Love is sometimes crazy, and this story reviews in many ways that madness.
Island of Hawaii; Hery Roth works in an aquarium of marine species and has no lasting relationship with any girl. He just has fun making tourists believe that he is too, and he just wants one night's fun. Until she meets Lucy, a beautiful and charming young woman with whom she has a particular encounter in a cafeteria she visited daily, where they talked for a long time and even discovered that Lucy loves fishy smelly hands, she he brings childhood memories when his father arrived from long journeys on the high seas. Both delighted, say goodbye.
In a next meeting, Henry makes jokes about the smell of his hands. While Lucy just looks at him somewhat strangely and as if she didn't know him; This baffles him. At that time, the owner of the restaurant and friend of Lucy's mother, takes him elsewhere and explains the situation: Lucy had a car accident a couple of years ago, as a result of the blows she only has a short-term memory , every night it is as if his brain was washed and the next morning it was the same day before the accident and he thinks that it is always October 13, 2002. That is why Lucy does the same thing every day: visit the same site to her breakfast, watch the same movie, prepare the same pineapple cake, paint (since she is an art teacher), among others.... Everything exactly the same.
To this whole story, Henry replies: what kind of story is this? It sounds like crazy stories that I would tell girls to not see them anymore ... Am I the crazy girl? (Loving this part, Adam Sandler is a great actor)
Sue, just tell the truth. Then Henry wants to confirm it and talks to the doctor who attended Lucy and her family, in this case the father and brother. Out of doubt, and despite that he feels that Lucy deserves to have to fall in love every day... But, Lucy's relatives do not think the same because they imagine that only harm will be done, they consider that she cannot lead with a love relationship like an ordinary person and ask Henry not to approach her. He does not want to depart and halfway from the restaurant to the house, he always invents some ruse to stumble a few words with Lucy. Lucy's father discovers him and asks him to see him at home to talk to him; where he tells her that Lucy is happier when she sees him and that although she can't remember him, it seems that Lucy's subconscious did.
That makes Henry very happy. So they try together to have a relationship as common as possible, they just had to fall in love daily ... And so, the story of the film goes: A love that is renewed daily due to the sequel to a disease.
Important scenes from the movie:
Lucy on the way home in her jeep. But, Henry always invents something to see him. On this occasion, he tells his friend Ula to make him look like a kidnapped and beaten subject. However, Lucy goes crazy and ends up attacking Ula with a besibol bat. This part is funny, I've really seen this movie about 7 times and I'm always dying of laughter in these minutes.
Lucy loves Henry, asks her to stay with her that night. The next morning, wake up scared and bewildered with a stranger in bed. Zaasss ..! He hits a good blow. Then he finds out that they both go out together and maintain a stable relationship.
Henry in the company of Ula and Lucy's friends, makes a video addressed to Lucy explaining the situation of her memory loss, to show her every day and in this way make Lucy aware of what happened. The first time Lucy sees him, he only cries and cries inconsolably, but Henry (always appearing) brings him a smile telling him that the cow he tried to dodge and caused the accident was still a cow! and also had to be reminded that it was a cow.
Lucy's break with Henry. She keeps a diary where she records her moments of the day, so she could read them later, but there comes a day when she doesn't want Henry to have that great weight to fall in love with him every day. So he decides to end the relationship.
Henry's song for Lucy. How cute, to die of love with this song that despite not being a good singer reflects a beautiful feeling. In this scene, the lighting game was beautiful.
Lucy, ends up going to a retirement site with people who have similar characteristics to her, as far as memory loss is concerned. I just didn't want to be a burden to anyone else, I just wanted everyone to continue a normal life. So, she dedicates herself to teaching people to the retreat, but strangely she dreams of Henry every night, and draws it. In a funny way, many paintings are of a man with an oval head or an "egg" shape; allusive to those of his love (Henry). What a coincidence!
Mega Spoiler Alert:
- Final moment of the film, where Lucy wakes up in the middle of the Arctic. Watch the video and realize that you have a beautiful girl with Henry. In the boat is up to Lucy's dad, beautiful ending.
My opinion:
A film with a funny story and at the same time unravels a beautiful love. That someone has the ability to fall in love with another every day, is something wonderful. Holy brain of who wrote the story of the film ...! In addition, that the story has landscapes full of color, one of the most memorable places in the film is the aquarium where Henry worked. It really is a beautiful love story that you can see quietly in your partner's lap, laughing is safe!
