The main line of the film should be the hero Harvey, who encounters love with the heroine while attending his daughter's wedding. The reason for the last chance is that at the dinner party before the end of the wedding, Harvey fought for his voice and dignity as a father, and expressed his guilt and love for his daughter. The second is that after many years of empty windows, he encounters a woman who makes his heart move, and he resolutely gives up returning to China and stays for her.
Harvey said emotionally in his wedding speech that divorce hurts his daughter the most, and what is most regrettable is that he is busy with his career and fails to fulfill his father's responsibilities (so that the daughter has to walk to the church with her stepfather who is nurturing). Although in the film, a warm embrace (compared to the rigid limbs of the first meeting) and a more enthusiastic disco dance are used to show the deep affection for fusion. But for the daughter who has been handed over to his son-in-law, he can't make up for the regret of missing. This is also the deep-seated reason why he worked hard to pursue after he missed the flight and developed a favorable impression of the heroine who he met and almost missed. Because of Harvey, I can no longer let go of the love that is in hand.
Hearing that his daughter was going to take his stepfather's hand into the church, his main purpose of traveling across the ocean was suddenly defeated. He pretended to be relaxed, kissed his daughter, and left with a smile. "Don't want to put pressure on her" - this is the best choice for being considerate of others.
The camera turns to the male protagonist waiting for her outside the classroom. Behind the tall reeds, the sun shines from the side, reflecting a golden light. Through the classroom glass, he saw the heroine stand up with a natural smile on her face - she really looks like someone who has fallen in love! This scene is arguably the most memorable moment in the entire film for me.
The male and female protagonists are all alone and lonely. One is that the heroine feels out of place in a bar where friends gather together happily, and hides in the bar toilet alone and weeps. The other is that after applauding to celebrate the wedding vows, the actor always feels like an outsider, turning away lonely in the festive crowd. It seems that the feeling of alienation and the inferiority of being excluded still dominates him.
At the beginning of the wedding disco ball, the heroine's usual alienation, inferiority complex, and feeling of being left out reappeared. The romantic feelings of the musician Harvey suddenly erupted at this time, and a piano confided his tenderness, making the heroine stay voluntarily. In fact, the way to resolve feelings of loneliness and loneliness is to use heart and love. It suddenly occurred to me, why can't I express myself in my own way, arranging an album for someone I love?
When the power went out and climbed the stairs, the hero had a heart problem and got into the ambulance. Our bodies are not as good as we think they can be so tirelessly exhausted. You are by no means the master of your body. So please take care of yourself as you would your lover.
To borrow Zhou Xingxing's classic "Do you need a reason to love someone? Do you need it? Don't you need it?" - You need a reason, because you need to describe to the other party, family, and friends what attracts you, and where the good others do not have. There is no need for a reason, because it may only be his smile, eyes, and hair color that tug at your emotional chords and that he falls in love with it and is willing to devote himself to it, which is the best conclusion.
Harvey's last chance - why not call it the 45-year-old's self-confidence journey, or the woman at her daughter's wedding? Anyway, I won't watch this movie again. In what I call classic films that are worth watching again and again. Different times will naturally have different feelings. When I'm emotionally low, I refuse to watch romance movies because I can't draw energy from them. All I need is the laughter of comedy, the cruelty of war movies, and I'm glad I don't have to be tortured by human nature. After closing the computer and the smoke stopped, you can feel the little flame of love in your heart again. ——This is the same as the first time the male protagonist witnessed how the carrion was buried, and he went home and longed for a crazy body caress with his wife.
Three stars are given because the acting skills of the male and female protagonists are really hot, as if they were performed by real people. But only three stars, because the director's rhythm is too slow. Not only want to explain the family, but also want to leave a foreshadowing of the development of love. Two points become two weaknesses.
If this is a signal from God, then I have received it :) I will do my best and try my best to chase you :)
