As a cinema movie, three hours of flat and straightforward narration is really boring, and it might make people drowsy in the cinema. But as a work, twelve years of follow-up has made it an epic. In the ending part, the boy and the girl are sitting on the mound and chatting awkwardly, but the director just doesn't say that the girl is the little Lolita who passed the comfort note many years ago. He just doesn't talk about this kind of important stalk, and he doesn't care if your audience is bored. This is his attitude. Very cool.
