I came to see the movie with this name in mind. There is not much attractive in the opening shot of the film, there are only gray and white pictures and low and sad music.
Like many European and American films I have watched in the past, there was a stage where I didn't quite understand it at first, but since I had already decided to watch it, I watched it patiently with the attitude of "existence is worth". The entire film lasts nearly two hours. After watching it, my heart was not deeply touched, and it was not as good-looking as I expected when I saw the title of the film, but there was still something moving and thought-provoking in it.
The male protagonist Walt in the film is running around in the case of his sister's murder regardless of his status because of his love for his sister. For this reason, he gave up his pride and self-esteem, and came to another city to bear the pressure from all sides. Because of his sister's case, he met an important woman in his life - Linda. The arrangement of fate brought these two poor people who were busy with their relatives' cases together. They encouraged and supported each other, and finally found a sense of love for each other. Linda, a beautiful middle-aged woman, was under more pressure than Walter, dragging her son, Clay, who was born with mental retardation, to support her life alone. The many inconveniences and various pressures in life did not overwhelm her, and she pinned everything in her heart in her essays. When she saw that man Walt accidentally opened her picture book, after she took Walt to two weddings, she fell in love, fell in love with this man younger than her, and was willing to share her heart with him all of.
Walt also repaid Linda and her mentally retarded son Clay with deep love, and took him to practice wrestling so that Clay could find his worth. However, this stable and harmonious situation did not last long. With the final judgment of Sister Walter's case, this peaceful situation was broken. Walter couldn't bear the result of the sentencing, but he had no choice but to leave the city that did not belong to him. restart. But that meant he was leaving Linda and Clay, who loved him dearly. How will the ending develop, are they really doomed to be separated like this, who love each other deeply? To this end, Linda's son Clay did not compromise, and he took the only pistol left by his father and pointed it at the culprit who was previously believed to have killed Walter's sister. Out of love for his mother and maintenance of his mother's happy life, Clay chose such a way to do something for Walt. In the end, however, it was Walt who stood in his way, because Walt knew that no one innocent person could ever make a mistake or get hurt. But the development of things did not go according to people's wishes. This is how Walt's mother and little niece support their lives, and how does Linda face huge changes?
A few warm scenes at the end of the film explain all this well to the audience. Walt's mother danced hand in hand with his little niece, Linda had a conversation with his son in the prison through the glass window, Linda was sitting quietly in front of the window at home smoking a cigarette, there was still a man dressed in yellow on the street. The lively figures in chick-style clothes are distributing flyers and attracting customers... Although the figure on the street is no longer Walt, although Linda's loneliness and sadness in front of the window cannot be felt by others, although Linda and her son have been together for a long time. The separation will make this originally broken family suffer more. Although it is difficult for Mother Walter to smile in front of the little girl after experiencing the grief of losing two children, the dead are gone, and the living have to work hard. Forward. Although the protagonist of the good life is no longer there, he continues to influence Linda and others, and his love is enough to support them in the future. Perhaps, as the title says, this is the "true love effect". All the people in the film come together because of true love and are separated because of love. But true love will always be there, whether they are separated or not. With this love, life can go on...
