Text: I wonder if American movies in the first half of the 20th century were all so delicate and gentle, not as straightforward as they are now, but it is the kind of heartbeat that I love.
It has to be said that it is a very delicate thing to learn about another love film by chance. In "Beijing Meets Seattle", the Empire State Building where Chinese Jiajia and Frank finally got married is the scene that Wen Jiajia loves in "Sleepless in Seattle" mentioned at the beginning of the film. In "Sleepless in Seattle", Annie and Sam meet on the top floor of the Empire State Building, and they eventually become a good match. The origin of this classic scene is that Annie recalls the place where the hero and heroine of the movie "Golden Jade Alliance" meet over and over again.
It can be said that these three films are connected together, and finally let me witness the great and charming charm of love once again. Nickie said: "I haven't seen a beautiful woman since sailing, and I asked myself 'Aren't beautiful women traveling' until I met you, and I didn't feel saved." What a perfect flattery, he was When going to New York to marry a wealthy girl, he thought that it would be a happy journey to have a beautiful company as the company. Look, this is Nickie, a well-known playboy, but when I met her, my life changed.
This is an accidental encounter during the journey. The meeting on a luxury cruise ship, Nickie and Terry met like this, very plain but enough to shake the heartstrings, the heart fire that was lit in that second, the bright eyes in an instant, that It is the spark that can be wiped out when the heart is moved.
Maybe it was Terry's expression and words that didn't adore him like others gave him the heart to conquer, or maybe it was Terry's sharp and mean words that made him more interesting, no matter what, he fell, from the first sight, sunk.
He thought that she would bow down to his charming species like other women, but he didn't want her to be so observant of etiquette. She was grateful to the woman who made her sing from a dance hall to a nobleman who enjoyed a prosperous life.
She said to Nickie: "It was he who told me that I was more suitable to stay in a noble residence with a view."
So Nickie gave in very wisely, and the two chatted like friends every day, making the journey a little more relaxed and happy.
Fate is always wonderful.
No matter when and where they are, the two always meet in a small world, maybe a restaurant, maybe a corridor, or maybe... a swimming pool.
Every accident has deepened their feelings for each other. Those accumulations slowly accumulated and finally broke out at a turning point, just like the gates of a dam full of water opened, and the brain poured out, crazy and painful.
And it all happened in a beautiful place where Nickie's grandmother lived, a beautiful and rich little village with blue sky and blue sea, it felt like Venice, like Greece, like the Aegean . Terry was addicted to this hot land, she listened to his grandmother talking about her precious grandson, and also saw Nickie's talent as an artist that she had never shown, she knew that Nickie was not an incompetent playboy, she suddenly realized that she didn't know him , she's overwhelmed by all the enigmatic things about Nickie.
Finally they fell in love.
However, the fairy tale that I thought it would end here, did not expect that fate has just begun.
The two face the cost of losing their existing stable and prosperous life if they are together, but they still have to stay together firmly. They are willing to work hard for each other to make a living and maintain their family's livelihood. People who love each other give everything, they are very happy and warm.
They met on the top floor of the Empire State Building for 6 months. Seeing them say goodbye to the past and return to their miserable days, they were still satisfied. I was truly moved by them and lamented for them.
However, 6 months later, the accident happened. Terry had an accident the moment he looked up at the Empire State Building. Before that, she told the taxi driver that she was going to get married with joy. Her words were full of urgency and desire. She got the first blessing, but did not realize its wish. At this time, Nickie was hovering at the elevator entrance on the top floor, eagerly looking at the people at the entrance. It's close at hand, but it's far away in the end.
When the lanterns also came to an end, and the storm washed the night in the city, Nickie finally waited until he was disheartened, and he took the ferry where the two first met and left.
And Terry couldn't walk anymore because of the car accident. She begged everyone not to tell Nickie that she didn't want to be a burden to him, so, just like this, two people, in two cities, lived two lives.
Director Xu Shi has a good heart. This painful time was not planned for a long time. It was only six months before they finally met. However, even so, this short 30 minutes also tugged at my five internal organs.
The meeting this time was a little embarrassing when both parties were with their ex-fiancé (wife), and that's why Nickie didn't notice Terry's strangeness, but this sight brought out those sealed memories. Looking up at the top floor of the Empire State Building in the dark, he thought it was time to ask all the words he had held in his heart for a long time.
The second time we met, at Terry's house, Terry seemed uneasy. She wanted to tell him the truth, but she was afraid that he would know the truth. Listening to Nickie's sarcastic but sincere words, Terry could only respond with a smile.
When Nickie was leaving, he mentioned that he had recently given a painting to a woman in a wheelchair, he looked at Terry who had been sitting on the couch motionless, paused, realized what was going on, and left Into the bedroom, confirmed his guess.
In the end, the two finally released their suspicions, hugged tightly, and burst into tears.
Terry said: "Honey, don't cry, if you can paint, I can go, anything can happen, isn't it?"
From then on, the princess and the prince finally lived happily together.
The end.
