Moving to Portland, Oregon and finding work in food service is easy for Paul and Ramona. A struggling musician without bandmates, Paul becomes introverted and moody. Ramona's friend from college introduces her to a new social circle and she goes out while Paul stays home. When Ramona confronts turning thirty, it's time to grow beyond old routines and her relationship with Paul comes to a head.
Paul and Ramona, a young couple in need of a change, move to Portland, Oregon from their hometown of Boise. Upon arriving, they sublet an apartment and begin to familiarize themselves with the city. While finding work is easy (Ramona begins waitressing, while Paul gets a job at a coffee shop), change is difficult. Their life in this new city seems to be on repeat. When their car breaks down and a tandem bicycle becomes their primary means of transportation, Ramona refuses to ride.
A struggling musician, Paul, spends most of his time at home, steadily becoming introverted and moody, while Ramona, at the insistence of a co-worker, is thrust into a new social circle, where she begins an affair with a co-worker. Ramona and Paul’s relationship implodes after she confesses and in the ensuing conflict, she impulsively leaves to stay with a friend. Paul, desperate to work through the pain of the split, befriends a quirky barista named Ali. This friendship gives him a chance to begin to heal and inspires him to focus on expression through his music.
-You're so Pretty!ahhhh//评审团大奖//不如《引见》深入，但更本能、自在，既是一次自反，又给未来两人的创作埋下了伏笔…
慢热，四十分钟才入戏。结尾的彩色太私人了。
现在这部电影和《独自在海边的夜晚》、《出逃的女人》成为我心中洪氏电影前三名，导演真的很爱金敏喜，结尾的彩色部分能感受到这种爱意要溢出来了

手捧着花金敏喜美得心颤！观感很好诶，没之前那些尴尬了哈哈哈
就，还是那样子。3.5 @Berlinale
昔有褒曼捉鸡，今有敏喜拾叶。既是爱的宣言，也是电影创作宣言。
用电影来写情书，把情书拍成电影，我的电影只为你，你的电影只为我，我在电影里对你说出生活的爱，你在电影里回应我生活中的情
『 7.0 字幕结束，小说家的电影和洪的电影都没有结束（那段我爱你的掌镜严重怀疑是洪本人）』
固定镜头，过曝的白，少了直男尬夸就清爽不少。终于Get到寒暄间隙的那种意会，人与人的沟通借由尴尬才有的递进和袒露。
[Berlinale Competition] 第一次大银幕洪尚秀 在搭建的电影-观众默契里找到哪怕是碎片的可笑的自我，好好笑一笑，然后在现实与银幕交界处celebrate/examine love
小说的英文又叫 fiction 小说家的电影中的婚礼大概也是洪常秀与金敏喜的 fictive mariage 穿过镜头交换真心/誓言这一幕堪称电影诞生之初的呢喃（卢米埃尔兄弟）在百年后的回响 虚构中的虚构藏着人所以被感动的奥秘
各种文化人与假文化人与粉丝之间的商业互吹，一个简单的问题：假模假式的文化人自我报团与取暖和其他人对他们的指指点点有任何差别吗？真的少给自己脸上贴金了。知道你护着金敏喜了，知道你小说写不出改拍电影，现在电影也拍不好的样子。说来说去，观众如我为什么要关心呢？
？好有趣的故事 一环扣一环 再来个闭环 影院笑声连连
#2022柏林主竞赛# 看完之后只觉得自己是个小丑。
《引见》《在你面前》《小说家的电影》，说实话连着三部，实在让人产生了审美疲劳，甚至略微有厌烦感。翻来覆去那么几句台词，导演、演员、诗人、制片人、小说家等等等等各路文艺工作者一边走着、站着、坐着、喝着一边商业互吹，“我是你的粉丝，见到你真荣幸”“你的作品实在太有魅力了”“你一定能写出、拍出、演出更好地作品的”balabalabala，真是越听越不是滋味。还好这片子还能看看金敏喜，洪常秀我是看够了。
观众期待有故事情节，这也成了这位导演讽刺鄙视的重点，电影要不断突破带来进步，但这种电影以及想要说的观点却只是突破，没有进步。
坐着聊天站着聊天走着聊天屋里聊天屋外聊天路上聊天地里聊天，最后，为爱黑白变彩色。
因为太典了，所以适合想喊口号的时候。其他真的不愿再说……彻底见识到把电影完全拍成private game会形成怎样的风格。（episode：跟我妈一起看的，没想到她对扯蛋流的接受度意外地特别高/但结尾阵亡于理解这俩人和电影和电影里的电影是什么关系）
三星半。影片绝大多数时间，参照洪常秀以往的创作习惯来讲都是松散的，人与人的相遇，形成闭环，却没有太多精神层面的交战，趣味性更多来自旁观者的反应。而到了影片最后，当你以为这是洪常秀与金敏喜秀恩爱的随便一拍之时，笔锋一转，美好与现实的尴尬处境融在了一起。正如他们所言，“浪费”只是外人自以为而已。
