live elsewhere

At 2 o'clock in the morning the day before yesterday, Yinhe recommended this movie to me, and then I remembered this movie that I always wanted to see but didn't watch.

In addition to handsome men and beautiful women, the plot is more charming. Dazzling ending. Under Carlisle's note, Jubele drove all the way. On the way, he continued to talk with his father's ashes. He cried, laughed, made him scream, and finally showed himself, not the "substitute" he used to be.

No very Tailai. Jubile meets a wonderful stewardess in the midst of another series of life destructions. She was determined to confide in him on the flight in the early morning, and she cleverly left him on the phone and drew a beautiful map card, (strangely, the heroine of "Loveless Love" is also called Carlisle, and she is so enthusiastic and active girl) and even she was generous on the phone with him all night, which is really what happened in the first 24 hours of their acquaintance. Unconventional, bold and careful love bridges are very warm. If you can only choose between "love" and "tacit understanding", I only choose "tacit understanding". Faye Wong once sang "Only Love Stranger", but it is only now that I understand it. It just so happens that this movie also illustrates this truth again. Please imagine that a complete stranger already knows where you came from just because he took a serious look at you. How wonderful.

They gently touched their foreheads in the middle of the night, reluctant to kiss them. Carlisle said to him before: I know you and I are the same, we all have psychic abilities. Jubele then gave up his self-defense and talked about a series of his experiences. Carlisle looked at him and said silently: So what, you don't feel that you have always been a substitute for someone else's life.

Yes, the life we ​​are currently living is not necessarily the life we ​​ourselves are happy to live through. Responsibility, progress, attention from others, etc. invisible hands keep pushing us on our way, even when we know we're not on our own. "Living elsewhere", I used to think it was a slogan to encourage people to go to the wider world and make a difference. When I saw Jubeile release myself, and listened to the music map photo card carefully prepared by Carlisle, the words shone in my mind like a light and could not be shaken away. Ask yourself what you want, then look down to see what you get, there must be something waiting for us elsewhere.

The people we are looking for in this world are looking for us just as we are. Do not believe in love at first sight, but believe in "tacit understanding". Those who understand us, in whatever form they exist, will understand us from beginning to end, even if it's just an eye contact. This is love, which is higher than the primary category of attracting opposites, and higher than the three vulgarities of spirit and flesh. It's as simple as making a decision by chance. If Carlisle doesn't take the initiative to strike up a conversation, if Jubele doesn't make a phone call (of course, the scene of the relationship on the phone is also very nice), if you don't hold back the kiss and just touch each other's foreheads, this is just a rubbing shoulder and there will be no emotion Of course, if you kiss, it may turn into a love story of soul and flesh. I am happy because I believe that such love is real, and life is higher than movies.

If it wasn't this...it'd be someting eles...

someday, life elsewhere is where my life really begins.

  • Drew Baylor: I see you right there. I see you right there.

    Claire Colburn: There you are.

  • Drew Baylor: You know, there is nothing greater than deciding in your life that things maybe really are black and white! And this guy Ben, who clearly takes you for granted, who serially takes advantage of you, is bad! And what I'm saying is good! See what I mean? You shouldn't be the substitute for anybody. This guy should be right here, right now, doing this
