"Before we go" - it's not too late to get ready.

The Chinese translation is called "Midnight Encounter", which also fits well with the content of the film; Chris Evans' directorial debut, and the producer, he should have spent a lot of thought on this film. So I was afraid that other actors would not be able to perform that feeling, so I also acted as the male lead Nick.
The film tells about the early morning. Nick, who was originally making excuses for himself not to go to the wedding, met Brooke, a married woman who was anxious to go home at the station in Central Park Plaza. The two ran around for Brooke's plan to go home. Along the way, they gradually got to know each other and developed feelings. Finally, at the train station where they parted, the two sides still maintained a rational distance from each other; they separated after blessing each other.
The plot of the movie is well understood and smooth, and I think it can be understood as a road movie in a certain sense - using the "11" bus to go all the way, and all kinds of cute, funny, contradictory, and quarrel.
Nick's character is a bearded man blowing a sexy sax, with a humorous personality and an indecisive attitude towards relationships; Brooke's character is a lost little master who finds out that her husband is cheating, with a candid personality and an indecisive attitude towards love The attitude of daring to love and daring to hate; at the same time, in the same space, such a "meet for a reason" makes two people who are also troubled by emotional problems have a sense of intimacy that is [greater than] the strangeness of the first acquaintance between them . (I know this is winding, you read slowly!)
I can't say that Nick fell in love at first sight when he first met brooke, because Nick's emotionally timid speed gave him reason to console himself why he didn't go to the wedding to meet his ex-girlfriend, and it also allowed him to Leave everything behind for now to help brooke find a way home. In this process, I didn't have a big touch on Nick to suddenly feel: "wow! This is the girl I want"; instead, it was the emotion that was generated in the dialogue, collision and exclamation again and again. It was even more impossible for Brooke to fall in love with Nick at the beginning. She was thinking about getting the breakup letter that was played back at home, and she kept thinking "I love my husband..." in my heart. In my understanding, she is Such a woman: As an art consultant of an art company, what she does is to buy various artworks for the company; so her profession is a microcosm of life for her - once she identifies this artwork, she will travel from all directions to the world. Come here, persevere to buy. So her husband is a work of art that she recognized at the beginning; and later, an authoritative expert she believes in tells her that this work of art is not good and not suitable for you; BINGO! The astrologer was the expert, and when he said, "You have a great future with this guy next to you," Brooke began to waver. (I guess she must be a Sagittarius, only I am a big Sagittarius who can be so easily influenced haha~~)
So it can be seen that boys' emotions are slowly recognized in the process of dating again and again; but girls Seems more likely to start changing with a single touch (women are fickle haha.)
The two began to have feelings for each other and the mutual confession was not done in one go, why? This is the preparation to be done before we go - Nick's 6-year memories of ex, after meeting at that wedding, he completely let go, and he is ready for a new relationship; brooke wrote about her husband's cheating behavior After a vicious breakup letter, but she still loves him deeply, she is not ready for a new relationship. So that's it, at the train station, there are not too many words, only mutual blessings. Before we can continue to party and socialize tonight, you and I have to have a whole new selves. This is also a close-up of the multiple-choice question "would you like to return?" when brooke opened the hotel opinion survey form at the end - doesn't this imply our expectation?
Correct the mistakes made before, and then find a way to make up for this mistake, so that you can get better results; this is what brooke wants, she doesn't want to regret it, she doesn't want to leave regrets for her future self that she didn't fight for ; This is why she insisted on going back to her husband to make it clear; even so, she can make a good plan for the next step, keep going~~


PS: Since it is a road film, I have to talk about the road film Street View is up! Evaluation is: very New York! Passing through the luxurious commercial streets, there are also typical Chinatowns, and empty subway passages; while watching a movie, I took a look at the street scene of New York, which is great!
