Chapter 220 Better than the Original

Although the new version of "Four Weddings and a Funeral" had changed a lot in terms of plot compared to the original version in Adrian's memory, Mike Newell still captured the two main highlights of the story.

The first was the omnipresent British humor, which, although possibly affecting the impact when delivered with a deadpan expression and serious tone, was definitely going to provoke belly laughs from the audience upon reflection. The second was the '90s youth's attitude towards marriage, which older people always regarded as sacred, but to the youth of that time, was merely a ceremony.

Newell skillfully utilized the three weddings and one funeral, as well as the contrast between Julia's conservative character Kelly and Dennis's liberal Charles. He both affirmed the significance of marriage and perfectly expressed this viewpoint, coupled with interesting humor, it was still an outstanding romantic comedy.
