In "Time and Space Traveler", the male protagonist Tim faces such confusion.
Shy and introverted by nature, he learns that he has the ability to cross from generation to generation, which is a blessing for Tim.
Since then, the troubles of life have become a game of schadenfreude, just go back to the past and modify it.
So the mistakes of the past do not exist, and he has the capital of remorse;
Blunt relationships do not appear, he has the freedom to manipulate;
Even in the face of a half-understanding love, he also has the dashing of practicing back and forth.
However, the ability to cross has changed the performance of the male protagonist, but it has not been able to guide his love, let alone dominate his life.
The dramatic setting of the film reveals the fantasies in our hearts for us, but it does not stop there.
While giving the male protagonist imagination and permission, it also allows the male protagonist to experience many contradictions, which in turn prompts the audience to think together.
Superpowers are added to the film, and the men of the protagonist's family can travel to the past in time and space and change their lives.
But in fact, after watching this movie, I don't feel that it is a superpower movie at all.
No special effects, no time to cross the life after the ups and downs, this superpower will not make you feel cool, some are just a bland life mixed with surprises, pain, sadness, and happiness.
Personally, I still like this superpower processing, which is similar to "Super Runaway" to some extent, focusing on the change of superpowers to the real life of the protagonist.
Back to the point. Unlike American love movies, this movie made in the United Kingdom has a slower pace of love stories.
Even this movie is not limited to the theme of love, it is more like starting from a love story.
And through the superpower of time and space travel, to explore the true meaning of life from a novel perspective.
In this regard, the protagonist's father is a good guide and full of wisdom in life.
In fact, the story told in this movie is very simple: Tim is an ordinary man, and at the age of 21, he is told that the men of his family have superpowers to travel through time and space.
He travels through time to improve the lives of others and to get along better with loved ones and friends.
It wasn't until later that he no longer needed superpowers, because he finally understood the true meaning of life.
But unlike "The Space Traveler's Wife", the core of this film is not time travel and superpowers, but emotional stories.
Although the story similar to ordinary people's lives is simple and even a bit "vulgar", this is precisely the charm of this movie.
After watching this movie, an inexplicably warm and suddenly cheerful emotion lingered in my heart.
It's like I saw myself in Tim's story and learned a lot of life lessons from it.
In the story of "Time traveler", there are no particularly distorted and dark characters.
There is no extreme dilemma, and even dramatic elements such as time travel are used very low-key.
It's a film that glorifies life and tells a warm story that gently eschews the bad parts.
It also accurately captures the subtle and beautiful details of life, which can awaken the touch of life and love in the audience's heart.
Real life is much more difficult than this movie.
But, as screenwriter Richard Curtis put it:
"Indeed, in order to cope with the difficulties and pains I encountered in my life, I wrote a lot of light comedy plots. My job is to make more people feel happy and happy, and to remind them of the beauty of this world. It was worth it. ”
