Let go for love

First of all, I went to watch this movie for Alan, but Alan doesn't have the charm of the mature and kind classic old man in love. In addition, it took half an hour for the movie to describe Nina’s chaotic life after her husband’s death, and her hysterical crying, so that for the first time, I could not stand the procrastinating rhythm after only 40 minutes. Drag the progress bar directly to the end, and the subtitles just show that Jamie will never come back, and Nina is leaning on the piano at this time, her face is calm.
Before every time I watch a movie, I will first spoil it, understand the story, and then watch it if I am interested. Before watching this movie, my understanding of the story (or guessing is more appropriate) is that after the heroine lost her husband, she met her dead ex-husband (ghost) and another new man, both of which were difficult to part with, but in the end she chose After the latter, I started a new life. This kind of story is nothing appealing, I think, especially when my favorite alan completely disappears in the show. However, after a few days, when I re-watched this movie on a whim, I suddenly realized that my previous judgment was wrong. This movie is more touching than I thought before.
In the story, the ghost ex-husband Jamie temporarily returned to Nina to get out of the great sorrow of the moment and start a new life. When Jamie just came back, he took care of Nina in every possible way, and the two were loving. The bridge where the two lie on the windowsill and watch the clouds is the most romantic and classic scene I have ever seen. Slowly, Jamie started to take ghost friends home. When eight or nine ghosts watched videos in Nina's bedroom, Nina gradually became unbearable. Did Jamie really bring friends to the house because of ghosts and loneliness? I'm afraid it's not that simple. Jamie lived with Nina before his death. He should be very clear about Nina's personality. He knew that Nina didn't like so many ghosts in her house. However, the number of ghosts that Jamie brought home increased from 5 or 6 to 7, 8 and moved from the living room to their bedroom. No normal person can bear all this. Then, the only explanation that makes sense is that Jamie did this deliberately. Only in this way can Nina's affection for him gradually decrease, step out of the painful memories of the past life and start a new life, a normal life.
I read the introduction of Baidu Encyclopedia before. It said that Jamie brought his ghost friend home because of loneliness, but don't forget that when Nina was playing one-legged hop with the magician, Jamie was sitting on the street and playing the cello. Jamie can come out. Ghosts are more free than people (and can disappear at any time), and they will not bring so many ghosts home because of loneliness. Besides, Nina is almost always at night because of the boredom of the ghosts. Nina goes home at night, and Jamie won't be lonely so she has to find a bunch of friends to watch the video.
Jamie, actually planned from the beginning to make Nina fall in love with others and start a new life. The affection at the beginning was to make Nina come out of great grief, and then a series of unbearable things were to make Nina feel a little disgusted with him (this word may be too heavy). When the two of them looked at the cloud, Nina once said "I truly madly deeply love you". Nina loved Jamie deeply. She was trapped in this deep affection and couldn't help herself. Not only did she not lead her own life, but also Unable to accept other men. Jamie knew this, so he did so many unbearable things after Nina returned to normal life. He wanted Nina to see his shortcomings, and the man she loved would also let him She had a lot of unhappiness, so that she could discover the advantages of other people and feel the happiness that the young magician (I really forgot what he was called) brought him. And when Jamie was crying while watching Nina kiss someone else, someone she fell in love with again, Jamie’s tears were sad and even more joyful. He knew that the person he loved had gone out of the predicament and regained Happy, he can leave without worry.
Although Nina and the magician finally came together, I believe that Nina and Jamie are real, crazy, and deeply in love with each other. Only with such a deep love can there be an inextricable pain in them. , In order to let the dead lover come back to his side, and then have the plan to make painstaking arrangements for the lover to start a new life.
For love, Jamie returned to Nina, and for love, he quietly left Nina after finding happiness under his arrangement.
After all, this movie hits the softest part of people's hearts, letting go for love.
