If there is no tomorrow.

Frankly speaking, the motive for watching this film is not simply to be moved by its special name, but to be moved by the man K who likes this film.

To be honest, K is a very important person to me.


I was busy with my study life, so I downloaded the movie to Ipod and chose a quiet sunny afternoon to watch it in the classroom.

I don't know if it was because of the environment or something else, but I didn't shed tears. Even though my nose was sore at every juncture, the tears still didn't fall. I think, if I hadn't seen the generalization of the movie before, I wouldn't be so cold-blooded as a rational bystander.

When looking at the sweet and heartwarming scene at the beginning and then thinking about the pathos at the end, it feels awful.

The film is only an hour and a half, but the plot is very appropriate and complete. It seems that there is no gap to let people breathe freely. From the sadness in a dream, to the moment of waking up from the dream, it immediately arouses the hearts of the audience. Looking at the familiar pictures, I think I can understand the anxiety and unease in Ian's heart.

Such emotions made him make such a decision. It seems that the ending has been known from the beginning, but it is cloudy and foggy again. Ian learned how to love at the end of his life, something Samantha taught him, and he reciprocated with life and love.

In the cabin, when Ian asked Samantha how she would be if it was her last day. Of course, Ian got the answer that all viewers expected. Even so, Samantha's persistent eyes still make people want to cry.

In the restaurant, the bracelet Ian gave Samantha made her eyes red. There are no gorgeous and detailed carvings, but there is a deep love, the romance and love that every woman is born to long for.

Outside the restaurant, Ian said to Samantha the most and last words of his life. Samantha would not have thought that he and the beloved man in front of him were about to be separated by yin and yang. There was even a moment when she thought of the way she wore a white dress with Ian's sweet hand at the wedding, or heard the cry of their first baby.

Everything was so beautiful before.

And that Taxi Driver seems to have destroyed everything.

Maybe the editor deliberately made him a character similar to "Ye Wang" (sorry for using such a sinicized and inelegant word), but without him, the estrangement between Ian and Samantha may never disappear.

Those who are tied together in pain but separated in their hearts are more affectionate than those whose hearts are together but are separated from each other.

Love extends in the pain of missing, it should be like this.

To be honest, when I first watched it, I had an urge to naively ask K why they had to get on that taxi and why Ian didn't find a reason to stay in the restaurant until after 11 o'clock before leaving.

However, when the message was sent out, there were only those few words.

I really wanted to cherish you.

If there is no tomorrow, then everything today will be content with me.

    The heroine with a beautiful smile. Love is most afraid of missing the expression.

    Please make me embarrassed

If Only quotes

  • Ian Wyndham: Close your eyes. Happy graduation.

    Samantha Andrews: Oh my God.

    Ian Wyndham: Some of the charms are old and some are new. That's a musical note, a violin. This one is a flower, what is no sense of matter at all, except it was exquisite much like yourself. Let's see... the train that we took today. And... that's the Eiffel Tower that you've always wanted to see. And... this frying pan, cause you are the only person that I know that can actually do the flipping thing. And... this one's a heart... my heart... it's yours now.

  • Ian Wyndham: I guess what I'm trying to say is... I want to soldier on. I really do. Okay?

    Samantha Andrews: No.

    Ian Wyndham: No what?

    Samantha Andrews: I don't... want to soldier on.

    Samantha Andrews: Ian, if I were to stay in London now, it would be for you. For us. And I would do that in a heartbeat if I knew we were really special.

    Ian Wyndham: We are.

    Samantha Andrews: Really? You never tell me how you feel or talk about yourself. You don't want to meet my family. You forgot my graduation. We run into my favorite student and you act as if he has something contagious.

    Samantha Andrews: Ian, I know you have the best intentions, but I feel like I'm a really high second priority to you. That hurts. And the worst part is I'm starting to get used to it.

    Ian Wyndham: I don't understand.

    Samantha Andrews: I know. That's what kills me.

    Samantha Andrews: If there had just been one day Ian, one day where nothing else matters but us.

    Ian Wyndham: I adore you.

    Samantha Andrews: I don't want to be adored, I want to be loved.

    Samantha Andrews: I can't do this anymore.
