At first I thought it was a romantic movie with JEAN as the protagonist; I saw that in the middle, HOLLY's series of adventurous behaviors of deceiving her mother because she was tired of moving house attracted my attention unknowingly, so I thought it might be a family member A family film that cares about each other; however, after HOLLY confessed his naive plan to JEAN and admitted his mistakes, the anxiety that has been hidden in the whole film is finally clearly manifested. This film has been trying hard to want The thought embodied is probably: In life, when encountering difficulties, escape is not the way. To bravely meet the challenge and solve it properly is the real bravery (adventure).
So, when ADM gave the comics she created to Holly who blamed herself, although I didn’t understand why she had such a positive reaction to the painting, one thing I could feel was that she always rushed to move. HOLLY, who has no time to seriously talk about a relationship, feels afraid; she is probably afraid of the arrival of unfamiliar feelings, so, like JEAN, she chose to escape and they are moving again; however, the person who proposed this time is not JEAN , But HOLLY.
This is a very ironic situation. In the beginning, HOLLY made up the story of BEN to encourage JEAN to stop moving. When the facts were revealed, the strong JEAN had not mentioned the move, but HOLLY could not bear it because of a series of unfamiliar sufferings. , She almost angrily said to JEAN: You have moved so many times for yourself, can't you move for me once? !
What a wonderful contrast! HOLLY, who racked his brains and didn't want to move, became the one who proposed to move when he encountered difficulties? What's the matter? Heredity, uh, the term used here is broad. She has been from JEAN since she was a child. What will JEAN do when she is frustrated? Escape, move. Although HOLLY, who moved passively, was disgusted with this, when she encountered difficulties herself, she couldn't think of a better solution, so naturally, she planned to repeat her mother's method-escape and move.
I feel that when the film is played here, a little bit of philosophical flavor is beginning to emerge: in the face of moving, the comparison of the attitudes of the mother and daughter before and after, makes this film sublime from a simple romance or family movie, but I don’t know. How to define this film, I don’t know if the philosophical film is appropriate, haha
Then, JEAN moves house every time his feelings are frustrated, which is an embarrassment that he dare not face after avoiding failure; HOLLY also intends to do so. They call moving to a strange place as an "adventure", but in fact they are just evading. The problem is because they dare not face the real adventure-life.
In the end, JEAN must have realized this in her daughter's words and DAM's cartoons. She emailed DAM in her daughter's voice, and what she discussed in the email was the influence and choice of her daughter's mother on her daughter.
This is the finishing touch. It gives JEAN a chance to re-examine herself from another person’s perspective. She used to avoid it because she couldn’t see herself clearly and didn’t dare to face difficulties. “I don’t know the true face of Lushan She is only in this mountain.” So when she used her daughter’s identity to discuss herself with her daughter’s peers, the mystery was revealed at once. It turns out that her weakness lies in escape, and her self-reliance is strong and Taking risks has to a large extent affected their children's attitude towards life!
It is estimated that this kind of cognition has a great impact on JEAN, so at the last moment, JEAN changed. She gave up the decision to move and had an in-depth conversation with HOLLY, who was planning to start her first escape journey. They Finally decided to stay there, solve the difficulties, live in the place they all like, and start their real adventure.
I like this film. It narrates the philosophy of life in a tender vein, the sadness of single mothers, the enthusiasm of adolescent children, the meticulous care of life tastes of men and women who love life, and the brave face when difficulties arise. Right courage... Life is an adventure. The shortness of parents is the inevitable exam. People can't avoid these exams all the time. Failing is not ashamed. No one is a generalist in life. It is impossible to take one at all. Percent, the most important thing is to enter the examination room with confidence and energy

The Perfect Man quotes

  • Jean Hamilton: Unfortunately, honey pie, new people are only new for a day. After that, they're just people. Who'll excite you, disappoint you, scare you a little bit. And boy do I know how tempting it is to run away when that happens. It's good for avoiding things. But the problem is that you end up avoiding yourself. Avoiding people you love. You end up avoiding life. So I've decided to start setting an example for you girls. I'm going to try showing you what sticking it out looks like. Really get to know people. And let people get to know us. I don't promise to be any good at it, but I will try. Because I want you and Zoe to be better at this than I am. I want you to learn how to let people in.
