I usually get mad at major change from books but I hated the ending of the book and was very happy when they break up and there was still movie run time 😂
Hayes friends in the band were always messing with his relationships! Just listen to what’s said at the pool by Ollie and the girls laugh and then watch him and Simon on the plane-Simon taps Ollie when he sees-Solene come on the plane. Hayes grew up and grew out of that boy band…it’s a good thing in the movie. Ollie and Simon are trouble makers in the movie- immaturity and jealousy going on. -The girls are talking at the pool about how that got rid of some actress that Hayes was dating-lots of trouble and jealousy going on in the boy band-immature trouble makers. Having the Hayes character grow up and go on his own towards the end of the movie was great writing!✍️
To the narrator, Solene’s daughter would not be in college anymore. After 5 years she would have graduated both high school, which would be in one-year, and college, which would be in 4 years. She’s done. That’s why 5 years was Hayes’ timeline for Solene to promise and revisit their relationship.
I read the book got through the first 10 pages went to the end saw how it ended and didn’t finish reading it. I am so glad that they changed the ending in the movie because I wasn’t gonna watch it at all until an author friend of mine said, watch it it has a HEA I absolutely love the music love the chemistry between the actors. The movie was 100 times better than the book that’s probably the first time I’ll ever say that.
They both look so amazing together, i wish they were so in real life. A wise man said: "There's nothing better than a woman with a past and a man with a future".
I am SO mad at Hayes' fans and Sol's daughter omds😭😭 If i was a fan I'd probably hate abit too ngl but STFU, u're not in their relationship arghhh... Sol deserved all the happiness.. both of them did💔
Isn't it amazing how people, strangers with no connection to you what so ever, can rule your life? These teeny bopper girls and ignorant adults who sent her vicious emails are the epitome of jealousy. He is an entertainer, not their man. He owes those people nothing but a good performance, not his life. What they did to Solene and her daughter is incomprehensible. No one knows what goes on behind closed doors nor should it matter. Those pop stars that like to have women all over the place are doing what they choose to do. Hayes was doing what he chose to do and the media tried to destroy it. Did they really think she was going to stop and talk to them at her front door? I would have said something they couldn't print.
Thoughts on this movie : 1) Things could've been shot better at times, the way it was filmed. 2) It's 100% hypocritical for guys to be praised in dating younger women and Women doing the same, to be thought of as Shameful. 🙄 - It's inappropriate whether an Older Man or Woman, to prey on young minors...if they aren't Legal and it's not A Real Relationship happenin'. 3) REAL fans should only focus on the music, not who the artist can/can't date...What they decide to do with their life, It's incredibly Entitled and Selfish to think you can. (I know they Do, like kpop fans, But they shouldn't! ) 4) There's always gonna be people stirring up unpleased comments, always haters...So, you can't try and make them happy and let them affect your choices. Just be a good person for yourself and Live YOUR Life, because they don't matter. 🙌 5) Wish there would have been more scenes with Selenè (?) and Hayes talkin' deep (they had that One scene.) The impact of the first part of the movie LOVED, also like how the daughter knew "Mom's got a life of her own too" and was able to talk to her like A woman goin' through relationship struggle. I liked that, she in return knew how it started affecting her daughter at school and all and broke it off. 6) I think the ending was, underwhelming, they set up the movie so nice 😍 ...With the "Meet- cute". The ending could've been done more impactful with the anticipation. None the less, Glad that they came back to each other after all those years.🤭 7) HANDS DOWN! ✋️ Better relationship than "Anyone But You" 👎 ...Also funny ironically, that they had a bit of an age gap too.
Il vero Amore con la A maiuscola..una bellissima storia...nn esiste la differenza d età quando c è un sentimento così profondo e vero..bellissimo il finale.❤❤
The end of the book is so disappointing. I am a 40+ woman married a much yourger guy and I would said that she has never fought for him. Their situation was so easy to solve.
I thinks that’s what upset me the most about the book, I think if you read the book just read until he texts that his at the door, close the book and watch the movie from that scene on… she was such a coward… they could have figured it out… to me she had in her mind decided that Hayes was going to leave her sooner rather than later and chickened out… he on the other hand was willing to go all the way and figure it out…she was a coward in my eyes.
Yes, because it’s different from the book. Also, sometimes there are hidden messages like the color they are wearing representing whatever where people aren’t able to grasp immediately.
😍How can they move on, after having lived so intensely for a few months. The acting profession is mysterious to me. Anne and Nick are preparing to make another film each on their own. I would have taken a lot more time to recover
Meno male che non è finito come il libro ...che sinceramente non mi è piaciuto proprio per il finale , ancora a scandalizzarsi per la differenza di età nel 2024? Evolviamoci ogni tanto , ed ogni tanto allontaniamoci dai social e viviamocela la vita . Bel film
The problem with the book is the author does the trite hackneyed device of the woman lying and saying “I never loved you”. Anything that relies on a lie to get its message across sucks and is certainly not feminist. The author is an idiot. She hated the ending of the movie. My understanding is that Solene is also unlikable in the book.
I see your point, but every female author does not have to make every female character a feminist icon. Some people suck and still can be made characters. There is no formula, as there was in old Hollywood, That must be followed to give a positive message
So true, the movie is way too better than the book. They made it romantic, sexy but tasteful. I am impressed that they made such beautiful movie from “that” book. I wish I have never read it…..well…… curiosity 🙈
I look like I'm in late 20s early 30s. My friend who's 45 looks like late 20s early 30s and she has older kids. I think a lot of 40 year Olds can look young nowadays and felt this movie was realistic in that aspect.
Il libro è molto bello ,pieno di particolari che ti fanno restare senza respiro ,ci sono molti particolari che per esigenze di copione nn sono stati messi nel film .Ma sicuramente posso dire che preferisco il finale del film ❤
I think that the ending is unrealistic. I don't think this would happen, to wait 5 years to get together and suddenly felt like no time went by. If he was a famous pop artist he would be subjected to new people and experiences all the time or new crushes at his age. He would have moved on, and the mother probably would have encountered new men at art gallery or through friends or be focused on her daughter.
if you truly love someone then it's hard to move on with other people, and they both clearly love each other so much they couldn't be happy with anyone else, hence they reunite.
Solene needed a therapist, not sex. She is unstable though all the story. She had nothing in common with her lover except sex. I dont understand her devastations over the boy - what does she live about him? Is he careful? Is he Smart? He drags her into a long tour just because feels lonely. And SHE ACCEPTS? How about kids, do they want kids? This is such a weak story. Could have worked if made by Adrian Lyne or Playboy sketch. And the ending of the movie? Wow. Lets wait for 5 more years when we definately will loose hormones or ability to have kids (maybe). Then why meet again? You have NO COMMON INTERESTS people) You wasted your time.
Well how many so called healthy relationships do you see out there where if you observe them, you notice they have little in common? Too many if ask me. Too many times it was cause someone was hot, not anything from a common interest standpoint. You see videos of girls asking B/F those dumb what would you do questions which reveal her insecurities ans craziness and yet the guy tolerated her behavior. Im like, if you took her package and placed it on a bigger woman whose not as attractive, would you still want. 9/10 times its a hard no.
@@rhey81 Exactly so. The movie was about sex and "having fun". I dont understand the drama. They never really showed love, passion maybe and nothing more. Dumb ending. After 5 years apart they would have zero chemistry.
I don’t usually reply on UA-cam, but felt compelled to express my thoughts on your post. First, what may have started as “fun” and initial attraction between Solène and Hayes turned into a healthy, mutually respectful, and beautiful relationship. Play ... being playful, sexual play, banter, all of it … is one of the most important aspects of a healthy relationship and determines fulfillment and longevity. The two main characters have that piece of the equation so well with one another! … so much so that it’s almost tangible. The fact that they each waited five years for the other?? That’s not a “sex only” relationship. That’s deep love and understanding. With regard to the “having children” aspect, Solène already has a child, so perhaps Hayes would want a baby - or perhaps not. Either way, there are options for having children. Finally: NO way do hormones go away with a 20-something year old guy and a 45-yr old woman.
@@TheMariaelena19 Beautifully put. Things may not have worked out that way for the author on whose memoirs this movie is based. But the screenwriters managed to get across enough of the characters’ feelings for, chemistry with and enjoyment of each other that it’s very plausible for them to wind up together. Having children isn’t a biological compunction, so who knows if Soléne wants more or Hayes wants any? And, yes, our sex hormones decrease with age because that’s how our bodies work as we slow down, but studies have shown that the sex drive is strongest in women from their late-twenties to forties whereas in men, it’s in their twenties. So actually, Solène and Hayes are pretty sexually compatible agewise.
I absolutely loved this film. What great chemistry between Ann and Nicholas.
The ending of the movie is completely different than the ending of the book so I am thankful that the movie ends the way it does
how does the book ends?
@@leticiafarias6985they don’t end up together at the end of the book
Agree, I cried at the end of the book, so smiling was much nicer
the ending of the movie is so much better

Exactly! You can see that Hayes is mature for being 24
I had a feeling tat the movie showed Hayes uncomfortable with olie

I agree. Now she can say, " Yeah, my gorgeous mom is with the love of her life, f..k off!"
Need a number 2. Definitely

Why did you read the end after only reading 10 pages lol
Finish the book. It's really good.
What is an HEA?
@@xcobyxzeibecause the book is just that bad (finished it today and it's really really really bad)
Haye's last line should have been: Nice watch.
Ohhhh! She should have had the watch on!! They didn’t age her as much as they did him.
Hers should have been nice wedding ring
@@kathyrichards1520 she was wearing his watch in the last scene when they reunited, look carefully
They both look so amazing together, i wish they were so in real life. A wise man said: "There's nothing better than a woman with a past and a man with a future".
"There's nothing better than a woman with a past and a man with a future."
Wow a wonderful wise man ❤
I'm ready for the second movie to come out!!!!!! This is my favorite movie by far!!!!
Will there be a second movie?
Hopefully!! My fingers are crossed!!!@@abigailedet3749
I hope there’s a sequel 🙏
No why would there be?
It would be more feasible to have a second book, bringing them together. What would a second movie bring?
I am SO mad at Hayes' fans and Sol's daughter omds😭😭
If i was a fan I'd probably hate abit too ngl but STFU, u're not in their relationship arghhh... Sol deserved all the happiness.. both of them did💔
Yessss 😭
why on EARTH would you hate izzy
You don’t have kids do you lol
I think Jodie is the cow in this - she dropped them in it through jealousy
I really think there should be a sequel i really ,really do .
The real end of the movie is the song at the credits ❤

Really people need this ending explained? While you're at it explain the back of a cereal box to them too
Yes, because it’s different from the book. Also, sometimes there are hidden messages like the color they are wearing representing whatever where people aren’t able to grasp immediately.
The and is beautiful in the movie, well done ❤❤❤!
Loved the movie great love story finally hope for a second movie
I tell everyone to watch it
Feel good love story
😍How can they move on, after having lived so intensely for a few months. The acting profession is mysterious to me. Anne and Nick are preparing to make another film each on their own. I would have taken a lot more time to recover
Oh l need a second part..l didnt like the ending
It didn’t thrill me either😢
It was better than the book though imo
I think the ending was perfect, it’s clear he’s come back to her and they will resume their relationship!
Some of your facts are incorrect.
Izzy was finished school.
Solène was 39 turning 40. She was not 45 until the end.
I thought he had a wedding ring on the talk show........... wtf?!
Better ending than the book! I'm still mad... YEARS LATER. LOL
Meno male che non è finito come il libro ...che sinceramente non mi è piaciuto proprio per il finale , ancora a scandalizzarsi per la differenza di età nel 2024? Evolviamoci ogni tanto , ed ogni tanto allontaniamoci dai social e viviamocela la vita . Bel film
Without the different ending, you just have a "hook up" that drags on way too long...

It is so amazing and attractive one
Bro Anne Hatheway looks quite young for a 40 year old
40 is young. You'll see when you get there.
@@pegapage9603Sage advice.
She’s 40, not 80
I look like I'm in late 20s early 30s. My friend who's 45 looks like late 20s early 30s and she has older kids. I think a lot of 40 year Olds can look young nowadays and felt this movie was realistic in that aspect.
Also in real life Anne is 41 and he's 29, so pretty accurate in terms of ending ages
Very good movie
Is there a season 2 or nahh?
Precisa explicar? Sério?
Il libro è molto bello ,pieno di particolari che ti fanno restare senza respiro ,ci sono molti particolari che per esigenze di copione nn sono stati messi nel film .Ma sicuramente posso dire che preferisco il finale del film ❤
There is no need for chapter 2. This is a pretty solid ending
