~~~

All Good Things quotes

  • Katie Marks: I've never been closer to anyone, and I don't know you at all.

  • David Marks: It's not awful; it's just different. People talk to each other. And there's a ham, with pineapple on it, and little cherries on it...
