The Lake House

It's been a long time since I had such an experience, turning off the lights and watching a movie in its entirety, and then crying silently to the subtitle music.
There is nothing surprising about the plot, and we can count several of the re-enacted versions. Perhaps the Persuasion mentioned in the same film is exactly the loneliness and waiting in our hearts.


Life can be over in a second. A man was killed in front of me. He dead in my arms. And I thought, all the people who love him waiting at home , who will never see him again. And then I thought, what If there is no one? What idf you live your whole life and no one is waiting?
This passage seems to express the inescapable fate that entangles us. It's not sad, but it's worth crying over. Because of this, when I found the book under the floor that Alex recovered for him, and when I heard that Alex died in a car accident two years ago, I couldn't help it.
The fan was blowing my freshly washed hair, as if people were standing by the lake, looking at the glass house on the lakeshore. In this film, the wind is a very important element, just like "Love Letter", the wind blows the leaves, the stationery, and the hair, and a long story is connected. Gradually accept and even love such a scene.
Keanu Reeves is so handsome, do all the films he starred in make me put on the list? Such a man, with a clean and bright face, a slightly melancholy and pure eyes, a gentle and low voice, like the mountain wind blowing from the distant mountains, it is easy to wrap you in. By the way, the mountain wind blowing in the distant mountains is exactly what his name means, and he's one quarter Chinese. Speaking to a classmate, seeing him playing Alex was about to be hit and killed, I immediately cried. Hehe, that's what I said.

The Lake House quotes

  • Alex: [after he saw her at the subway station in 2004] I don't know if you remember but, we saw each other. That is, I saw you. You never told me... how beautiful you were.

    Kate: Well, maybe you saw someone else. That was a bad hair year for me.

    Alex: Long brown hair, gentle unguarded eyes...

    Kate: OK, OK. You saw me. But I still don't know what you look like.

  • Kate: It was you. Why didn't you tell me?

    Alex: You would've thought I was crazy or drunk. Or both.
