Chapter 364 364 The Magic of Love

After the premiere of "Sleepless in Seattle", the expressions of the reporters were very strange. There was a feeling of Huanglian spreading in their mouths, but they had to smile. Bad opinion posted.

This is not just one person's attitude. Except for the "Los Angeles Times" and "US Weekly", all the comments about "Sleepless in Seattle" are one-sided wailing, and even Columbia Pictures itself seems to lack confidence. , it was only fully released in 1,600 theaters, not to mention the size of the 2,500 theaters of "Jurassic Park", and even the "Naughty Adam" released in the same period. not on.

But after the premiere of the movie, the reporters who came to the scene had to admit that this movie was much better than they thought. Could it be because I didn't have much expectations before, so I was pleasantly surprised after the movie was released. Did it hit? After careful consideration, I came to a negative answer, "Sleepless in Seattle" is indeed a very good love movie, perhaps the philosophy contained in it is not as good as "When Harry Met Sally", but the interpretation of love But worthy of praise.

This fact makes the reporters seem very frustrated. Although they can speak ill of conscience and complain that "Sleepless in Seattle" is a bad movie, as a professional film magazine, they must be authoritative and impartial. attitude to attract more readers. They must be professional.

What's more, it is not unfamiliar to journalists to change their previous views. After all, before the movie is released, all the journalists can do is speculate from the subject matter and introduction. The real comment still has to wait for the movie to be released. .

Therefore, after the premiere, the first batch of film reviews became intriguing, making the major newspapers and magazines very lively.

"Hollywood Reporter", the most professional magazine in the industry, made a professional comment on the movie "Sleepless in Seattle" for the first time.

"Seattle is a city full of dreams. For many people, the nine months of drizzle in the city made people feel uncomfortable, but equally, the thrilling green in the rain and fog was equally impressive. Indulge in it. In this city, there are emerging technology companies Microsoft, Starbucks coffee that is gradually prospering, and Boeing airplanes that have opened up a blue sky, but I believe that after today, the city will add another nostalgic sight. Business card, that's 'Sleepless in Seattle'.

It's a dreamlike tale of a mere radio show that ties the cities of Seattle and Baltimore together. From the beginning to the end of the film, Sam and Annie only meet in real sense twice. Once Annie came to Seattle in the name of a report and saw Sam greet her friend. She mistakenly thought it was Sam's new girlfriend and gave up this time. When they met, the two just said 'hello' to each other; the second time was at the end of the movie, when the two met on the roof of the Empire State Building.

Even now, it is hard to imagine that a love movie with almost no intersection between the hero and heroine can appear, and it is even more difficult to imagine that such an incredible movie is better than watching some dew that seems like glue. The love movie of bone love and love is even more beautiful, and it is more than one grade higher. Such romance, we haven't seen it in a long time since 'When Harry Met Sally'.

The so-called romance itself should be unpretentious, just the tacit understanding between gestures and gestures, as if two people on the east and west sides of the United States uttered the word 'magic' in unison, they have been naturally attracted by it. Pulled by this magical power, before we even realize it, director Ephron joined hands with two actors Lancaster and Ryan to penetrate this romance into our thoughts. The highest state of love is probably That's it.

If there is such a person, you have never seen, never met, and never knew, but he is the one destined, are you willing to believe his existence? Would you like to believe that he is waiting for you somewhere on this earth?

This is the 'destiny' and 'destiny' that Ephron has always emphasized in the movie. This is probably the most special and magical part of love. In 'Sleepless in Seattle', Ephron brought this to the fore. The ultimate, let two people who have no intersection at all 'meet' through an interview on the radio. Sam firmly believes that after his wife leaves, he will never find a person who has the same heart as his wife. , Annie decided to move towards a stable and stable life with her fiancé. It was like two parallel lines, there was no point of intersection at all, but they were held together by a radio wave.

As said in the movie, when you see him for the first time and say the first word, you know that person may be your life partner. Love at first sight is probably the love that countless people dream of, full of passion and chemical effects, incredible and unbelievable, not because it is too ideal to be unreal, but because it is too beautiful and too short-lived to make people feel Covetousness is even more extravagant, and more importantly, in most cases, the pressure of real life makes it impossible for us to enjoy it.

This is also the place where the movie makes people linger. We will forget the cruelty and horror of real life, and fulfill many unsatisfactory regrets. Therefore, when we have a happy ending at the end of the story, we will regain the courage to pursue the belongings. Even if our own love is not as romantic, beautiful and earth-shattering as in the movie, at least we can hold on to hope.

Such a story, whether in reality or in fairy tales, is incredible, almost no one believes that such a story can be successful, even in the movie world that turned dinosaurs into reality, it still makes people feel question. However, Ephron used delicate psychological changes to make all this more convincing, making the audience involuntarily indulge in the storyline, empathizing with the changes of the plot, and looking forward to the hero and heroine being able to have lovers and get married happy ending.

Maybe, this is a story that becomes absurd when measured by reason; maybe, this is a story that becomes ridiculous when judged by reality; maybe, this is a story that becomes very ridiculous when compared with life A pale story; but on the other hand, perhaps, this is a story that becomes beautiful when it is longed for with love.

Magic, this is the truth of love that Ephron hopes to tell us through the movie. As long as we are willing to believe, love has infinite possibilities. At the same time, this also makes the movie break away from the ordinary love movie and become the one that can be compared with 'When Harry Met Sally'. ' or a masterpiece on par with such classics as 'Jinyumeng'. "

The Hollywood Reporter, who wrote the review under the headline "From 'Golden Jade Alliance' But Better Than 'Golden Jade Alliance' Love," sang the praises of "Sleepless in Seattle," apparently believing it to be a movie full of countless Fantastic film, but not absurd, a masterpiece that makes people applaud.

Before the movie was released, the industry insiders were most worried that such a story was too unreliable and unconvincing to convince the audience, let alone make the audience pay for it. So there is a one-sided questioning. But The Hollywood Reporter said "no" to such concerns, expressing their support for the film with a firm stance.

Similar comments can also be seen in the "New York Times", the media from the East Coast has been lukewarm about Hugo's performance before this, even in the "Righteous Sea Heroes" period is not too enthusiastic. But this time, "Sleepless in Seattle"'s depiction of Baltimore and New York seems to connect Sam and Annie while also connecting the East Coast and the West Coast, so that the New York Times also sent the film to Positive reviews.

"Has anyone ever thought about what love is? Is love just being with your lover every day? Is love as important as breathing? Maybe one day you suddenly find that love is like suffocation, and you lose the foundation of survival. , then do you suddenly realize that your love has been so absurd over the years, or that you have finally found a life partner. After watching the movie 'Sleepless in Seattle', maybe Can find some answers.

The setting of the protagonist of the movie is intriguing.

Maybe love really happens between strangers who don't know each other, maybe the partner who has been with you all the time is not the one destined for love, have you found your true love? After asking yourself softly, everyone will get a different answer.

Some people say that love is a wonderful thing. It may not be possible to have love after spending ten years together, but at that moment of ten thousandth of a second, a love will suddenly come. At this time, we will start to be overwhelmed, we will start Looking for answers to questions, our minds are full of that person, and we unconsciously start looking for anything about him. This is the magic of love.

Therefore, there is no answer to the question about love, because everyone's love is different, and this is the most wonderful thing about love. 'Sleepless in Seattle' tells us this.

This is a wonderful movie. The plot and soundtrack have a moonlight-like romance. Lancaster's confession on the radio at the beginning of the movie touched the hearts of countless listeners and audiences. This is true love. A woman's heart is a poem that a man can never read. Maybe a man can never read it, but at least he should be willing to take the time to read it, otherwise love can only keep missing and missing.

This is a classic romantic love movie, which is filled with emotion in the warmth, and full of hope in the loss. After watching the movie, we can't help but calm down and start thinking, maybe our love is not as beautiful and moving as the movie, but at least we should try to see, like Sam, like Annie, if you are not willing to try, Who knows what our end will be?

Love is amazing. This is the biggest charm of 'Sleepless in Seattle'! "
