Knowing this movie is because of Barbra Streisand's song of the same name, Barbra's accomplishments in music, musicals and screen are unmatched by ordinary people. This song is also the most romantic song in "Friends" in Rachel's opinion. , so I followed the footsteps and found this film shot in 1973.
This is a film set against the background of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union in the 20th century. Katie supports the left-wing trend of thought, she is hard-edged, and serves as the chairman of the Youth Political Party Alliance in school; Hubbell is mature and stable, loves sports and writing, and serves in the army. The sunshine is charming. The two of them separated and joined together. When they fell in love with each other, they shared a bed and slept together. Katie doesn't like his circle of friends. She thinks that such circle of friends is boring, and she vents her anger and dissatisfaction in front of her friends regardless of Hubbell's face, saying that she doesn't want to come at all. Such an often tit-for-tat love is doomed to part ways. Although Hubbell has tried several times to get out of this cycle and co-authored the script with her, even though the two have a testimony of love (daughter), it is inevitable to separate.
A love that is too strong on one side often leads to strangers, no matter what kind of "political correctness" there is, because the emotion itself lies in mutual attraction and mutual tolerance, rather than one party overriding the other, and it must be a rational one. A zero-sum game; it is not about one side being domineering and the other side constantly compromising. Even an elite intellectual like the one in the film can hardly get rid of such shackles. Different personalities determine different life trajectories. Love itself does not make both parties overcome their own obstacles, so it is only good for each other to part ways.
A few years later, on the streets of New York in the winter, the two reunited again, and they were speechless. Only a courtesy hug, he started a new life, and she was still alone, dedicated to doing political propaganda on the cold streets. Those past love and hate, in the cold wind, seem familiar.
