Valentine's Day is approaching, and romance movies have begun to overwhelm the sky again. After the 80s and 90s, we have all reached the age of talking about marriage, getting married and having children. But how do we choose, what will marriage, love, life be like?
Flowers, fine wine, the crowd, Rosie with a little messy curly hair, wearing a dress, sitting there disappointed, like a lost bride, what happened? Go back in time, start, meet, oh, another childhood sweetheart love. When the friend knocked on the glass to remind Rosie to speak, the groom appeared opposite Rosie. No, isn't this Rosie's wedding? Didn't Rosie just say this was the happiest day of her life? No, Rosie is not the bride, but the groom is him. Oh, maybe you will say childhood sweethearts, but you don't have the hand to hold your son, and grow old together with your son, this is normal. Is this a remake of the plot of "You at the Same Table"? ! But Rosie's eyes and expressions tell you that she loves him, still loves him, loves him more than before, she hasn't given up, and Alex's eyes seem to be too. But why, why is it like this now? Even if this is a similar story, we are willing to read it, because it is love! (but it has surprises)
Go back in time again, 12 years ago, at the age of 18. Rosie and Alex kiss in the bar. Friends watching the movie will surely applaud and shout "together, together" in their hearts. But the next second Rosie fell, maybe it was this fall, something went wrong, and the sparks began to turn into tears. At the age of 18, we are adults, that is, this adult season, we are faced with many things, we will choose a partner to dance to end high school, we will cry and hug at the airport and go to college separately. Rosie and Alex are no exception. Childhood sweethearts, no guesses, sometimes make us even ignore gender, friendship and love are silly, sometimes we are full of confidence, thinking that each other will be the only choice. But when that person chooses to go to another person instead of yourself, you will suddenly find that your heart hurts inexplicably. Rosie decided without hesitation to join Alex on the dance floor, but found that Alex seemed a little distracted. As a friend, she decided to support Alex, and the moment Alex walked towards Bethany, she didn't see Rosie's loss. This may be as Rose said in "Titanic": "A woman's heart is as deep as the sea", sometimes it is this deliberate hiding, which may be lost, such as love. It's really Alex's fault that Rosie's gaffe in class, but Alex doesn't quite get it. Alex came to pick up Rosie to the dance, the girl from the past had become a woman, and it was not him who was holding her hand, but at that moment Alex seemed to be hesitating. And that's how opportunities slipped away. Rosie still couldn't calmly watch Alex smile at her, let alone kiss. Under the impulse, Rosie did the impulsive thing.
When Rosie looked at the acceptance letter and happily ran to Alex's house across the street, only to find that Alex and Bethany were together. Compared with this, taking complete precautions and still winning the prize with a 10% winning rate is a bigger blow. When Rosie was most lost and helpless, Alex was not by her side. And Rosie finally decided to swallow all the pain and grievances alone. When Alex came to see Rosie, he happily held his notice just like Rosie at that time, but did not notice Rosie's red and swollen eyes.
At the airport, Rosie understands that they may really be separated. Rosie is a brave enough woman, he did not tell Alex that he was pregnant, and gave birth to a daughter to raise alone. PS: I think Rosie's parents love Rosie very much. Although her mother is a little nervous, she is still very supportive of taking care of her daughter. This may be why Rosie is so optimistic and resolute. The birth of a child is no small matter. After all, Alex finally knew. Rosie spoke her mind and said goodbye to Alex again. Rosie lives alone, takes care of children, works, and lives. Alex also has a life of his own, but finds that something is not right, so he invites Rosie to come to America. Unbeknownst to him, Rosie came to the United States with joy and had a great time playing with Alex, like a loving couple, but Rosie found that Alex no longer needed herself in her life. After the quarrel, Rosie returns home sad. When she saw her daughter's painting, she decided to give her a complete home. On the other hand, Alex decided to re-select. When Rosie's father died, Alex hurried back, but Rosie was already married. Before leaving, Alex wrote down his thoughts at the airport and sent it to Rosie, but it was hidden by Greg. But Greg is not a good man after all, Rosie cut it off with a quick knife, neat and tidy. Friends watching the movie will definitely applaud Rosie's punch. And Rosie found out why Alex asked herself that, he came back not only to express condolences to his father, but also for her. Alex's letter (thank God it wasn't destroyed) reads: "Twice I've let you slip through my fingers. Let's stop being afraid and take the chance ." Yet miss this kind of stuff, It's amazing, like gears are interlocked, and everything is wrong. Alex chose Bethany. As for Bethany, Rosie is afraid that from the moment Alex walked towards her, she "hated" her to the core, jealous, that must be, otherwise Rosie wouldn't be angry with this magazine for a long time. Rosie hesitated, but her friend woke up in time. Friends fan the flames, and it seems that the battle for relatives is about to be staged. I have to say that I must give this assist player a thumbs up. A group of people hurried to the United States, Rosie put on a dress. Oh, the pick-up proposal at the airport was probably the fastest flash marriage in history. Oh, God teammate, like it. Closer to home.
But in front of the church, Rosie found that it was still a step too late, and the ceremony was done. At the wedding banquet, the manuscript that should have been said during the marriage rush could only be used as a congratulatory speech. Rosie still said what she said to Alex, but every sentence was like a knife. Katie is a big kid, and she is braver and more aware of love than her mother, so she runs to Toby bravely. And it was at that moment that Rosie understood why Alex chose Bethany in the first place.
It's time to say goodbye and Rosie turns to leave again. It seems that at that moment, Bethany also decided to give up Alex, because Rosie had already lived in Alex's heart, and she couldn't. Rosie went back to her hometown to run her own hotel with her friends, and the first guest was the stranger who saw herself in the elevator and listened to her crazy deeds, and everything went back to the beginning. When Rosie turned around, Alex was finally standing behind him. The person holding her hand was finally Alex. When Alex says "Rosie Dunne, can I take you to the dance ?", it really seems to start all over again.
In "Why Sheng Xiao Mo", He Yichen said: "If that person ever appeared in the world, everyone else would become a future. But I don't want to be a future." This sentence touched many young girls, but for many years After that, how many of us have chosen the future, just like Lin Yi no longer has the courage to hold Zhou Xiaozhi's hand in "You at the Same Table". For so many years, we have not lost to time or distance, but to ourselves, to ourselves who have no courage. In the film, Rosie and Alex keep missing, school, career, family, love, children, every problem is so realistic, and we seem to see our helpless figure in the handling of every problem. If Rosie is not with Alex in the end, Rosie should have no regrets, because she has at least fought hard in this life. It seems that even this ending, we have no regrets, the reality, maybe it is, cruel. But when Alex stood behind Rosie, we had to sigh Alex's courage. come back and be together. True and untrue, but at least we believe, this is the end it should be. The film is like the words of Xin Yiwu's novel "So You Are Still Here", "We were lost when we were young, but fortunately, after going around, it turns out that you are still here." This "unwilling to settle" and "so you're still here" are in a hurry, but fortunately, after all, "hold the hand of the son, grow old with the son", also like the title "love, Rosie", has not changed. Love seems to be like that.
how about you? Brave, love, not soon, together?
