Love comes and goes, still strangers

The gentle man saw her with red hair in the flowing crowd. At the two ends of the zebra crossing, he was looking at the car and was about to pass through, but she actually followed his direction, she forgot the basic common sense, she and him were opposite, so they were opposite. So, a car hit her. He rushed forward, saw her dizzy for 10 seconds, and woke up with a brilliant smile. She said sweetly, Hi, Stranger.
A typical encounter, it looks very much like the legendary love at first sight. Every love begins with a stranger. This movie has a classic opening line: "Hey! Stranger!" Alice is innocent and beautiful, and needs a handsome and romantic love opponent, but the truth in her eyes, at least not including her own name.
Another pair, Anna and Larry's acquaintance, although a prank, are also complete strangers. Just because it was Anna's birthday, Larry bought her a beautiful dolphin balloon. Anna smiled childishly. That's how Anna and Larry started. Larry has a successful career and owns his own clinic.
Regardless of the beginning of the love, the ending of the love is absurd and very real. The love triangle finally led to the breakup of the two parties, but the couple who had been fornicating were unable to cut off the past and get married smoothly.
When Larry traded sex for his wife's freedom, the image of a successful man who had always been well-dressed was ruined. The importance of sex to this man, and what proportion of sex in love should be considered appropriate, is a question that no one can answer. Sex, at least in Larry and Anna's relationship, ended up being the weight. His deal with Anna was to the point, cruel and ruthless.
The scene of Larry and Alice in the nightclub is really pathetic. Active and passive, Party A and Party B in the transaction are so clearly distinguishable before the fact, and after a contest of sex and affection, it is no longer difficult to distinguish. Larry does this to ensure that Alice will leave Daniel. His deal with Alice was indulgent and ruthless.
Men like Larry are probably everywhere. Even if they are betrayed, they will fight back fiercely. He knows that his wife who is going to divorce has sexual obligations, and he will not sue him for rape in marriage. On the other hand, getting the girlfriend of a rival in love justifiably uses the means of sex trafficking. Even if such a man has N successful clinics, he is still not cute.
Danielle and Anna, the hesitant to match in this scene, both failed miserably after their own indecision. That's not how the game of love is played, and maybe the 73-year-old director just wanted to expose this in the fiasco of handsome men and beautiful women.
The Chinese translation is "stealing the heart", and the original text is simply "get closer". Obviously, the Chinese name is misleading, and there is no such cunning success story as someone who stole another's heart. A little closer, we generally do wish for our relationship with our lover. But maybe, love comes and goes, we are all just strangers. There is always a little thought, which is left to others to dig and use. Don't expect truth, and don't expect lies. After the movie, everyone is dumbfounded, and they really don't know how to love is the best! You see, we met strangers, we broke up with strangers, and we were alone again with strangers.
