Regarding why it was called seven pounds, I didn't go to Baidu beforehand, but at the end, I suddenly remembered the Venice of Shakespeare Merchant, a pound of meat for that merchant. . . . It seems that he understands the intentions of the director and the screenwriter, and
Lao Wei really takes another step forward like an old showman. Compared with films like National Superman, I like the themes like "Knock When Happiness" and "Seven Pounds".
"When Happiness Comes Knocking" happened to go to the cinema at this time last year. The love and tenacity, unyielding and kindness of the little people in the film made me feel grateful and wrote a blog (see the archive in January 2008) , that film will make people feel warm even in the cold winter.
The style of "Seven Pounds" is not the same. There have been more than two people told me that the movie was rubbish before....Additionally, there is also a film review from the little Vincent who was happily on Scorpio GAAP: Fortunately, I insisted on watching it. You can imagine how boring and slow this film is.
I feel that I only found the main line that the director and Lao Wei wanted to express after more than 50 minutes of the film. Either the film was too boring or my English listening ability was deteriorating, hehe. Anyway, let's talk about this movie seriously. The rhythm of the story is a bit wordy, but the plot is moving, or the protagonist's behavior is as shocking as the spirits.
When you are deeply loved, when you are deeply loved, when you lose the person you love deeply because of one of your own small faults, and at the same time take the lives of 6 other people, how will you face your life in the future? I also asked myself, but couldn't answer at all, maybe I don't have the confidence like the TIM for doing so. So the seemingly unreliable plot of this story is still plausible.
The film's male protagonist Gong lost his beloved wife and 6 other people in a car accident due to driving and sending text messages. In the later days, he was in pain, and he could not start a new life normally. In the end, he ended his own life, but before committing suicide, he decided to Helping 7 people, one is his biological brother, the others are 6 strangers who have never met, and 6 ordinary people who need help. Then donate his 7 organs to them after his death, as a kind of atonement, a dedication and a relief, this is the purpose of 7 pounds.
You don't realize that other people are following you. . . . .
Among these 6 people, the beautiful girl Emily suffers from congenital heart failure and would not live more than 2 months without a donor. Due to the special blood type, it is difficult for Emily to wait for a suitable donor, and TIM just meets this condition. In the contact with Emily and observation of her, TIM and Emily fell in love, TIM must not realize that he can still fall in love with others after the death of his wife, this is also the power of love, love makes him want to go to heaven , love also makes him want to give. . . . The more you fall in love with Emily, the more painful TIM is. If you don't continue to implement his plan, Emily's life will only be 6 weeks, but if you implement this plan, TIM's life will come to an end.
But finally, on a rainy night, after TIM and Emily's brief but magical lingering, TIM decided "It's the Time!", and he called his best friend: hey, it's me. It's the time. I love you! What came from the other end of the phone was a small voiceless cry.
When TIM was admitted to the hospital, Emily also received a call from the hospital: the donor was found and she could have surgery immediately.
On this side of the operating room is Emily's beautiful eyes glittering with hope for the future, that hope is full of her love for TIM, and on the other side of the operating room is TIM's heart that has just stopped.
TIM's life is over, he must have been forgiven by his wife in heaven, and the 7 people who were helped by TIM in the world are living tenaciously for the miracle of life. Each of their lives must be dazzling stars in the universe. In other words, TIM never left, because his life continued and his love continued.
Love a person with a heart, love the whole world with a heart!
Personally speaking, Seven Pounds is a great movie!
Bravo to Will Smith and his team!
