It was a good movie for me, but it didn't end on the best end.

My heart is struggling between giving four stars and five stars. The reason for the struggle is nothing more than the scene of the new york times on the plane at the end of the movie. After the heroine said "the new york..." Asking if there are any newspapers in Hindo, I think this scene gives me the feeling that it is more like squinting at the imbalance and disparity in the status of men and women. Maybe you would say that this is the heroine's voluntary decision, but this decision is still for the "family" around her. If the heroine was sitting on the plane by herself at that moment, I believe her choice would be more loyal to her heart, and Not to endure the hope of the heart for the sake of others.

If it weren't for the last scene, I would never hesitate to give it five stars, but after all, this is a good movie. Although it does fly in the ointment in the end, overall, five stars are worth it.
