BAD TIMING is a far cry

Mitina and Dr. Linton fell in love at first sight at a prom. Mitina is beautiful and sexy. Linton enjoys a high reputation in the psychological academia. Mitina concealed the fact that she was married, and Linton found out that she had deceived him, so that she did not trust her in love. Since then, the two people have continued to misunderstand and contradict, and eventually lead to a break between the two. Mitina threatened to commit suicide, trying to arouse Linton's compassion and save the love between the two. But when she took the medicine and called him "goodbye", he knew that she was dying but delayed the time to see her and send her to the hospital. After she was rescued, she was a stranger to him.

The reason why I chose this film from dozens of DVDs is the theme of "sex", which verifies the quasi truth of "sex is as fierce as a tiger". However, when I watched the film, I discovered that the film was not about "Mitina has a strong sexual desire and a good drink. She used to have sex with many people and couldn't help herself out of the abyss of sexual desire. Later, she ran into the suave Dr. Linton. A lingering history of sexual desire unfolded between them...". A girl who suffered from repeated family setbacks in her teenage years was sunny and happy on the surface but melancholy in her heart. She loved Linton and had sex with him, but she hoped to have more spiritual exchanges with him. The irony is: Linton is a psychiatrist, but he does not understand her psychology at all. He is always suspicious of her love, unwilling to meet her "soul communication" requirements, and let her satisfy her own needs. The requirement of "physical communication", when she was dying, his perverted psychology was already prominent, his possessiveness, his sexuality, and his love for her were mixed together when he reached a climax in her dying body .
At the beginning, the director used a flashback technique to put the result of the story in front of the audience, whipping up the audience's appetite, and then crossed the present and the past on the screen. The sex scenes in the film appeared many times, but each scene was short and not explicit, as if it was just to confess to the audience that "this time they have sex". "BAD TIMING" is incorrectly translated as "sexual coma" either literally or in the content of the film. Literally, "BAD TIMING" means "wrong timing", and from the point of view of the theme of the film (mentioned earlier), it should mean that the hearts of the two who are in love are out of sync, the track of their hearts Inconsistent, the distance is very far, so I think it might be translated into "far apart", which means the above theme.
