The Chinese translation is "perfect perfection".
The 138-minute movie went on slowly.
Mr.Melvin is a best-selling author who lives alone, with some neuroticism, stubborn behavior, and especially acerbic speech.
He wasn't handsome at all, and he lacked the poise of a well-mannered gentleman.
But he's eccentrically real and full of personality.
To close the door five times, to switch the lights five times; to remove a new bar of soap every time you wash your hands; to only go to a specific place to eat in a specific restaurant, as long as a specific waiter serves you and only uses your own plastic cutlery
... A neurotic male writer, passionately in love with a single mother who struggles to raise her ailing son.
The gay supporting character who was always looking for inspiration for painting and was unfortunately robbed and injured by a group of gangsters was also interesting.
The curly-haired puppy he regards as a baby adds a lot to the film. The little guy is very smart and cute, haha.
Oh, do you have such an awkwardness with yourself? What you think in your heart is not on the same line as your uncontrolled behavior.
At first, the male writer didn't even realize that he fell in love with her, he just used to go to the restaurant every day to see her and ask her to order and serve him.
It wasn't until the male writer was furiously angry because he was jealous of gay men that he faced up to his feelings for her little by little.
He is a mean-spirited person who does good deeds secretly without saying a word, cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
She is a single mother who has worked so hard for her son for many years that she ignores her own feelings and dares not let go of her.
He was so different from her.
However, for each other, it is the only perfect fit.
He and she often have misunderstandings and quarrels, just like life is.
In fact, we all have our own quirks and cynicism, more or less.
It's just that most of us know how to hide those oddities, and are willing to sacrifice a little of ourselves to cater to the public's aesthetics and values.
So, everyone in this movie, I really think they are cute.
If everyone could make less unnecessary cover-ups, would they be able to live a happier life?
Impressive dialogue is better.
I hate pills, very dangerous thing, pills.
I am using the word hate here about pills, pills.
My compliment is that that night when you come over and told me that you would never...you know about it (she said she will never sleep with him)
My compliment to you is from next morning I started taking pills.
Lots of interesting conversations.
Female admirer: How did you write so thoroughly about women?
Male writer: From a man's point of view, there are reasons not to consider responsibility.
Gay men encourage male writers to go to the heroine that night to confess: You must go now, your biggest advantage is that you are not afraid of anything shameful at all.
When the male writer invited the female protagonist, "Let's go out for a walk", the female protagonist smiled and shook his head and declined: "It's four o'clock in the morning." The
male writer replied, "Then let us give ourselves a reason, such as ...well, the bakery on the corner is opening soon, so we're just two people who love hot bagels."
I absolutely love this lovely episode.
So the male writer mustered up the courage to express himself on the deserted street.
After Barabara spoke for a while, the hostess shook her head slightly in confusion: "I don't quite get that is compliment for me." She said.
The male writer nervously gathered words again, and finally said the final confession of "You made me wanna to be a better man."
Tears welled up in her eyes, admitting it was the best compliment she'd ever heard in her life.
For him, in this world, only he knows that she is the best woman in the world.
The reverse is also true, right?
In the end, the male writer and the female protagonist hugged each other on the street in the early morning, and when they left each other, they happened to meet the yellow light of the bakery's business.
He opened the door for her, she smiled in front of the steaming bagel, and he watched her from the glass door with an expression of unparalleled happiness.
A near-perfect ending.
Jumping out of the movie, I think, in real life, should we also drop the arrogance of what we have and do not have, put aside those so-called identities, and create a reason to give each other and ourselves opportunities.
Some people may say, "I wonder if you don't love me because I'm not good enough."
But I think we should always believe that we deserve the best.
