Record your feelings and feelings after watching the movie.
Overall a lighthearted movie, with some heart-wrenching draws and a knowing smile most of the time. Of course, we can also glimpse the appearance of Western culture, the enthusiastic Barcelona style, the international student dormitory, the Erasmus European Intercontinental Student Exchange Program, which are all new and interesting to us.
As foreign language students, we need to gain a deeper understanding of the language we are learning and the culture it carries. The professional teacher recommended this movie just to let us know about the Erasmus project and the problems that will arise during the study abroad period. What impressed me most was Xavier's emotional entanglement. This entanglement is about love and desire: on the one hand, after studying abroad, he and his girlfriend Martine became a long-distance relationship. At first, they were very affectionate, counting their fingers to live through the days, and it was inseparable when they met occasionally, and then they quarreled. Misunderstandings and complaints followed, and the relationship gradually faded and broken. On the other hand, before he broke up with his girlfriend, Xavier fell in love with his friend's wife Anne-Sophie, or let Anne-Sophie indulge in his teasing and temptation . There are also friendships and family relationships: on the one hand, he adapted to the life of studying abroad in Spain, getting along with new friends, and enjoying a new life; on the other hand, he did not want to go home, and it was rare to see his mother once, but he rushed towards her because of his anxiety. Fire up. All of this made me uneasy. If my boyfriend and I are separated in the future because of school or work, can we maintain communication and understanding, can we resist temptation, can we persevere: if I live away from my parents, how should I handle family relations, etc. The movie reminded me of the existence of problems, and it is necessary to plan ahead.
In addition, I think the ending is a bit abrupt. How can the male protagonist be able to chase his dreams after returning from studying abroad. Although I can understand this change and understand what the movie wants to convey, it is too jumpy and doesn't quite fit in with the previous rhythm and plot. However, I found the sequel "Russian Doll" to this film, which tells the story of the encounter of these young people entering society. It is precisely to answer the doubts in the audience's heart, and it must be supplemented when there is a chance.
