The combination of Qiu Litao and Li Min, one director and one editor, has been released in a row for three different types of movies in the past few months. The first are "The Humbling Expert" and "Insomnia". The relay is Qiu Litao's less frequent love sketch "Forgiveness" "He 77 Times", co-starred by Charlene Choi and Pak Ho Chau, a couple hovering on the verge of breaking up. The movie is not about selling sugar-coated love, and it is realistically shot with surprises.
Realistic Love
"Forgive him 77 times" opens with a relatively silent couple dinner "Shall wetalk". In a quiet morning without rain, Adam (played by Zhou Baihao) received a breakup message from Eva (played by Charlene Choi). The 10-year relationship ended. Adam was puzzled by this "no warning" breakup. He drank his sorrows and caught up with Mandy (played by Wei Shiya) who had a crush on him and lived together; Mandy accidentally discovered that Eva stayed behind "Forgive him 77 times" notebook, it turns out that she set a limit of 77 forgiveness for this unbreakable relationship. Reading her records, she reproduced the couple's quarreling episodes. Life trivial matters, such as being late for watching the show, forgetting each other’s dietary preferences, a crisis of trust in traveling to find a way, and personality conflicts involving the growth background of both parties, etc. The film truthfully presents the friction between couples dating and dragging together. It is not difficult for the audience to find sympathy. Girls think Especially in the middle.
When forgiveness becomes a habit, the title of
has reflected that this film tells the story from a female perspective. Eva consciously keeps hurting, but her young boyfriend doesn’t care about it. Repeated mistakes. When forgiveness has become a habit, how to end the cycle of heartbreak and forgiveness ? Choosing to forgive after being injured comes from love. If you fall into a situation that repeats itself, whether it is due to lack of introspection on one side or too high demands on the other, the relationship can no longer move in the direction where 1+1 is equal to or greater than 2. When love is exhausted, it also erodes each other. How can we find the salvation for both sides between lover and self? "Forgive" borrows from a marginal relationship, reorganizes the chaotic thoughts through forgiving notes, reflects on the pain that can be endured, and the endurance varies from person to person. Whether it is leaving or staying, the most important thing is to find it in the lost Make a choice for the life you want by yourself. The character design of
is thoughtful. The
movie is adapted from the novel of the same name by Li Min. The character design is meticulous and thoughtful. Eva and Adam are about the same age. Eva is an independent solicitor who has dealt with many divorce cases. She is unconsciously judging witnesses when looking at her boyfriend. She tends to be merciless when she sees her mother being dumb and tolerant in the marriage relationship. Expressing dissatisfaction to her boyfriend face to face, as well as his love (also a tribute) to Ozu Yasujiro and "Tokyo Monogatari", and even a cautious attitude towards marriage; Adam was born in a richer family, has a bad relationship with his father, is haughty and cynical, To pave the ground for the inconsistency of the pace of the two parties, the film neither deliberately amplifies women’s anxiety about age or being single, nor does it make the man a century-old man.
Charlene Choi and Zhou Bohao co-star as a couple for the first time. This fresh combination is very sparkling, and there is a tacit understanding in the performance; Wei Shiya's acting skills are getting better, and there are not many dramas, but she can perform role levels, which shows Qiu Litao's ability to control actors. Although this film does not take the romantic route, but there is no shortage of jokes. Playing the supporting roles of Adam and Eva's good sisters to the dead and the dead, and the "riding" model C, make the video more entertaining. Finally, as usual, the actor turned the tide and apologized to the big dragon and phoenix. Adam made a declaration of love under his Chinese name "Zhang Zhisi", which matched the wedding scene, which was quite interesting. It is worth mentioning that a mysterious guest actor appeared to open a way out of the dilemma.
