But the telling of this story still makes me want to be a critic again.
I believe that when many people see this movie, they will think that he is a typical Hollywood romantic movie, which is the kind of romantic movie with twists and turns. The two were very good at first, then there was a crisis, and then the yin and yang were different. After encountering various misunderstandings by mistake, in the end, the male protagonist or the female protagonist recognizes himself and the other party, and resolves the contradiction.
I thought so too, and opened the movie with an eye-catching appeal to Aniston.
Of course, the various plots at the beginning all laid out such stereotypes, until the first point of contradiction between men and women broke out - the battle of the three lemons.
Then came a series of wars: the pool table battle, the battle for the family territory, the battle for dignity, and finally the love that was forced to turn over the cards and slowly cooled.
Who has won in this series of wars? no. Of course, a war between a man and a woman has only two endings in the end, either a breakup or a compromise.
When this pattern was repeatedly directed, I couldn't help but wonder, is there a fixed formula for the happy endings we've seen before? What is hidden behind this formula?
One of the hidden points I see is asymmetry.
Some people say that all human behaviors are just serving the evolution of DNA. So from this point of view, it's not difficult to explain why such a common (at least I think) war will end up being emotionally broken.
That is, the two are in a relatively similar position in terms of income, social status, social circle and connections.
Both of them have ordinary jobs, the male lead tour guide and the female lead gallery shopping guide. They are not powerhouses like House of Cards, and there is no big gap, such as Notting Hill and Love in Paris;
the social circles of the two people are highly overlapping, their social circles are very fixed;
Then, since they are both half-hearted and my DNA is not more NB because of you, why do I ask you?
In Notting Hill, the male protagonist can endure all kinds of alienation and indifference from the female protagonist. Just kidding, is that a big star? In House of Cards, although the male lead's wife hates him, the two don't even have sex, and the female lead has even found a mistress, so what? But this also shows that there is an unbreakable chain in the marriage and love relationship. This chain can lock each other more firmly than true love, that is, it is not equal.
The director just wants to tell you, look, true love without mutual use is so fragile that three lemons can beat it.
There is no relationship of interest, you accuse him of not being grateful, he accuses you of going to the end of the world, you occupy her living room to play billiards, and she throws your shoes and socks into the corridor in front of her friends. You make a date in front of him, and he opens a shy body in front of you. You lower your ego to cater to him, and he says, hey, stop it, I'm heartbroken. Look, whoever leaves will die.
Overestimating the power of true love is a big mistake that many girls are prone to make. Recently, it broke out that a 14-year-old girl was beaten to pieces by her father because she opened a room with her boyfriend. The girl just uses practical actions to tell everyone that true love is this stalk , how big the damage is.
Of course, many fairy tales may have told us the truth. The kiss of Prince Charming can only be given to the most beautiful girl, and the knights can only rescue the high-status princesses. Liaozhai Zhiyi also said that the fox girls can only be moved. Poor nerds, because the rich have no shortage of money and beauty. When looking back at the story of Cinderella, the super beautiful blue princess dress only covered the shame of naked beauty and money transactions, so what is the real touching point of the story?
Looking back on myself, the moment when the relationship between the two of them hula-la and the building collapsed, everything that kept me from drowning in love turned out to have nothing to do with love.
