The first four episodes were watched last year with the ex. He lacked interest and reluctantly watched a few episodes with me. At the end of the first episode, the concierge said to the heroine "I was never looking at the man. I was looking at your eyes." I couldn't help crying immediately. He was taken aback by the side and couldn't understand why I was so excited.
I didn't explain it to him, I just got emotional. I understand the incompatibility between us and his reluctance. I know in my heart that he will leave at any time because of a better choice. If he can see it, then in addition to the full liking, there is uncertainty and distrust in my eyes. I just don't want to give up voluntarily, I thought it would be hard to find someone I like. Looking back now, if I don't like me, I will never feel suitable. No matter how much I try to make changes for him, he will feel inappropriate. And I like only this kind of people, not him. Just leave the one who doesn't like me and look for the next one with hope.
I didn't like the second episode very much, but it was a good fairy tale. But in fact, most of the important people in life can't be found if they are lost. All we can do is try our best not to regret it, and learn to accept it.
The third episode is so sad. Anne Hathaway did a great job and was happy that she had gained a friend from her former superior. She will definitely come out.
The husband in the fourth episode is very cute. In the early stage, he was confused and cute, which made people hate it. The problem was solved through communication and understanding, and the marriage after the relationship was repaired was enviable. Only with a lot of love and tolerance for each other can we overcome these difficulties and restore the old one.
The actor Sofia Boutella of the fifth episode liked it very much, and the role suits her very well. She is cool and handsome, and there are stars in her eyes when she smiles. It matches well with the nerd male protagonist's honey juice. And sunbathing and eating breakfast outdoors are too romantic and I love it! Only had time to experience it once, sigh.
The seventh episode is so sweet and moving, the look of an imagined gay couple. I was very moved by the final delivery room conversation and loved the story. But I still don't want children at all. But I'd probably be happy to play with the little ones at my friend's house, as long as they're not too annoying.
The last episode is really good, I hope I still have the courage and luck to pursue it when I am old, till death do us part.
All in all, it's a sultry romance (I don't know what I'm talking about) that is completely ungrounded and very small bourgeois New York's upper-middle-class elitist narcissism.
The men and women in the play have almost no financial, visa and living problems. They live in apartments or condos with loft floors and high-style industrial-style decoration. Most of them are engaged in elite occupations with high income (many young characters are in IT Company work), there may really be no material dissatisfaction, and you can enjoy the pain and beauty of love. Love or not love is pretty much the only thing to consider, because their objects are also on the same economic level.
Also be sure to do enough articles on racial diversity and political correctness. A black-and-white gay couple's adoption story full of politically correct love, a true love legend between an Indian IT upstart and a young white woman, an interesting night between a North African female Internet celebrity and a white nerd brother, an Asian old man and a white old woman's touching evening love... …No matter what kind of racial mix, all the characters speak authentic American colloquialism, the words are elegant and precise, not vulgar, even the foreign concierge with an accent is always well-dressed; Miss Homeless, who is wandering on the road, is clean and tidy. Like the spokesperson for anti-capitalist hippie clothing, even her dog is well-groomed and healthy; the single woman who makes the decision to have a daughter doesn't seem to have any financial pressure...
Certainly some people's lives are like this, but for those of us who have to worry about rent and visas every day and have no love, such a story is as unreal and beautiful as a fairy tale. The great thing about this show is that even though it is so far away from our lives, it can still arouse a strong resonance in me and cause me to think about my intimacy.
Maybe the joys and sorrows of human beings are not the same, but the stories about love are always similar, the difference is that it is purer or more realistic.
