"Booming Heart" is pure and ignorant

Sterling 2022-03-26 09:01:06

Beating Heart is directed by Rob Reiner, based on the novel of the same name by Wendellen van der Annan. The film follows Julie Baker's devout belief in three things: the purity of trees, the hygienic eggs from the chickens she raises in her backyard, and the fact that one day she will kiss Bryce Roski. This is a simple and direct story, but because the director is very subtle when dealing with details, the subtlety touches people's hearts and has strong positive energy. Although it is an underage love, it is simple and beautiful under the correct guidance of parents. After watching it, people feel that the things around them have become beautiful again. It is this pure and beautiful ignorant feeling conveyed by the film, which makes readers have endless aftertastes. Therefore, it has a strong response in the United States and many foreign audiences like it very much.

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.
