The story takes place in the 1930s. Bob, an ignorant young man, went to Hollywood to join his uncle Phil, who became famous there. Uncle arranged for secretary Vanni to bring Bob to familiarize himself with the environment, a lovely, charming and talkative girl. Bob is quickly attracted to Vanni, but Vanni informs him that he already has a boyfriend, and what Bob doesn't know is that this girl is actually his uncle's underground lover. One day, Vanni found Bob heartbroken and told him that he was with a married man, and that man couldn't leave his son. Together. Good luck makes people, when the two decided to get married, Vanni's ex-boyfriend decided and wanted to leave. Vanni finally chose Phil, and the frustrated Bob returned to his hometown to manage a nightclub with Geben. Shuiqi, Bob also met his current son, Vini Roca, and they conceived a daughter together. Suddenly one day, Uncle Phil and Vanni showed up at their nightclub and met again after many years, disrupting everything. The life order of Vani has the same enthusiasm and beauty as Bob, two young people from other places, swimming in this Hollywood full of artificial beauty. Retain each other's innocence that cannot be told to others. It's not hard to see that for Bob, Vanni is the first love he really loves. I don't know how much first love is in a man's heart. I also had a first love that I couldn't ask for. Everything at that time was beautiful in my eyes. Everything is excellent, and I'm willing to ignore everything else for that sparkle. And now I have three months left to get married. Not long ago, a mutual friend revealed that my first love was still inquiring about me. After I heard about it, I actually had no trouble in my heart, even the kind that girls would have. There is no coursing or vanity, and there is a lot of ambiguous involvement in the ambiguity of no status, and the longer the time is slowly separated, the more things I have experienced, the more calm I can be calm. Now that we have gone our separate ways, he only wants to contact me when he comes home during the holidays, but for me, I am no longer the one who is there when he thinks of me and disappears when he is busy. As far as I am concerned, he is just a little memory in my life. Now there is no regret, no unwillingness or if. We should not add too much drama to ourselves, life is a little sweet, a little bitter, a little helpless and depressed. We may all become what we don't like, and the one who changes with us will go further.

    #supplement3.5 Woody Allen made another film of the radio era, the difference is that this time it is not too distracting - beautiful characters, exquisite scenery, in the fast-moving narrative rhythm without breathing, there are still only kind The feeling of staying on the surface. The era in "Nothing" was personally experienced by Woody Allen. Although it was poor, turbulent, and full of quarrels, it was plated with gold of memories; this golden era is more of an imagination, illusory in the air

    #19th SIFF# Who did TMD say that this film is rushing to the street... The premiere evaluation is generally probably because the plot of the film is rather loose, and it has a jazz structure, which can be regarded as plot-oriented [years of voice]. It's a story of one's own NTR, and it is a coincidence of information asymmetry. The Tale of Two Cities in New York and Hollywood does not end with the big reversal that the audience expected, but it brings a kind of helplessness that "life is a comedy, but the playwright is a sadist".
