I have been thinking these days that I should watch a romance movie to relax my mind, and watch a romantic movie that is light-hearted, but not an overly farce romance movie.
While waiting to see the special forces a few days ago, I accidentally caught a glimpse of the poster of this movie, the Chinese translation is called "Kiss of True Love", the cast is strong, the leading and supporting roles are all my favorite movies. cast, and the plot synopsis suggests it's a light-hearted romance. A few days later I finally put this film on my schedule.
There were only two people in the theater who watched the movie - including me, and I can't blame anyone for this. I don't know why this 2006 movie has not been introduced until now.
When the heroine appeared, her pig nose was obviously not as scary as she imagined, but rather cute. It was this pig grate that became the family's heart disease. Mom has been doing everything possible to find a nobleman who can marry Penelope. She is convinced that if a nobleman is willing to marry his daughter, the curse will be broken and her daughter will become a normal person.
Over the years, she has done everything she can for her daughter, and she has done everything for her to return to normal, and what her daughter has gotten in the endless blind date is repeated hurt and despair. Until one day, a non-aristocratic young man Maxwell walked into her house for 5,000 yuan, and by chance he stayed, Penelope had his own love for the first time, but Max couldn't solve it because he was not a nobleman. Penelope refused to marry her.
The mother decided to continue to give her daughter a blind date, but the daughter could no longer bear the harm and decided to run away.
Finally, under the pressure of her parents, she decided to sell her photos and live with the money she earned.
And the reporter Raymond, who had been chasing the pig-nosed girl for more than ten years, was finally relieved when he saw the photo he tried to get his hands on. When the pig-nosed girl finally dared to admit that she was different in public, he finally found a place where his self-esteem and conscience were reasonably placed.
Penelope misses the one she loves, so she goes to the Shamrock Bar he mentioned, and it's here that Annie appears.
Ah, Witherspoon, I love her so much. When she played Anne as a little punk, she said to the bartender nonchalantly, "Do you see me like a good wife and mother?" Of course, I kept answering in my mind, of course, why not? Whether it is a charming blonde or a chick like a street gangster, she is the embodiment of kindness and beauty.
The Oscar-winning actress appeared as a supporting role in this film and became another light to illuminate the pig-nosed girl's life.
When Penelope fainted in the bar by running to avoid her parents, Annie took off the scarf she had been wearing around her face, and everyone recognized who she was. But there was no ridicule, no sarcasm, and no hostility. Annie looked at her with a smile. Penelope finally understood that a true friend wouldn't mind whether she had a pig nose or a human nose. She finally understood that this pig nose was not worth letting herself deny everything about herself. . Because of Annie's presence, she finally yelled at her mother, I like the way I look! !
I was deeply surprised when I saw this, the Chinese title misled me, I thought it was a gender-reversed version of the story of the frog prince, the last kiss to rescue the princess, but no, the curse was blurred, the one who rescued the princess It's the princess herself.
Mom finally admitted that she was so focused on making her daughter a normal person that she forgot that even with a pig nose, her daughter was still worthy of love.
What the film wants to tell us more, I think it should be: instead of waiting for the love of others, we might as well learn how to love ourselves first.
At the end of the story, the princess went to the commoner prince and finally got together.
This is far from the fairy tale love story I thought, but it shocked me deeply.
In the movie theater, there were only two people watching. I put my foot on the back of the chair in the front row and watched the movie very uncivilized. When I went out, I thought, my life is beautiful because of the movie.
There are many things I can't get, and many things I can't take with me.
But when I'm dying, I'll try to think hard about these movies I love.
I left the movie theater so happily, and I left this world so happily.
