Woody Allen is still as wise as always, always unreasonable, but what I didn't expect is that Love Happens, a film that is glamorous from the title to the cast, is very ordinary and simple. What's more unexpected is that I, such an indulgence, could be touched by such a plain narrative.
In the analogy of a car, Love Happens is like the old Ford minibus that Aniston drove. The gloomy exterior is trivial. The inside and out are so ordinary that there is almost nothing to be praised. Audience If you ride it on the road casually, you will feel hypocritical even asking where to go or why. Fortunately, this film has a cliché ending (note that this is an advantage), but it has become a clear pen, otherwise there will be no focus. Doesn't love need such a destination?
Woody Allen's movie can be the latest Lamborghini or a Beatle from the 50s, but its engine must be meticulous and precise and work tirelessly forever. Various concepts are completely broken up in the carburetor just like gasoline, and the brain is sprayed into the cylinder, and then continuously ignited and exploded, producing a force that is so strong that it makes people dizzy.
The common point of the two films is LOVE, just like different cars have engines, which carry us forward and make us involuntarily. The difference is that the protagonist of Love Happens talks about how to move on from beginning to end, but in the end a common destination is arranged, while the protagonist of Whatever Works emphasizes destiny for a long time, but finally finds that everyone including himself has moved on. .
It can be seen that love is an experience that requires the joint efforts of lovers to complete, and it is best to never complete it forever.
