I was surprised that I asked many friends who love watching movies, but everyone didn't know the existence of this movie. If it weren't for Nicholas' reckoning I would have missed it too.
Watching the 2000 film in 2014, is it too harsh to say old-fashioned.
I haven't watched the whole movie yet, but I can't help but write about my excitement.
We all know the development, and we all know the ending, starting from seeing Nicholas waking up in bed with a bewildered look on his face.
This must be a very old-fashioned, very sweet story. It is nothing more than a conceited and empty rich man who realized the warmth of his family and finally changed his three views.
But it's not here that I am moved.
If we have all made choices about our lives, and we have all experienced different lives brought about by different choices like the protagonists, is the life we are living now the best life we have ever chosen?
Life is full of ups and downs, and if it was like that then it might be completely different now. Full of regret and melancholy. If I used to study hard maybe I could go to England now. Or if I had been studying hard then maybe something bad happened in England and I ended up asking God to give me another chance to just be a normal person.
Before it happened, I couldn't help but think, my life, if something happened, I might be a very good character! I don't want to say that the pursuit of blandness is the same as the big melody, but perhaps, what we are living now is the best version we choose.
