I really like this movie!
Regarding love, "If destiny is good or bad, my best destiny is in your hands.-I am also." From a romance novel, it is my most intuitive feeling about love in the film. This is one of the few that I have seen in film and television works, and it can be called "just right" love. Its occurrence, its development, its results, its future, everything is reasonable, there is no excessive hypocrisy, no chaotic misunderstandings, just simple likes, simple guards, simple contradictions, simple breakups, simple Coincidence-is the simplest and purest form of love. This is the love that makes people look forward to the most: Girls are favored by "male gods" and are with the seniors they admire; they feel each other's lives, accept things they don’t catch cold, make changes for each other, and enrich themselves. They appreciate each other and fulfill each other’s growth, and even if they are reluctant, even if they are troubled, they still consider each other. Such love, even if separated, is a very precious memory.
Regarding ideals, the most similar thing between the protagonist Mia and Adam is that they have been working hard. Mia is the abbreviation of the most ordinary person: She lives seriously, is obsessed with cello practice and enjoys it. This makes me feel very touched. I started to learn piano at the age of 5, but my level of six years is not as good as my friend’s level of three years, because I was extremely inattentive when practicing piano, and I would peek at novels. It was always my mother who said, What time is it", and I never practice fully. It may be that I am not obsessed with this, but looking back on the first half of my life, I didn't have too much obsession or concentration on anything. Therefore, she is not ordinary: she also doubts herself and is not confident. In her words, she is not somebody, but she persists. Therefore, many choices are actually very simple. Stopping will never make a difference. In terms of what you can really enjoy, work hard and persevere, regardless of whether it makes money or not. This is the most important thing. .
Regarding the choice, this is the feeling that touches me the most. I don’t know if it’s what the director wants to convey the most: Many times, I am afraid of failure and afraid of facing the unknown ending, but only now I know that the most admirable thing is that you know Knowing that you will become an orphan when you open your eyes, knowing that the old family has been wiped out, knowing that all that you have cherished the most are gone; but still choose to accept it and choose to wake up!
Regarding the most touching episode, it was her grandfather's monologue when Mia was in a coma. Among them, my grandfather said: Sacrifice is what we do for the one we love. I now think that this sentence may be the main theme of the film, because whether Mia's father, grandfather, or the male protagonist Adam, they all practiced this sentence. At the same time, it also reminds me of the sacrifices of my parents: when my wife was pregnant, she transferred to the company and went home to accompany her; for the family, she gave up the opportunity of promotion in other places and returned to the original city... The choices made again and again cannot be criticized because they are great enough. At the same time, her grandfather also said that because everyone has left, even if he wants Mia to keep alive, it is not easy, so even if she chooses to leave, it doesn't matter. When I saw this, I slipped through a lot of things in my heart, but now I can’t pick it up again—this kind of feeling is wonderful.
