Three lines are enough to describe a love affair

There are two kinds of movies that I am very fond of, one is a movie that describes an emotion well, and the other is a movie that writes a good essay. Writing a good paper is not about how complex its narrative structure is, but what comes after the story. It is not how much connotation it has to describe an emotion, but the resonance of the story it describes.

Whether it is 5 centimeters per second or the Garden of Words, what is described is a phenomenon, an emotion, not how complicated the truth is hoped to be written through a story. Whether it is loneliness or loneliness, it can be said that Makoto Shinkai knows how to express this emotion. In the loneliness of love, the kind of expectation and waiting that belongs only to oneself, cannot be shared with others, and it is not a love story between lovers. This kind of personal affection does not need how deep the story or how connotative the plot. No need for a complex, sprawling narrative and constructing a monster-like world.

To write a love story, three lines are enough.

Looking at this movie that can be watched after escaping half a class with such a mentality, I think it is also an excellent love memory.

As for some technical comments and improvements, it's not that people in the industry don't make comments rashly.

    As always refined and bright, chasing the equivalent small universe in the spiritual world in the minutiae. The story itself is still narcissistic and self-willed and unspeakable, but it does not detract from the beauty of the picture and the extravagance of details. The film cannot be placed in a large environment to seek philosophical or logical perfection. The saturation of emotions is its ultimate meaning. The color dialogue monologues of the pictures are all based on this axis.
