      My Best Friend's Wedding: Life has never been Perfect

      What fascinated me most about the film were these two scenes.

      In the afternoon of the scorching sun in New York, the two of them looked at each other tacitly on the deck. You walk, I follow. In the end, when the fearless completely rushed to the heart, the moment it popped out, the shadow of the bridge passed by, and your eyes fell instantly, and all the courage that was put together was shrouded in the loss. When I nearly drowned in a loss like suffocation that I...

      never look back

      I thought this movie was an absolute romantic comedy (romcom) before I watch it, I still thought so when I was half way through it. But at the end, when Julianne didn't end up with her love and best friend Michael, I felt so different from after watching a romcom. I felt a little sad.


      The movie is indeed very funny, especially when George showed up to help Julianne, I laughed as if I was crazy. But as the movie went on I started to sense that Michael may not choose Julianne in...

      Alternative thinking...

      The subject matter of the 94-year-old film is still a bit moving from today's point of view. It's just that at that time, it was still agreed that "if we are still single at 28, we will get married", and now we should raise the age to 35. 28 years old? They are still children, with no foundation.

          In fact, what I want to say is not this, what I want to say is culture. In the film, a group of people sit in the restaurant and sing opera clips, which infects the whole restaurant and...

      i want you to be happy

      I like this woman with a big mouth and long legs. Not just pretty and sexy, I love her smart. I don't know how many times I've watched this movie, but I cry every time. I have a bad habit of seeing comedy as tragedy.
      What does it mean to know someone for nine years? It means that you have become my habit, accustomed to you being there, in a short distance, accustomed to being able to find you at any time, accustomed to being placed in an important position by you, until one day, I am told...

      In my opinion, love is not a cheap reason, so I really hated the heroine at the beginning. Fortunately, the screenwriter has a rational story. It seems that I really like the movies of this era. They are all so faint and warm music. Some flashes sound at the right time. Bright lines do not pretend to be simple...

    Behind the scenes gags

    1. The film originally had another ending. Julian played by Julia and Michael played by Dermot were finally together, but after testing, the audience did not like this ending, so the director shot the final ending.
    2. In the original ending, after Michael and Kimberly played by Cameron left, Julianne met another man (played by John Corbet). Audience tests showed that everyone wanted to see Rupert's George more, so I changed to a new...

    Evaluation action

    The most touching part of the film is the wisdom and courage that Julianne resolutely chose to give up after competing hopelessly. The comedic talents of Roberts and Cameron always refresh you when you feel a little tired. The only thing that makes people intolerable is that Ding Jianhua's dubbing is old and contrived, no matter which character she matches, she can't forget to put her own label. (Sina Online Review)
