Live in the moment, love in the moment.

A low-budget romantic film. The combination of shy big boy + punk-style Yujie has a high insurance factor, and the routine is very common: "Love at first sight-Yin and Yang's mistake-a hundred turns and a thousand times-everyone is happy-HAPPY ENDING." The overall style is a bit similar to 2011. One Day feel. But fortunately, they didn't miss each other in the end...

Several scenes in the film were well arranged. The playfulness of Chinese restaurants is not exempt, but it affects people's hearts. That time we drove together, and then... "Parking Zuo Loves Fenglin Evening", in the witness of a bright moon, they embraced and took large-scale nude photos... This scene was really too romantic and unrestrained!

But I still prefer another scene in the movie: when the bell of the zero o'clock festivities rings, everyone around is happy. She stood helplessly in the crowd, with nowhere to hide, no branch to rely on. Suddenly, a pair of strong hands pulled her tightly into her arms. At this moment, the world seemed to exist only between the two of them. They didn't need to think about anything, just kiss and hug, accept and possess.

After all, a movie is a movie. It's a miracle that the two of them went around in circles seven years later, and the people around them changed one after another, but they were able to come together in the end. Is it a miracle?
Life is always crueler than movies. In the movie, those regrets in life are just so trivial to be replaced by a shot or a line of small words. But despite this, the movie does give us the imagination to fill in the regrets of real life.

In fact, if two people come out of the bathroom on the plane, hold each other's hands tightly and walk all the way, it will be a lot of trouble! Come to think of it, we can still enjoy those imperfect lives, but we must seize those fleeting people and touches. There are flowers that can be folded straight and must be folded, don't wait until there are no flowers to break the branches. Live in the moment, love in the moment. (Oh, I love those black and white photo stickers at the end, very lifelike.)
