People are like rainbows, let it be me

I have seen too many first love stories full of regrets. The word first love seems to be synonymous with "sour". Therefore, I was fascinated by the freshness and sweetness of "FLIPPED". The two children guessed each other since the age of 7, so natural and beautiful, even if the whole way of growing up was full of small misunderstandings and confusions, I just used my true feelings to add to the heartbeat of this paragraph. flavor.

The story is told from the perspectives of the two protagonists. The little Jiujiu in the hearts of the two children was revealed one by one, unlike the senses that adults have long since agreed upon. They have their own speculations and understandings of the surrounding things, fully revealing the innocence and childishness, making people laugh from the very beginning. Bow down in this invincible little freshness.

The bridge section is equally refreshing. Guarding the big tree, throwing eggs in the storm, and the basket boy, I am amazed that the rust is in my life, and I am about to be suffocated by the floating clouds. It is like walking into the jungle after the rain and taking a deep breath of the moist air there, and living from the heart little by little. The feeling of coming. Foreign film critics said that the character plot of this film was set too perfect, it could have more connection with reality and have a deeper meaning, but I felt it was just right, just like the matcha mousse after the meal, just the right amount of freshness and sweetness. , to neutralize the salty and greasy dinner, why ask for more?

I don't know what the tone of the original novel is, but the tone of the film is the beauty full of life. The use of the lens matches the large and small of the story, sometimes it is a blue sky and verdant American land, and sometimes it is a street of a white community that is full of vitality. The film is like a golden stick, bringing a black-and-white photo in the 1960s to life, letting the young actors who were born after 1995 wear the cotton plaid shirts and earth-colored knitted sweaters of that era, which are simple and lovely. Without losing style.

Among the works of ROB REINER that I haven't seen much, "FLIPPED" has a similar look and feel to "WHEN HARRY MET SALLY". The same fresh and interesting narrative, the same humor and constant moving, a pair of small children, a pair of big children, on the long road of mutual promise, each step seems to be subtle, but the changes that actually affect the extension are clearly portrayed, compared to telling a story. , the director's will is more to show the psychology of the protagonists. This makes ROB REINER's emotional film more interesting than the plot itself, making it unique.


The stubborn and kind Julie knew that Bryce was such a person in her young life. Although it took Bryce a few years to identify his emotions. There are rejections, misunderstandings, deceit, and lies. But still can not resist the pure and beautiful feeling. When the two little guys planted the plane tree in the yard, I suddenly had the urge to fall in love. Of course, when I saw that Bryce kept cheating on Julie and throwing her eggs in the trash, I really wanted to slap him!

At the moment of the heartbeat, you will find that the world is so wonderful.

"Some people are superficial, and some people are golden and jade-like, but they fail. One day, you will meet a person who is as beautiful as a rainbow. When you meet this person, you will feel that other people are just floating clouds."

This person, I Encountered, but do not know how to cherish. . .

Flipped quotes

  • Chet Duncan: Some of us get dipped in flat, some in satin, some in gloss, but every once in a while you find someone who's iridescent, and once you do, nothing will ever compare.

  • Juli Baker: [on why she's interested in Bryce] I guess it's something about his eyes... or maybe his smile.

    Richard Baker: Well, what about him?

    Juli Baker: What?

    Richard Baker: You have to look at the whole landscape.

    Juli Baker: What does that mean?

    Richard Baker: A painting is more than the sum of its parts. A cow by itself is just a cow, a meadow by itself is just grass, flowers... and the sun peeking through the trees is just a beam of light, but you put them all together... and it can be magic.
