If the rails hadn't been frozen, Alf wouldn't have fallen in love with her, and she wouldn't have seen Tristan again.
If Susan had met Tristan a little later, they might have been together.
But it turned out not to be the case. God is like a prank, letting fate keep playing with Susan. I think she must have had an epiphany suddenly, to go to death with such a rejection in her eyes.
Because of the same woman, because of the same temperament, I always look at this film from Susan's point of view. I followed her shyly and smiled, followed her into love, followed her deeply helpless, followed her in despair. I could feel almost every emotion in her. In the end, however, I still felt that she didn't have to die. Because fate is so impermanent, there are too many people who face tricks and hold down their regrets, regrets, and pains in their hearts, but in the end they can sigh and continue to live.
Isn't that what life is like? The person he loves the most, he can't live with him forever. The most suitable person, but there is no way to invest in such a passionate love. Those memories that they knew they should let go of, just ran out and tortured them over and over again. Tristan said he cursed God. Yes, who doesn't curse? For most of the world, fate seems to be playing one bad joke after another.
Therefore, most of them have learned to compromise and laugh at themselves. In those nights when people silently recalled the torture, they would also recite the old saying of "taking pity on the person in front of me" to persuade the beating heart in the depths.
However, Susan did not do so in the end. She once said: forever is too long. But she still couldn't let herself give up. There are always some people like this in this world, maybe their numbers are getting fewer and fewer, but there will always be. Paranoid, repressed, entangled in the past... a person with a temperament.
