A Beautiful Life • 不再让你孤单

7/10, a simple story but with good casting.

A late night movie, no popcorns, no other audience, just me alone facing the computer screen. Everything is so quiet, in slow motion, just like the movie. The story starting with a HongKong pretty lady making a living alone at Beijing, her boyfriend was cheating on her and alcohol was her way of problem-solving/escaping. She is lonely but she is somehow lucky, she met this honest and simple-minded guy, who always appear to her whenever she needs him. However, life is never easy to them, the good guy is sick, he starting to forget some little thing, he can no longer work as a police which used to be his pride, and he still has to take care his brother. He's no longer the one she could rely on and now she gonna proves him her determination to walk this way with him. Sounds like a typical romance story? To me it wasn't romantic at all cause there are too much realities they need to face, but it doesn't really matter, cause these two lonely hearts have found themselves a companion, to walk this long journey together, that's the thing matter the most.

It's not those kind of movie will make you cry like hell, my tears just dropped few times, and few drops per time. The review for this movie wasn't good enough, so don't expect too much (from the preview), but i think both main characters are really remarkable and make this a good movie.

p/s: I find the chinese movie title is more appropriate than the english one. Just like him impliedly promises her, will never let her be alone, or vice versa.

And this song is exactly the movie.
