The last romantic movie

I write film reviews many times, hoping that someone will put my writing on the top. But not this time. I still remember clearly when I was young, I watched the director's "Three Ninjas" when I was asleep in middle school, and the warmth that touched me with them, and it also made me understand why romantic comedies can be made in Hollywood. The staple food product is derived from the unremitting pursuit of expressing kindness and sincerity in human emotions-we simply call it love-whether it happens between men and women, friends or family.

If one understands romance, one knows that this expression is an ideal, full of hope and confidence in something that is difficult to obtain in real life. When the film author uses words, music and pictures to make you feel soft and fragile in your heart, you are living in the gap between the cruelty of reality and the hope for ideals-that 0.1 second is moving. People who understand romance are not afraid to give hope.

"Crazy Stupid Love" written by the film's screenwriter is also well aware of this kind of moving-that is, as human beings, we coexist in our hearts two equally real and legal desires-to sacrifice ourselves for ourselves and for love.

Is it for myself not to be refused to cover up my feelings, or to express it bravely;
Is it to satisfy my sexual desire to betray my spouse, or to keep the promise to share life with my spouse;
Is it to protect a child, a friend, or believe that they can be independent choose.

If a work of art is to choose between right and wrong, good and evil, it lacks thinking about life. The choice of characters in romantic films is a difficult proposition. If you don’t believe it, there are countless failed romantic romance films, even though they came from excellent directors, such as Hall Pass, such as Yes Man, such as "The Chinese Partner". Feel, tell you how creative you can express loving another person.

But this film did it. I have no way of knowing what a 60-year friendship is like, nor can I know what an elderly wife will allow her husband to find a new love one night stand. But I felt that these characters were in the incredibly difficult choices, and told me an audience that loving others is naturally reasonable for them to become a necessity in their own lives. Kevin Kline said my most convincing love story of 2013, and he didn’t say to the topless girl in front of me: "after 40 years of marriage, if I can't tell her something wonderful that happens to me , it sort of stops being wonderful. "

OMG. As a screenwriter, I kneel to the uncle. This is the charm of language. On the one hand, he affirmed that it would be too good to have a shot with beautiful women, while regretting that such a beautiful thing cannot be shared with the person I love and my partner for 40 years, then this beautiful Doesn't exist anymore.

The same plot, the same scene in Hall Pass, even how many clothes the girl takes off. But it is the lack of this to turn the concept of "love others" into a simple sentence:
I love her (too vulgar, don't use it) = I always tell my wife if something wonderful happens (泪奔). The director taught me that "love" is a verb. Find that verb. You can find the key to impress the audience. This verb is not something that is easy to do like "Chinese Partners": I love him = I buy him a lab that once rejected him, but it should be difficult to do small things, for example, = I listen to what he wants to say even though he is not saying it. But for Chen Kexin, he is the only Chinese-speaking director who can make a genre film comparable to Hollywood.

    The movie itself is worth two stars, the cliché in the cliché, the basic level of money; but the performances and sparks of the four veteran dishes are still a bit interesting, and the whole can barely be seen.
