小編從很久以前就養成一個習慣，每天起床第一件事情，就是拿著牙刷擠上牙膏，坐定好在電視機前，打開新聞，慢慢刷牙耗個20分鐘，那會得知這部片，全是因為這部片廣告打很大，整天在電視前閃個不停，小編決定要去一看究竟。號稱年度大片，由一整群超Golden的明星聯手演出，並已獲得金球獎多項提名。果然不是蓋的，真的很不錯看，之前就有跟你們分享過，小編很喜歡Jennifer Lawrence，這次她演出一個潑婦母老虎，小編真的覺得她很有種不知何來的風味。
以下是執導這部片子的導演說過的名言，與大家分享一下:
The hardest thing in life to learn is which bridge to cross and which to burn.
人生中最難的事情就是知道要過哪一座橋，並且燒掉哪一座。
Life to me is a journey - you never know what may be your next destination.
人生對我來說是個旅程，你永不會知道你下一個目的地是哪裡。
