Very good ending, the heroine still realized her wish and understood what she wanted, but Paris is no...

      GIRLS. NEVER SAY...

      Girls, don't say it's a man who ruined you, it's true that you don't ruin yourself.
      Who doesn't like beautiful things, Paris, concerts, art, fine restaurants... Life itself is boring, if you want to run away, prepare yourself.
      Run away, yeah, just run away. Take a break from the tedium for a while and look at life's other possibilities.
      What is life?
      Life is your snoring mom and dad, your breakfast, your exam papers, and your sleepy morning class.
      how are they? Maybe...

      If feelings can be controlled

      Once upon a time, I also fantasized that if anyone could take me to Stockholm in three years, I would marry him. As for why it is three years, the reason is very simple. After three years, I can go by myself, without relying on the financial support of my parents, and without anyone taking me. Then why do I still have this dream? Because I'm in a hurry, I'm always too eager to get what I can't get for the time being. Just like Jenny in the movie, in fact, she can enjoy everything the uncle gave...

      There are no shortcuts in life

      In a society of rules, it is difficult for people who do not obey the rules to have the opportunity to practice. It will only teach you a painful lesson, and at the same time, it will also give you a small victory.

              Adolescent men and women are vain, and begin to have self-esteem and pursue a little material enjoyment, while older men can satisfy both of these very well. She fell in...

      Exquisite and beautiful photography combined with a story with reversal, in 100 minutes, it is like taking the audience to complete a long journey of eyes and soul. The British elegance and the glamorous life of "high society" have slightly washed away the embarrassing lies and helplessness in the film, and at the same time they have set off the innocence, ignorance and trance of a flower girl. There is nothing wrong with a mature man, and it is he who has opened a girl's horizons. The ending...
