Some meet, some miss. . .

After watching the film,

I still don't know what to do, so I went back and recorded some touching points: 1. Get off the bus with me
J: What's your name?
C: My name? It's Jesse...It's James, actually, but everybody calls me Jesse.
J : You mean, Jesse James, no?
C: No, just Jesse.
J: I'm Celine. After
Celine got off the bus with Jesse, he remembered to exchange names.
In other words, Celine didn't know the man's name, so he got off the train with him.
It seems that although the conversation on the train was not long, mutual trust has been initially established and a little spark has been wiped out.

2. the horns of Wilmington's Cow
haha, the Germans are very interesting. I
thought there would be a related plot behind this episode, but in the end, there was basically no other concern except for the last sentence. Accident!

3. Truth or Dare on the Bus I
don't know which genius invented this game, it really is one of the killers for improving understanding!
btw:
The acting skills of the two people in this scene on the bus are simply too good.
I usually pay special attention to this kind of long shot when watching a movie, but this time I didn't realize what a great long shot it was just now until they got out of the car!
The two of them chatted casually like that. The audience, like me, seemed to be on the bus, watching them chat with great interest, and didn't even notice that it was a performance.
After watching the film, I deliberately went back and re-watched this section, and found that the lines in this scene are extremely informative. I can't imagine that these lines are memorized. How can the memorized lines be interpreted so naturally and without flaws?

4. The audition room of the audio-visual store
This is my favorite scene in this film: the
two of them listen to the song while pretending to be nothing to do with each other peeking at each other. .
This piece of music is also very good.
PS:
From now on, I decided not to discuss acting skills, because I found that in this film, discussing acting skills is completely redundant:
everything is so invisible, only when you look back can you admire their superb acting skills .
In the process of watching the movie, some are just knowing smiles, as well as moving and warm.

5. The debate about men and women
You come and go, and it is very interesting to explain the differences and relationships between men and women.
Fighting and fighting, both sides found that their positions were different, and it was difficult for one to convince the other. In the end, they had to give up. At the same time, they concluded an eternal truth:
C: Men, women, it's...There's no end to this.It's like...
J: It's like a skipping record.
C: yeah.
J: Every couple's been having this conversation forever.
C: And nobody came up with anything.
There needs to be proper "little fights" between men and women, and the occasional "pinpoint" To Maimang", but to improve understanding and increase interest.
But at the same time, you also need to grasp the degree to know when to stop, otherwise you will hurt your feelings needlessly.

6. After the birth dance, the conversation between the two sitting on the bench was very impressive.
At this time, the two have completely opened their hearts, and the topics of discussion have become more and more in-depth: life, career, love
What struck me the most was a quote from Celine:
You know, I believe if there's any kind of God...
it wouldn't be in any of us, not you or me...
but just this little space in between.
If there's any kind of magic in this world...
it must be in the attempt of understanding someone, sharing something.
...
I know it's almost impossible to succeed...but...
who cares ,really?
The answer must be in the attempt. After

this sentence was finished, the two pondered for a long time, then smiled at each other.
Another deep resonance!

7.
Think about the phone-calling game in the restaurant. Two people who were originally strangers had just been in contact for a few hours, so they would always have reservations no matter what.
What did the other party think? How do you see yourself in the eyes of others? What I did just now was a little stupid, will it make the other party misunderstand?
The problems that these first-timers will encounter are easily resolved by the two smart protagonists through this small game. The
two revealed their feelings through the game. At this point, all suspicions have disappeared, and the obstacles have basically been cleared!

Of course, at this moment, there is a question that neither side has brought up, nor is it willing to bring it up.

8. After tomorrow, we won't see each other again
This part of the cruise ship is very tangled!
The topic that he didn't want to be brought up was finally brought up by Jesse
who couldn't help it.
This fact brought the two sides into a conflicting situation.
After the entanglement, the two finally held their hands tightly together - let's say goodbye in advance!
Enjoy the night, the last night, the only night.
See you again after tomorrow!

9. Overturned
red wine, grass, quiet night, one after another cricket crickets.
A pair of lovers are lying on the grass, looking at the moon and complaining to each other, their emotions are slowly fermenting like red wine. . .
The long wait of the judges is finally not in vain!

10. MISSED?
The years shall run like rabbits... It's
dawn, two people who are about to return from fairy tales to reality, sitting on the square in the early morning, the boy is reciting
Dylan Thomas' poem, the girl is lying in the boy's arms, the two are in trouble Hard to tell. The girl is still showing love, the boy is holding back:
J: Hey, guess what.
C: what?
J: We didn't go to those guys' play.
C: Play?
J: yeah.
C: The cow?
J: yeah.
C: Oh, yeah, we didn't.
...
Oh, no , we missed it.

The girl's intentional or unintentional words seemed to mark the ending of this encounter.
The two were instantly speechless.

11.
The music at the end of THE END is very good, the camera is also very good, sad and fresh.
On such an early morning, the scenic spots that the two of them lingered on last night were still empty at this time. . .
However, after a while, the number of people here will gradually increase, the
sun rises and sets, and
these ordinary scenes witness how many men and women
, some of them meet and some miss. . .

Before Sunrise quotes

  • Jesse: Sometimes I dream about being a good father and a good husband. And sometimes it feels really close. But then other times it seems silly like it would ruin my whole life. And it's not just a fear of commitment or that I'm incapable of caring or loving because... I can. It's just that, if I'm totally honest with myself I think I'd rather die knowing that I was really good at something. That I had excelled in some way than that I'd just been in a nice, caring relationship.

  • Celine: I like to feel his eyes on me when I look away.
