Let’s focus on the plot of the movie first:
1. In order to unfold the plot, ignore the basic logic: what happens when someone with a bit of intelligence finds something? You must first think about when and where you lost it. The method can be to find evidence (photos), ask others, your own memories, etc., and then tell others the basic situation of the thing to make it easier to find. But Sejal, a girl with a normal IQ, has never shown the ring to anyone other than Harry, except for her unreliable memories. If it is a simple style, it is quite unique.
2. The hostess is contradictory and abnormal: Sejal said that she is a lawyer and should be very intelligent and speculative, but the actual situation is simple and naive, stupid and incomprehensible. Is she the only one in the world who lost the ring? A lot of innocence has been taken in vain.
3. The details are not clear: Sejal only said that she got married in Mumbai on November 25, but did not give the detailed location. Well, you are the only one married in Mumbai. As for Harry, every gloomy memory was related to home, but the end didn't explain the real reason for his fear of going home.
If the director Imtiaz Ali can better deal with these issues, it will not affect our deeper understanding of the theme of the film.
Imtiaz Ali is a recognized talent in the Indian film industry. I have only watched his "Rock Star" and "Suddenly Meet You". His description of love is not love at first sight, but gives a reasonable enough reason, focusing on the fit of the soul. And your own growth.
At first glance, Harry and Sejal are really two different people, but after they slowly show their hidden hearts, they are attracted to each other again:
when you first met, you are self-willed and arrogant, I avoid the
hotel, you are a pure virgin, I am a romantic Bastard
Bar, you are ridiculously acting sexy, let us be born into a dead
castle, I try to open my heart, you make me warm the
hotel, I am a little moved a little jealous and overwhelmed at the
cafe, we know each other’s hearts, but don’t want to admit that we
met our ex-girlfriends, You helped me solve the trouble, you are a little jealous, very well
, I am a wandering person on the train, I dare not go home, you shake me and
meet a dancing girl, it turns out that a woman has a more deadly attraction to a
cabaret than sexy , and the moment of separation is fast to, nothing we can do
the beach, you do not belong to me, at least I can still think of you
encounter gangs, could not find the ring, I'm so happy, but you are not happy
hotel, thank you, the original prodigal son also really
long-winded so much, in fact, Harry He was afraid of going home, the opening lyrics had already said very clearly, but he finally defeated the fear. And Sejal also didn't know how to love from the beginning, and grew up to be a true lover.
The film’s overall sense of rhythm is very strong, with layers of advancement, and the seemingly plain plot is set up to reveal the transformation of the two people’s hearts and relationships. Such a delicate depiction is unique in the Bollywood movie that focuses on storytelling.
The theme of the film is "Looking", looking for the original me who is wrapped in a worldly coat, or the back of my character that I don't even know, which is what Harry calls "inner gap", which can help us face it squarely and repair it. Don’t give up once you encounter it.
Harry and Sejal's love was neither complementary nor similar, but inspiring each other's inner self-examination. They are not perfect people, but meeting can make them more perfect.
