Reality and fantasy

This is a light comedy

This is a romantic comedy lightly satirizing romantic comedies

The level of laughter and rhythm are both at the upper middle level, right?

But there are two points that are outstanding

The first is the intention

Reality and Dream, Ordinary and Romantic Self and Externality

The heroine was originally an unconfident ordinary person living in reality, but she traveled to a dream world, experienced romance, understood herself, and then returned to reality to become self-confident and self-loving

Even if there is no self-love and self-confidence in the romantic dream world, there is no happiness and success

New York is still so dirty, the room is still so small, but your heart determines your world

Another point is the design of the film’s ending credits

The ending should be the real world in the film, but the sudden music and dance tells the audience that this is still a romantic comedy. The audience needs to return to their own reality.

What I most resonated with was the phrase "New York is dirty again and my apartment is dirty again" The heroine said in a happy and excited voice

Yes, that kind of beautiful home in simple style is for viewing, not for living

I also like my messy doghouse the most. The most commonly used things are on hand.
