About the special symbol in this film - bicycle

Mountain bikes and road bikes often appear in the first half of the film, and they are always placed in conspicuous positions, which makes me wonder if there is a special meaning, and then I found a subtle change when I saw the end of the film, as shown in the following picture:

a car

01:40:14

Two cars, the location has also changed

01:40:44

back to a car

01:40:55

The above three pictures are in line with the story line of this film. The male and female protagonists are divided first and then reunited, and the final ending is still "divided". Then look back at the previous shot (flashback of this film): This is the shot of Emma riding the grocery cart before the accident.

This is the picture of Emma going to save Dexter.

With Ian (1996):

00:46:10

Started living together with Ian (1995):

00:41:30

On a date with Ian (1994):

00:41:14

a passerby.

00:03:20

This is invisible rot? I take it.

00:03:11

The chronological numbers roll with the sound of a bicycle hub.

00:01:29

To sum up, from the placement of the bicycles, we can see that the male and female protagonists are divided and combined.

In my humble opinion, any resemblance is purely coincidental.
