SLIDING DOORS

. . . . . .

(The author deletes a few hundred words here.)


In my impression, "Blind Hits" and "Lola Run" are all three-paragraph narratives, but "Sliding Door" is a parallel deconstructed narrative. Like a small sliding door, it is the starting point of two different life encounters.


We often miss a lot of things, we never take it to heart, maybe the known opportunity is your most insignificant choice, and if you miss a small door, you may never be able to enter the world on the other side. If you're lucky, like Helen in "The Sliding Door", you can retrieve the door from the starting point and choose it again. But real life is hard to say.

    # Dance Movie# I wanted to watch this movie a long, long time ago, and today I finally realized my dream. I like it very much, even if it is a 98 movie.

    Little Pepper is so cute~ The plot seems a bit old-fashioned today after more than ten years, but Aunt Blake in CM is a pleasant surprise. The ending song is actually a song often used in a foreign food show that I particularly liked before. It is a conditioned reflex. When I listen to it, I think of the chef's fried cod, boiled asparagus, grilled puffs, grilled apricot pie and topped with apple cider vinegar syrup (¯﹃¯) )
