First of all, I don’t think it’s necessary to keep complaining about the unreasonable logic. This is an artist’s poem, not a scientist’s paper. If someone can really figure out the time, he won’t be making movies here, right? Well, this is a digression. , so far.
I don’t know if you have ever had a dream. In the dream, falling in love with a stranger is so real. The dream is as real as reality. When you wake up, you still can’t extricate yourself for a long time, and then the memory quickly disappears. You are in a trance in time and feel less. something. As Richard did at the end, he was soaked all over and his face was pale. Perhaps, we really went to a parallel world and truly fell in love with people. It's just that Richard's parallel world is the past.
His love with Alice left only a longing for Alice and the pocket watch, and the pocket watch was the starting point of everything Richard (before crossing) about Alice. When taking pictures, Alice was exposed because of Richard's appearance Come (don't know how to describe it, can't find the words) smile, and Richard, because of this kind of photo, can be said to fall in love, or feel fate. The two of them, everything was bound together by fate. My love originated from you, and your love originated from me, just like the question of which came first, the chicken or the egg. Time, fate, and love are intertwined. That love does not know why, but it is intertwined.
I don't know if you have thought about Richard and Arthur carefully. When Richard yearned for Alice, when he was eager to have Alice, his help came from Arthur, and Arthur seemed to have seen Richard from the beginning. When he was a child, his father did not have time to play with him. , and the ball, which is what he yearned for, was Richard, who helped him get the ball from the counter. It's like a causal cycle. Everything is surrounded by fate. This movie has a strong sense of fate from beginning to end, but who says fate? Just like that agent, long ago, I thought that Alice would fall madly in love with another man. He was like time to Alice, and God wanted her to be a great star. She was a great star and raised her, but she didn't. I'm afraid of Richard (traveling through time) who broke the rules. I think the director's positioning of him is God, or Richard and Alice's God. Everything he said from beginning to end has come true, and God is destined to let Alice Being a star is doomed that she can't get but can't get the love she wants forever, she doesn't get it, and Alice also said that he can always know the future, just like fate, you can't tell, the road is unclear, Never understand why, but it really happened.
It's also possible, but many years ago, someone who looked like Richard did what he experienced in his dream, and then Richard had this dream after being single for a long time, but no one could tell. It really goes through time, doesn't it?
