Look at "Beijing Meets Seattle" again

In fact, originally I did not like to watch this kind of love movie full of urban fashion atmosphere, always thinking, the tiger is suitable for me, but I thought, occasionally Sichuan hot pot is replaced by Jiangnan small dishes is still quite emotional, just look at it again.

At that time, after watching this movie, I always joked that "101 Marriage Proposals" taught Di Si how to get the goddess, and "Beijing Meets Seattle" taught the little three children how to find happiness. Of course this is a joke. But from the plot point of view, it is really the heroine Wen Jiajia, a "little third child" from Beijing, who is forced to come abroad to give birth to a child with pregnancy for the stubborn, romantic love or the unlimited credit card in her heart. In foreign countries, he met Frank, the male protagonist who is nicknamed DB (soft rice eater) and is a driver. And so began the story of the yin and yang.

As far as the plot is concerned, the heroine is a girl who spends money without restraint and uses an unlimited credit card to overdraft her youth and happiness. Many people may not be able to understand whether she has pure love for the man who has never appeared or enjoys the pleasure of consumption; as for the male protagonist, he is a good old man who looks natural and talks softly, and he is "good" enough to struggle with what to wear to his ex-wife's wedding.

However, in fact, the heroine's heart is actually an extremely weak and meticulous girl, a girl who dares to pay for the love she pursues, and a girl who desires happiness and pursues happiness; the male protagonist is a medical expert who has been well-known in China in his career, and his life is a really good man who regards his daughter as a life. One vanity, one blandness. When these two seemingly contradictory individuals meet together, naturally a lot of stories happen.

After watching this movie, many people will think about an age-old question: What is happiness? In the movie, for the previous heroine Wen Jiajia, there may be an unlimited credit card, no worries about material life, and a luxury brand in one hand, which is happiness. For the heroine Wen Jiajia, there may be a loving person around to accompany, someone to care, someone to care, someone to take care of themselves, someone to understand themselves, this is happiness. For the female protagonist Wen Jiajia later, perhaps there are people she loves and people who love herself, have her own children, plain and plain, and have a craft that can support herself, which is happiness. It can be said that this film uses this role to successfully interpret several extreme forms of happiness.

For love, romantic love everyone will yearn, when the love sinus first opened, everyone was looking forward to the so-called romance, but in the end, the prince and princess love can only be a fairy tale legend, the real love is like Wen Jiajia and Frank in the film, in life, the little bit of thought is for each other: Wen Jiajia saved the money for giving birth to the child to the wedding dress, just to let Frank have face at the ex-wife's wedding, even if she scolded the uncle in her mouth for being cheap; Frank in order to protect Wen Jiajia gave birth, Three days and three nights in front of the hospital bed, not even changing clothes, but also gave the daughter's living expenses to this woman... Often people's unconscious actions are the true thoughts of the heart, and that kind of conspiracy and then move, all because there are other choices, and the previous considerations are just calculating gains and losses.

At the end of the film, the two of them naturally responded to the foreshadowing in front of them, stood together again at the top of the Empire State Building, and will always walk shoulder to shoulder. When Louis Armstrong, the "king of jazz", sang "What a wonderful world" with his melodious and thick voice, the film, which can be called aesthetic, ended with a soft sigh in the heart. I don't know what is contained in this sigh, is it a lament that the two finally have a lover and finally become a family member? Are you lamenting that happiness should not stop at glitz but with blandness? Or am I still thinking about how I define the concept of happiness when I am confronted with luxury?

In addition, the soundtrack of this movie is really good, romantic and somewhat jumpy, it can easily make people jump in the clouds, and at the end, let people slowly fall from the sky to feel down-to-earth and heavy. The whole mood follows the music through the movie, romantic, frivolous, peaceful, and reassuring.

Finally, end with a sentence that is regarded as a classic: "He is the best man in the world, he may not take me to a yacht and eat French food, but he can run a few streets for me every morning to buy my favorite soy milk and fritters." 」 "In my heart, this is life, this is romance, this is love.
