love him, don't do it

Around this time last year, Kate and I went for a late-night snack after class and then walked down the dimly lit streets of the West Village in the warm spring breeze of New York, talking about her coming back and the future. She recommended this movie to me because she knew it was a long-distance relationship and wanted me to experience it. It was only after a year that I had the courage to watch this movie, and I have to say that long-distance lovers should be careful. In addition to regretting the relationship between Anna and Jacob, I also thought about the reasons why the two ended up causing such an embarrassing outcome. Why is all this wrong?
At the beginning of the film, I think it was Jacob who was actively pursued by Anna. The two happily spent a sweet day when the young couple first met with passion and sparks. It was so sweet that Anna was like water in her head to spend more time with Jacob. Completely ignore the risk of visa expiry in a few days. As an international student, I was really slapped by the heroine when I saw this. Sure enough, women in love have low IQs, and they only care about enjoying what they see in front of them, without thinking about how to develop sustainably. As a result, I thought it had nothing to do but was refused entry by the customs, and this main factor throughout the play caused the two to be in different places for several years. This is Anna's first time, but it won't be her last.
In the middle, the two met intermittently and separated, and then met and separated again. In the first days of separation, the feelings are still there, and I will always think of each other, and I will want to go back to the past. Slowly, the two have their own lives and friends, and the intersection between them is getting smaller and smaller. Later, they each had a new love. It was at this time that, for some unknown reason, Anna proposed to get married. As a result, I found out that Jacob was in love, and when he questioned him, he didn't let people yell at her. When asked if he also had a new love, he could only be silent. This is the second game.
After the immigration office finally notified Anna that the visa ban was lifted, the two abandoned their new love and were ready to continue the happiness they "persisted" for several years, even if it broke people's hearts, even if they They are wondering if they still love each other. But when I saw Anna and Jacob leaning on each other's shoulders in the bathroom, each with their own minds flashing back their happy memories, I knew they couldn't go back.
Anna was wrong, she was always doing it; Jacob was also wrong, he wasn't really that committed, he couldn't let himself go, he hesitated. Long-distance relationships are difficult, and I don’t know how many people’s love has been lost to time and distance. I want to say that when you meet someone you think is good, you should cherish it, and you should treat each other seriously, and don't do it based on the love of others.
About the movie, I want to be honest. . . A little hypocritical. It's the kind of trying to be small and fresh, but it's a bit deliberate in my opinion. However, the director is very good at grasping the feeling of a long-distance relationship. The kind of memory that is made into a memorial book. When you see an intimate couple outside alone, you will be saddened. When you meet again, you find that the memories are flashing back, but we will never go back to the past. Wait for some The small details are very well done, and it is worth seeing.
