Wong Kar Wai 1990
Who treats whom is good and bad; what is like and what is dislike; what is important and what is not important; what should be remembered and what should not be remembered living thing?
Afei treats Su Lizhen badly, but he persuades her to leave him, because he knows that with him, she will not be happy. Before he died, he remembered what he had said to her at 3:00 pm on April 16.
Mimi treats Ah Fei well and proposes to keep him, but Ah Fei shuts the door.
Ah Fei's adoptive mother treated him badly. She raised him for money, and was unwilling to tell him the news of his biological mother, but when he was about to leave, he was reluctant to part with him and told him that he did this to protect him, because his biological mother didn't want him.
The police were kind to Su Lizhen, but they failed to make any sign of it. After a long time, they missed the belated call.
Ah Fei is not good to everyone, but he finds an excuse to do so: his adoptive mother doesn't tell him about his biological mother. No matter how strong the character is, everyone needs to have a set of logic that can justify their own behavior.
"Sixteenth, April sixteenth. April sixteenth, 1960, one minute before three o'clock in the afternoon. You and I will remember this minute because of you. From now on we are one Minute friend, this is a fact, you can't change it, because it has passed."
Only the past is worth remembering.
