The stories of the two versions are similar. In a lakeside cottage, when the female tenant left, she left a letter to the next tenant, apologizing for the dog's paw print on the floor in front of the door, "It was there before I came, and I haven't wiped it off. , I believe you will get used to those paw prints in some time.” At the same time, she left her new address, hoping that if there is a letter sent to her, she can help forward it. The next tenant is a lonely architect. His father is actually the builder of this house, and there are some misunderstandings between him and his son. His father left the house for his career. He did not see the paw prints and ignored the letter, until a stray wolf dog broke into his life and left those clear paw prints at the first meeting. Their story really began and they didn’t. Knowing that there was actually a gap of 2 years between each other. The mailbox in front of the house became their communication channel. Put it in here and take it out there. Although it was the same mailbox, it was more than 700 days apart.
I have no intention of comparing the two versions that are six years apart. Although the Korean version has "savage girlfriend" Jun Ji-hyun and "tough guy" Lee Jung-jae, I still choose the scene, the music, and the colors. "Lonely" performance by Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock released by Warner Bros.
In the golden autumn and snow-white winter, people's lives are not beautiful in the beautiful environment of nature. This cannot but make viewers feel infinite sympathy. Everyone who appears in the play is wrapped in an emotion called loneliness, which comes from not being able to express their inner feelings with those close to them. Between the brother Alex (played by Reeves) and his arrogant father, the deep love must be declared with death; Kate (played by Bullock) wanted to marry her after dating her ex-boyfriend for a week, and two years later, he was still that stranger. One kiss knocked over the jealousy. It cannot be said that he did not love Kate, but in the end he was not able to get it; the old colleague who often drank with Kate still clearly remembered the situation of her daughter running and wrestling in the muddy ground, but now her daughter But he is already in college; even Kate's mother, who had a beloved boy back then, finally married Kate's father... Everyone in the film lives in all kinds of loneliness. The withered yellow color indicates The desolate mood of late autumn.
Kate ends her internship and leaves her boyfriend, hoping to live in a different environment. She works as a doctor in a lively Chicago hospital and is isolated from the people around her, but she still seeks politics outside of her job, and deeply blames herself for failing to save a car accident victim. She left the original environment but missed the transparent lake house, the lake there, and the trees there. She often drove to the unoccupied cabin by herself and stopped. She was used to talking to Alex two years ago, and they found a common state of mind to understand each other that they had never seen in reality. They planned to meet, but Alex failed to arrive. Alex said: The people I love are far away from me! Kate said: The people I like are far away from me. Except for each other, the people we love don't even have such exchanges, and you are the only one who can't meet!
Kate asked Alex to find her lost gifts at the station two years ago; Alex attended Kate's birthday party two years ago and kissed her that night, with a deep love she didn't even know. Looking at their previous encounters and listening to the exchanges they know each other, I have been thinking, does this kind of story really happen in another time and space? They met at the wrong time back then. It was just the regret in their hearts that made them yearn for such a time-space disordered love, hoping to correct history and finally come together. Use fairy tales to relieve the hard-to-treat loneliness in reality.
A philosopher once said that loneliness is different from loneliness, loneliness can be cleaned up as long as there are others, and loneliness belongs to the heart, she is a kind of precious wealth. However, the accumulation of wealth will also crush people. We all desire to have a loved one who can tell all the troubles in our hearts, even if they are insignificant in the eyes of others.
When Kate realized that the car accident victim she failed to treat on Valentine's Day in 2006 might be Alex, she put the letterhead in the mailbox, and prayed silently against the mailbox, praying that Alex would not go to meet in 2006. The young people’s day appointment, don’t go, don’t go, don’t go...I thought she would never call Alex back, just as I saw Lee Jung-jae flying out with blood in his brain, but tilted my head and looked at the coffee shop with tears in my eyes. Like Quan Zhixian in here, the lover of different time and space will never be touched again!
Fortunately, the director couldn't bear to make our lonely broken heart completely desperate. The film gave us a beautiful ending. The fairy tale has a happy ending, and the prince and princess have a common life. Fortunately, we don’t need research anymore.
