Afterthought: Who is pilot Christian's wife, does it matter? The original intention of Francois's stalking was probably to verify whether what Anna said was true (he lacked basic tolerance and trust in his girlfriend: when Anna was upset with Christian, he preferred to ask the other party to explain), but the focus was finally Offset to the relationship between the pilot and the short-haired woman. During the trail from the park to the coffee shop, Lucy (who looks down at François several times on the bus, intending to befriend him) speculates that the short-haired woman next to Christian is his wife, and that they are going to file for divorce (and Christie's Ann tells Ana that his wife is pregnant and that he must end the relationship with Ana). A male friend Anna met at the station after get off work said to her, "I heard you're getting married. I already know, it's a handsome pilot. I totally approve of you marrying him." The second rumor about the pilot's wife: Anna. At Anna's house, she points out to François that the woman on the right in the photo is the pilot's wife, and here's a third answer. As a result, the issue of "the pilot's wife" has become more and more complicated. In the series of events such as voyeurism, stalking, conjectures, and falsehoods, everyone has reservations: 25-year-old Anna has restrained her true feelings about breaking up with Christian; 20-year-old Francois has concealed the stalking, only Mentioned chatting up with Lucy; fifteen-year-old Lucy still gave Francois an address while she had a boyfriend (François accidentally saw Lucy kissing her boyfriend and decided to throw the postcard in the trash can. The action hinted that there was some kind of turbulence in him, but in the end he sent the postcard as if nothing had happened). Many unintentional peeps invoke deep suspicions that already exist, prompting meaningless, purposeless action. In the end, the cloud of suspicion seemed to dissipate, but everyone could not be relieved, unable to be honest with each other, and they were left alone in the hustle and bustle of Paris.

Wasn't the reason why Anna didn't want to explain the Christian incident at 7:00 in the same mood as François at the moment?

    Compared with the six moral stories, it is a leap in the author's conception. After removing the design sense of an ethical trap, the suspense of sliding is still maintained inside, but it is almost degenerated into a game, and it seamlessly drifts between three levels: the partial is the situation that is collided by chance, the middle scene is always Driven by the skeleton of a melodrama, new encounters and old entanglements flow from each character into a macroscopic, conservative, yet unverifiable love equation. At this point, Rohmer has finally gone from a secret game designer to an undisclosed polyphonic master.

    Drawing lessons from indoor dramas, the tit-for-tat plot is compact, but the story is downplayed, and various elements are quickly forgotten as the narrative progresses; the scenery is carefully selected, the circular park radiates and disperses, and the director uses documentary techniques (occasional situations, cut out shots) to make the director Hiding with the actors. When we watch the movie, we don't watch the character's moral speech (unlike other Rohmer films, even the male protagonist doesn't express it), or the Hitchcock-esque suspense (who is the wife?), we watch the ordinary boy's ordinary One day, caught in his fantasy and melancholy, experiencing his obsession, disappointment, entanglement (represented by his girlfriend), as well as chance, openness, and miss (represented by Luyu girl). These are two faces of the same dream, although they are very different in appearance, you can only replace the lack of reality with the occupation of the eyes: the love of youth is the modern version of fatalism.
