Tim lives in a cozy seaside town in England with his parents, uncles and sisters. Drinking tea by the sea, reading, watching movies, watching movies on weekends, and having a New Year's party feels like the perfect life I've been looking forward to. After his slightly embarrassing and flustered 21st New Years, his father told him that all the men in the family knew how to time travel, and that was fantastic, right? Soon Tim was trying to get back to the New Year's party, avoid spilling drinks on people, and kiss the girl he had a crush on. I thought it would be great to be able to go back to the past and change the future. Tim's dad said that using time-travel too much is not necessarily a good thing, and their family never thought of using it to gain money or power. When Tim tried to change the attitude of the blonde beauty who came to vacation to him, he found that time-travel It's really impossible to make someone who doesn't love you fall in love with you. Then Tim came to London to work as a lawyer. When he went to a mysterious dark blind date party with his colleagues, he met Mary, a girl from the United States who was a magazine editor in the United Kingdom. I think it's really good for a couple of men and women to communicate in the dark. China's blind date organizations can refer to it.
After developing a good relationship with each other, Tim and his colleagues were waiting outside, and Mary left him a phone number. That night was really beautiful. Mary was actually not very beautiful, and she even looked ugly wearing glasses in the art gallery, but she belonged to a girl who was ugly and comfortable to get along with. Tim's beautiful love affair was about to begin, but when he returned to the rented apartment, he found his father's writer friend, who is also his current landlord, drinking in a very depressed mood. He put all his effort into a play that could have been successful, but it was messed up because the actors forgot their lines. Tim used time travel to remind the actors to remember the lines without thinking too much. He went to the backstage of the curtain to help the actors remember the lines with the prompt board, and finally the performance won It worked, but when he tried to contact Mary, she found that her phone number was gone, and when you travel through time to change some things, other things change too. Tim only remembered that Mary liked the works of a certain artist, so he went to the art gallery to wait and see, but after seeing Mary again, it was very embarrassing and strange because they didn't know each other, and Mary already knew other boyfriends at this time. Tim asks when and where they met, then travels back, takes Mary away from the party they don't like, finds a place to eat and chats about their interests and work, then the two walk to Mary's apartment, and then it's sex Well, but Tim avoided the first embarrassment and tension by traveling through time and space. I actually always thought that maybe it was because he "behaved well" that Mary developed a long-term relationship later. Otherwise, in the open European and American countries, this kind of dating is not the same as love and marriage.
Then they met Mary's American parents embarrassedly. This time Tim didn't use time travel to change anything, but then after a certain drama performance, he occasionally saw the girl he had a crush on at first, and failed to strike up a conversation several times. Afterwards, it was a chance encounter on the road that made him have a pleasant dinner with his first love, but when the blonde beauty hinted that he regretted rejecting him at that time and took him to his room, fortunately Tim managed it and immediately Running home to propose to Mary, of course, it took a few crossings. I still remember Tim's favorite Italian music playing in the church on their wedding day. Mary walked in from outside the church door. Mary was cute and beautiful at that time. There was a big storm that day, and everyone was blown away by the wind and rain. Unable to stand, at the outdoor wedding scene on the top of the seaside, the wind blew away the awning, and the cake and champagne spilled all over the place, but Tim asked Mary if she regretted getting married today, she said it was okay, she felt the wedding was very happy. There will be many, many imperfections in life, but even if you can travel through time and space, it is impossible to change all the imperfections, so sometimes it is not a big deal, and a good attitude is more important.
When Tim wanted to change his sister's marriage and life, he discovered that time travel cannot be done after a baby is born, because the baby is born from the combination of a specific sperm and an egg at a specific time. This may also be to say goodbye to his father forever. Do the foreshadowing. He and his wife are guarding his sister who was in a car accident, waiting for her to get better, not just physically, but really want to live a good life, get rid of his drinking problem, break up with his current boyfriend, and try to date a reliable person Men, if you don't quit your job at will, her life will slowly get better, not only by going back to the past to solve the problem, as long as you want to change, there are still many opportunities. Then his father got cancer, birth, old age, sickness and death must be experienced in life, but it is really not easy to bear. When his father died, he was not so sad, because he could travel through time and space to meet his father, but when Mary proposed to have another child, he understood that life could not always be continued by traveling through time and space, so he traveled back to meet his father. My father played table tennis, went back to his childhood, went to the beach with his father for a walk, then said goodbye to him forever and went on with his life.
What I remember most is that his father taught him the value of using time travel, which is what I think is the most valuable use. That is, when the day is over, re-travel back and spend the day with a positive, sunny and optimistic attitude. You will find that this day is very exciting, and you will find a lot of missed beauty. When the trivial work in the company and the criticism from the boss can be treated with a positive attitude, you will find the beautiful girls walking by, you will notice the beautiful smiles of others, you will notice the beautiful scenery on the road, you You will notice the beautiful carvings in the solemn and tense courtroom, and you will enjoy the joy of progress and success even more. When in the end, you no longer use time-travel and can feel these beautiful things, you will understand the true meaning of life.
So this is not a sci-fi movie at all, not even a romance movie, it tells us how to enjoy the good life.
