It's not just about long distance relationships

Both movies I watched this Sunday were slow-paced. When a slow-paced long film encounters a distracted moviegoer, it is a lose-lose. However, a short romantic movie about two people like like crazy is still very comfortable.

The film is very delicate, and the discomfort and reluctance brought by the hero and heroine due to the distance of time and space are well rendered. I like the two episodes where the two were quarreling on the street because of their marriage visa rejection, and they were arguing at the heroine's house. They were well filmed and had a sense of familiarity. I don't know if it's right or not, I think those bumps and stumblings are the skeleton that supports a relationship. Without these, the relationship won't be stable and won't last. The sweet memory killing certainly makes people feel reluctant to part, but quarrels because of caring, and good relations because of caring will make the relationship deeper.

Glancing at the comments of the film, it seems that there is a problem of long-distance relationships, but I think it is a problem of cultural differences. It's not that the differences between British and American cultures are too great. There must be cultural differences between two people who grew up in different families, even if it is two people in the same city, unless their families have maintained a good relationship for a long time before they established a relationship. . Although falling in love or even getting married abroad, partners and families on both sides will keep a distance, but it is also indispensable to communicate with each other. Cultural differences are also reflected in work and circles of friends. When the male protagonist followed the female protagonist to see her friend, the male protagonist couldn't get in at all, and he didn't seem to understand much, so he could only drink in a boring way. In the end, when the heroine returned to LA, it was difficult to find a job again. It was difficult to find a job that she liked and did well as the original one.

The problems of the two of them are exacerbated by the fact that the countries are different and the distance is too far. Fortunately, the female lead's family also likes the male lead, and it is a relatively open-minded family. But the film also doesn't involve too many relationships between families, which would be too complicated. Every time during the Chinese New Year, my brother brings my sister-in-law home, and my sister brings my brother-in-law home. Everyone will take care of my sister-in-law and brother-in-law. These cares are actually from strangers. There are no shortcuts to integrating into another family, only time can bridge the cultural gap in between.

Originally, the relationship is to take time and thought to manage slowly. My best friend who is about to confirm the relationship told me that it is tiring and time-consuming to fall in love. She hasn't even started talking about it yet! But she finally said it was worth it. I hope she can meet the right person this time, and it will be even better if she succeeds~
