The Age of Adaline
The story about the ships beneath San Francisco is true. Hundreds of ships were abandoned by hopeful gold miners. One fellow set up a salvage company, hauling some of them ashore and leaving some afloat to be used as storage units, boarding houses and even a jail and a church. The city needed to expand its acreage so that they could expand the harbor so they sold water lots. People would take an abandoned boat, scuttle it, and then claim the lot. To keep it they had to fill in the water by dumping rock, sand, and dirt. As it settled, much of it served to support the ships and many of the hulls were preserved largely intact. Decades later as underground utilities were being installed the ships were discovered. So far they have found some 500 of them. Much of downtown San Francisco was built on top of them,,When she is pulled over near the beginning of the film, her driver's permit as a ZIP code on it, even though she was born in 1908 and the cop says she's 45, making it 1953.

Her eternal beauty and eternal life becomes a curse, and she has to severe ties with people around her to avoid suspicion. She's at a difficult crossroad when he encounters a striking man.

"The Age of Adaline" is such a beautiful film. I thought it would be a boring clichéd film, but I was completely blown away by it. Adaline is a beautiful woman who is elegant, knowledgeable and radiates a classic quality. I haven't noticed much about Blake Lively before, but I'm very impressed by the classic elegance she radiates.

The plot is very touching. It brings tears to my eyes many times. I was particularly touched by the scene about Adaline's dog in the vet's office. What the vet said is very relevant to life itself, framing a difficult situation very positively while breaking a terribly sad news. Meeting Harrison Ford for the first time is also a very powerful scene. On fact there are so many emotional and breathtaking scenes that "The Age of Adaline" literally captured my heart. I loved it.,
