This time, Netflix launched the movie “Through My Window” on the eve of Valentine’s Day. Through a story beyond our imagination, it brings the audience the courage to pursue love and overcome the crisis caused by love.
I often hear people say: “The most beautiful thing about love is before it begins.”
Compared to the ups and downs of secretly staring at the object of our love, or in the ambiguous stage, two people are bound to face many challenges that have never been imagined before as the relationship progresses to the next step.
In “Through My Window”, the heroine Raquel, played by the up-and-coming Spanish actor Clara Galle, is an innocent high school girl who has been secretly in love with a neighbor boy named Ares since she was a child.
But even so, Raquel didn’t have the courage to speak to Ares, and she only dared to keep an eye on his daily life and posts on social media.
In addition to Raquel’s shy nature, the fundamental reason is that there is a huge gap between them in terms of life circle or growth background.
“Through My Window” stars Ares, a handsome rich kid, played by Julio Peña, who also made his film debut.
Ares’s family runs one of the largest companies in Spain. Not only is his family wealthy, but he also excels in school.
Ares is about to go to Stanford University in the United States to study business management. After graduation, Ares will come back to inherit the family business.
Therefore, compared with the ordinary heroine Raquel, although the two live next door, they are in a completely different world.
It’s just that the gap between the male and female protagonists of “Through My Window” was broken because of the “wireless network”.
This story is kind of funny.
One day, Ares cracked the Wi-Fi network of the heroine Raquel’s house in order to use the Internet. As a result, he not only found that Raquel used the name “Ares” as the Wifi password, but also secretly stored many photos of him and fangirl articles in the computer.
And this day’s big secret also changed the relationship between the two of them.
Just looking at the title of “Through My Window” on Netflix, I believe that all viewers will think that this should be a “Love, Rosie” type, describing the hero and heroine who were originally just friends, because some events collided sparks, and finally love. On each other’s pure love movie.
But “Through My Window” appears to be filled with pink bubbles, but it’s not pure at all.
Just like the American movie “Fifty Shades of Grey” released in 2015, it sparked a discussion on a scale relatively rare for the general audience at the time, and this time “Through My Window” is the same.
With the theme of “Raquel, a pure-hearted girl in high school, was discovered by Ares, a handsome neighbor who lives next door, but he is a “overbearing president” with rich emotional experience’ as the theme, so that the whole movie “Through My Window” is compared to the love between men and women, Rather, it is a physical relationship developed out of love.
Therefore, when the two have yet to confirm each other’s intentions, and Raquel is suspicious of the relationship but unable to resist the psychological desire, “Through My Window” will be called the Spanish teen version of “Fifty Shades of Grey” for no reason.
It’s just that apart from those CEO scenes, the most interesting part of the movie is the interaction and confrontation between the two.
Although Ares used Raquel’s love to do a lot of scumbag-like “transgressions”, as Raquel’s charm and self-awareness gradually emerged, the roles of the two began to reverse.
As he gradually got used to Raquel’s company by his side, after Ares deliberately expressed alienation from Raquel, he also began to care about the girl’s inner feelings, who didn’t take his feelings seriously.
Ares decides not to take his relationship with Raquel seriously, as he originally thought was a fairy couple who ended up cheating on each other’s parents.
Among them, whether Ares took Raquel to a party organized by the company, or wanted to give up studying in Stanford, USA, and went to work in a fast food restaurant where the heroine worked, it all showed the changes that Ares, a rich boy, made because of love. .
However, even so, is there really a way for this love that they think will go a long way?
Overall, “Through My Window” combines the domineering president drama of “Fifty Shades of Grey” with campus love, albeit with a lot less “game” under the constraints of the style scale.
However, the “naked” gimmick played by the director by borrowing the title has also become a new look for the “Through My Window” type of works full of love and fantasy.
Perhaps many of the plot developments in “Through My Window” are eye-opening. But Gua doesn’t need to take it seriously, I believe that the beauty of Clara Galle and Julio Pena also brings a lot of entertainment to the audience.
