剧情简介
年轻的女孩Brett Eisenberg是一名兢兢业业的副编辑,抱着厚厚一叠书稿一边用铅笔涂涂改改一边穿梭于繁忙的街头,她有着一个美好的家庭,家人们都宠爱着她,这让她心思单纯却显得犹豫不定,她还有一个比她更不成熟的男友Jed,Jed抛下她一个人独自去了欧洲“寻找自我”。
一天Brett在参加一名作者的签名售书现场时结识了编辑界的奇迹——Archie Knox。Archie曾是Brett姑姑的男友,离了两次婚,曾有着成打的女朋友,作为一个父亲,他是失败的,但作为一个男人,他是成功且有魅力的。Archie看上了Brett的率真与惊人的记忆力,于是向Brett进行了追求,一面是Jed的不成熟,一面是Archie的权势与爱护,Brett最终成了Archie的女友,并与Archie同居。
在这期间,Brett换了上司,是个高傲的美女,她对Brett百般刁难,因为她也曾是Archie的女友;Archie与女友的关系愈来愈糟,他开始与Brett争吵并又开始酗酒;Brett得知她的父亲患了癌症,不久即将离开人世……一连串的打击使Brett不知该如何是好,她自暴自弃,却被上司赶去与一名著名作家签写合同,在事情快要变得一塌糊涂时,Archie匆匆赶来救援。
Archie与Brett重归于好,“好像回到了旧时”,Archie去见了Brett的父母,Brett的弟弟问她:“难道你找不到同龄人做伴么?”Brett无言以对。Archie离开不久后,便因急性胰腺炎进了医院,Brett匆匆赶去看望,随后她的父亲便去世了。
经历了这些以后,Brett从一名女孩成长为一名女人了。所以,面对Archie的求婚,她很平静地拒绝,很平静地离开。此后,她丢弃了使她犹豫不定的铅笔,水蓝色的钢笔果断地修改着一个个句子;她所编辑的小说,被摆在了书店橱窗最显眼的位置;她将长发盘起,穿起了那条很潮的裤子,自信满满地去参加鸡尾酒会。她成长了。
这是一部电影,关于一个女孩子的成长。
电影中的插曲都非常动听。前半部分,是轻松愉快的调调,充满着爱与信任,属于典型的美国风格;后半部分,则是忧伤但明亮的小曲,哀而不伤,让人看得到希望的曙光,如Speeding Cars、Cold Hearts等;而到了片尾曲,则有回到了开始的曼哈顿愉快的调子。电影的对白更是值得人慢慢品味,没有些文学知识的人大约是没办法体会那种幽默的,真是非常非常的遗憾,而那些关于成长,关于爱的对白,更是堪称经典。这部电影,不但关于爱情,更与亲情息息相关,的确,爱情不会是我们生命的全部,我们还有同样可贵的家人,我们还有自己。
